TO PUT IT BLUNTLY, fox is cheating. and not the innocent kind, no, not the i’m-losing-this-board-game-so-fuck-it kind. fox is cheating, and it’s on a person: someone he’s been dating for a few months. but ... he’s seemingly not at all worried or guilty about what he’s decided to do behind their back with this guy named elijah ; always searching for added thrills in his life, anyhow.
it could be your fault, he tells elijah jokingly sometimes, you’re too pretty to resist.
now, it’s a few minutes after midnight and he’s with the younger, and they just hooked up – and fox is about to leave. he’s kind of lingering longer than usual, though, sheet draped across him as he sits at the edge of elijah’s bed. finds himself wanting to stay. fox sighs and drags a large hand over his face.
❛ look, would you mind if i crashed here ? m’too tired to drive back, ❜ he fibs, voice muffled. he’s not that tired but, for some reason, he doesn’t just want to downright ask elijah if he can spend the night with him. maybe it’s because they don’t go that far, usually. lifting the hand from his face, fox glances over at him in anticipation.
