Aaron was sprawled across his couch in complete and absolute fucking boredom. Fluke, Evanz and Josh were all over to play Beyond two souls but while they waited for the stupid fucking updates to install Josh had decided he needed something to drink and the others felt the need to follow him into the kitchen for various bullshit reasons. The only reason he wasn't suspecting a prank was he knew Josh and Evanz sucked at teaming up for just about anything and Fluke would have none of their shit.
Once the big black monster finally belched its completion of the installation Aaron picked up the controller and called out to the others in the kitchen that the game was ready. He didnt hear anything from the others, just their continued muttering about something fucking stupid. He couldn't quite make it out but Josh sounded very upset and that pissed Aaron off a bit. He was very protective of his little lizard loving friend.
Yeah shmatlzy right? Getting the hots for your hetero best friend? It sounded like the story to some crappy gay coming of age film, and he is not gay.
No hes not defensive, he just really isn't gay, he'd been reading up on it and his best bet was that he was something called pansexual. Meaning he was attracted to a persons personality first and foremost. Josh's personality i know right? Well he couldn't explain it really there was just something to love about his personality. His zest for life, his humor, his "sasy behaviour'' and just....something he couldn't quite pin down.
Shaking his head in an attempt to get his thoughts back on track Aaron got up and made his way into the kitchen to see his friends around a very red faced Josh. Furrowing his brow Aaron spoke up, though a bit firmer than he meant to. "Oi what's going on?"
Evanz and Fluke shared a look before nudging Josh forward. Upon closer inspection he found that Josh was red in the face, shaking hands balled up in fists at his sides and for some reason his eyes were watering. He was about to talk but Aaron cut him off draping his arm across his shoulders, pulling him to his chest as he glared at his friends. "The fuck happened?" he snapped.
Josh doesn't just randomly get this upset over nothing, what the hell? Sure they bickered a lot and teased Josh but there is only so far they should freaking take it. He opened his mouth to speak up again since his friends were staying silent, but Josh stopped him by pulling on his shirt sleeve. Letting the young gamer step out of his arms he looked his friend up and down in confusion as he seemed to be gathering courage to do something.
"Aaron....you and I have b-ben best friends for a really long time" Joshs voice was shaky and clearly scared, so Aaron kept quiet for fear of making his friend having to repeat himself. "And I know you're a pansexual even though I know i'm no prize but..." taking a deep breath he looked at his friend sheepishly, a soft look that Aaron both thought was cute and out of character. "I was hoping you could give me a chance? I love you aaron. Youre sexy, smart, cool, funny. fun and just...amazing'' he got quieter with each compliment "I w-ww-want to be yours. Your boyfriend, best friend i..." he was spiraling into rambling a was his trademark but this time it seemed to be pissing him off.
Aaron was barely paying attention as his mind had just completely shut down after hearing just the first part of his confession.
when a synapse in his brain finally went off, reminding him that hey yo attractive best friend here saying he wants to be your lover. VIDEOGAMES FOR A JOB AND SEX WITH YOUR BEST FRIEND DO YOU NEED AND ANGEL TO DROP KICK YOU IN THE HEAD KISS HIM YOU FUCKING IDIOT
finally listening to his brain Aaron pounced and pinned Josh against the counter kissing his friend hard, holding his cheek with one hand and his hip with the other. After Aaron pulled away for air with a smile on his face the smaller man smiled sheepishly at him.
"Fluke and Evanzz are playing without us"
Aaron looked over his shoulder, and indeed his friends were no longer there, before looking back at his new boyfriend. Eyes glossy, glasses crooked, cheeks pink and lips slightly puffed and shiny.
"I could not care less if I made a consious effort to" he said before leaning in for another kiss.
