The 5 first dates but not dates of Jules and Logan as narrated by Derek Seigerson.
The First One.
“Look, he should be coming in the next ten minutes! Do something!” cried Logan as he straightened the cushions for the thousandth time. Why do we even have cushions in all boy’s common room, thought Derek as he watched his friend run amok.
“Logan, did you get cushions especially for Julian, you do know he lives here as well right...”
“I just want to do something for him.” said Logan wringing his hands as Derek stared at him. He had never seen his best friend in a state like this before. “- And no, the cushions are from the hall cupboard, didn’t even know we owned them, just thought it looked pretty, now be quick I can see him coming.”
Saying this he walked to the front door and opened it before Julian did. “Hi” Logan breathed out as Julian looked surprised at him. “We missed you, I mean how are you?”
“Logan” Julian greeted wearily as Logan took his bag from him. “We got this Carmen.” Derek said as he stood behind Logan, smiling at Julian’s agent.
“Come in, coffee is waiting.” Logan said shutting the door, cutting Carmen off before she even got a word in.
“Coffee.” Julian stuttered not used to Logan’s fussing, “what – what are. Since when do you greet me with coffee?”
“And it’s the best kind, your favorite brand, not the usual swill that is found here. Princess here ordered it especially for you, express delivery and everything.” Derek piped, smirking at Logan who was looking at Julian.
“Well, what’s the use of having a Senator for a father if I can’t get any of the perks?” asked Logan as he gave a Julian his cup of coffee and then proceeded to pick his own.
“Where’s mine?” asked Derek amused. “You can make one for yourself.” quipped Logan as Julian smiled and took a sip.
The Second One.
“And a picnic on the school grounds is your idea of a relaxing weekend. Seriously, this coming from you? Where is the Logan I know and what have you done with him?” remarked Julian as he sat down on the grass in front of his friend.
“At least he did not break out the picnic mat and picnic basket.” laughed Derek as he sat down next to Logan.
“It’s not a picnic. It’s just lunch.” mumbled Logan as he handed Julian a sandwich, chips and a soda.
“That you made.” retorted Derek as he rifled through the assembled chips and drinks and picked up a sandwich, which was immediately snatched away by Logan.
“Hey!” exclaimed Derek.
“That’s mine” replied Logan as he took a bite of the sandwich.
“Then where’s mine” replied Derek moping at them as Julian laughed.
“You don’t get any” smirked Logan and Derek threw a chips packet on him.
The Third One
“Haven has a concert this weekend.” Logan said, pretending to be busy in homework while Julian finished an essay for Murdoch.
“Hmm. I know” replied Julian as he cross-checked a reference, before typing it out on his laptop.
“Wanna go then?” Logan asked nonchalantly as he pretended to read something, while Derek just silently laughed at his antics.
“It’s a Wednesday, the concert is on Saturday, Lo. Do you even have tickets?” Julian said pausing his typing to look at his friend,” Do you even like Haven?”
“It’s also in California.” smirked Derek, “How do you plan to get there?”
“I have my ways.” Logan smiled and passed two tickets to Jules, who laughed and took them.
“Where’s mine?” Derek asked playfully, all while knowing that he was never going to be invited.
“You have match.” Logan said grinning at him.
The Fourth One
“I wanted to eat Italian” Logan said again, as he parked the car outside Breadsticks.
“And you think Breadsticks is the answer.” Julian muttered from the passenger seat, “Also where’s D, you did tell him to meet us here right?”
“Absolutely!” Logan said graciously “He’s running late.” knowing fully well that Derek was told to stay back in the dorm.
“Come, our reservation is for Six.” Logan said getting out of the car.
The Fifth One.
In the pouring Ohio rain they sit together, quietly, side by side, as the heavens break loose on them. Derek watches over them from inside.
Dalton Big Bang 2020
Prompt: Stuart Trio and Sebastian Smythe loving.
Rating: NC17 + NSFW
“I bet it would be hot if we did it together.” Sebastian thought as he watched Derek and Julian wash the sand off their bodies. The setting sun creating a perfect backdrop for the two pretty brunets as they washed themselves clean; hands rubbing over chiselled chests and washboards abs as they teased and playfully flicked water on each other.
Julian noticed Sebastian watching them and nudged Derek, who saucily winked back at his boyfriend, rubbing his hands with a bit more determination now that he knew he had an audience. His thumb got caught on his peaking nipple and Sebastian groaned
“Hmm.” Logan mumbled sleepily, “What’s that you said.”
“Imagine you, me, the princess and D, all together.”
“But aren’t we all.” laughed Julian who caught trail end of the conversation. “Together I mean, on this vacation.” He threw is himself on his boyfriend who yelped when he came in contact with Julian’s wet body, but still, Logan pulled Julian close to him and nuzzled sleepily into his hair. Julian smiled and kissed him on the cheek.
“Sounds interesting actually.” Derek said and kissed Sebastian’s bare shoulder.
“I knew I liked you for a reason.” Sebastian smirked and Derek kissed him deeply. “Ask the princess and the prima donna later." he whispered in between kisses, "Don’t let them fool you, they’ll be definitely up for it.”
*
“So what do you guys think?” Sebastian asked again as the four friends walked hand in hand down the street after a late dinner.
"About what?" Logan asked swinging Julian's and Derek's hand in tandem.
“About us, together." Sebastian asked carefully, "Doing it, together.” with special emphasis on his wordings as he knew it wouldn't work if everyone wasn't down with it or uncomfortable.
“You mean a foursome” Logan asked interested, stopping to look at Julian and then at Derek and then Sebastian. “Well, we haven’t discussed it." he looked at Julian again who was now watching the other boys intently, with an intrigued look on his face, "It hasn’t even crossed our minds.”
"It would be interesting to say the least." Julian smirked. “Well.” he looked at his boyfriend and his two best friends. “I mean, if there ever is a time I would be interested in a foursome, it would be with you guys.
“You would.” Derek asked, slowly getting turned on with the conversation they were having.
Julian nodded. “I trust you and I know that we are all clean."
“There's that." Logan told him kissing him on the cheek "And we love you too.” Derek beamed and sloppily kissed Julian on the other cheek.
“So, how would it work?’ Derek asked looking at Sebastian, who was their informal sex guru, though Logan & Julian both maintained that they didn't need him as they were perfectly capable on their own thank you very much, Derek normally was too blissed-out or turned on to confirm the same.
Sebastian though, was still catching up to the conversation that was happening around him. “Foursome.” he mouthed intrigued, picturing all of them naked, sweaty and in various positions. “We would need some serious logistics planning. "But" he looked at best friends who were now very interested in what he had to say, "I was thinking of something bit more vanilla, for our first foray. We could step it up, if, when we want it."
“Like what.” Derek said inching closer to his boyfriend, running a finger down Sebastian’s bare arm, who shivered at the sensation. “Like getting off together.”
And all three boys looked intrigued.
*
“So how does this work.” Logan asked as he pulled Julian close to him.
“Anyway you want I suppose.” Sebastian said as he watched the two of them together. “You do your thing, we’ll do ours and if anybody wants to sneak a peek.” he grinned, “That’s fine as well, as long as we are comfortable getting off together in the same room.”
“I bet I can make Julian come first before you can make Derek.” Logan smirked and Sebastian shivered in anticipation.
“You’re on.”
*
“Dear God, look at them.” Derek groaned as he watched Julian ride Logan on the sofa.
“I know right.” Sebastian said as he stood behind Derek, watching the couple: Julian’s lithe body all stretched out as he pleasured himself, rocking himself on Logan’s cock. Logan kissing him everywhere he could reach, his nose, his face, his cheeks, and his shoulder.
“We should get on with.” Derek groaned as Sebastian’s slowly wandering hand found his dick and squeezed. ”Let me eat you.”
*
“Fuck, look at that.” Logan groaned as he watched the scene that was taking place on the love seat. Sebastian had Derek lying flat on his stomach, ass raised on a pillow, head buried deep between Derek’s ass cheeks as he ate him.
“Look at D’s face.” Julian’s groaned.
“Look at his ass.” Logan whispered and fucked up into his boyfriend who moaned at the contact.
“Didn’t know Sebastian had it in him.” Julian groaned watching Derek moan loudly at something Sebastian did with his tongue.”
“Hey now, I have some moves of my own.” Logan said bucking up into Julian faster.
“Yes, yes you do.” breathed Julian, when Logan's hands found his cock “Yes you do.”
*
“That was amazing.” Derek moaned, thoroughly blissed-out, coming on the cushion. “I have the best ideas.” Sebastian smirked fisting his cock, pleasuring himself, still between Derek’s legs.
“Come on me.” Derek whimpered, “With pleasure.” Sebastian groaned and soon Derek felt strings of warm cum hitting him, Sebastian aiming for his ass and thighs.
*
“So gentlemen.” Sebastian smiled sunnily, thoroughly blissed out as he surveyed his wrecked friends around him, from where he was lying on the floor. Julian and Logan were cuddling together on the couch and his boyfriend was passed out on love seat, refusing to move. “I have no energy, you wore me out.” “I did all the work.”
“What do you think.”
“Best. Idea. ever.” Julian sighed and Logan nodded and kissed him on his cheek.
Summary: Soulmate AU where your soulmate’s name appears only after you’ve met/touch them.
In a world where couples were meeting everywhere and each touch brought you closer to your soul mate, Logan was fed up. All his friends had paired up and shacked up and he was the only one left.
At least, that’s what the world was telling him. Every passing glance, every touch bought people closer, except him.
“Amazing.” He sighed in frustration as yet another couple found each other, this time in the middle of a busy street and everyone smiled and clapped as the happy couple beamed at each other.
“Isn't it.” remarked an old lady smiling up at him only to meet his scowling face. She glanced at his bare hands and patted them, “You’ll find them soon.” and smiled and walked away.”
“Yeah, right.”
Little did he know….
*
Listen man, need a rain check. Can’t make it today, Casey’s parents are in town.
“Seriously.” He scoffed and took a sip of his drink and right next to him another couple was forming a connection.
“Dear God, not again.” he sighed and watched the new couple hug, the girl smiling widely, her soulmate grinning in delight. He drank the last of his beer and leaned back into the bar counter. He definitely needed a break.
“Tell me about it.” the guy next to him muttered and Logan turned to look into pretty brown eyes, the owner of them looking back at him.
“So, not a fan?.” He gestured to the couple that was still hugging and swaying side by side.
He ran his hands through his blond hair finding the man watching him intently. His gaze on him studying his movement, his eyes alternating between the fingers in his hair and his lips.
“I have better things to do with my time.” The brunet smirked, now checking Logan out while taking a sip of his drink.
“Like what.” Logan smiled suggestively, licking his lips, running his eyes all over the stranger’s body. He could definitely do with a distraction right about now.
“Come with me and I’ll show you.” The brunet said and reached out to touch Logan’s hand.
“I’m Ju-“
“Julian Larson Armstrong.” Logan read out the newly formed words that were appearing on his hand.
“Wait. What!.” and Logan smiled at his soulmate. Soulmate! and raised his hand out. “John Logan Wright.” he introduced himself as his name slowly appeared on his soulmate’s hand “and I guess you’re my soulmate.”
Dalton Big Bang 2020
Week 6 Day 1. Fake Dating AU
Prompt: The characters are faking a relationship for whatever reason. Use anyone you like, any reason, any outcome. Have fun!
“Your cousin is getting married this week, you would need to attend.”
Logan knows he shouldn’t have accepted the Senator's invite for dinner but Michelle, bless her heart, had missed him and had planned the dinner specifically with him in mind, catering the food from his favourite restaurant and he couldn’t say no.
“I have something this week, my friends and I are going skiing,” Logan said immediately hoping his friends were actually available for the weekend in case the Senator needed proof.
“Your grandfather will also be there, he expressed the need to meet you. You wouldn’t want to disappoint him.” The Senator said carefully at Logan with a particular look in the eye. It never boded well for anyone when the Senator deigned to look at them like that. “The invite is also extended for plus one so I have taken the liberty of-“
“No.” Logan exclaimed, the last thing he wanted was to play the dutiful son and parade a girl around, “I have a plus one, it won't be required.” He said wondering which of his friends he would need to sell his soul to in order to get them to agree to come with him. Julian, it would have to be Julian, he decided. Derek would just blow their entire cover the minute a pretty girl walked by. Julian, it would be Julian.
“You do.” Michelle exclaimed happily as she clapped her hand, “Who is it, anyone I know?”
“How have we not heard about this.” The Senator demanded over his happy wife
“Its Julian from school, you’ve met him.” Logan said carefully and Michelle squealed, “I knew it. You were always close and he is such a sweet boy. So handsome and nice. He’s perfect for you.”
“Yeah.” Logan smiled as he remembered all their antics at school and how they kept in touch throughout college, “Julian is my best friend, one of my closest. He’s always been there for me. I trust him deeply,.”
“But this boy is more than just a friend right.?” Senator Wright asked and Logan paled. “Yes, Its been a few months. We are taking it slow, I suppose. We are in the initial stage, getting to know each other, as I couple I mean.” He added hoping it was the right answer for the Senator who was studying him carefully. “Good,” he finally nodded and Logan sighed in relief, “I look forward to meeting him as your boyfriend and this way he can meet the family as your significant other.”
Oh Shit.
*
“What is it you wanted to ask me,” Julian said as he sat opposite Logan who was studying him carefully.
“If you do this I will be in your debt forever.” and Julian narrowed his eyes with a devious glint, “Maybe not forever.” Logan hastily backtracked, “But I will remember this and will treasure this.”
“Okay, okay.” Julian sighed and opened the card the menu card, “Now what is it that you want.”
*
“He did what.” Derek sputtered over the phone and Julian whined and pushed his hair away from his face. “I know.”
“And then what did you say?” Derek wanted to know. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes, “I mean its Logan.” Julian whispered softly, “What did you want me to say?” He took a deep breath, “I said yes, obviously. He sat there all sad and broken, that his dad didn’t accept him and he had no one and he couldn’t take what-his-face.” “Brian.” Derek supplied. “Yes him, because they were never really anything.” “Told you so.” Derek mumbled. “Yes, yes I know.” Julian paused “And then he said that he was counting on me. That there was no one else he could turn to, no one else he trusted and there was no way he was asking you because you would go running after the first girl you’d see and so I said yes.”
“And now.”
“And now I am packing, it’s a five-day thing.” Julian mumbled as he picked out dress shirts and trousers to take to with him, “ But thank God, we’d be there for only three days. These Wrights sure know how to throw a party.”
“And how would you handle it all, knowing that you’re in love with him and he doesn’t reciprocate but he wants you to be his fake boyfriend”
“He doesn’t know about me and how I feel about him,” Julian said softly sitting on the bed next to his half-packed suitcase. “But at least now I get to act on those feelings and I get to know what Logan would be like as a boyfriend. It’s why I said yes. If I couldn’t get that at least I can get this. ”
“And how would you be three days later when it comes to an end and you have to face him as just a friend again.”
“I don’t know but I will be filming for the new movie. I fly out immediately, so will tell you when I do actually get to meet him again.”
“Jules.”
*
“Don’t screw this up.”
“Hmm,” Julian mumbled from where he was checking a few emails before he could switch off his phone.
“Derek’s message, here read,” Logan said and shoved his phone towards Julian who read the message and knew exactly what it meant. He was glad that Derek was thinking about him.
“Well, he does have a point,” Logan said still frowning at his phone and then looking at Julian who was smiling softly.
“We need to set boundaries, he told me to speak to you about what is comfortable with you and I agree we should have discussed it first, especially the image it would portray to the paps who would certainly be there for Senator Wright’s niece’s wedding.”
“I thought the wedding would be a private wedding ceremony, that outside photographers were not allowed,” Julian said calmly next to him and Logan couldn’t believe that he was actually here in the plane with him and that he agreed with minimum fussing and Logan didn’t have to resort to bribery.
“It is, but one can never take chances.”
“Then we deal with it when it becomes an issue. My agent and publicist will deal with it.”
“And that you would be a plus one to a guy, you would in the capacity of my boyfriend, how would that feel.”
“Ok, I guess.” Julian shrugged, “ though I suppose we should discuss the boundaries.”
“Hugging is fine. Holding hands, dancing together” Logan supplied.
“Hmm.” Julian agreed, “There would need to be some kissing as well.” And Logan blanched, “ Kissing, we don’t need to do that.”
“It’s a three-day wedding interaction.” Julian looked at a Logan blandly, “I am to be your boyfriend, people in relationships kiss. It’s a form of affection.”
“And you’re fine with that.” Logan wanted to know.
“I have kissed people before.” Julian scoffed, ”Many times. I know what I am doing. I have received rave reviews as well.” he smirked.
“I know.” Logan said absently “But a boy, you would be kissing me, a boy. You would be fine with it?”
“It would be my pleasure,” Julian mumbled softly and Logan frowned, Wait, What, maybe he misheard.
“I have kissed boys before.” Julian supplied when he found Logan still looking at him quietly
“Yeah for movies, but this would be different.”
“No. I mean.” Julian paused, maybe he should spill it out properly for Logan, “I am Bi, I have kissed guys before and not just for movies”
“Oh.” Logan said softly. “ So this would not be weird.”
“This would not be weird.”
“Thank you for doing this with me.” Logan smiled at him.
“Anytime.” Julian smiled and Logan felt his heart skip a beat.
*
This had to be his dad’s doing Logan thought as he entered the spacious suite that had been booked for them. Even though he gave the option of twin beds the Senators smiled, evilly Logan added, back at him that after all the things Logan had said to him about equality and marriage rights he was not going to deprive his son and his boyfriend from sleeping in the same the bed.
“Thank god for this.” Julian sighed and plopped himself on the King size bed, the only bed in the suite, not even a sofa was available and a love seat that could barely fit two. Guess his dad was pulling out all the stops.
“Thank you,” Logan mumbled at the bellhop who brought their luggage and slipped him a fifty and shut the door behind him
“Would you look at this room.” Julian laughed, “Look at the view.” He gestured out to the rolling lawns that were in the process of being set up for the wedding.
“So I guess we need to discuss the event,” Logan said looking at Julian sprawled out on the bed. He looked radiant in the evening sun that was casting a glow around him. Ethereal, like angel, Logan thought still shaken from Julian’s confession in the plane and especially what he thought he heard, Julian wishing to kiss him.
“Would you relax.” Julian got up and dragged to him the bed, pushing Logan down and soon following after. He arranged himself on the pillow and sighed. “I already know your parents, I have already met your parents, you have filled me with details about your close family and you forget that I have also already met your grandfather and he doesn’t hate me and its Melissa and Doug’s Wedding’s, now sleep, I have set an alarm to wake us up for dinner” saying this he pulled Logan’s arm around him and closed his eyes. Logan looked at him and arranged himself accordingly, closing his eyes as he felt Julian arrange himself comfortably and he tightened his arms gathering Julian closed to him, who smiled and slept.
*
“Oh, shit we are late,” Logan muttered as he struggled into his jacket, trying to arrange his hair that was sleep tousled. “Let it be,” Julian said coming up to him, tapping Logan’s hands away from where he was trying to smoothen down his hair. “This gives the perfect image that you want to show. You were in a room together with your boyfriend that you have brought to a family wedding, It's serious, you’re serious about him. You look fine.” And Julian pecked him on the cheek. “Practice.” He told Logan’s reflection on the mirror. He raised his hand out and Logan took it. “Come, we need to leave soon otherwise we won’t be fashionably late anymore.”
The party was in full bloom when they entered the ballroom and they looked around at the lavish spread. Nobody spared a glance at them but Logan did hear a few hushed comments when they entered in and met with the Senator and Michelle who hugged and kissed them immediately. “Look how pretty they look.” She told her husband and hugged them again, “You did good Logan.” She whispered when she hugged Logan again for the second time.
“Thank you for making him happy.” She whispered to Julian,” He’s always happy when you're around.” and Julian hugged her tightly and Michelle smiled.
“We should dance.” Julian told him when Michelle finally left them alone, “Everyone is and we should too.” and dragged Logan out onto the dance floor, shuffling Logan around till he got himself in the position he wanted, his arms around Logan’s neck, he head resting on the crook of Logan’s shoulder and Logan didn’t know what to do, he tightened his arms around Julian’s waist pulling him close to him and let his body move to the music. “And this is fine with you?” he checked not wanting to overstep the boundaries and dancing practically in each other’s arms was not one of them including sleeping together and waking up cuddled together.
“Hmm.” Julian nodded from where he was resting his head on Logan’s shoulder and Logan could feel every move Julian made, his breathe barely there as felt on Logan’s neck and Logan smiled. He was not sure what was happening, Julian was calm and perfect, playing a dutiful boyfriend and everyone believed them. It would be so easy to love him Logan thought and then paled. Oh shit, did he? Did he love Julian?
“Hmm,” Julian stirred and Logan though he looked tired, they did have a long flight and Julian barely slept on the plane, he peppered Logan for details about his family, “I need to know about them right, as your boyfriend. Now tell me, who is Julia again.”
Logan found himself dropping a kiss on Julian’s hair who sighed and tightened himself around. “Better get your boy to bed, he looks dead on his feet.”
“Grandfather” Logan stuttered, "Sir.” and Julian looked up from he was basically sleeping in Logan’s arms. Logan’s grandfather nodded at the both of them,”I’ll handle your father, go.” and with a grateful nod to Senator Wright Senior, Julian gently led them out of the ballroom.
“We should talk about what happened today,” Logan told him softly. “It seems like things are changing. I-“ he paused and looked at his best friend who there with him, “We should talk.”
“Yes.” Julian said softly. “Later though. We’ll talk. But now lets sleep.” and Logan pulled Julian gently into his arms and slept.
*
“So today’s the rehearsal dinner and tomorrow is the wedding and the reception,” Julian asked him and Logan smiled as he watched Julian go through the clothes he had brought with him. It seemed almost domestic, sleeping together, waking up together, brushing teeth together, getting each other breakfast, Julian pouring his coffee, Logan passing him the sugar that he heaped it into his drink. God knows how he drank it but I guess that’s Julian, Logan thought as he watched him now decide which shoes he wanted to wear. God, he loves him.
“Hmm.” Julian said enquiringly as he placed his shoes down and went up to Logan, “You said something.” Logan smiled pulled him immediately into his arms and Julian looked pleased as he burrowed his way further into Logan’s arms. “Just glad that you’re here.”
*
Logan detested weddings but Julian made the event the entire event joyful as they joked and laughed, never straying from each other side. Even when Julian was recognized and was requested for a picture or when Logan was dragged off to meet some great uncle or cousin or the other and now it was time for the bride and groom to kiss but Melissa the Bride piped, “ We want all the couples in the room to kiss alongside with us as well. Love and happiness are meant to be shared and not kept hidden and since we are all family here what better way to show our love and happiness.” and everyone cheered.
Logan gulped, it was going so well, they were together, they were closer than before, Julian looked relaxed, happy, they hadn’t properly discussed what was happening between them but there was something between them. They woke up together in the morning in each other’s arms but they just stayed as they breathed in each other, Logan saw Julian’s eyes flutter open slowly and he kissed his nose gently and Julian smiled and kissed his cheek, lingering on his and he breathed before smiling shyly tucking himself against Logan.
And now before they could even discuss before going further, whether this was actually wanted, whether Logan was not making it up in his head, that Julian actually wanted this, wanted him, together as more, as a couple, the universe as aided by Senator Wright who immediately looked in their direction was going to play a cruel trick on him.
“Jules. “ He tried, he couldn’t do this to the perfect boy who dropped everything to be there for him, the perfect angel that Logan loved and sometimes, most of the times took for granted. “I can’t, Not this, I can’t do this, It won’t be fair, You have done so much for me. I won’t force myself on you.”
“It won’t be forced if I want it too,” Julian said softly and turned Logan to look at him. “I want it too, I want to kiss you. I want this to be real, to be your boyfriend.” He pulled Logan down and gently kissed him on the cheek, “While I loved playing your pretend boyfriend. I would really love to be your real boyfriend.” and Logan smiled and kissed him gently.
“Oye, Logan, not so soon.” Melissa hollered and all the gathered guest laughed and tittered around them. “We know you love your boy but wait for us to start the count down.” She smiled at her husband who beamed at his new wife and Julian and Logan giggled and separated from each other, though Logan didn’t allow him to go far, with his both arms around Julian's waist.
“3” Melissa started counting backwards, joined by all the gathered, “ 2” Julian whispered as he turned around to smile lovingly at Logan., “1” breathed out Logan and met Julian's waiting lips. He was now whole.

Dalton Big Bang 2020
Week 7 Prompt 1: Jogan day.
Julian glanced at the tabloid covers, Did famed actor Julian Larson lose his golden touch? His second movie to bomb the box office. Read More on Page 6.
He switched off his phone, Logan kept on calling. His dear sweet boy. He was worried about him.
You have to read beyond the tabloid nonsense Jules, Logan’s message read, the critics actually liked your performance. The rest of the movie sucked though… But you were perfect and you have a newer one coming soon, a better role. Come on Jules talk to me.
Vintage tee, brand new phone, High heels on cobblestone
When you are young they assume you know nothing
Julian laughed and wiped away the tears rolling down his cheek
Sequence smile, black lipstick, sensual politics
When you are young they assume you know nothing.
Taylor had it right all along.
But I knew you, dancin' in your Levi's, Logan sang hand still on the door when he let himself into their apartment and Julian turned back to look at him.
Strong under the streetlights I knew you,
hand under my sweatshirt Baby, kiss it better
And when I felt like I was an old cardigan under someone's bed,
you put me on and said I was your favourite
Julian smiled and sang
But I knew you Playing hide-and-seek and Giving me your weekends,
I knew you Your heartbeat on the High Line Once in twenty lifetimes, I knew you.
Logan reach up to him and wiped the tears from his face and kissing him sweetly.
To kiss in cars And downtown bars Was all we needed,
You draw stars Around my scars..I knew you’d linger Like a tattoo kiss. He pulled Julian close to him.
I knew you’d haunt All of my what-ifs. The smell of smoke would Hang around this long
Cause I knew everything when I was young I knew I’d curse you for the longest time
Chasing shadows in the grocery line I knew you’d miss me once the thrill expired
And you’d be standing in my front porch light And you’d come back to me...
“You came to me,” Julian whispered.

What great year it was for two-time Oscar Winner Julian Larson, he started off the year with 2 flopped movies and now he’s nominated for the Best Actor award. Read more to find out what to expect at tonight’s Academy Awards.
“And the Oscar goes to… Julian Larson” Jennifer Lawrence screeched on the stage.
Logan turned to his stunned boyfriend, “You knew this was going to happen. I told you this was going to happen. Now get up there.” and Julian nodded numbly and pulled Logan to kiss him.
Wedding 1: Mr. and Mrs. Sullivan cordially invite you to the wedding of their son David to Katherine Rivers.
“Stop checking out Julian.” Derek hissed at his best friend sitting next to him. “I am not.” mumbled Logan, “I just don’t understand how he ended up becoming a part of the bridal party amongst the sea of Windsors.”
“He and Katherine are friends.” Shrugged Derek. “Something about working in the same movie and the common Dalton connection. Now pay attention somebody’s aunt is giving us the side-eye.” and with a quick nod to the lady in question, they turned back to watch Katherine float by on her father’s arm.
*
“Don’t they make a happy couple?” Julian exclaimed as he sipped his glass of Champaign. “I guess.” Logan remarked staring at his other best friend as he stood next to him taking in the wedding scene, a slight smile on his face when Derek walked up to them. “Quick, I need your keys, Casey is not feeling well, so I’m going to drop her home.”
“And how do I get home again.” Asked Logan handing him his car keys.
“I don’t know, have Jules drop you home.”
*
Logan doesn’t know how exactly he got here in the first place, not here specifically in the limo but here as in having the boy he had always liked kissing the hell out of him.
“Jules” Logan breathed out as Julian kissed a line down his jaw, “Wait, just let me get my tie out.”
“Shush.” Julian whispered, “We do not want the limo driver to get suspicious.”
“Wait. Wait.” Logan said as he shucked out his jacket and loosened his tie. “Are we doing this? Are you sure?”
“Yes.” whimpered Julian, his hand massaging the hardness in his pants, “Faster, don’t make me wait.”
“Jules.” Logan tried again when he had unbuttoned his shirt.
“Come here.” Julian said and pulled Logan on him “This needs to be fast and quick.”
Logan gasped at the full contact with Julian, the entire length of him, sprawled out and warm beneath him, together from chest to thigh. “What are you looking at?” Julian grinned and kissed Logan fully on the mouth, grinding his dick into Logan’s thigh.
After that everything became a mess in Logan’s mind – soft lips, hot mouth, his fingers around Julian’s dick, hot, hard and heavy and Julian moaning in his ear as he came.
“You look amazing.” Logan whispered as the car came to stop in front of his house and Julian smiled blissfully at him and kissed him. “We should get a room next time.”
.....
Three months later.
Wedding 2: Together with their families, Derek and Casey invite you to their wedding.
“For God sake’s he said he would be here soon.” Derek hissed as he turned to look at his best man. “Stop fidgeting. Don’t make me regret choosing you as my best man.” as an indignant Logan whined “He’s late” and “Hey! I won that fair and square.”
At that minute the doors burst open and in walked Julian Larson who declared to all who had turned their heads at the sound of the doors opening. “Sorry I am late, traffic.” and the assembled crowd tittered and with a nod to Derek and Logan, he made his way down the aisle to a seat in the front.
“If you screw up my wedding just because you’re pining for Jules, I am going to kill you.”
*
“- and if you join me now in raising your glass, I would like to toast the married couple. To Derek and Casey.” and Logan swallowed his glass of Champaign as the happy couple kissed.
“What were you and Derek discussing, earlier today.” Julian whispered as the married couple had their first dance. “Oh, nothing.” Logan smiled, “That was quite an entrance.” and with a quick look around he kissed Julian on the cheek, bolstered by the fact that Julian was standing very, very close to him.
“Check my right pocket.” Julian smiled as Derek and Casey danced passed them and Logan put his hands in, coping a quick feel and came out with hotel rooms keys.
“I 'll be waiting for you.” Julian smirked and walked away.
*
“Fuck me.” Julian breathed out and pulled Logan on to him when he entered into the room, “I am ready.”
“We really need to talk about this.” Logan pressed kisses down Julian’s jaw. “Later.” whispered Julian and reached down to palm Logan’s dick.
*
Julian didn’t say anything as he cleaned the both of them up, crawling back into bed, into Logan’s arms and Logan didn’t know what to say to a best friend with whom you’ve slept with twice. He just laid there watching Julian rest; eyes closed, eyelashes gently fanned out. He caressed Julian’s cheek and pulled Julian closed to him, kissing him on the nose. “So, Reed and Shane’s in two weeks.” and Julian burst out laughing.
.....
Two weeks later.
Wedding 3: Reed and Shane invite you to celebrate their wedding day.
“So what’s the deal with you and Jules?” Derek said as he watched Logan watch Julian as he danced with Casey. “Don’t think I didn’t see the two of you sneak off together. What are you doing?”
“I don’t know.” groaned Logan, “It’s frustrating. Every time I try to talk to him he ends up distracting me. He’s Jules, I care about him. I have always cared about him.”
“So try again, properly this time. Talk to him.” Derek said and Logan nodded.
*
“There are no hotel rooms available.” Julian whispered as he and Logan danced across the grounds. “I think they’re onto us.” mumbled Logan and Julian turned to look at him. ”What do you mean.”
“Nothing, nothing.” Logan said and Julian closer to him. “You look amazing tonight. Better than the grooms themselves.
“What can I say.” preened Julian and Logan kissed him on the check.
“I really had hoped we could get a room.” Julian pouted and rest his cheek against Logan’s shoulder.
*
“What are you doing?” Julian asked when he noticed Logan surreptitiously lifting the tablecloth.
“We don’t actually need a hotel room you, know. Now shush, I don’t want to be noticed.” Logan said and disappeared under the table.
“Lo, what are you doing down there.” hissed Julian which turned into a moan when he felt Logan pull at his zipper.
“This.” replied Logan as he kissed Julian’s dick over his brief. He peeled back Julian’s underwear and kissed the tip of his dick, taking it in his mouth. ” Fuck my mouth.” he whispered “and be very, very quiet.”
.....
Two months later.
Wedding 4: Please join us to celebrate the wedding of Spencer Willis to Merril Portman.
“Ok, what’s up with all our friends getting married?” Julian asked as they watched Merril walk down the aisle. “I don’t know.” smiled Logan “but thank god for weddings, and yes in case you’re wondering I got us a room.” Julian kissed him on the lips “Then, what are we even waiting for.”
*
“Okay, what is up with the two of them?” Blaine asked Derek. “They were noticeably missing during your wedding reception, were smitten with each during Shane and Reed’s, and now they didn’t even stay. “
“I don’t actually know.” Derek sighed. They were soon joined by Casey and Kurt. “They were awfully close when we met them for dinner yesterday,” remarked Casey “Logan was all over Julian and was particularly happy about it and Julian looked like the cat that ate the canary.
“Has Logan told Julian how much he means to him then?” Kurt asked
“Well he definitely has taken my advice.” Derek said “I think this all started during David’s wedding. They were together at ours and every wedding since that.”
“So, whose wedding is next then?” asked Casey as she took a sip of Champaign.
”Ours.” replied Blaine as he kissed Kurt’s hand, “In four months’ time.”
.....
Four months later.
Wedding 5: Mr. and Mrs. Hummel request the honour of your presence at the wedding of their son Kurt Hummel to Blaine Anderson.
“So, are we planning to show our faces today?” Logan asked as he kissed Julian’s bare shoulder and laid down next to him.
”You really want to attend your ex’s wedding that much” Julian said as he pulled Logan close to him to lay his head on his shoulder.
“Not really.” Logan said dropping a kiss in Julian’s hair, “but I think they’re suspicious. Derek at least.”
“What does that mean, you’ve mentioned it before.” Julian murmured he placed on kisses on Logan’s shoulder, jaw, fingers.
“That I like you.” Logan said quietly watching Julian but Julian continued to kiss his jaw, working his tongue slowly, sucking his skin. “Continue, I’m listening.”
Logan smiled, relieved. “I have liked you for a really long time now.”
“Since when.” Julian asked laving the spot, alternating between placing small kisses, hand moving freely across Logan’s body.
“Since before, way before.” Logan stuttered as Julian’s hand found his dick.
“Good, I like you too.” Julian replied “and now that everything is sorted, how about round two?. You certainly seem to be up for it.”
.....
One month later.
Funeral 1: The funeral of Logan’s pining for Jules.
“Is this supposed to be your idea of a joke?” Logan frowned at Derek, “and you have invited people to this.”
“This is a solemn moment, the end of your singledom, the taming of the beast.” Derek said putting the finishing touches around the room including a banner. “No, don’t yell, your boyfriend was down with the idea. He even helped.”
“All I did was get him out of the house and supply some photos.” Julian said as he arranged his hair in the mirror.
“Jules.”
“You love me I know, go open the door, our guests have arrived.”
“This is so not funny.” Logan grumbled on his way to the door.
“This really is.” Julian laughed as Logan open door to reveal their assortment of friends.
“Hi, everyone please leave the wreaths by the door and don’t mind Logan, he’s just missing his singledom.”
Prompt: Fantasy AU for the Dalton Big Bang featuring the walking dead.
“No, not now, I’m tired.” Julian groaned and moved his leg away from the hand that that was travelling up his clothed leg. “Lo, seriously.” Julian said, jogging his knee, trying to shake off the hand that was persistently moving up his side, fingers raking into his clothes, “What is wrong with you.” and opened his eyes to find a walker’s bent head right in front to him.
The women, if you could call her that, had her scalp torn off, her face gaunt, eye shrunken, and smelt like that dead. She hadn’t yet realized he was awake and Julian slowly moved his hand around trying to find the gun he was sure he had nearby when he had fallen asleep.
He wriggled his fingers around him and the women slowly made her away up towards, when he heard Logan whisper, “Stay still.” A loud twack could be heard and then women dropped on him, dead,
“Are you okay?” Logan asked as he walked up towards him.
”Yeah.” Julian agreed and pushed the dead walker off.
“Good shot.” He said studying the round bullet hole, on the women’s forehead. “Close call.” Logan corrected and handed Julian his gun. “We need to move, they’re never alone.”
*
The world had ended one school day, news filtering in of a virus which reanimated the dead and then everything broke loose. But they learnt to survive, banding together, it helped they were all together and Dalton being the school it was prepared them, sort off, on how to how to survive in the wild, with archery, fencing, camping being the courses provided and the boys being the boys they were had too much practice with nerf guns and except now the nerf guns were replaced by real guns, thanks to Wes and his family along with the decorative spears, mallets, shields and other weaponry that made up the artistic décor that was Dalton.
“Come on, we need to get back.” Logan said cleaning up the area and dousing the small fire they had made with sand. “We need to tell them that we need to move again.”
“You know Charlie and Justin are not going to like it.” Julian said dusting his clothes and exchange his shirt for a clean one. “Yeah, but I almost lost you today and I don’t think the others will be down to lose anyone else.”
*
“I call this meeting to order.” Charlie said into his walkie talkie, he was the first inline of the contingent, a Dalton school bus that carried the majority of the Windsors and a few teachers
“Who died and made him king.” Derek muttered his hands on the steering wheel of other Dalton school bus that was filled with Stuarts and some students from Dobry and the schools from the surrounding area.
“Too soon.” Justin muttered as Spencer nodded steering the army war tank carefully. It was a gift from his father, Commander General Willis who was in charge of the evacuation and finding out a new area for the remainder of the people to settle.
“Listen up people.” Dwight’s voice could be heard over the commotion. “Scout one has just joined us reporting area towards the left as clear. His eyes trained on Blaine and Kurt on a bike joined by the twins in the Hummer. “We have yet to hear back from Scout two. Houston out.” and this was soon followed by Mullet rock and all the boys groaned.
“Ok, who allowed him to be the overwatch again.” Nick from Stuart said and he was immediately thumped on the head by Wes and Bailey. David was driving the Dobry school bus mostly filled with Hanover, the remaining of Dobry, and few Stuarts.
“Hey, Guys” Riley spoke carefully he was bringing the rear with the few day students that actually made it to the school and the remaining Windsors. The day students – Lancasters were the last of the mile-long contingent supported by Sydney Willis in another army tank and their job was to protect the long diesel truck that Justin was driving slowly and carefully. It was a precious commodity needed to run their vehicles.
“I see a gathering behind us, around 12 klicks.” Sydney barked into the tank's mike. “It’s not a large group but they are definitely gathering.”
“They seem to be chasing something.” Dwight said and Casey opened up the hatch window of the tank to find the Impala next to them.
“It’s Scout two.” Han’s voice piped out, looking at the Drone's camera and Charlie stopped the bus immediately and the Windsor contingent groaned. “What do you mean?”
“I thought it was to be a simple recon mission.” Derek groaned as he watched his best friends’ race towards them.”
“Incoming. Incoming.” Julian could be heard screeching.
“You’re leading them right us.” Kurt sighed and Blaine rubbed his back and handed him his gun. “Come, we’re needed.”
“Battleplan.” The Willis Sibling yelled simultaneously and Justin smiled.
“All the buses move ahead and block the passage. “ Sydney directed moving the tank out of the way “Shooters change hands and come back. We need to clear the crowd.”
She was soon joined by Blaine, Kurt, David, Dwight, Casey, Hope and Riley. The others that were the Twins, Derek, Ace, Katherine, Wes fanned out in a circle around their contingent tightening the borders.
Charlie, Shane, Reed, Drew, Satoru, Bailey and the others were up ahead to protect the buses and the Diesel truck.
“Snipers to the roof.” Han’s voice could be heard. “Aim for the eyes.” They are simple but are determined.” as he watched the small hoard slowly but steadily follow Jules and Logan who soon reached them.
“What's the plan.” Logan gasped out hands shivering as he let the bike come close to them. They all saw his hands shivering. “Maybe it’s for the best that you move up ahead to Charlie. It looks like there is some chatter on the mainline. Don’t worry, we got this.”
*
What soon followed was a whole lot of guns cocking and some very sharp shooting and the group of walkers were decimated. Knowing the value of bullets, the group soon reverted to weaponry when the mass of walkers reached them and they soon cleared them within minutes, stabbing the walkers expertly between the eyes or severing throats; the only way to successively kill a walker and soon bodies of the dead were littering the road.
“What next.” Sydney asked as she cleaned her long sword. ”Well, dad came through.” Logan smiled as he looked at the message that was playing out in front of him. “We got coordinates.” Spencer asked, “We got coordinates.” Julian repeated.
“And the other contingent?.” Kurt asked referencing their parents, that they had lost contact with a few weeks earlier. The main contingent had gone ahead to clear the area for the kids but they had lost connection with them due to a scuffle with a large group of very persistent walkers and the kids were trying to get in contact with them.
“Them too.” Charlie smiled, “Each and every one of them.” as he read the corresponding series of messages
Heavily inspired by @ https://www.plurk.com/danibanaani post on plurk.
Pairing: Jogan
Logan sometimes feels like he’s back in high school as he watches his fellow senators try to come to a decision on the bill that needs to be passed. “I need a break.” he sighs and stands up, his colleagues barely acknowledging him as they squabble all around him. “Just know that this doesn’t just impact us alone, it impacts everyone out there as well and you know where I stand.” and with a nod to the speaker, he turns and walks out of the room.
His statement is soon followed by hushed whispers and some not so quiet ones but he is used to it. He has gone from being Senator Wright’s queer son to Senator Wright, no the queer one. Sometimes he just wants to be Logan - who loves what he’s doing, which is helping people in his own way.
He glances at his phone and there is an email waiting for him from his secretary, a link to a news article. He almost dismisses it, not sure if he can stand the daily barrage of venom the press spews daily but something stops him today.
He braces himself for the garbage that is usually spouted about him but this one is different. It’s an article about the proposed bill and an actor’s views about the same. Logan’s name appears in the article as one of the Senator’s to look out for, who are doing good things. It’s beautifully articulated and the actor has good views, speaking neither for nor against the bill, which Logan likes.
He took to google to read more - Julian Larson, the actor and the star of the latest blockbuster who is promoting his movie but has a spin put on him during the interview "I don’t follow politics that much, but he’s a good one, smart too and cute.” followed by a sly smile and wink,
Logan chokes, as he watches the video, the actor bright-eyed and animated, his smile wide as he moves his hands around talking and gushing about the movie. He’s cute too. His brain registers and Logan doesn’t know what to do.
*
“It’s because lives matter. People lives matter” snarls Logan across the floor, fully aware of where he is and what he is doing and also that it’s being filmed live. But, he can’t let the bullies win, they need to be stopped and he has the power to do it. “and I will have nothing to do with it. I vote No.”
The video of himself has gone viral, tweeted out again and again by everyone including Julian. And yes his brain still remembers the cutie.
“Logan Wright is such a babe!, I would vote for him. #babe4president.” It doesn’t help that Julian Larson’s massive army - read 10 Million follower’s on twitter – retweet the message over and over.
*
When his phone pings he’s in a meeting about his re-campaign propaganda and he’s not fully sure whether he wants to do it again or not. To see the same idiots day in and day out but it’s a tweet from Julian: who yes he now follows, that decides for him. He hopes that he wouldn't be noticed, hiding among Julian’s vast followers and that is true for a while but it’s a tweet about a video of himself when he was first campaigning and a hashtag babe4president and he knows what to do. He also gets a follow back from Julian and then he doesn’t know what to do.
*
Its starts off as something innocent. They message each other, well Julian is usually messaging him about random bits of his day but mostly about Logan and abysmal clothing choices.
“Yes the suits are good, but you can’t seriously own only suits, you need to diversify your wardrobe. You need clothes that look good on you, perfectly tailored. Yes, you’re cute and hot, I give you that, but if you want to win, you need to appeal to the masses. No, that’s not your good side. What does you stylist say?”
When Logan tell him that he doesn’t have a stylist, Julian soon gives him contact details to the city’s up and coming stylist, asking him to call her immediately.
When the press takes note of Logan’s new and improved clothing choices and commends him on the same, he gets a message.” You should thank me.”
They officially meet at the screening of Julian’s movie, tickets arrive the morning off and Logan is not sure whether he’s going but the handwritten message that accompanies the tickets is what seals the deal. Looking forward to meeting you officially.
*
And then it progresses and Logan realizes that he’s been speaking to Julian daily, for more than a month now. Julian telling him about the trials of filming a new movie and getting to know new cast members and directors, sending him pictures of set designs and trailers.
Logan tells him about his dreams and fears as he reaches the final days of the campaign as the elections draw near. Sending him pictures of his life as well - of an empty conference hall, his name on a banner in the corners, flower arrangement at a party with people not in focus in the background ” I want to be known as more than my father’s gay son. I want do good in this world.”
“You do so much more than that.” Julian tells him.
*
When Logan wins, Julian is the first person he tells, in fact, Julian is on the phone with him when they find out that he has won.” I told you would win, you’re so much better than that douchebag.” Logan smiles and asks “You are coming tonight right.”
“Wouldn’t miss it for the world.”
Julian is present at the party later in the evening, the only actor among a sea of politicians and the likes. He is holding his own as he talks and gives back good when they underestimate him and gains respect from everyone assembled, Logan included and Logan realizes he is in love with Julian.
He never leaves his side.
Its the first time the press hints of them being a couple. No one stands that close to a person you have just met with a couple of times – read twice, as put in by Julian’s fanatics. With Logan’s head tilted slightly towards Julian with a hand resting on his back as Julian hands him a flute of Champaign.
*
When it’s time to make an acceptance speech, officially acknowledging his win, he sends Julian a copy of his speech, who send it back with few changes of his own as the speech doesn’t sound like Logan. He reads through it and realizes that it is absolutely perfect. “I love it.” Logan breaths out. ”I love you.”
“I love you too.” Julian replies
And later in the evening when he steps out onto the podium Julian is right there sitting in the front row and Logan smiles and open his mouth and speaks, the kiss that follows later in the evening, half-hidden in the shadows is what makes the papers the morning. #makinghistory.
