He Kissed A Boy (And He Liked It)

Summary: Aiden gets into a playful fight with Matthew in the kitchen, and discovers something that could give him the upper hand.
This was never the way he planned, not his intention.
Yet somehow, it had turned out like this.
He’d kissed a boy, and he’d liked it.
He had kissed Aiden, and it was one of the best things he’d ever done.
Matthew could hardly believe that the random boy that had gaydared him at the pharmacy was now his boyfriend. (Is that even a word? Who cares.)
And now, flash forward a few months, they were baking together in the church bake-off to rebel against Matthew’s mother.
“Pass me the spoon”, Aiden ordered. Matthew grabbed the cooking spoon and passed it to him. Aiden violently beat the cake batter he and Matthew had just made.
“Whoa, whoa. Easy there”, Matthew chuckled, amused at his boyfriend’s violent stirring. “Sorry”, Aiden said, beating the spoon even harder and louder than before, “I can’t hear you over my awesomeness”.
“Oh, give me a go”, Matthew said, gently shoving Aiden to the side. He grabbed the spoon to mix it himself.
“Hey!”, Aiden whined, reaching to fetch the spoon back.
“Uh-uh-uh”, Matthew taunted, lifting the spoon into the air above Aiden’s reach, “You stir like a good boy or you don’t stir at all”. Aiden humphed. He stood on his tippy toes, yet Matthew did the same, and he was significantly taller than Aiden.
Aiden rolled his eyes, “You know, you can’t keep your arms up forever”.
Matthew chuckled, “I’m stronger than I seem Aiden”.
Both boys felt fluttery from the playful atmosphere. Suddenly, Aiden had an idea. He grinned smugly, he just hoped to hell it worked.
“You sure you can keep your arms up?”
“Oh yeah”, Matthew responded.
“Okay”, Aiden said dismissively, “I guess I give up than”. Aiden walked behind Matthew slowly, as if retreating, before, in a sudden movement, he dug his fingers under Matthew’s arms.
Matthew shrieked girlishly and flung his arms down, Aiden capturing the spoon as soon as he did so.
“Hah!”, Aiden said, “That wasn’t very long, was it. I thought you said you could keep your arms up forever!”
“You scared me!”, Matthew remarked back, crossing his arms.
“Oho, so that's what you think it was”, Aiden chuckled, stepping closer to Matthew and dropping the spoon onto the counter.
“Yeah”, Matthew said, “I’m easily scared”.
Aiden shook his head, “Nope, I think your ticklish babe”.
Matthew blushed a deep scarlet, “Wha-wha- no I’m not!”
“Than why are you blushing like a tomato?”, Aiden asked, taking a step towards Matthew. Matthew decided, without thinking, to grab the spoon off the counter and make a run for it.
“Oh, you are so on”, Aiden said, bolting after him.
Jeez, Aiden was running as fast as he could, but Matthew was a bloody lightning bolt. That was when he remembered: It was his house, not Matthew’s. He had the advantage of knowing where the shortcuts were.
Matthew was definitely surprised when he saw Aiden bolt off in the opposite direction. He knew the boy was up to something, but he didn’t know what. Oh well, he just kept running.
That was when Aiden jumped out from a corner right in front of him, “Boo!”
He screamed and him and the baking spoon came toppling to the ground. Aiden took this opportunity to pounce, knowing that his boyfriend could easily escape otherwise. He immediately started tickling Matthew all over; from his neck to his knees to his stomach, all in one swift notion. Matthew burst into laughter, but tried not to squirm to much, as he didn’t want to hurt his boyfriend.
“NHOHOHO AIHIHIHIDEN STAHAHAHAWP!”
Aiden snickered, “Nah, I don’t think I will. You do deserve this after all, for trying to steal my spoon!”.
“I WAHAHAS GOHOHONNA GIHIVE IHIT BAHACK!”, Matthew cried, trying desperately to smack Aiden's hands off. This gave Aiden the idea of pinning Matthew’s arms above his head and nuzzling into his stomach.
“NOHOHO! NOHOHOT THEHEHERE!”
Aiden grinned, “How can you be so ticklish and so sassy. You know that I’m going to use this against you in the future, right?”
“OHOHOHO SHUHUHUT UHUHUHUP!”
Aiden gasped and put a hand on his heart, “Okay, that's it. I didn’t want to have to do this Matthew, but you leave me no other choice. I present to you, squeezzes!”
Aiden squeezed the sides of Matthew’s stomach. It was his worst spot himself, so he hoped it would work on Matthew. And just like that, Matthew’s laughter got ten times louder.
Matthew couldn’t resist anymore, he kicked out his leg.
Just like that, Aiden went flying backwards.
Matthew gasped, “Oh my god I am so sorry! Are you okay?”
Aiden sat up and rubbed his head, “Yeah, I’m fine”
Another kiss, and it was just amazing. Matthew’s heart got butterflies, and he wrapped his hand around the back of Aiden’s head.
“Now”, Aiden said, “Lets get back to baking”.
The boys stood up and walked to the kitchen.
Matthew kissed a boy, and he liked it.
Than, he remembered what Aiden had said: “How can you be so sassy yet so ticklish? I’m going to use this against you in the future!”
As Aiden stirred the mixture, more steadily this time, Matthew sassed him again.
“I’m surprised your even managing to hold that spoon up with those skinny arms!”
Aiden turned around to Matthew, raising an eyebrow, “Was that on purpose?”
Matthew blushed, “Was-was what on purpose?”
“Well”, Aiden said, “It worked.”
And just like that, Matthew’s laughter filled the room once again.
