Vince had come to be a rather frequent guest at Swess’s apartment. This was partially because Vince never stayed at a nice hotel. He typically couldn’t afford it, and all the crisp white bedsheets and sweet smelling candles made him uncomfortable. He didn’t belong in that world. He belonged in the world of cracked windows and smoke-stained walls, but Swess wasn’t a fan of that. The redhead had been on the receiving end of many scoldings about his living arrangements.
The main reason, however, that Vince was over often was simply because he liked Swess. He liked being around the other male, and he couldn’t really explain it. The feeling was just there, and even though it made him want to throw up, he was going to stick it out for as long as he could.
He was there when Swess got home from work, having just used the smaller male’s shower. His auburn hair was still damp and drying into curls. He had pulled on a t-shirt and sweats, and he still smelled of steam and Swess’s shampoo as he carried the blond up to his bedroom. Vince smiled and chuckled, speaking quietly.
“Do you want me to join you? For sleeping purposes only-- you’re too tired for anything else.”
