it only occurred to him now, with holland's hands trailing down his chest, that they didn't really have an opportunity to do this for some time. that didn't make what holland did okay, but maybe he understood it. saint chased his lips, reminding himself repeatedly not to get too rough with him now as one hand lifted to hold his neck, the other sliding up and down his back as he deepened their kiss.

it wasn't lost on holland that it had been a while since the two had been this close to each other . between different schedules , the tension , and the constant fighting -- holland wasn't sure if he would have even agreed to the idea then but he was now . he couldn't help the soft moan that escaped him , hands taking a hold of the bottom of saint's shirt to pull it up .

josh hummed, " I don't know, I guess I thought you'd make me work for it more, " his lips twitched, " but you're looking at me like you wanna kiss me, so that's good. " he was teasing, of course, kieran was probably more like him to hit him than kiss him for that comment but joshua couldn't help but poke fun.

kieran found herself chuckling at that , " is that what you see , huh ? " she taunted as she tilted her head . she had to admit , despite the tease , it was actually rather smooth . " more likely to kiss you than anyone else , so , you at least have me there . "

he paused when holland shifted, frowning slightly when he moved with some discomfort but happy to see the new placement. he ran his hands down the other's sides, leaning in to nuzzle beneath his jaw, " I'll never let you out of my sight again, " saint breathed, only half joking about that.

his lips tipped up at saint's words , fingers pushing through the man's hair . holland wasn't going to bother to question that even if saint may have been partially joking . he shifted again , this time to bring their lips together , fingers brushing down the man's chest .

nicky expected to be notified of sutton's arrival, but that didn't appear to be the case. he'd made himself comfortable, having a drink or two and loosening his tie as he dealt with calls and such before turning at the sound of the door opening and the soft utter of his name. nicholas stepped into view and smiled, " I'll call you later. " he ended the call abruptly, " hello, sutton. "

" hi , " she hummed . " hope i'm not interrupting . " she motioned toward the phone before dropping her hand , lips twitching slightly before she stepped forward , offering the contract the man had left in her care earlier . " business now or later ? " sutton questioned with a perked brow . nicholas certainly knew how to make himself comfortable although she didn't expect much less .

"Oh, where's that hot gossip when I need it?" Natalie shot the brunette woman a playful wink. "I have an affinity for the bad boys. It hasn't changed since I was a teenager." Nicky wasn't her first unsavory affair and maybe he won't be her last. "The city's filled to the brim with toxic people, Kieran. Easier bending to it than deny I'm anything but."

" hey , you said it . " kieran attempted to hide a grin although it was hard not to chuckle . " i just don't see why it's a big deal . most men don't hide that their married . not at that status . " she wondered if nat would come out with it . " i mean , you're not fucking him now so why does it matter ? "

saint nodded his head, " I'm just-- I'm glad you're here, " he murmured, " and I'm sorry that I didn't make you feel safe. you are safe with me, I promise, " he leaned over and cupped his face, " I will always take care of you, I love you more than anything. " he leaned in and pressed his lips to his lover's own softly, " I hated you not being here. "

holland knew in some ways believing saint was stupid . he heard him . he seemed sincere but deep down it felt moot after what happened even if holland was willingly accepting it . " hated not being here , " he murmured . maybe he shouldn't have but he found himself shifting closer , ignoring any minor discomfort to find placement on saint's lap . he knew he should have been running for the hills but all he wanted was to be close to the other .

"I'm not just talking about the therapist, I'm only saying in general." Natalie pressed her back against the bench's rest with a wistful sigh, "I know that, but have you ever slept with a known cartel leader only to realize he was married? Yep, that's me." She was apparently a glutton for danger, though. "Maybe I'm the toxic one."

" cartel ? no . married ? maybe . " kieran shrugged her shoulders . " never really bothered to check . " nor did kieran really care if she was being honest . " i mean , yeah , you're probably toxic but , come on , who really cares ? "

joshua shrugged, " lighting maybe, " he was teasing of course, if only because he knew that kieran understood that it was circumstance. her agreeing to a date with joshua was incredibly attractive, especially when he knew that she had wanted to. he paused as he dropped the menu down, " although, it feels -- not how I expected it to, we're friends, right? for now, at least. "

kieran couldn't help the mild amusement that touched her face at joshua's initial response . " we're friends , " she spoke with a nod of her head . " not how you expected ... in a good way , i'm hoping . "

"Not really, no, but I thought I was an open book type of person." Natalie's mouth pulled in a dismayed frown. At one point, she excelled at playing the social butterfly, however, this was no longer high school. "The moment I open my mouth and even share that part of myself, I'm fucked. Trust me, I've been burned before." The blonde tucked a leg underneath her and sighed, "Long list of toxic men proves that point."

" it's a therapist , " kieran pointed out . " i don't think they're exactly gossiping with half the city . they wouldn't have clients . " she took a sip of her coffee , almost laughing as nat continued on . " we all have a long list of toxic men , nat , you aren't the only one . "

joel groaned, he'd waited long enough to hear the words but he was sure he'd never tire of them regardless. he finally managed to undo the button of quin's pants and impatiently tugged them down. he paused to admire his naked love, it wasn't as if it was the first time he'd seen it, but it was the first time his admiration didn't have to be a secret. he briefly glanced up to quin's face as his breath caught in his throat. he reached out, taking the man into his hand and slowly stroking up and down, his teeth finding his own lower lip as his gaze darted between the task at hand and the man's expression.

he knew he wouldn't tired of saying the words . nor would he tire of joel saying them . he bit on his bottom lip as joel got his pants off , a moan escaping his lips when the other touched him , head tilting back before straightening up again , a hand tugging on joel's own pants . " off . "

saint nodded, sitting down and looking him over. it was strange to think that he'd almost lost holland, maybe he did lose him, temporarily, considering holland had sought safety and desire elsewhere, but permanent loss. being here alone without holland for a few days had been heartbreaking, he couldn't imagine attempting life without having him here. evidently, saint had been taking his love for granted. he put aside his food and frowned, " holly? "

holland had turned his attention to his food . he had to admit , if nothing else , it was nice to be done being served hospital food . it was nice to eat something sitting on his couch again . it was when saint spoke that he looked up , expression softening a bit . " yeah ? " he asked before putting aside his food . " you okay ? "

" no guilt necessary, only joy that you're still here with me now, " he waved a hand, he never really saw dakota as a burden, not even at his worst. jiro was certain there was nothing that could have persuaded him to abandon hope when it came to his son, he was troubled, he had demons, he suffered and he learned to cope with the only means at his finger tips. there was no blame to place there. he was a victim to circumstance and jiro wouldn't be persuaded to believe otherwise. he was grateful that dakota had come out the other side, he'd always had faith but he knew how difficult the road to recovery could be, and how long it stretched even past that which people noticed. he had no doubt that dakota struggled even now, so to know he spent each time applying effort to staying clean was more than meaningful to the older man. jiro smiled at his son's chuckle, " I'll be happy when you cannot move for being full. "

dakota offered a soft smile at jiro's response . he knew his father would lean into guilt when it came to him . he never once had before even if he knew that he had scared his father on more than one occasion . his father never once blamed him . never once more him feel guilty . all he ever did was offer dakota love and support . " okay , okay . " dakota spoke with a smile focusing on his food again , " so , how have things been ? in general ? "

jiro plated up food for the both of them, offering boomi his plate first before dealing with his own. he leaned back and looked at the tv, " what will we watch? " he asked, knowing that they wouldn't be doing much watching after eating, but for now he could at least feign interest.

" thank you , " boomi hummed as he took the plate , shifting back to get comfortable on the sofa , glancing toward the television . " uh , doesn't matter , " he spoke as he looked back at jiro , lips twitching slightly . " we never really pay attention anyway . "

he laughed against dakota's lips, he didn't exactly care that he was a little arrogant, in gabe's eyes it was well deserved and he'd heard all about dakota's struggles over the years, he deserved his confidence. he responded to the kiss eagerly and returned them to their previous position, hovering over the younger man, slightly irritated he hadn't kicked off his pants before getting into bed. gabe didn't waste time on that, however, and instead began to kiss way down dakota's frame, taking his own sweet time as his tongue teased his flesh.
