Chapter 12 #5

“That’s so dangerous,” Luka said, his eyes wide. “What if I get scared and run?”

“Then you take my heart with you.”

Luka shook his head. “I can’t do that to you.”

“Then don’t run,” Reno said and Luka felt his eyes burning again.

Reno wiped his tears away, making soothing noises, not pressuring Luka for a reply. He leaned forward and kissed the corners of Luka’s eyes and when he backed away, he looked misty himself.

“You can give me you when you’re ready. I can wait.”

“Okay.” Luka closed his eyes, feeling Reno’s warmth, his gentleness, his endless understanding. “Give me these two weeks. Don’t pressure me for an answer until the day before I’m set to go home. On that day, make me make a choice.”

“I can do that.”

“Until then, keep your heart. I don’t want to hurt you if I decide to leave.”

Reno swallowed, looking pained as his brows creased his forehead. “Please, don’t leave forever if you do.”

“Reno.” Luka put a hand on Reno’s chest. “I can’t promise you anything like that right now. I need to be around you. I need to explore this city, meet the people you care about, get a feel for your life. You need to give me time, too.”

“What can I have during these two weeks?”

“Woo me.” Luka felt himself start to smirk, even through all the emotions he was experiencing.

“Take me on dates. Show me off. Make me feel as important as you claim I am. Show me what our lives would be like if I stayed here with you. In return, you will know what your life could be like if I were to stay, too.”

“So for two weeks, I have to experience you in full force and somehow guard my heart?”

“Yes.”

Reno groaned, “Such a difficult ask.”

“Reno, I’m serious.”

“I am too.” Reno ran a thumb against Luka’s cheek. “I will make you feel so cherished, you’ll never want to leave my side.”

“You’re extremely lucky I enjoy being smothered with attention.” Luka pressed his face into Reno’s hand. “I can’t imagine what it would be like if I didn’t.”

“Ask Sebastian.”

“Fuck, I forgot you two almost dated. You’ve only brought it up once, I think. What happened there, wasn’t it only a few weeks?”

Reno moved his hand back so he could run his nails through Luka’s hair. “Yup. Seb is a very gentle man. I am not. He saw a glimpse at how intense I can get and bowed out. He did so very politely and it saved us both a lot of grief. I worry a lot now that you won’t like it either, though.”

“Like what, how intense you are?”

“I—” Reno started, pausing his scratching until Luka nudged his hand into action again.

“I can be a whole lot to handle. I’ve been told my whole life that I am a lot.

That I can be overwhelming about, well, everything I do.

But when I start to love, it is double bad.

I’m more careful now about picking and choosing who I show all parts of myself to, only letting people see little bits of who I am and what I’m like. ”

“Do you show me?”

“Hm, mostly. Not all things,” Reno admitted. “I keep things reserved for my partner. There will be a level you will not experience until you tell me yes.”

“Am I the only one?”

“What?” Reno removed his hand, and Luka immediately regretted asking. “You mean?”

“The only person you’re seeing.”

“Oh my god, Luka.” Reno looked genuinely concerned. “Oh my god. Luka… have you been unsure this entire time if I was seeing other people?”

“Yes?” Luka admitted.

“Luka, no.” Reno made Luka look at him. “No. I am not seeing anyone but you. I do not text and call anyone like I do you. I have no interest in anyone else. My romantic affections are reserved for you only.”

“I’m sorry.”

“It’s okay. I am happy to reassure whenever you need.”

Luka looked down just to escape from Reno’s gaze for a moment. “The first time we slept together, I was sure I was just another on a list.”

“What, why?”

“Reno, you’re a famous musician. You could sleep with anyone you wanted. Also, you have insane stamina. You don’t get stamina like that without regularly fucking.”

“You have stamina, too. Does that mean you’re sleeping with other people?” Reno raised an eyebrow, clearly not meaning the accusation.

“I’m kind of built differently than you. Remember?”

Reno took a moment before he looked like he understood. “Right. Easier for multiple orgasm.”

“Jesus Christ," Luka groaned.

“What, I forgot. And, well to be honest, it hadn’t been that long since Arnaud and I fooled around before I got in touch with you.

We were pretty regular. I’m a bit insatiable.

” Reno shrugged. Luka felt like the wind got knocked out of him every time Reno talked about him and Arnaud.

“Before he and I made our arrangement I tried hooking up with a few people after shows using apps and stuff, but it got boring fast. They always wanted me to bottom and I don’t really do that except for a few people. Oh, I’ve been meaning to ask.”

Luka was ripped away from his inappropriate thoughts. “Oh no, what?”

Reno looked reserved for a moment, then asked, “Forgive me, but can you get…Um, can you have—”

“No.” Luka flushed. “I had my reproductive organs removed when I had top surgery.”

Reno nodded. “Good.”

“Hold on, why is that good?” Luka assumed someone as close to his family as Reno was would potentially want one of his own one day.

“If you’re not sleeping with anyone else and I’m not sleeping with anyone else, then…” Reno looked down at Luka's body, a devious expression on his face.

Luka swallowed, putting the pieces together. “Please.”

Reno’s eyelids fluttered and his lips parted. “I’m going to make a mess of you.” He pushed himself up to crawl on top of Luka, slotting himself between his legs and grinding down against him through their clothes.

Luka melted into it, relieved after crying, after laughing, after feeling shock and fear and affection all at once, that he could just grab at Reno’s shirt and pull him down into a kiss.

He opened his mouth, hungry to feel Reno, desperate to put aside all thought, and to surrender every last bit of energy he had for the day to Reno’s careful hands.

Reno slid a hand under Luka’s shirt and grabbed his ribcage, his nails carving little crescents where they pushed against sensitive skin.

Luka didn’t want to wait. He didn’t want to fool around, so he tugged at Reno’s clothes, using his feet to pull down Reno’s pants and underwear.

When Reno was naked on top of him, Luka ran his hands down his body, pinching, scratching, and squeezing everything he could reach, making Reno laugh lightly, clearly sensitive and enjoying being the subject of Luka’s desire.

“You want me that badly?” Reno asked, and when Luka looked down and saw how hard he was, he raised his eyebrows.

“Don’t be a hypocrite," Luka replied before tugging Reno down to say right into his ear, “But yes, I want you to come in me.”

“Oh, fuck," Reno groaned and his hips twitched, smearing a thin line of precome across Luka’s hoodie. “Take off your pants.”

Luka squirmed out of them, pushing them off the couch, and before he could fully settle back into place, Reno was already frotting against him, sounding desperate.

He was so hot against Luka where they slid together, so slick from Luka’s own body, that he could feel his pulse in between his thighs.

Reno slid a hand under Luka’s hoodie, teasing at his chest and his stomach, before he tugged the hoodie off too and balled it up under Luka’s head for support.

He leaned back and palmed his cock, putting more pressure on them both as he thrust there.

The length of his cock drove Luka crazy as it slid over him, over and over.

Reno moaned openly, watching himself frot against Luka’s body, and in an awed voice, said, “I touched myself so much thinking about you.”

Luka felt his cheeks burn. “And you didn’t think to send videos?”

Reno shook his head. “I thought about coming in you over and over. I wanna fill you, mark you everywhere. Watch me drip out of you after.”

“You’re so possessive.” Luka grabbed onto Reno’s arms and tugged him down.

Reno followed, a gasp leaving his lips before he turned his head just right to kiss Luka.

The way Reno’s tip pressed against him as they kissed made Luka lightheaded with anticipation, and he tilted his hips so that the next time Reno shifted to kiss Luka even deeper, he nearly slipped inside.

“Ah," Reno gasped, sharply. “You’re so fucking hot.” He teased Luka’s hole with his tip and his lips fell open in a moan.

“So wet, how are you built so perfect for me?” He put his forehead against Luka’s collarbone and eased their bodies together, both of them moaning, then panting, when Reno’s hips met flush against Luka’s.

“Reno," Luka gasped, feeling like Reno was resting in his stomach. His body greedily accepted him, clenching pleasantly around how thick he was. “You feel so good.”

Reno rolled his hips and his hands curled into fists by Luka’s head.

The noise he made was obscene, and Luka couldn’t believe how close Reno felt, how big he felt, how entirely surrounded by Reno he was.

The feeling of Reno sliding in and out of his body made Luka feel dizzy, their skin together so sensitive that it made it impossible to keep his eyes from fluttering closed.

He could tell Reno was having a difficult time keeping himself composed.

Mouthing against Luka’s collarbone as he panted, hot and sticky against Luka’s skin and every thrust was followed by a moan as he took his time, sliding deliriously easy in and out of Luka while muttering a series of small praises, telling Luka how good he felt, how perfect he was.

It made Luka choke, hearing Reno say those things about him while fucking him so slow and sweet.

Reno lifted his head from Luka’s chest and kissed him, as sugary as his chocolate and just as heady on his tongue. He moaned Luka’s name into his mouth, sending chills down Luka’s spine.

He said, “I’m not going to last, you feel too good.”
