    Summary

    "Absolutely no, not him."

    "You don't even know him."

    "I shared a class with him."

    "In eight grade! Wy, he has talent."

    Wylan whines. The him in question does have talent. He is the best guitarist they have listened to. One of the only ones that have applied for their silly, little audition.

    Thing is, they miss a man.

    Summary

    "For what it's worth, I'm sorry. You didn't deserve any of this, my love."

    The nickname sounds different when it's said in a language he's fluent in. His cheeks burn, and his mouth opens, and he knows a confession when he sees one.

    "I don't want to stop, Laurent. Not now, maybe not ever. I want to travel world and drink coffee, and I want to be held and loved, and I want to make my own damn decisions." His voice cracks, and it's only a little humiliating, because Laurent starts peppering kisses on the nape of his neck, so he stops giving a singular fuck.

    "You can have anything you want, Makoto." It's spoken in a whisper, only just grazing the shell of his ear. The sound of Laurent saying his name sends shivers through his being.

    "Even you?"

    Glass shatters from behind him. Cynthia is giggling, and Abbie is yelling something with a smile in her voice. Laurent tightens his grip.

    "You've had me from the start."
