“So, Tully, we are waiting for your secret neighbor you’ve been talking about for the last few weeks?” Davos scoffed “Does she even exist?”
“I’ve seen them at the bookstore yesterday. She exists.” Aeron sighed.
“You went there without me? How dare you!” Davos tousled his hair.
Oscar wasn't listening, busy checking his phone and watching the entrance. He couldn't remember if he'd told her about this stupid mistletoe tradition on the first day of school. Fuck, he should’ve asked to come together but it seemed too soon.
He missed the beginning of the quarrel, the voices got higher and with a shout of “Fuck off, Davos” Aeron rushed to the entrance.
He didn't notice that someone was already there, and they froze in shock when heard “We have winners!!!”.
“Sorry, I’m new here so what’s happening?” Fuck no…
“It’s Ella” Oscar whispered to Davos, almost crying.
“You two should kiss so that the whole school will be lucky with love for the next year,” one of the girls from the committee replied happily.
She recognized Aeron, one of Oscar's friends, whom he showed her on photo. Oh, this would be interesting. Ella came closer, gently put her hand on his head, his hair was so soft.
She noticed that Oscar and Davos were looking at them in disbelief. She pulled him closer and kissed. Lips were soft and sweet, boy surprisingly answered putting his arm around her waist and pulling her closer. He followed her as she deepened their kiss. Some of the students whistled and she heard someone counting.
“Thank you, my Prince”, Ella bowed as they parted. “That was an outstanding welcome”.
It was time to run.
LucElla Strong
WTF, Oscar???
Oscar Tully
Sorry, Ella
I’ve forgot
LucElla Strong
thought U friend ‘ll kill me….
Oscar Tully
He seemed pretty enjoying kissing you
LucElla Strong

jealousy?
Oscar Tully
All is complicated, I’ve told you
LucElla Strong
he was fkng furious
“They’ve messed up some papers and we will be in your class from Monday. Lucky we. “ Ella sighed and fell to the grass near Oscar. “How long is this long break?”
“Hide me. She forced me sitting with her for the whole day” Aeron groaned taking a sit next to Davos, avoiding looking at Oscar.
“Do I see piercings? “ - He looked at Ella curiously.
“Five of them and all in one ear. All fresh. I think she had long hair and she cut it recently. She acts like she forgot it was missing “
Black cargo jeans, black T-shirt, dark hair and eyes. He turned slowly towards Davos. Dark hair, dark eyes, black cargo jeans and a black T-shirt. It was fucking weird. He chuckled and took his apple.
Davos leaned over and took a bite right out of his hand. He sighed and took a bite himself.
“I thought his type was more, how shall I put it, classic girly.” Davos took chocolate out of one of his pockets. “I'm not saying she's not pretty, but I'd ask where she got that bag from. “
“Oh fuck, it's just like yours,” Aeron took a bite out of the bar that was handed to him “only with more chains and have you seen him with a girl before?” Davos shook his head: “So that's his type. I'd rather wonder why he's her type cos he is kind of classic, but either way, they seem to get along well.”
Davos licked the melted chocolate off his finger. Fuck, he wanted those fingers in his mouth. Or around his neck. Stupid obsession, stupid day, stupid kiss, stupid everything.
“Oh, they're sharing a cigarette. That’s gross”
“You bit my apple and I just bit your chocolate.”
“That’s normal. Don’t forget to wake me. ” He lay down on the grass with his head on Aeron's lap.
“The hashtag is idiotsinlove. Are you saying they're not dating? ”
“Nope. The phase of fighting and arguing, such strange and odd phase as you are seeing now and phase of avoiding each other. Shake and repeat. You would say it's a slow burn. Very very slow and very annoying when you are a company of three. “ Oscar sighed and took a drag on his cigarette, passing it to Ella. “Let’s go together tomorrow? “ He tried to act casually.
“I thought you’d never ask. Was worried, you know.”
Oscar was looking at Davos not sure how to start conversation.
“How do I ask her to be my girlfriend? “
Davos choked on his water coughing “Girlfriend? You know each other for few weeks!”
“Oh, I just know what I want and with whom. Do I have to go around in circles for almost two years? Just dare to admit it!” Oscar said angrily.
“You want me to admit? Fine. I want him beneath me screaming my name or me beneath him screaming his. Whatever he wants.” There was a lot of desperation in his tone: “Am I going to do anything? Fuck no!”
“This is not the type of information I wanted to hear.” Oscar muttered to himself. “But why?”
“Just fuck off. What am I supposed to do? Ask and hear “no”? What if he’s straight? It is better this way” he leaned back heavily.
Oscar rolled his eyes. Idiots. Two. Fucking. Idiots.
Oscar
My idiot thinks Aeron is straight
He is afraid to ask
LucElla

D is B
A is G
O is S

Oscar
O_o
LucElla
oh.. I’ve sinned somewhere in the past life
got an idea
Oscar
💗
“I don't think you need to ask. Peeta Mellark.”
Aaron smiled: “Yeah, it's one of the few series where the ending, when the years go by and they have kids, makes so much sense. It's like she feels safe. Finally.”
“Oh fuck, marry me” Ella stared at Aeron.
“Sorry, no marry and hm no fuck. I’m not into ladies” he blushed like hell.
Oscar could barely keep himself from shouting “I’ve told you so!” at Davos. Davos stared at his textbook in disbelief.
“My Prince, my heart is broken. My Lord, please do not be jealous I was cut in the moment you must understand” Oscar laughed. She turned to Davos “ My.. “
“If you say 'horse', I'll kill you”– yes, a distraction. Just act like you always do, like nothing has happened. He'll think about it all later.
“As a Prince, I can make you a Knight,” Aeron and Oscar started laughing hysterically.
“I just wanted to ask who you would choose out of the two,” she thought deeply.
Davos saw and grasped at this straw. “Please don't start with “Edward or Jacob?”
“Oh, of course not. As the women at my brother's hospital told me, the correct answer is Bella's father. So ..... Sarah Connor or Ellen Ripley?”
“Aliens. Challenge accepted. Hard level,” he crossed his arms over his chest as he leaned back, “What would you say about Mia Corvere or Monza Murcatto?”
Oscar looked at Aeron questioningly and Aeron shrugged. Who the fuck was that?
“I would say that this threesome was the best I’ve ever read but sorry, Joe has Glokta… “
“With threesome and such tempting voice on Glokta I really wonder now what you two are reading” Aaron wondered, Oscar agreed.
They continued to look at each other and Davos nodded his head with a smile. “No proposal for me?” He sighed, putting his hands over his heart.
“That was really something, but it would be some kind of weird incest, sorry, bro.”
Oscar and Davos looked at the giggling Aeron. “You guys are like twins.”
“Oh yeah, it terrifies. Some Blackwood must messed up with some Strong. Or vice versa. My twin brother is nothing like me, well lucky me because I would not have full set of kidneys or lungs and I wouldn't be able to tell my grandchildren that creepy story about Grandma's first kiss” Ella winked at Aeron and continued to take notes.
Aaron looked at Oscar and noticed the angry look he gave to Davos.
The phone rang.
Ella quickly packed her staff, “Sorry, I need to hurry. I need to meet my grandma. Weird stuff with weird family. I'll call you later.” She gave Oscar quickly kiss on the cheek and ran out of the library.
Davos and Aeron were left under Tully's heavy gaze.
“Was it good?” Oscar turned to Aeron, “Fuck, you are blushing. Don't tell me that was your first one too?”
“And what if it was? You know, I don't have many options here.” Aeron replied quietly, trying not to look at Davos. Davos tried not to look at Aeron. Oscar sighed again.
“So… That… that does not count. For both of you. Yes, we will all just forget it ever happened. And if you dare mention it to our grandchildren, I will fucking kill you.” Oscar grabbed his stuff in his bag. He looked at them until they nodded and then walked away.
“Sometimes he's scarier than you are.”
“I'd take that as a compliment,” Davos chuckled.
LucElla
I’m back
Oscar came to their spot on the balcony. She stood there in the light of the stars, wiping away the last of her tears.
“Come here” Oscar gently wraps her in his arms. They just stood together quietly in silence watching stars and at each other.
“I’m fine. No need to worry.” Ella put her arms around his neck, and he leaned closer. The kiss was soft, gentle and delicate. It was slow and sweet and butterflies… yes, butterflies appeared in their stomachs. Not all relationships need fire. Some blossom in peace...

OK
Aeron had weird few days of thinking what to do. There was bigger problem that needed to be solved but today they were back with his class, and he had to do something to avoid sitting with Ella. She and Oscar were dating but she swore she wouldn't leave him alone and lonely so she would continue to sit with him during classes. Fuck.
He ran out of the house and bumped into Davos who was waiting for him.
“You are sitting with me and don’t you dare to refuse, Braken! I’m done with Ella this, Ella that and all other stuff!”
Aeron sighed with relief and hugged him “I’m saved by Blackwood! I was ready to beg you on my knees for this!”
Davos huffed. “Oh, I’d like to see it. What’s wrong on your side? She seems quite normal and doesn't mention Oscar in every talk”
“Well, you're talking about books if she is not with Oscar but I’m with her on lessons and during all short breaks and I can’t sleep well after her creepy hospital stories. She’s got lots of them! “
Davos laughed and reached into his bag “That’s for you” he handed him a book.
“For me? “House in the Cerulean Sea” Well you know I’m not into”
“Hush, You’ll like this one I promise. It is nice and cozy and no ripped heads and other stuff.”
“Unfinished with four more parts and a dead writer? “ Aeron laughed.
“Just shut up… and they were ten.”
Davos noticed that something was wrong. Not their usual wrong. Aeron was nervous, swore through his teeth seeing notifications on the phone, stayed later or running home earlier if he could. He asked Ella if he is like a girl with such a long hair. It was annoying. He never never compared him with a girl. Never told him such a shit. He adored the man he was, he liked his hair, he was obsessed with his body and his smile. Something was wrong and he was not the source of it. He waited but he was not asked for help. So be it, he’ll hunt on his own will.
Aeron never thought he would find himself in such situation. Some people just do not hear your “No”. Just do not want to hear it. He wondered who gave his number to this asshole. He blocked it, but received messages from other accounts. He saw him near the school, in their bookstore. Very often somewhere around. He didn't flirt, he didn't smile to him to cause such a fuss. He was not very sociable from their bubble of three and now four people. But this guy would approach him, try to talk to him, touch his hand, ask him out. At first it was annoying, but now it was creepy. He called him lovely Princess. Fucking cunt.
“Hands of him! Now! ” Davos clenched his fist, ready to hit.
“Oh, Aeron, nice try but I won’t believe. Sent him away and lets finally talk”
“Just! Fuck! Off! Nothing to talk about! I’ve told you!”
Davos liked his anger. This piece of shit wanted to believe. Oh, he got a wonderful idea.
He turned to Aeron and pressed his finger to his bottom lip. “Open,” - Aeron obeyed “Wider. Good boy” He ran his hand through his hair and kissed him. Pushed tongue inside, teasing, tasting.
Aeron felt like being fucked by his tongue and tried not to moan desperately begging for more. He needed him, he wanted him, he loved him, he almost cried when they parted. Davos pressed a gentle kiss to his forehead.
“Believable? Or should I break you something, so you won’t bother him anymore?” He pulls his boy closer, hides him on his chest.
“He’s gone” He put his head on his shoulder “You should have told us”
“He called me lovely Princess, fucking asshole”
“Nope, you are a Prince and I’m your Knight.”
“And that’s it. Like nothing happened. Ella, I just don’t know what to do. Three weeks passed and all is the same as it was before” he hid his face in his hands almost crying.
Ella took a deep breath “Do you want me to be hard on you or on him? ” He looked at her, not understanding “Just kiss him. I bet that idiot is suffering because he forced you and you didn’t want that kiss or some other fucking bullshit he came up with. “
“No, that's not possible”
“Hell yes, I’m right. He might seem fierce and confident, but he is also shy and insecure when it comes to you. It takes two for a relationship. You need to wake up and finally do something. If you need him, of course”
My Lady
Prayers and strength for you, my Lord.
We’ll need them…
My Lord

“Gotcha” Davos was sitting on the stairs. Aeron froze in disbelief. He was not mentally prepared, they were supposed to meet at school tomorrow, not now. He pulled out his keys, his hands were shaking, Davos walked silently with him to the apartment, closed the door behind them, turned him around, and pulled him towards the door.
“I saw you two. “
Fuck.
Davos took of his hood. Hair was not completely cut. The length was under his ears. His hand tucked a strand of hair behind Aeron’s ear.
It was enough for him, he was done with fear, with waiting, with hopes, with dreams and all other staff messed up in his head. He did as he was told to. He just pulled Davos and kissed him desperately, deeply, with all he had, with all he needed.
They broke apart, breathing heavily, gasping for air.
“Coat, shoes”. He dragged him to his room and pushed on the bed climbing onto his lap.
He kissed and was kissed, biting him as he wanted for so long, with his hands everywhere and nowhere at the same time. He took off his top, his skin was hot under his tongue. Gods, he was gorgeous.
“Stop! Wait!” Davos pushed him.
“I’m tired of waiting. Tomorrow you'll act like nothing happened. Again. I want you. I want it all.” It was pure anger, pure lust.
“Hey.” His hand gently stroked his back, “I’m not running away, “ a gentle kiss on the cheek ”I won’t act like shit tomorrow”, a kiss on the neck. “You have me”. Gentle bites followed by Aeron’s moans. “I've always been yours. I’m just... I was so afraid you didn't want me.”
“Idiot.” He hugged him leaning closer, ”Who knew my Knight is so shy?” He smiled when Davos blushed “Would you date me?” This time he kissed him gently.
“As you command, my Prince”
My Lady
They are holding hands
They both have hickeys
WTF?
My Lord
It is good, isn’t it?
My Lady
My Lord, I want a hickey…
My Lord
As you command, my Lady)))
