Chapter Text
The sun shines directly onto Stu’s bed. It's hot enough to wake him up, a sharp headache keeping him from falling back asleep. His whole body ached, but the night before was a blur, only remembering vague details throughout. Getting up he immediately feels cold again, apparently at some point last night he ended up naked, so he slips into his oversized red robe (well it’s his dad’s but that’s neither here nor there). Quickly grabbing whatever clean enough clothes he can find before stumbling off to his bathroom, he notices his legs burning with each step. Only now he starts to remember someone being in bed with him the night before, 'Did they do this? Damn that’s hot… is that bad to think..?' meh, Stu shook off the notion, he’s thought far worse. Stepping into the bathroom, not bothering to shut the door, he glances up to look at himself in the mirror finally getting a proper look at himself.
The right side of his neck is covered in hickeys, they trail up from to his jaw and behind his ear. Sliding off his robe he sees bite marks on his right shoulder and collarbone. In fact there’s bruises scattered all along his torso, hips, there’s even bite marks on his thighs, no wonder they burned so bad. It felt like he’d just escaped a shark attack with how beaten up he was.
Honestly seeing his beat up state it got him intrigued, Stu’s usually the one in control, or at least in a more authoritative position, even outside of the bedroom. In normal social environments people don’t mess with him, he was well liked enough that you’d look like an asshole to try him. But he’s also really fucking tall, 6’4” to be exact, and that would intimidate basically anyone from fighting him. So seeing himself in such a disheveled state is exciting. He loved the idea of being pinned down and used, so he’d just won the lottery with this mysterious one night stand.
He tries focusing on who he was with, the vague details of what he saw when he was woken up in the middle of the night but everything is still too shaky to make out any concrete details, he got himself ready for the day while his memory failed him. His parents were coming home in a few days so he didn’t get to push off the cleaning, he groaned not wanting to deal with his hangover while he worked. Glancing at himself one more time before leaving the bathroom, grinning at himself before turning to go downstairs. He looked almost normal, noting the manic glint in his eyes.
As he walked down the steps, the faint sound of his tv echoed through the foyer. It made him a little hopeful to find who was with him last night. Sneaking up behind the couch he sees Billy absently watching the screen, looks like he helped himself to Stu's kitchen chewing on a bagel, oblivious to Stu’s looming. It’s something he takes a small pride in, despite his size, he can move almost completely silently if he wanted to, able to get right behind someone and they’d never notice, unless of course he’d want them to. A giant grin grew on his face, before getting right behind Billy before loudly greeting him.
–
Billy was enjoying his quiet morning, he’d been relaxing on Stu's couch mindlessly watching whatever was on. He didn’t sleep much after running away from the bedroom, thinking through the night, he thought he’d be a lot more uncomfortable with everything he committed. It was like switch had flipped in his head, although he was disgusted that he sucked Stu's dick, fucking swallowing his cum he realized, he was so unreasonably satisfied with how Stu responded to him, almost instantly agreeing to murder that being gay was suddenly far lower on his list of concerns. Sure he could pass it off as Stu being too drunk and horny to really understand what was being asked, but knowing he could get Stu to agree at all got him excited. His little murder conspiracy was starting to actually become promising.
He heard Stu stumbling upstairs, preparing himself for their conversation not knowing if he wanted him to remember what they did or not. Redirecting his attention back to the screen, he not noticing the taller boy sneaking up behind.
“Billyy!!” Stu shouted into his ear, causing him to jump back. “What are you still doing here big guy!” His voice was overly cheery.
“Asshole-” Billy grabbed Stu's face and shoved it back. He glared and the taller man, who had a mischievous grin on his face, obviously happy with the reaction. “Don’t yell into my ear like that!”
“Oh I’m sooo sowwy” Stu tilted his head, pouting, “Don’t be mad at me baby” he cackled at his own joke keeping a smug smile on his face while he stared at Billy. Before stepping over the couch, falling into the middle while his eyes focused on the tv. “Anyway you didn’t tell me why you’re still here. Could’ve sworn I kicked everyone out.”
Billy glanced at the tv before talking, Stu noting purplish-red marks all over the left side of his neck, his eyes slightly widened, not able to comment on them before Billy started speaking.
“Do you not remember what I told you last night?” Billy’s tone was more confused rather than annoyed, trying to test the waters without revealing too much.
“Nah,” Stu flashed him a smile, “I only remember a couple of things.”
Billy sighs, turning his body to face him better, “I told you I’d help you clean, guess I could’ve skipped out on it.”
Stu suddenly sits up, “Oh wait!” Billy held his breath while Stu continued, “Did you see anyone leaving the house?”
Billy gives him a confused stare. “..No?” He glances down at Stu’s hickeys, impossible to hide from anyone. He smiles, almost fond of his work, “What? You looking for your date? Casey would be disappointed in you.”
“HAHA. who cares what she thinks, she’s totally cheating on me already. Only reason I haven’t dumped her yet is cause’ I haven’t found a replacement.” A nasty sneer was plastered on his face. “I wanted to find the crazy chick who did this,” gesturing to his neck “I only caught a glimpse of her tho”
Billy hummed, he was starting to get nervous again
“But I saw her against my chest, man,” Stu turned away from the tv to look at Billy, “She had like, shorter dark hair and uh, I saw her shoulder, I had..uh-” Stu trailed off, finally getting a proper look at Billy’s hickeys. Billy was wearing a wife beater, so he was a lot more exposed than Stu, and Stu saw a bite mark on his shoulder, in the same place he bit his one night stand. “And um-I bit her shoulder..” Stu’s two trains of thought crashed into each other as the dots connected. “..I-uh guess that’s all I know, um” He slowly sank into the couch, his face turning pale.
“You good dude?” Billy elbowed him.
“Yeah, yeah. I’m all good, just-uh” Stu’s eyes darted around the room, “I just um, ha-” his eyes landed back on Billy’s neck, did they..? ‘No. No, that’s silly Billy has a girlfriend…I have a girlfriend and I’m still into him though’ “Uh-” Stu surprised himself with that realization
“Dude,” Billy interrupted him, “Stop that, you’re acting annoying.” He pushed the taller boy playfully.
Stu gave a forced laugh as a response, “Alright, yesh” His brain was working fast, he’d never really thought Billy was gay, especially not the freaky mix he was. Billy was dating Sidney, he would flirt with girls before they got together, and sure he’s never commented on any of the women in the movies they’d watch, but that just meant he was picky. Billy never dated anyone before Sidney so that had to be it, picky.
“So uh-” Stu began, “Do you remember last night at all..?”
“Yeah, I remember plenty,” Billy let out a dry laugh.
“Soooo, who were you with,” Stu leaned in, his voice was full of giddy, intentionally amping up his childishness.
“Sidney, who else?” Billy’s tone almost had an edge of mockery in it.
“Sid wouldn’t leave marks,” Stu moves to slowly trap Billy on the couch.
“Fuck off, like you’d know.”
“I know enough from all your complaining” Stu shot back, his arms moving to block Billy into the corner of the couch. “You really want me to believe someone gentle like her would leave that kind of mark on you, they’re huge dude!” Not realizing he was complimenting his own work.
“What do you care?" Billy huffed, obviously annoyed by Stu trapping him, “Get off of me.” He doesn’t budge when Billy tries to push him. He tries a few more times but man, Stu can really become a heavy ass bolder when he wants to.
Stu looks at Billy for a moment with a confused expression, this scene was weirdly familiar to him. Looking back at the bite mark on the brunette’s shoulder, his brain comes up with a brilliant idea.
“Hey Bills can I do something kinda weird,”
“You’re already being weird enough, dick-”
Stu takes the comment as a yes. Leaning closer to the bite mark he slowly opens his mouth to line up with the markings.
Billy’s eyes widen in a panic, “No- NO Stu do not-“ he can’t finish the sentence before his hand comes flying up to cover his mouth, desperately trying to stop a whine from pouring out as Stu gently bites down. Asshole could’ve easily compared the bite mark in a million different ways, but that would mean he would have to think before he acts.
Stu sticks his tongue out feeling for a mark that doesn’t match up with his bite, oblivious to Billy’s panic beneath him. It’s a perfect match, even matching his crooked bottom teeth in the front.
… oh my god. Oh my GOD. He?? With Billy??? His brain is working overtime, trying to fill in the gaps in his memory best he can while he sinks back onto the couch. Not even trying to hide the extremely knowing and excited expression plastered on his big dumb face.
‘Billy?? My Billy?? He actually likes me, me!! He’s mine, I can’t believe I don’t remember-FUCK’ he was quietly cackling to himself, his brain drifting off into different fantasies as he admired Billy’s face.
Billy glares at him in return, straining his jaw while desperately trying to say something. He’s so pissed and embarrassed, this was NOT how this conversation was supposed to go. This was meant to be him convincing Stu to plan a murder, he’s been totally thrown off track and has no way to course correct. Even with the obvious murderous intentions radiating off of the shorter boy, Stu takes the stunned silence as an opportunity to interrogate.
-
“Soooo,” Stu begins, his voice giddy, “you mind giving some answers this time? Or are you gonna run away again,”
“What did you want me to say?” Billy spat
“Geez Billy I don’t know” he raised his arms up, waving them as he continues, “maybe tell me if we fuck, it’s kinda important information to know. I wanna know if you actually give a shit or not.” His tone growing more frustrated.
“Look I-” Billy paused trying to calm himself down he can’t lash out, “I didn’t want to make anything weird between us. I like what we have now I don’t want to damage that-”
“Why would that change anything?”
“I don't know! What could I even tell Sidney and- and what would you say to Casey?” He conveniently leaves out the part of needing Sidney to stay close to Maureen, “It’s not like we could be open about what we’re doing anyway.”
Stu laughed at that, “they don't need to know. We already a lot of time together, would either really think anything is up.”
“I mean, don’t you like Casey..?"
“I already told you man, the relationship is basically already over” Stu seemed humored by talking about her, “she’s pretty but, eh. What about you and Sid?”
Billy shook his head, “I don't think I’ve ever liked Sid."
The two were silent, their confessions hanging in the air. Seems like both of them didn’t really have any fight left in them. The TV was the only thing breaking through the quiet while they watched each other. Billy considered his options, it was obvious his feelings were reciprocated but it was scary. The only other person he really loved was his mom, and she abandoned him when she found out about his dad cheating on her. What if Stu leaves him too. He sighs to himself, this whole thing is stupid, he still needs Stu (for the plan ofc) maybe he should be a little nicer at least for now.
“Stu?”
“Hm?” Stu tilts his head.
Billy hesitates for a moment before leaning in and kissing Stu, it was soft and nervous. Stu takes a second before responding, deciding not to try to press for more. Billy, wrapping one arm around Stu's waist, the other snaking its way into the dirty blond’s hair. They break the kiss for air, Billy taking the opportunity to lean back into the couch. Billy presses his back against the armrest to stay more upright while Stu lays his head on the shorter boy’s chest, his arms wrapping around Billy’s torso how’d even they’d fit. They watched the tv for a moment, when a commercial came on Billy spoke up again.
“I can’t promise anything, this is all I can give you for right now” Billy contemplated his next sentence carefully “I need to figure some stuff out, alright?”
“..Alright…Can we at least stay like this for a little longer?”
“..Yeah”
…
“Hey Bills?”
“Hm?”
“You’re still gonna help me clean.”
Billy sighed, “Fine.” Stu snorted at his response. The two stayed wrapped together and for the first time there wasn’t anything to end the moment early, they just quietly watched tv together. Billy gently pet Stu’s head and Stu just wishes he had his camera to capture them for his collection.
