   Summary

   The first time it happened, they were drunk off of cheap, stolen beer, whispering and giggling like a couple of teenage girls gossiping about their new school crush.

   Boris was laid, sprawled on top of Theo, staring wistfully up at the ceiling, barely illuminated by the TV playing some random garbage. He had shifted, his face falling near Theo’s bicep.

   Then Boris struck— craning his neck for a better angle, clamping down hard enough that draws blood to the surface, his skin turning an angry red.

   OR

   Boris has a nasty biting habit; Theo is almost always littered in bite mark shaped bruises.

   Boris is not sorry.
