Work Text:
Their apartment was filled with white noise of the rain, drumming steadily against their window. Flux leaned over his desk, squinting at his monitor while Saps was sprawled across his bed, bored.
“Youve been staring at that code for hours now.” Saps said lazily. “Don’t you think you should take a break.”
Flux didn't move, keeping his attention focused on his screen. “I actually finish my projects before the due date, unlike someone i know.”
Saps frowned slightly. “Hey, I work well under pressure, it's not like I don't get them done.”
“You panic under pressure,” Flux shot back, his fingers typing away at his keyboard. “You nearly bashed your screen in after your project wouldn't upload at 11:58pm.”
“That never happened." Saps slid off the bed, lazily walking towards the desk where Flux was working. He leaned against the table as he reached out to grab Flux’s jaw, forcing his eyes off the screen. “Seriously though, take a break this is why you need glasses.”
Flux peeled his eyes off the monitor as his head was forcefully turned, glaring up at Saps although he could feel his pulse quicken. “Quit distracting me.”
“Thats’ the entire point.” Saps murmured back, his hand migrating from the other’s jaw to the back of his neck, pulling him upwards, closing the remaining distance in an instant.
For a second, Flux’s hands remained on his keyboard, his mind still stuck in the lines of code on his screen. But Saps tilted his head, deepening the kiss that completely shattered whatever self control Flux had left, his hands leaving the keys to reach up and grab the fabric of Saps’ shirt, pulling him closer.
The kiss didn’t even start innocently, Saps’ mouth moving in a way as if purposely trying to erase Flux’s focus, tasting like the iced tea he had been drinking all afternoon. When Saps’ tongue slipped past his lips, slick and teasingly, Flux gave in, completely forgetting about whatever he was doing just minutes ago.
Saps shifted his hands from his neck, sliding down to pull Flux up by his collar, forcing him to stand up from his chair. He used his momentum to spin them around the crammed space between the desk and the mattress before pressing forward, pinning Flux on the bed beneath him.
Flux hit the bed with a soft thud, the breath knocked out of him. He looked up at Saps who was hovering above him, saliva glistening on his parted lips, his hands trailing up to the back of his neck.
“Wait hold on” Flux whispered breathlessly, stopping Saps who was already leaning back down to claim his lips again. Flux reached up, hooking the side of his glasses and pulling them off his face, blindly tossing them onto a pillow, his face turning crimson under Saps’ intense gaze.
Saps didn't waste a beat before leaning back down, his free hand sliding up Flux’s jaw to tilt his head up, holding him in place for better access. He drove his lips back onto Flux’s aggressively, swallowing the other’s gasp before it could escape his throat
Flux’s fingers unconsciously dug into Saps’ shoulders before moving to thread themselves through the strands of white hair. He gave a sharp tug, making Saps hiss in pain before nipping on his lower lip in retaliation.
After a while, Saps slowly began to shift his focus, his lips straying from Flux’s lips to trail over his jaw before biting lightly at the skin underneath his ear.
Flux let out a sharp gasp, rolling his head to the side as his eyes screwed shut. His hands shifted to bury into the hair at the back of his head, holding him firmly in place. Saps took the invitation and buried his face into the crook of his neck, pressing bruising kisses down his throat. He stopped to sink his teeth right over Flux’s pulse point, drawing a high pitched whine from his lips.
The sound only fueled Saps, dragging Flux’s collar down and moving his mouth lower to bite the skin right above his collarbone, dragging his tongue over it immediately after to sooth the mark. Flux could only lie there, completely pinned underneath his body, radiating warmth as Saps consumed him.
The next morning, Flux stood in front of his bathroom mirror, looking in disbelief at his own reflection. Purple bruises bloomed over his entire neck, completely impossible to hide. He had classes to go to, and wasn’t about to step outside the dorm looking like this.
And so, 10 minutes later, he was knocking on the door of Cynikka’s place down the hall.
She answered the door holding a mug of coffee, still in her pajamas and her hair still messy from sleep. “What could my baby brother possibly need at 8 in the morning.” She muttered, opening the door wider to let him in.
“Do you have any of that skin colored cream? Like the thick kind?” Flux said, refusing to look her in the eye, a hand covering his neck.
Cynikka raised an eyebrow, setting her mug down on the kitchen counter. “You mean concealer?”
“Yeah whatever you call it.”
She eyed him suspiciously. “I do have it. Why on earth would you need it?”
“No reason.”
“Flux, tell me or I'm not giving it to you.”
Flux drew in a sharp breath, knowing he wasn’t going to get out of the humiliation. He reluctantly dropped his hand from his neck, tilting his head enough to show the marks spread over his neck.
“Ah.”
Cynikka didn’t say another word, a glint of amusement flashing across her eyes before she turned and headed for her bathroom. Flux trailed behind her, his face burning red.
She pulled out a small tube and a sponge out of her makeup bag. “Tilt your head up and don't move.” She ordered, gently dabbing the cream over his skin. “So who was it? Was it a girl from your lectures?”
Flux froze, staring aggressively at his reflection in the mirror. “It’s not a her,” he mumbled, his face getting redder by the second.
Cynikka blinked, her hand pausing mid air. “No way.”
Flux winced slightly. “Yeah, it was Saps.”
Cynikka’s jaw dropped, letting out a loud gasp as he hand reached up to cover her mouth in shock. “Saps as in your roommate Saps?? I knew there was something going on with you guys!”
“Oh shut up will you.” Flux grumbled.
Cynikka rolled her eyes, smoothing out the last of the concealer. “Just next time he uses you as a chew toy tell him to keep it under your collar.”
