Chapter Text
∞----Juice and Chibs----∞
Chibs slowly regains his senses, feels his own breath cast back at his face as he pants against the wood of the door, can feel the leather of his cut warming with every ragged exhale against it from Juice and the lad's fingers are still clutching his hips in a death grip. His body is slumped in a boneless heap against the bedroom door and the weight of Juice's body is the only thing holding him upright. That, and the fact that he's still impaled on Juice's huge cock – which, amazingly, is still rock hard and twitching as he rides out the aftershocks of his orgasm.
“Got me confused wit' a hydrant, did ye, Juicy-boy?” he chuckles.
“Wh-wha?” he stutters through another ragged breath, the confusion evident in his voice and Chibs knows even though he can't see the lad's face that it is all scrunched up in that cute - he groans at the thought - way it does whenever Juice is confused.
“I ask'd if ye got me confused wit' a hydrant. Figgered ye did, wha' wit' the way ye's markin' yer territ'ry n'all …” Chibs chuckles and in doing so, squeezes himself tighter around Juice's pulsing cock, drawing a low throaty moan from the vicinity of what sounded like the lad's toes.
Juice finally catches on to what he meant and huffs a laugh.“Asshole.”
“Aye, I got one. An from tha feel'a ye, ye ain't nearly done wit' it yet, are ye Juicy-boy?” As he bares down on Juice again on purpose this time, the other man growls and his fingers bite into Chibs skin, the pain quickly ebbing to pleasure and his own cock is showing signs of renewed interest.
“Fuck!" Juice bites the back of Chibs' neck hard, his teeth sink into the skin deep enough to leave a mark then he growls at him, "Knock it off, Chibbie!”
“How'sbout ye just pull it out instead n' we go o'er on tha bed fer round two, aye?”
At the mention of the bed, he remembers the reason he had just fucked Chibs six ways to Sunday against the door and Juice's previously unrelenting erection immediately flags, a fact that doesn't escape Chibs' notice – mostly because he suddenly doesn't feel like he's being split half any more.
He had wanted to take him back to the bed to show the lad what he hasn't been able to say with words, but now he had no choice he was going to have to be honest with the lad, tell him how he really feels about him - he wishes he had a drink about now. He knows they need to hash this shite out quick before he loses the lad over something that didn't even happen. The little drama princess has a tendency to turn paper cuts into amputated limbs in his mind if left to think on something too long.
Juice's heart sinks to his stomach as Chibbie mentions the bed and thoughts of the Scot and Fiona sharing it last night set his teeth on edge. He withdraws from Chibs roughly as soon as he starts losing his hard-on and feels a grim satisfaction at the loud hiss of pain he hears from the man.
'Serves you right, fucker.' he thinks to himself as he tucks his softened cock back into his jeans, surrupticiously watching his lover - no, not his lover, not anymore - Chibs out of the corner of his eye as he does the same.
“Juice. Hey Juicy, listen to me.” Chibs has to walk around the boy to get his attention, his eyes are firmly locked on the bed. His face a blank mask, but his eyes burn with hatred like he wants to rip the thing to oblivion and set it ablaze. “Juicy, yer right, Fi was here last night an'-”
Juice's face contorts in a pained grimace as he holds up his hands and quickly backs away from Chibs as if burned. “I don't wanna hear the dirty details, man. I get it. It's over.”
Chibs' anger flares again at how easily Juice seems to be able to dismiss whatever this is between them. “Jus' like that? Yer done wit' me? Wha' tha fuck was'at then?" he shouted, gesturing towards the door. "Wanned ta git yer turn in? Or was it one last time for ol' times sake?”
“No, it wasn't- I just- FUCK! What the hell do you expect me to do, Chibbie? Share you? You wantin' a threesome or something? Is that what you're thinkin'? Cause lemme tell ya, that ain't never gonna fucking happen, man.” he hisses, his disgust at the thought showing clearly on his face.
“Donnae go puttin' words in ma mouth, Juicy-boy. I ne'er said tha's wha' I wanned now did I, lad?” He bites back the anger and huffs an exasperated sigh. He opens his mouth to continue, but Juice beats him to it.
“What the fuck do you want from me then, Chibbie?” He hears his voice waver, feels his eyes prickling with tears again and hates himself for the display of weakness – so much for keeping his dignity.
“Juicy ...” Chibs voice is soft, almost pleading and if it sounds like he is begging, he doesn't care. “She's here, when I got home last night,” Juice opens his mouth as if to say something, but Chibs holds up a stalling hand and continues speaking, “And before ye ask, I dinnae know she was in Charming when ye asked me. It's not ma fault, I dinnae-”
Juice can't contain himself anymore, he doesn't need to hear this, hell, doesn't want to hear this. He huffs a digusted laugh, “Is that supposed to make me feel better? You didn't know she was here when I asked you, so you didn't technically lie to me? But I'm supposed to just, what, be okay with the fact that you fucked her after? What kind of twisted shit is that?”
Juice knows he is reaching the end of his control over his emotions, he can hear the beginnings of tears in his voice as he yells at Chibs. He chokes back a sob as a tear breaks free and rolls down his cheek as he whispers, “Don't ask me to do that. I can't, bab--”
He looks away and swipes away the tear roughly with the back of his hand, the muscles in his jaw tight and trembling, knowing if he doesn't leave right now he's gonna start full-on crying in front of Chibs and that's the last thing he wants to do.
Chibs closes the distance between them and grabs Juice by the biceps. “Ju-” his voice falters and he swallows painfully around the lump in his throat, knowing he has to set the lad straight once and for all about last night or he will lose him – and he's not willing to think about how he'd survive that. Truth is, he's not sure he would - not without crawling inside a bottle for a good long while.
“Juicy, please look at me, luv. Please, I need ta know yer hearin' me. She was waitin' in ma bed fer me, naked as tha day she's born. Tha's why ye smelled her perfume. I tol 'er ta get 'er shite an get out, no' her place an'a more - in ma bed.”
He gently cups Juice's face in his hands, his thumbs stroking his lover's cheeks and tilts his face up so he can look him in the eyes. His own eyes lose the battle to hold in tears when the lad finally looks up and he sees the utter devastation on Juice's face.
“Oh, luv … are ye listenin'? I sen' her away fore an'a thin happened. Juicy, I did, I swear ta ye. Cos' I know why she's here, wha' she's tryin'a do an why … an it's no' gonnae work, luv, won' let it. Won' let er come tween us, sweetheart. S'all cos'a what she saw in Belfast – or more wha' she dinnae see in ma eyes an'a more when I look at 'er.”
“I don' love her an'a more, Juicy, an she knows it. Tha's why she came here like she did, got 'erself all cosied up in ma bed. Thought a lil' twist in'a sheets'd be enough ta turn it round fer 'er, get me on'er hook again. I told her 'm done … been done, tha' I love ye.”
Chibs cringes when he sees that Juicy has withdrawn so far inside himself, his eyes have that dead, faraway look. He has no idea at what point in his explanation Juice drifted out, but it is obvious lad missed all the important parts. “Did ye hear me, luv? Said I love you, Juicy-boy … I do. Have done a while now, jus no' man enough ta say it fore now.”
Juice knows Chibs is still talking, but he loses focus and the Scot's voice ebbs away to a dull murmur before any of the words can really register. He is beyond confused, his thoughts all a jumbled-up mess and tangled in emotions that he'd rather not feel. None of them are new, though, he's old friends with them all.
Rejection, betrayal, anger, disappointment, self-loathing all swell within him, threaten to consume him and leave him feeling utterly helpless as his world crumbles around him. Sadly for him, that's just a case of 'same shit, different day'. But it's worse this time because it's Chibs. Chibs has been his steadying support since the first day he rode in to Teller-Morrow, long before anything ever happened between them. If Chibbie doesn't want him …
Juice is so far detached from himself that he hears the first sobs wrack his own body more than he feels them, the sound muted as if from somewhere far off. He has shut down so completely, he never notices Chibbie's arms around him, trying to offer comfort. Chibs' arms are warm and solid around him, but he can't accept the reality of them, or of his strong hands as they run calm and soothing over Juice's back. Chibs' warm breath ghosts across the shell of his ear, as the other man whispers something to him over and over.
Chibs hears a sharp strangled sound from deep inside Juice and clutches him tighter, guiding them carefully to the floor when his boy's legs finally give out. His concern for the lad grows as he continues to get no response from Juice apart from the wracking sobs, his gaze still blank and unfocused.
Slowly, Chibs' repeated words break through the wall Juice has erected around himself, chipping away syllable by syllable. He's saying … 'Oh shit, I must've finally lost it … it sounds like he's saying ... he loves me.'
The Scot shakes Juicy roughly, his voice bordering on total panic now at his u responsiveness.
“Goddammit, fuckin talk ta me, Juicy!” He cups Juice's head firmly between his hands and presses their foreheads together, finally reduced to helpless begging. “Please luv, say somethin, an'athin, even if it's ta tell me wha'a right bloody bastard ye think I am.”
He stares into Juice's vacant eyes and can't hide the anguish in his voice, he's beyond caring now about showing Juice just how weak the lad makes him. “Juicy-” his voice cracks as the tears spill down his cheeks, “yer scarin the shite outta me, luv. Please, talk to me sweetheart.”
Juice feels oddly disconnected, like his mind and his body are just this much out of sync with one another. He sees and hears everything Chibs is saying and doing but it's as if it's on a time delay, or like he's dreaming, everything all blurred and muzzy at the edges. He hears Chibs telling him that he loves him – only him, in fact – and now he knows that he's gotta be dreaming, because if he's learned anything in his life it's that no one ever says those words to him because they mean it. Years have proved if something sounds too good to be true, then it is.
“I said I love ye, did ye hear me lad?” He crushes his lips against his boy's, kissing him like he never had before, pouring every emotion into that one kiss in hopes that it would bring Juicy round again. He tilts Juice's face to a better angle, their mouths slotting together like pieces of a puzzle as the ferocity of the kiss subsides into something softer, but retaining all the passion from the start of it.
Juice isn't responding at first, but gradually the haze begins to fade and Chibs' words and the sincerity in which he says them begin to truly sink in. 'He said he loves me. He and Fi didn't- he sent her away because he- because he loves me.', Chibs passion is warming him bit by bit, bringing him up from the depths of the cold despair he had sunk into as the warmth floods into him through their fused lips.
His mind is racing to catch up with reality. 'Jesus. All of this- the hurt and anger at Chibs ... what I almost threw away ... when he didn't even-...Christ, I'm a fuckin' asshole.'
Hysterical laughter slowly ripples through him when he finally gets it. Chibs pulls away from the kiss, startled by the abrupt change in the lad's behaviour and his concern turns to relief as he sees the light come back in Juicy's eyes and a bright, genuine smile on his face through his tears. Juice sees the concern on Chibs' face and his laughter ceases almost as quickly as it began. He stares at Chibs for what seems like an eternity before reaching a tentative hand out to stroke the side of his face, brushing away the wetness there and his brow furrows.
“I-” his voice cracks with emotion and he swallows thickly before trying again. “I'm so sorry, babe. I should have trusted you, should have known. I just- I mean, you know, it was her, Chibbie. If it was anyone else but her-”
“You'd what? Be okay wit it?” He waited for Juice to answer, hoping he'd say no because truth is, for the last few months, it took all the control he had to not pry the throngs of draping crow-eaters off the lad by their hair. He hated the necessity for them, but in order to keep from rousing the others' suspicions about the obvious bond he and Juicy share, they are a necessary evil - simply a means to an end.
“Truth? No ... I wouldn't be." He laughs halfheartedly and runs a shaky hand over his face adding, "I fucking hate having to watch those cunts drape themselves all over you … see them kiss you” his jaw tightens “watch them follow you to the dorms, knowing that you're gonna ... gonna fuck them-” his nostrils flare in anger and he rolls his shoulders as if shaking off the image then quickly continues, “but I know we have to or too many people will start to question us. Doesn't mean I have to like it though. Honestly? Made me think about doing some pretty fucked-up shit to 'em, too.”
Chibs lets out a visible sigh of relief and chuckles. “Jesus, boy, I figgered tha' it was jus me wantin to do things to'm, thought I was losin' it, - thinkin'a doin things I's brought up never to do to a woman.” He presses their foreheads together again and kisses him softly. “What a pair the two of us make, eh luv?” he whispers against Juice's lips.
“Yeah, we do. Pair of what I don't know, but we…” He flashes a filthy grin as he climbs onto Chibbie's lap and their groins rub against one another, closing his eyes and moaning obscenely. “unh yeah, definitely fit together perfectly.” He licks a stripe up the Scot's neck to his earlobe and gently sucks it into his mouth while emphasising his statement with a seductive roll of his hips, both actions causing Chibs to inhale sharply and thrust up against him.
He panted roughly against Juice's shoulder, his voice throaty and seductive, “Aye luv, an tha way tha cock'o yers fit perfect in ma arse … felt bloody fantastic, lemme tell ye. Had me gone wit'out ye even touchin ma cock, dinnae ye boy?” the whispered words in his ear send a shock of pleasure down his spine as Chibs fingers clutch his hips, rubbing their denim-clad erections against each other roughly.
“Oh fuck, Chibbie … you felt so damn good. You were so tight around my cock and unh, so fuckin' hot. Christ … I could fuck you forever." He grabs Chibs' hand and presses it to his cock, rutting into it shamelessly. "Fuck … you feel how hard it makes me just thinking about it, babe? My cock in your ass ... fucking you?” Juice whispers tauntingly in the Scot's ear, then arches his back moaning as Chibs squeezes him tighter, his face a picture of ecstasy.
“Ye cannae wait ta sink tha big fat cock'o yers in ma arse agin, can ye, boy? Tha wha yer gonnae do, lad? Gonnae fuck me agin, luv? ” Chibs is panting hard beside Juice's ear now, shamelessly rutting against Juice til his cock is steadily weeping and dampening the fabric of his jeans. He trails wet, greedy, open mouth kisses up and down the tanned neck as Juice wriggles in his lap.
Juice pulls the Scot's hair hard and revels in the guttural groan he draws from the man and licks a stripe up to his lover's ear to taunt him again. “I think you want me to fuck you again, don't you, babe? Got a taste of my cock inside you and now you can't get enough? Is that it? You love having my cock inside you, don't you? Filling you up, fucking you til you see stars …” he pauses, panting breath after breath hotly in Chibs' ear then licks the shell of it before whispering, “cumming ... inside you?”
“Jesus Christ, luv!” Chibs crushes his mouth to Juice's, his tongue frantically exploring the hidden depths. He breaks the kiss and pulls up Juice's t-shirt, latching his mouth around an exposed nipple while quickly pebbling the other between thumb and forefinger, his tongue teasing and teeth nipping the tender flesh. Juice's writhing quickly becomes too much and his hands clutch desperately at the smooth expanse of Juice's back, trying to pull him closer. Juice pulls his t-shirt the rest of the way off then grabs Chibs by the nape of his neck, pulling Chibs' head closer as he moves to the other nipple.
“Oh fuck, babe, feels so good.” Juice presses a kiss to the top of Chibbie's head, his hands sliding down broad shoulders to the Scot's cut and up under it, pushing it off the man. As Chibs kisses his way up his throat, Juice grabs the hem of the other man's shirt, pulling it up and off in one motion, the removal of the fabric briefly separating Chibs' hungry mouth from his skin. Unsteady hands reach for the thin scarf around the man's neck and are immediately stilled.
“Leave it.” the lust-laden command goes straight to Juice's cock and he feels it twitch as a bead of pre-cum rolls slowly down the underside of his shaft, quickly seeping into his boxer briefs and he moans in pleasure at the sensation.
A devilish grin of understanding spread across Juice's face. “Liked how amazing it felt when I tightened it around your throat before, huh? Made you cum harder and longer, didn't it, babe? Bet you want me to do it again.” Juice taunted the Scot, his hot breath ghosting over Chibs' ear and the man rewarded him with a desperate keen, his face flushing crimson. “You do, you kinky bastard.” he chuckles fondly, wide grin spread across his face.
“Please.” Chibs was so far gone, his cock now painfully aching for release, he really had no idea anymore what he was even asking for, he just needed to cum so badly. It still amazes him how easily Juice can get him going, how he can get him so hard and ready to burst from just kissing and rutting against each other, make him desperate for it - something he'd never experienced before, even with Fi.
Juice leans back awkwardly to untie Chibs' boots, while the Scot leans forward so as not to lose contact with Juice's body. Luckily, Juice has no trouble reaching his own laces as well from his position and makes quick work of them. He pulls off both of their boots and socks in record time and pushes Chibs flat on his back on the floor. Grinning, he slowly slides his body along the Scot's, settling his hips down between Chibbie's thighs, pressing their cocks together as he surges forward and takes Chibs' mouth in a brutal kiss.
Chibs returns the kiss with equal enthusiasm, his hands roving wildly over Juice's body, never content to stay still for more than a second. He slides his hands down inside the back of Juicy's jeans, grabbing the lad's arse cheeks, his fingers flexing as he holds him still and thrusts his hips. His breath hitches as he feels the sudden pressure around his throat, his eyes following the line of scarf and stopping on Juice's fist which is wound tightly in the ends. Juice is staring into Chibs' eyes during the kiss and he watches while he twists the scarf ends around his hand, sees the eyes darken the second he feels the constriction. The lust in his eyes isn't the only sign of just how much Chibbie's getting off on having his oxygen restricted – the man is hard as a fucking rock beneath him.
Juice suddenly realises how little it will take to make Chibs cum just like this and the power of it thrills him. While he will love nothing more than to watch the man unravel like that for him one day soon, right now his cock is craving the kind of release that he now knows he will only achieve inside Chibs.
Chibs is lost so deep in the kiss and the decrease of oxygen, it takes a second longer than it should for him to realise that Juicy's gotten up and is tugging him to his feet by his scarf. It feels like nothing he's experienced before and while he does have his kinks, this had never been one he'd thought to try – until Juice, that is – now he wonders why the fuck they had never done it sooner.
“Take 'em off, babe.” Chibs just stares at him, blissed-out confusion all over his face. Juice chuckles, “Your pants, get 'em off...” and when he sees Chibs make no move to comply, he barks out just one word, “NOW.”
Chibs springs to action, hastily unfastening his pants and shoving them down, his cock springing up against his belly, finally free from the confines of his jeans. He quickly kicks them to the side and stares at Juice, one eyebrow raised in challenge, a filthy grin spreading across his face as he eyes Juice's pants. Juice tugs down hard on the scarf, dragging Chibs down to his knees, putting him at eye-level with Juice's straining erection. His breath stutters as he watches Chibs lick his lips in anticipation, just seconds before the Scot leans forward and mouths at Juice's cock through the damp fabric.
Chibs' hands work the belt, button and zip in rapid succession and before Juice has a chance to even feel the cool air on his exposed skin, Chibs takes him down to the root, moaning like a whore, greedily sucking every trace of pre-cum from his swollen cock. Juice winds his free hand through Chibs' hair, holding his head still as he thrusts his cock deep into the wet warmth. After a few strokes and a desperate keen from Chibs that threatened to be his undoing, Juice's knees buckle and he grips Chibs' shoulder with his free hand to steady himself. As he backs up a step, his cock falls from Chibbie's mouth with a filthy 'pop'. Chibs is then yanked to his feet by the scarf and Juice kisses him roughly, his tongue seeking his own taste in Chibs' mouth.
He pulls back from the kiss grinning and Chibs can't help but tease him, “Like tha taste a'yerself on ma tongue, Juicy-boy?”
With eyes locked on Chibs, he grazes his thumb over the slick head of the other man's cock, reveling in the way Chibbie's eyes shutter closed then open again as he brings it to his lips. His cock weeping as his lover's eyes widen when he slowly and seductively licks it off. “Mmm, I do, but you taste so much better, babe.”
Chibs closes the distance and slams their bodies together, attacking Juice's mouth, completely consumed with the overwhelming need to have Juice inside him again. “Ye gonna stop playin' round wit me an git to it, Juicy?”
He shoves Chibs backward on the bed. “What if I wanna hear you beg for it, huh?” he taunts, crawling up Chibs naked body, trailing kisses up his thighs, ghosting hot breaths over his twitching hole. “Come on, beg me for my cock.”
“That what ye ... wanna hear Juicy?" He pants, his hips squirming as Juice teases his hole. "Hear me say that I want yer big, fat cock in me, want ye ta fuck me? Fine. Fuck. Me. ”
“Oh fuck.” he sucks Chibbie's earlobe into his mouth and nips it. “Say it again, babe, please.” His cock weeps shamelessly as his lover begs to be fucked.
Chibs hand searches blindly on the top of the nightstand - the last place he remembers seeing their lube - and once found, presses it into Juice's waiting hand. “Want ye ta fuck me … now, Juicy. Fuck me hard, luv. I wanna come from jist yer cock." he pleads as he fists his own slick cock, staring dead into Juice's eyes, grin firmly on his face.
Juice wastes no more time, quickly slicking his cock, but can't stop himself from teasing Chibs by slowly circling a lube-slick finger around the man's twitching hole, pressing on it teasingly. “Juicy...” the warning tone of the word is not lost on Juice who quickly positions his aching cock. Chibs cants his hips as Juice breaches and begins a gentle slide in to the hilt. Even with the previous fuck, it's still a tight fit and it takes Chibs a moment to adjust – the lad is by no means lacking in length (or girth) – and pain gives way to immense pleasure almost immediately.
Juice is overwhelmed by emotion to see Chibs so open and unashamed to beg. “Love you, babe, so much-”
He cups Juice's face and nods. “Aye, lad, I know. Love you too, Juicy.” He kisses him softly and Juice melts into it, moaning softly then groaning when he nips the lad's lower lip as he pulls away. “Now fuck me.”
Juice immediately does as he's told, dragging out the pleasure by withdrawing slowly then ramming back in hard and deep. He watches in awe as Chibs arches his back off the bed with that first thrust, his eyes rolling up and his lids shuttering over them. He purposely avoids touching the small bundle of nerves for a few minutes to drive Chibs crazy with want, to keep him on the edge as long as possible wanting to watch the man come undone beneath him.
Chibs is climbing higher with every stroke, the stimulation from feeling every ridge and vein of Juice's cock massaging his insides almost electric. Juicy's controlling the fuck and he knows the lad's purposely denying him that extra buzz a direct hit to those nerves will incite, but it feels so fucking right that he lets him until he just can't take anymore. He tries in vain to roll and raise his hips to make him hit it, but the lad's too smart for that and counters every attempt.
He's panting for breath, his heart racing already and his cock is like a goddamn leaky faucet – and while he's loving every fucking second of it, he needs to come – and he tells the lad so. “Bloody hell, Juicy, stop muckin' about an fuck me. I ain't gonna break, ye numpty. Harder!”
If Juice thought he was amped before, Chibbie's command is like a shot of crank and his adrenaline surges, his motions quickened to almost inhuman proportion as he fucks the Scot within an inch of his life. Watching Chibs writhing in ecstasy beneath him, alternating between clutching Juice's sweat-slick skin and wrenching the sheets in his fist, muttering in what Juice can only guess is Gaelic as he nails the man's prostate with every furious thrust just spurs him on.
Chibs feels like his heart just might explode if he doesn't come soon. He's been riding the crest for so long and coupled with his cock getting constant stimulation with every move of Juice's hips from where it's pressed now between their stomachs - he's not gonna last much longer. He knows he's beyond coherent at this point, his brain won't work, can't form thoughts in English and he could really give a fuck less. He could die right now happily with Juice's cock embedded deep in his arse – his first true religious experience, he thinks.
Juice keeps up the frantic pace he's set, racing them both to what promises to be an orgasm like none either man has had before if Chibs' writhing and moaning is any indication. Juice bends down to kiss the Scot and his tongue is greedily sucked into the other man's hot mouth. He feels the end of Chibs' scarf tickle his chest and grins against the swollen lips beneath his as his hand once again winds itself in the fabric, limiting the other man's oxygen intake.
Chibs feels the scarf tighten and his vision starts to darken around the edges as Juice drives into him harder than ever. The last moment of awareness is the image of Juicy's flushed face as he moans, “Oh fuck, babe … can't … gonna- Oh, God-” and bright white flashes blind him as he cums hard, shooting rope after thick rope of spunk between their sweaty stomachs and he feels the warmth spread inside him as Juice's hips stutter and still.
Then everything goes dark.
Juice collapses onto Chibbie's chest, gasping for air and shaking uncontrollably. It takes a moment to realise that Chibs has gone completely still beneath him. He immediately panics, wondering if maybe he had tightened the scarf too tightly and accidentally strangled the man.
Chibs finally takes in a huge breath, opening his eyes and Juice lets out a shaky sigh of relief. Chibs sees the panic briefly before it fades and cups the side of Juice's face with a shaky hand. “Worried ye'd fucked me ta death?” he snorts.
“That's not funny, asshole. You like, stopped breathing and shit.” he replies shakily. Chibs kisses him soft and slow, pouring as much reassurance as possible into the kiss and sighing when he feels Juice relax.
“Tha's twice today ye fucked me stupid. Tha gonna b'come a habit, then?”
“God, I hope not. The unconscious part, I mean. It's some scary shit to witness.” A slow grin spreads across his face. “Does wonders for my ego, though.”
Chibs barks out a hearty laugh. “As it should, love, as it should.”
They settle into a comfortable silence for long minutes before Juice finally whispers, “I really am sorry, babe. I should have trusted you, given you a chance to explain like you would have done for me. It's just Fi-”
“Ey, none of that now. Ye had e'ry right ta think it. I know I's a right bastard ta ya in Belfast, ignorin ya the way I did, it's just seeing my Kerrianne again-”
“You love her, you're her dad. I totally get that. And Fiona's her mom-”
Chibs tilts Juice's face so he can look him in the eye. “An I'll always love 'er fer givin me ma daughter, but 'm not in love wit 'er an'amore. She made 'er choice years ago – he smiles sadly, tugging at Juice's heart - an it wasn't me. 'Sides someone else snuck in an stole ma heart when I wasn't lookin.”
“Me?”
“Aye, you, ya numpty.” He cuffs the back of his head then kisses him softly, “Now if we're done rowin an makin up, how's about we get some sleep, cos somebody wore ma old arse out.” Silence falls again and Chibs thinks Juice has fallen asleep until he hears a whispered.
“Hey Chibbie?”
He grunts in response.
“I love your old ass.”
He presses a small kiss to Juice's temple. “Aye, ma old arse loves ye too. Just not twice in one day, eh? Don't think'll be sittin proper fer least a week.”
Juice just grins as he falls asleep, secure in the arms of the man he loves – and who loves him.
