Better Together

MINORS DNI

Aaron shows Smartass his new office. They are unable to keep things safe for work.

Explicit, 3.3k words

“So this is your new office?” they ask as they look around. “It looks a lot like Pete’s old office.”

“I wonder why,” Aaron says sarcastically.

They laugh, tucking themself into his side. “Well I love what you’ve done with the place.” 

It really was nice. This office had a much better view than his last one and the furniture filled the space nicely. “Wait, go sit at your desk! I want to see what you look like at work.”

He scoffs. “You already know what I look like at work.”

“But I don’t know what you look like in this office,” they smirk. “I want to see, so go.” They shoo him away with a wave of their hand.

“I actually do have a little bit of paperwork to fill out while we’re here if you want to see me actually work.”

They raise an eyebrow at him. They had only stopped by the office on their way to dinner; it was on the way and Smartass was dying to see his new space. 

“How long will it take?”

“Not long, I’m sure,” he says, already gathering the papers on his desk and starting to fill them out.

They move behind his desk chair and lean over his shoulder to look at the paperwork. 

Boring shit. Exactly what they expected. 

With their hands idly massaging his shoulders, their mind starts drifting to the last time they visited him at work. Kneeling underneath his desk to suck him off, Aaron knocking things off his desk to bend them over it, the taste, sound, feel of him.

My first audition for a (main stage) college show is today!! I’ve decided to just go in relaxed and with no expectations, considering I haven’t really had time to practice and I’ll have more opportunities later :)
