#Self indulgent hc's catered to me specifically bc why not

[derelictlovefool]

Hope County residents dating a plus size, pre-op trans man hc's

I didn't do everyone so if there's a particular character that you'd like to see that I didn't have here don't be afraid to ask!

Contains NSFW content, minors do not read!

A fun personal hc I have is that Sharky will just forget you're not cis until he sees you naked

He jus thinks you're cute, have a high pitched voice and got 'man tiddies' (look me in the eye and tell me he wouldn't call them that)

He will make an effort to remember if you're identity is important to you though

But with the forgetting he will ask you questions you won't be able to answer as you're not a doctor or a dick haver

You can make up something or Google it either way it'll be funny (but be careful because he will pass on whatever you say to Hurk and they'll take it as 100% truth)

We can also all agree he's a giant cuddle bug and will wrap himself around you all the time

Working? Cuddle time. Watching a show? Cuddle time. Playing a video game? Cuddle time. Existing in general? He's taking you to cuddle town

I also hc Sharky has a bit of a tummy himself and he's super proud about it and will rub off his big boy confidence onto you

He's sexy, you're sexy, you're both sexy and he's gonna make sure everyone knows it

Also loves cuddling with you shirtless if that's something you're comfy with

Also shockingly mindful of your binder if you have one, will gently remind you when you've had it on for a while

In general he just loves being goofy with you and making you laugh

He loves the sound of your voice even if you don't yet and he'll love it when it gets to where you like it too

That said if you start T while dating him he will be the most supportive boyfriend about it

He will hype you up about it all the time and call you a total badass whenever you have to get your shot and is absolutely there holding your hand the entire time

And after your appointments he takes you out to get snacks or straight home to cuddle and watch your comfort show

(Or have some comfort sex if that's your cup of tea, he's always down to clown)

Seriously if you're the type to get riled up after your shot because ✨hormones✨ he's more than happy to fuck you for as long as you want

Whether he's giving or taking he's absolutely vibing

(Okay but he'd want to name your strap on 110% and it'd be the stupidest, least sexy name ever, and you should let him)

When it comes to the bedroom this man is pretty much up for everything except for heavy degradation and the really rough stuff

He's not gonna have any fun if there's blood involved yanno

He's also very concious about your boundaries and what you're comfy with and he still manages to be a goof even in bed

So he will have you giggling while he's blowing your back out that's a promise

He's very weak for you so if you flirt with him in public he will just be a giggling, blushing mess of a man

He will follow you around like a lost puppy and is always trying to impress you with stuff

(Even if most of the time he's nearly setting himself on fire and needing you to put it out)

I also imagine while he's not super possessive or jealous he can get a little pouty if you give a lot of attention to other people while he's there

He just likes being the center of your attention and if you play with his hair or wrap your arms around him while talking to other people he'll be over the moon

Also please get matching pride gear with this man it will make him so giddy to have a matching bracelet or pin or something

Even better get matching tattoos with him and he will just die of happiness

I think he'd really like the matching tattoo thing because it just proves you're permanent

If you're willing to do that with him who knows maybe this thing could last forever (he really hopes it does)

He'd call you his spark or his flame because he's Sharky (but he'll also use babe a lot)

Call him your fire bug or something cute like that and he'll explode

Is a lot more mindful of your identity from the get go and makes sure he and everyone else is respectful of it

Will cut a bitch if they misgender you or deadname you under any circumstance (No exceptions, you're getting a new doctor if your current one fucks up, don't worry about what happened to the old one it's fine)

I imagine in Atlanta he was surrounded by a lot of queer people so he's got an understanding of the community and a lot of the broad terms

And being bi himself he's done his own research of course

He'll steer clear of using any feminine pet names for you unless there are any you're okay with

I can see him liking to use angel, darling and love as general petnames (as well as the basic baby, babe etc.)

Also beware of him stealing your clothes, even if your styles are completely different he likes people to know he's taken

(And specifically he likes to wear the shirt you wore the day before so it smells like you/your cologne)

He will try to get you to wear his clothes, his sweaters would most likely fit the best because he likes them to be a bit baggy

(And if it's still more form fitting on you he'll just drool and enjoy the view)

On that note he really loves all of your curves and rolls and loves holding your waist and your hips

And he really loves digging his nails into your hips and thighs, especially when you're having sex

He will cover every inch of you in hickies and bite marks and your thighs are gonna be bruised to hell

John would just love having sex with you ngl

He's adaptable (ahem. A switch) and he's ready to work with whatever you're into

Whether you want it hard or soft, some teasing or straight to the action, some foreplay, he's genuinely down for all of it

And he will sing you sweet, filthy words all the while, he loves his dirty talk

Will call you whatever you want in the bedroom (good boy, naughty boy, sir, daddy, whatever you're into)

The aftercare will be heavenly

The softest man, will clean you both up and cuddle you and kiss all the marks he left so tenderly and with so much care

Will tell you how perfect you were and how gorgeous you looked and how much he loves you

He is ready to draw a long bath for the both of you to just experience some gentle, non-sexual, intimacy in comfortable silence

Will not complain one bit if you take lead in the aftercare and is actually secretly really moved if you do (Having you take care of him in any way always makes his heart melt)

Also possessive sex is bound to happen if he sees you getting friendly or overly affectionate with other people

He get's jealous pretty easy and he will remind you you're his and he's yours

(He's also the type to just wrap his arms around your waist and be pouty and passive aggressive if you're giving someone else too much attention that he obviously deserves to be getting)

I could also see John wanting matching tattoos with you (He's so ready to just tattoo your initials on himself and if you let him tattoo his initials on you he'd be so happy)

But he'd be happy with something a little less on the nose too

Also if you have you're ears pierced he absolutely wants to do the thing where couples swap earrings, it's cute

John would also bring up paying for any surgeries you might want, if you want them, in the future and leave it up to you if you're cool with that

This man's love language is gift giving in general so just accept that he'll be spending a lot of money on you

She just thinks you're the cutest thing and loves getting you all flustered

Lord help you if you're in your voice breaking era because she will kiss you silly

She thinks it's adorable especially when you get embarrassed

She will absolutely reassure you about it if it actually bugs you though

(And she's more than happy to remind you that you're still a sexy hunk to her)

She would love cuddling up to you on cold days and sneaking her hands under your shirt (they're freezing and she's not sorry)

Will call you darlin', pumpkin, sweetheart and those sorts of pet names all the time

Loves to show you off as well, she'll waltz around with you and be like; "Look at my baby boy ain't he just the sweetest thing?"

If you're cool with a poly thing with Xander you will be Trophy Boy #2 and she'll be very happy if you both get along

She's very handsy and will grope your ass a lot and if you're walking by she's gonna smack your ass as well

Suffice to say if you're up for it she's definitely gonna want to spank you in the bedroom

Not to mention this woman's strap game would be legendary, be ready to not be able to walk for a while after she's done with you

She's happy to let you top if she's tired but she does prefer being in charge most of the time

She's also one of the most protective girlfriends ever, hands down

Unlike John who would wait until later to take care of someone she will make them eat shit right in front of you

And she'll make them grovel and apologise too

Doubtful anyone would fuck with you while you're with her though, Adelaide has Queen Energy and no one messes with her

She'd also love taking you for rides in tulip, if you're scared of heights she'll try not to go to high

She loves her tulip and she'd love sharing that with you

I imagine she also would love to buy you things, whether it's clothes or just things you like

She likes taking care of her man!! And she won't complain if you take care of her right back

If you cook for her or clean the house she will give you a very big thank you later that night

Basically, you become her cute house husband and she repays you with a whole lotta love and whole lotta sex

Tattoos are a running theme here but I feel like getting a tattoo in homage to her just makes sense at this point, maybe a more subtle one though

Also she's very passionate about supporting however you identify and when pride month roles around her marina is the most colourful place in Hope County

It probably stays a little more decorated all through the year anyway because she just loves the flags

Also imagine her with a rainbow bandanna. That's it.

She's gonna treat you like a King on your birthdays as well

The only time she goes full out on pampering you

Wakes you up with breakfast in bed and soft morning sex

Has a looong shower with you before taking you somewhere you really enjoy hanging out

Invites some of your friends for a small surprise party and makes sure you're having fun and has her hand on you the entire time

And then you get home to a mysteriously fully prepped dinner and after that it's either a night of cuddling or sex just how you like it

For a few days after you have to do a few errands for her but it's totally worth it

It takes him a second to wrap his head around your identity and he'll either ask you or someone else a few questions but after he finally understands it he's chill

Literally couldn't care what you have in your pants

He likes you for you, for how you talk and how you carry yourself and how you interact with him

He enjoys a little banter and if you can keep up with him he's happy

Loves when he can get you speechless though and seeing you get frustrated or flustered

He's pretty subtle with everything and it'll take a while to figure out he has a thing for you

But there's only so many times he can mutter huskily into your ear and have his hand a little bit too low on your back without you connecting the dots

He's not huge on PDA but when you're at home he wants you all over him

If you're sitting, you're sitting in his lap

If you're standing, you're next to each other with someone having a hand on the other in some way

If you're laying down he's either on top of you or under you

He does very much enjoy laying on top of you and having you pat his head and run your hands over his shoulders though, it's so relaxing for him

He's also a menace because he'll whisper the nastiest things in your ear when you're in public and be completely stone faced so no one else knows why you're getting so fidgety

Similar to John he does love digging his hands into you and covering you in hickies

He does enjoy being gentle with you in bed though, you're precious to him and he wants to show you that

If you prefer it a little more rough though he won't deny you, just be patient and understanding with him

If he ever thinks he's actually hurt you that's enough of that and he'll need a lot of reassurance that you're okay and he did nothing wrong

Beside that aftercare with him would be really soft, just a lot of gentle touches and lazy kisses while you cuddle and run your hands over his scars

I don't think Jacob has that many tattoos honestly but he'd absolutely get one to represent you when you get serious

He doesn't say outright that's what it is but it's pretty obvious

That counts for a lot of stuff with Jacob honestly, he'll do things for you without saying it's for you but you know it's for you

Like if you mention you need something it'll suddenly appear after Jacob's done some shopping

He's just a big softie for you

He's also very protective of you and if he even thinks someone is making you uncomfortable they're gone dude

He'll do it without you knowing preferably but if he has too he'll put them in their place with you there

He'll be a little heated afterwards too but if you cup his face in your hands he will melt instantly and just hold you for a little while

Also god when he finds out you have to get a shot in your ass every few months he's gonna be a little impressed

But mainly he'd tease you about it

You know exactly the type of jokes he'd make and whether you love them or hate them the grin he gives you never fails to set butterflies off in your stomach

Jerk knows that and takes full advantage of it too

He's happy to do the shots for you too if you want and he'll give you a kiss on the spot after and tell you what a good job you did

Just praising you 24/7 tbh like you know he would

Idc pup is the number one nickname he uses fight me

Mary May is into you the second you walk into her bar

Your outfit, your hair, your smile, everything, it really knocks her off her feet

When she brings you your drink her number is written on the napkin

Of course there's the awkward conversation about your situation but she is not deterred at all

And after a few dates and just hanging out at her bar you're dating and it's awesome

She is 100% the type to send good morning and good night texts but don't you dare tell anyone

She loves stealing your jackets and if you have bracelets she's gonna be stealing a few of those too

No matter how tall or short you are she wants to wrap her arm around your shoulder

She just loves doing that and it makes way for her to pull you closer and plant a kiss on you

She loves covering you in kisses no matter where you are, PDA is more or so second nature to her

She'll encourage you to sit on the counter of the bar so she can stand between your legs and just hold you

She loves your stomach and your thighs and will kiss them whenever she's using them as her personal pillows

She doesn't wear makeup often but will purposely put on lipstick to leave some lipstick kisses all over you

She'll pout if you wash them off but also just jump you to give you some more, you can't get them all

Also movie nights are a thing and end up being 60% watching the movie and 40% making out on the couch

She'll absolutely crumble if you slip your hand under her panties and finger her

Some times she'll just ditch the panties altogether

I'd say she's a switch as well but prefers receiving and she loves when you're on top and taking control in the bedroom

She loves when you eat her out, looking down and seeing you buried between her thighs getting all the right spots

She also enjoys riding you when you wear your strap and I doubt you'd complain about the view

She's happy to wear the strap and take care of you too if you want her too, She wants you to feel as good as you make her feel after all

I could see her being into some risky public play as well and she'll be putty in your hands if you indulge in that with her

Also I imagine her working hours being at a bar would mean she doesn't have time to cook a proper dinner so if you had one waiting for her that would be appreciated

She'd also love to be able to have lunch with you every day on her lunch break and talk about your mornings

She just loves spending time with you and she'd also try to dabble in a few of your hobbies with you if possible

Even if she can't she's super supportive of what you're into and hypes you up a lot

In turn you're always hyping up whenever she tries out stuff and up to trying out new things with her

You both try fishing once and after falling into the Henbane you call it quits on that idea

Also she is very guilty of asking you to open jars for her and do the more 'manly' chores even though she's very capable of doing them herself

She just loves the proud little smile you get when you're able to do them for her, she adores seeing you happy

She will own your ass in carnival games or video games/board games with no mercy though

She loves you but she's still competitive and she doesn't like losing

Faith is very queer and not cishet in any way so she's very happy when she meets you and get's to know you

(Understandably she doesn't really want to know anything about your shots and can't really bring herself to be in the room when you get them but she's ready to cuddle and praise you afterwards)

She's got more pride gear than you could ever dream of and she's happy to give you some pins and bracelets of hers actually

It was one of the first ways she started dropping hints she liked you

She also gives you a cool jean jacket with patches all over it and really faded lipstick marks

She grins so wide when you first put it on and she makes sure to tell you how hot and handsome you look in it

(She's going 10x more feral on the inside but she tries to keep it cool)

Please let her paint your nails and do shit with your hair, if you dye it she wants to dye it for you (She'll let you dye her hair if you do)

Also if you have any facial hair she'll want to dye that too lol

(If you have scruff rub it on her cheek she loves it, she'll squeal and swat at you but it makes her all giddy)

She loves if you play with her hair or plait it or anything like that, it's just a small thing but it makes her feel very loved

She doesn't call you many pet names because she loves your name but if you have any you really like being called she's happy to oblige

And she loves when you call her baby or my love, it makes her absolutely swoon

She's a sleepy girl so she'll love to nap with you all the time, she's not exactly busy so just lazing around with you all day is like a dream

She also really loves lazy, slow sex where there's a lot of groping and lazy kisses

If you're the big spoon you can just slip your thigh between her legs and kiss her while she grinds on you and moans into your mouth

Grinding is one of her favourite things so that will happen Often

If you're the small spoon while you're cuddling her hand is going down your pants and she's gonna be kissing any exposed skin she can reach

I don't think she'd be super into you using the strap on her but she'd be chill with other toys

And she'd be more than happy to use the strap on you, she loves watching the faces you make and the hearing the sounds that come out of you when you come

She will giggle and tease you gently but never in a mean way and she loves if you tease her back

Aftercare is just as lazy and she will fall asleep in your arms, it just means she gets to wake up and shower with you

She's a little possessive of you honestly and loves having you all to herself

She likes having your undivided attention and in turn drowning you in hers

If you go out she sits in your lap and presses kisses along your jaw and neck

If you're around company she doesn't really like she will flat out ignore them and just play with your hair and your hands and hum to herself

She does prefer being alone with you though and doing things with you

Would be over the moon if you set up a small picnic for the both of you and just spent the whole day dancing in a field and laying under a tree together

Oh and swimming in the Henbane together she would love that

She'd try to convince you to skinny dip but if you weren't comfortable with it she wouldn't push it

She does expect that movie moment kiss in the water under a waterfall however, that is non-negotiable

OH and also you both just spend hours info dumping about your interests to each other and will end up remembering small bits about the others interest

And she will show you anything she see's having to do with your interest because she loves when you talk about it and get excited

Her gifts are always the best because of this because they're always very specific to your interests

It took her a second to get your identity as well and for a while she doesn't 100% understand it but she's always respectful

She doesn't stand for anyone else disrespecting you either, she stood up for you and defended you even when you were just acquaintances

Which, despite other things, obviously helped you warm up to her pretty fast

She realises whether she gets it or not doesn't really matter because you're a good man with a good heart and decent sense of humour too

She also knows it's a very strong thing to do to figure yourself out and take the steps you have so she has massive respect for you

Has a lot of questions but it'll take her a while to ask them and doesn't expect you to have answers to all of them

She really enjoys spending time with you, sitting on roof's, watching the sunset somewhere

She loves talking to you and learning about you and she even doesn't mind opening up and telling you about herself

She really thinks her father would have liked you and when she tells you that you get a little emotional which makes her smile

There's a long stretch of dancing around the dating topic with her, it had been a while since she'd dated and she didn't think she was any good at it

But you make her soft and you make her heart swell whenever you laugh or say her name a certain way and she can't help but fall for you

When you start dating there's that awkward period of getting use to casual affection and her getting use to being able to kiss you whenever she wants

But once you both get into a rthym it's sweet and natural and everything she thought it would be

She loves grabbing you by the back of the neck and kissing you long and hard, the dopey smile you get on your face is the cutest thing ever

She gets very flustered when you wrap your arms around her and nuzzle your face into her neck

She tries to play it cool but you're so soft and so warm and she just melts under your touch

Sex takes time and some experimentation, she had some pretty 'standard' sex before you and you open a whole new world of possibilities

She's very impressed with your strap game and shouldn't be as surprised as she is when you know exactly where her clit is but she still let's out a small gasp when you press your thumb against it

She'd really enjoy missionary, just getting to see you and kiss you while you pound into her is what makes it so good for her

She'd be down to try wearing the strap but she'd be a bit clumsy with it and need reassurance she's doing good

Is very excited when she realises you can use other toys during sex and very happy to try them all at least once

She definitely gives a lot of praise during and after sex and appreciates it in return

(Is very strict about cleaning up as soon as possible though, She needs her room to be spick and span at all times)

Totally hc her as a secret romantic too so she'll be all yours forever if you bring her flowers or leave her cute little notes

Also if you ever say anything about taking her last name she will get so serious so fast, the idea alone makes her heart go wild so don't play with her about it

Petnames aren't really a thing on her end at all but she'll call you 'my boy' when talking to other people about you

She also won't really initiate PDA but won't stop you from cuddling up to her or kissing her in public

Loves when you get comfortable enough to be around her shirtless, she finds it a lot easier to see your body as a male body at that point and she just thinks you're gorgeous and let's you know that

(She's also very supportive of any plans for future surgeries and she will want to do as detailed a background check on whatever surgeon you choose when it comes down to it as she can)

(This means her asking them very confronting questions during your consultation and you'll have to reel her in a bit)

Okay but also please imagine walking through the kitchen in tight jeans and Grace lightly smacking your ass and groping it while saying, "damn boy!" because,, yeah,,,,

Doting and supportive boyfriend x1000 change my mind—You Can't.

When he met you he went to John's ranch and asked him to help him with the computer so he could do a bunch of research on your identity

He was overly aware of what he said and didn't want to do anything that could possibly offend you or upset you

He will also verbally tear anyone to shreds if they make any kind of comment about your identity or weight

If they're a member of the project they're going to John to do some confessions and repenting

He'll be probably too excited to help you with your shot and go with you to your appointments

He just wants to be active in that part of you and wants you to know he supports you

He'll be so soft with you after your appointments, kissing your temple, gently caressing you wherever he has his hands on you

He'll treat you how he does when you have a cold and he won't let you get up and get anything for yourself

If you want a drink or something to eat he's gonna get it, if you want a book or your laptop he's gonna bring them over to you

He just loves taking care of you any chance he gets honestly

He also loves spending time with you and getting to just watch you in your element

He'll even bite his tongue about technology poisoning your mind for a bit if you have an interest that is mainly accessible via technology (not forever though he does like suggesting hiking a lot)

He does love hearing you talk about your interests and he'll ask so many questions and be 100% engaged the entire time about it

Honestly he's 100% engaged even if you're just talking about toast

It's endearing if not just very funny

He will call you my angel, my love, my darling, my light and every other over the top pet name he can think of

You are all of those things to him so it's no over the top for him

(But also watch him let a, "Hey baby," slip when he's just woken up, hair all messy and voice husky from sleep)

And he will melt no matter what you call him but he won't lie hearing you just say his name sends electricity down his spine everytime

He actually gets the best sleep with you in his bed, it will be agonizing though because his hands and lips will be all over you in such an intimate way but with no sexual-intent what so ever

(Maybe a small bit of sexual-intent but he won't admit it to himself)

He also just loves getting to wake up before you and watch you for a while before waking you up with small, gentle kisses peppered on your face

Sleepy morning kisses, all of them, all over your face and then peppered across your shoulder before he has to drag himself away from you

Sex is bound to happen, he's going to hear you taking care of yourself one night and want it to be him pulling those sounds from you and he's gonna give in to the want eventually

It will be the most loving sex you have ever had, very slow and a lot of body worship and I mean a Lot

(He won't focus anywhere you're uncomfortable with but he does want to cover every inch of you in loving kisses and touches)

Even when he's inside you he's almost agonizingly slow and he never stops kissing you and murmuring about how you're a gift from God and how he adores you with his entire soul

All that rambling trails off in to chanting your name breathlessly as you both get closer and closer to coming

Aftercare is just as slow and sweet and he is also a bath man, there's something about getting to wash you after having such an intimate experience that gets him

Joseph isn't exactly possessive but he does want every one to know you both belong to one another

He might give you something to wear that represents him (or possibly you could get a tattoo,,, haha,,,)

I could see him getting you both rings tbh in his head you're going to be together forever so you're practically married yanno

He will also absolutely write you into the book of Joseph, just a whole section about you and how you came into his life and became his partner

(I have no idea if this means the peggies would also call you Father,, I feel like they would right??? Right???? Hate that for you bud sorry lol)

You met at a cook out and he complimented your shoes to start conversation after having watched you for ten minutes

You two were friends for a long time before you started dating and he was always interested to hear about your past and your journey to who you were now

He probably provides a lot of comfort if you have any religious trauma and he's very firm in reassuring you and supporting you about your identity

Even if you're not religious anymore he assures you someone with a heart and soul like yours absolutely has a place in heaven

I like to hc he doesn't like needles so he'll absolutely go with you to get your shots but he will squeeze his eyes shut when the needle is brought out

Which you get to tease him about on the way home

This man is also a cuddle bug, loves to have his arms around you and feel you pressed up against him in any way

He loves how soft you are and he loves peppering kisses over your skin

No one's surprised by his relationship with you even if he is a pastor he's never been 100% conventional

He's also so much happier with you and everyone can see that

He actually indulges more nights out since he met you, joining friends at the spread eagle and having a good time

He has his arm around you whenever you're out and he'll press kisses to your temple every twenty minutes or so

If you're more of a stay at home kind of guy he's happy to just cuddle up on the couch and talk or watch a movie or do your own things just enjoying each other's presence

He hangs up a pride flag in his church because he wants to make sure his community and the people involved in his church are good, supportive people

He tries to avoid fights and unneeded hostility/violence but he won't stand for people being purposefully ignorant and bigoted

He'll try to talk to people first but if they're being offensive towards you and not listening to him he'll have to take them outside

If you say anything about it he'll defend himself with, "Preferably violence is never the answer but sometimes you have to speak a man's language to get him to really understand your point,"

And his point is they're an idiot with a shit, outdated opinion

Now to get self indulgent; sex with this man comes in different flavours

You've got sweet, slow, loving sex

You've got, rough, fast, really just needing to get off kinda sex

And you've got downright evil, full of pleasure, filthy as fuck sex

Depending on the day you've both had it's always a toss up on what you get

You really can tell what it's gonna be when he walks in through the door, how he kisses you says it all

If it's a soft kiss, it's soft sex. It's it's a needy kiss it's needy sex and I'd he pins you to the wall and starts unbuckling your pants it's filth time

Of course he also let's you decide if you're in the mood for it and he'll change it up depending on what you're feeling

His aftercare is pretty sweet, a lot of praise and kisses and he'll bring you water and a snack if you need them

He also won't be opposed to you bringing him water and cradling him to your chest

He really loves if you sit in on his sermons but he understands if they're not your thing

He really enjoys spending his days off with you and I actually see him enjoying fishing

Even if you find it boring getting to sit in a boat with him and watch him get so concentrated would be cute

He also really enjoys reading so he's happy to just sit wherever you are while you're doing your thing and reading

Also he's a great cook and will make you the best meals you have ever tasted

Would love if you cooked or baked with him

Just imagine him in an apron holding out something for you to taste test like COME ON. heaven

Eli bless his soul is even more clueless than Jacob

But he's a sweetheart about it and after spending time with you it really doesn't take long for him to see you as a man

Because you are one and anyone who says otherwise is gonna meet a world of pain

Eli gets very protective of you very quickly and with that the other members also get protective of you

You're family and no one disrespects the whitetails family

Eli also takes a while to admit his feelings for you, even though he's always been in to men it's never been something he's been super open about

But he knew he had to admit it after you spent the night and fell asleep cuddled up to him and he felt his heart go off like a hummingbird in his chest

It was a messy confession as he wanted to make it clear he meant it in an entirely gay way (you had to tell him to shut up after the fifth time of him reaffirming that)

Dating Eli feels like a summer fling in the beginning, he acts like a flustered teenage boy with his first boyfriend

He's very hesitant with his touches and kisses at first, not wanting to overstep any boundaries or comfort zones but after a while he loosens up

Which is a delightful change as he will come up behind you, wrap his arms around your waist and pepper your neck and shoulder in kisses

He will lift you off the ground a small bit if you're cool with that, he's a strong boy

He loves just holding you while leaning against one of the desks or the walls, people get use to talking to him while you're cuddled up against him

He'll call you baby and cub and anything other pet name you like with an easy smile

The moment you call him a pet name though his face is on fire and he'll chuckle bashfully and look at the ground

Shy mountain man is shy

And you should take advantage of that 100%

Especially in the bedroom because boy oh boy is that fun

He thinks you are so freaking hot and he just looks at you in awe the first time you let him take your clothes off

He kisses your stomach first and avoids anywhere you don't want him to touch as he trails kisses up your chest to your neck before kissing you long and slow

He will be obsessed with your thighs and leaving as many hickies there as possible

He will be more flustered than you when he looks up at you from between your thighs and if you run your hand through his hair and tell him he's doing good he'll moan and bury himself against you

Legally you have to plow this man into the mattress and tell him how pretty he looks and how he's taking you so well (he does it for you it's only fair)

He's pretty content to be giving or taking in the bedroom and it's always light hearted and loving

Same with the aftercare, he loves to play with your hair and trace your face gently and actually really appreciates talking for a bit before you both clean up

He worries about you a lot and if you go out he's going with you, he can't help but want to keep you safe

In that vein he's always touched when you express the same sentiment toward him

You're a power couple for sure and have each others backs no matter what

And if anyone underestimates your ability to defend yourself and your man that's on them because if you couldn't fight before Eli definitely gives you some lessons and gets your fighting skills up

If you never used a gun before meeting him gun lessons are going to be fun

He will scold you if you get distracted, it's not your fault with him pressed against your back though (If you grind your ass against his crotch he's gonna lightly smack your hip and tell you to focus)

(But he's very ready to ditch gun lessons after that)

He will be so happy if you let him shave your beard/stubble for you

He can't explain it, it just feels really intimate and there's a lot of trust there he values a lot

And if he ever shaves the beard he'd absolutely let you help
