He had been watching them all night. Seeing them interact with the others, laughing and having a good time. Not once did they look in Atticus' direction. Acted like he didn't exist, like they hadn't spent the night together only a few days ago. It was rather frustrating to the man, and if he had the guts to, he would have already marched up to them to call them out, but he didn't and kept his mouth shut.

Atticus was getting ready to leave when he felt a body press up against him from behind. He knew who it was without having to turn around. Instead of being excited though, he was a bit disappointed they had waited this long to say hello. "Finally realize I was here, did you?" // @mysteryoflovc

Oh. Not the reaction he had been expecting, but was grateful for. Most people wouldn't exactly be thrilled at the idea of a stranger rooting through their kitchen, digging around, but she seemed to be okay with it. At least it had just been the fridge, and not something more private. "Sometimes I uh, I don't think before I do. Ma always yelled at me for it as a kid and well, I guess she still kind of does to this day." Atticus lets out an awkward chuckle. He's not really being smooth. Last night's confidence definitely hadn't traveled over to this morning. He blames the lack of alcohol. "No, I'm not really hungry. Coffee will do just fine. Figured you might want to eat, though." // @memxntovivere

"Uh, no, that's perfect." She offered a smile, gladly accepting the mug. Imran didn't know if she should've found it weird that he had gone through her kitchen, but she kind of thought it was cute that he was making such an effort. "I'm starving," she admitted, a small blush appearing as she remembered last night. "Although...you're not eating?"

What are the odds that the two of them would end up back together again? Except this time it's not in the bedroom, but instead at a restaurant at a now very awkward brunch. Atticus didn't realize that they had shared a mutual friend and had been totally caught off guard when they had walked through the doors.

"Just my luck." He mumbles under his breath, realizing that the only seat left was the one besides him. The other sits down and he does his best not to make eye contact. Busies himself with his coffee, acting like it was the best damn thing in the world (and most certainly did not taste like burnt bean water.) // @hellfollowed (based x)

[missdcalls]

for a moment, atticus debates about going back inside. it's clear that the woman is agitated and given he didn't have a key to her place nor knew how to pick a lock, he was no use to her. it's a frustrating situation to be in. more often than not he had forgotten his apartment key during his premed years, and his roommates never seemed to be around when he needed them. many nights were spent sleeping on the porch.

"figured they wouldn't be, but one could be hopeful." crosses his arms over his chest, leaning against his door way. looks at the other, trying to think of what to say or do. really, there wasn't much he could. "can't say i know how to pick a lock but...if you don't feel like sitting out in the hall anymore, you are more than welcome to hide it out in my apartment." it didn't hurt to offer, did it? even if she said no, atticus would feel better knowing that he had at least tried. // @luvcrs

"well, i'm sitting outside of my own apartment because i forgot my keys this morning like an idiot. i was also late for work. and my roommate sleeps like a damn rock, clearly." taylor rambles, before inwardly cursing at herself. yeah, of course, any interaction she'd ever had with attitcus had left her a stuttering, jumbled mess. now was certainly no different. she didn't see him too often but like a weirdo, found herself enamored with him. not like she would act on it or anything. "sorry... obviously it's been a bad day. security is no help, either. i did try them. sometimes i swear they don't even exist." she laughs nervously. "i don't suppose you know how to pick a lock, do you?"

[missdcalls]

He doesn't push the other away, like his mind is screaming for him to do. Instead, he lets him rest and revels in the fact that he's close to him, and no longer hanging around the married couple. The amount of jealousy that overcomes him when he sees Levi with clients...

"Really? I find that a bit hard to believe. I would think it would be the other way around." When he mentions that there hadn't been much interest in Atticus that night, brows are raised. "How do you know that? You haven't looked in my direction since I've gotten here. You've been so enthralled with the Mr. and Mrs. over there." He points out. Wonders if this...whatever it was, could ever work between the two of them.

"Then come home with me." // @mysteryoflovc

Levi watches the other closely because they've had this conversation before. Of course they have. Levi's always turned Atticus down on principal. The blonde only takes money from suckers. He would never take it from a friend. Never take it from someone who Levi fantasizes about. Never from someone he wishes could have everything with. They've never had that conversation because Levi would never allow it but there's always been something between them. Something that could be more if only the blonde allowed it. Levi knows that too.

Levi props his head up on Atticus's shoulder, head turned towards his face, he's so close he could kiss his cheek if he wanted. Levi wants to kiss his neck instead. "Think I can get away with going home early. They want to see me happy." Levi hums softly. It's not like he actually cares about what the Howards think of him. "Not like you've had a lot of biters anyway." He points out. It's not like he'd been watching Atticus all night to actually know if anyone had been hitting on him but Levi would rather imagine him broody and alone at the bar instead. Waiting for Levi. He could pretend, could imagine that was the end goal here. In another life they could be together, happy, Levi wonders if he tries hard enough he could feel that sensation now from this life time. "I want to go home with you." It's confident in a way Levi always is despite how he feels inside.

[missdcalls]

He lifts his chin as the other places his lips along his jaw. Atticus loves the attention he receives from Levi. It gave him a high like no other. When they were together, he felt on top of the world. He knew he would only be left disappointed in the morning, but the man couldn't bring himself to care. Not with the other standing right there, practically putty in his hands.

"I do need you, just like I know you need me. Why do you think I showed up? I knew I could get you to come home with me. Leave whoever you were trying to entertain so you could spend the night with me." There's a smug look on his face. He did feel a bit bad, imposing on Levi's work, but if he really needed it - Atticus would pay him.

Atticus is aware of the crowd that can see the two of them. He hopes that old couple, whatever the fuck their names were, saw the two of them. They could try as hard as they wanted to, but they could never compare to Atticus and he knows it. Knows the effect he has on the other.

Levi pulls away from the kiss and he can't help but whine. Wants to keep making out, really not in the mood to wait until they got back to his place. "I never said I was going to die without you. Don't put words into my mouth. I want something else in it." // @mysteryoflovc

Levi just nods along as Atticus speaks. He's right. No one could ever compare. He likes when Atticus is cocky, wants to roll right on his back whenever confidence seems to seep from his pores. The blonde hums softly before he presses a gentle kiss to Atticus' jaw. Levi wants it to devolve into biting. Clawing at each other. A wide grin spreads across his lips, "I am looking at you."

"You need me." He exhales softly. Like he'd been holding it in. Like he was waiting for Atticus to see him. Always waiting for the other even when he's beneath someone else. He could have it all with Atticus but Levi knows he can never have that. He knows he can't allow himself to even wish for it. It stays alone in the fantasy he indulges in before he goes to bed. When he's all alone and Atticus is far away. No one compares to you. Levi's breathless. He slips his hand onto the other's jaw and turns his head towards him. Levi presses a kiss to his mouth. He doesn't care who sees. "Let's go, since you're going to die without me."

[missdcalls]

He wants him, in more ways than he can have him. The topic has come up before and even if it hadn't, Atticus had hinted at it plenty. But the other was always quick to turn him down. A relationship would never work.

"Are you kidding me? Look at me! The old hag and her husband's shriveled up dick could never compare to my handsome looks and good dick." He's really not an arrogant person, but feels the need to defend himself when the other accuses him of jealousy. He was jealous, of course, but Levi didn't need to know that.

"Of course I want you. Why do you think I'm here? No one compares to you. I...I need you tonight, Levi. You've been on my mind since the last time we spent the night together. Its been far too long, in my opinion." // @mysteryoflovc

Levi can never help himself around the other. He wants this. Wonders if the Levi and Atticus in another life are happy together. Not this. Not whatever they are right now. He doesn't try to cover the way he presses his nose to the collar of the other's shirt, smells his cologne, would promptly like to drown in it.

"Jealous that I was being wooed by the seniors?" Levi raises a brow as he grins. It's that stupid little grin he wears whenever he teases the other man. A familiar one. "The Howards." The blonde explains softly as he pulls back to take in the sight of Atticus head on. He perks up as the other concedes to Levi's idea. "Yeah? Want me tonight?" He asks softly. Levi always wants to know, always wonders what Atticus thinks of him. Covers it up with that coy little smirk instead.

[missdcalls]

it had been a long day. between residency and his current...situation, atticus was exhausted. he had just changed from scrubs to sweatpants when he heard a commotion outside of his door. normally, he'd let it go. there was always something going on in that hall. a couple fighting, a one night stand trying to discreetly sneak away. it wasn't uncommon. but curiosity killed the cat, or in this case, the med student, as he gets up to check it out.

opening his door, he is greeted by who he assumed was his neighbor. with his hours, he didn't really get to know who all lived in his building. it wasn't great, but that's just how it was. a lonely life to live, until he was finished with school. "you okay?" he questions, concerned for the other. it seems as if she was locked out of her own place. "have you tried contacting security? they might have a spare somewhere in their office." // @luvcrs

open to: anyone ! plot: here <3

great, taylor thought to herself as she made one last futile attempt at jiggling the doorknob, hoping by some miracle her roommate would wake up and hear it. but nope, not happening. in her haste to get out the door this morning, she had also forgotten her keys. so now she was resigning herself to a night of sleeping in a cold, dark hallway. her intrusive thoughts told her she was probably going to end up kidnapped or something. "fuck!" she shouted, sliding down the wall in defeat. no sooner, the door across the hall opened and her eyes widened. "uh... sorry."

[missdcalls]

Shit. He didn't think she'd wake up before breakfast was finished. Atticus was still empty handed, nothing but a mug of coffee to give her to get her to forgive him, basically a stranger, from rummaging through her kitchen without permission. "Assumed that you liked cream in your coffee, since there was creamer in your fridge." For all he knew, it had been sitting there for a while, someone else's Imran had yet to throw away. This idea was beginning to seem less and less of a good one. "And definitely took it upon myself to make us - well, really, you - breakfast. Figured you'd be hungry after last night...but I probably should have asked permission, so for that...sorry?" // @memxntovivere

closed starter for @falscgcds || imran x atticus

Had she dreamt last night? Something about it felt too real, but too good to be true. Imran sat up, rubbing the sleep from her eyes as she looked at the empty spot next to her. From the way her sheets were a mess, something definitely had happened. But she couldn't help feeling a little dejected as she climbed out of bed, moving around trying to find her discarded clothes. He seemed to have already left. It wasn't until she stepped out in to the living room that she paused—he was still here, cooking breakfast? "Oh," it was almost inaudible as she shuffled closer to the kitchen. "...hi..."

[missdcalls]

Could he really be upset at the other for working? The man needed to pay his bills somehow, although Atticus would be more than happy to help him out. Had offered before, too, but it seemed as if the other never wanted to take it. It was frustrating really. Levi didn't need to do all of that when Atticus could just take care of him.

He feels his hands on his shoulder. They're accompanied by a squeeze, and it takes everything in him not to melt in his arms right then and there. But he didn't want to seem desperate, now did he? "I should leave it to you, then. I wouldn't want to interrupt." // @mysteryoflovc

Levi loves to work a room. He's social enough when he has to be that it's easy to draw the attention of others. Levi's always turned heads but not always for good reasons. Usually fucked someone wife or husband. Never cared about who when he was getting paid. Levi knew karma would get him if not in this life then the next. He was certain this life was karma for the last. Rinse and repeat. So he's entertaining a table -there's some older man at his side hanging off every word. His wife on Levi's other side doing the same. It's easy for him. The brush of a hand, a well placed compliment, pretending ot be helpless and dumb to get what he wants. He began to get bored and that was never a good sign. Levi's gaze flicked across the room and he spotted familiar broad shoulders. Oh, this could be fun. Perhaps tonight wasn't a total fucking bust. He doesn't even excuse himself just gets up and slips across the room. It looks like Atticus is going to leave. Levi will not let him leave him behind. "I was working." Levi frowns before he squeezes the other mans shoulders. He always thinks he just needs to touch Atticus a little bit more and he'll be forgiven.
