"So how's your boyfriend ?"

"He’s not my boyfriend"

Lucas sighs, tired of having the same conversation with Yann after every thunderstorm. The cheeky bastard knows he irrationally fears the thunder. He also happens to know the little tradition Eliott and he had going on since they were kids. The both of them would crawl under the covers together, cuddling into the other's side until space was nothing more than a metaphor. Yann also happens to know the not so little crush Lucas has developed for his childhood friend over the year.

"Right. So how's your not boyfriend with whom you spent last night cuddling under the covers ?" He deadpans, looking straight at him incredulously. Lucas gulps, averting his eyes.

"He's good I guess." Lucas shrugs." We spent the night talking, falling asleep at dawn. I woke up with his arm around my waist and we went our separate ways as usual." He plays with his fingers, a nervous habit he hasn't grown out of, much to Eliott's disarray he must say, at least he doesn’t bite his nails anymore, unlike a certain someone. Thinking about the other boy makes him smile. 

He can't tell Yann what happened, if he lets it slide that they almost kissed in the dark of the night, or that Lucas woke up to the feeling of soft kisses on his neck and hushed whispers he wasn't supposed to hear, the teasing would be infernal. Instead he bites his bottom lip, preventing his grin to expand into a full-on smile.

"Tell me again why you aren't together yet? The both of you already act like boyfriends whenever you are in the same room, always being touchy and getting jealous when someone flirts with the other. I'm telling you man you should ask him out. For the greater good It’s getting painful to watch you dance around each other."

    Lucas pinches his nose,sighing loudly in frustration.

" Goddammit Yann can we not do this all over again please? We had the same conversation, what, not even a week ago. Even if I want to be his boyfriend he doesn't feel the same way trust me . So in the meantime when one of us is scared we just happen to platonically cuddle. End of the story"

"Right." Yann says, lips pressed together in a pout. " Platonic cuddles between two bros. Just two dudes who seek comfort in the other. No feelings involved.Just bros being bros." 

Yann turns around,humming to himself while folding his laundry. When Lucas recognises the childish song he widens his eyes in disbelief. Fuck his best friend for being so immature.

"Lucas and Eliott sitting in a tree…."

He stands up, determination lighting up his eyes .

"Oh no you don’t get to finish this song "

Yann turns around,a folded towel still in his hand, mirth written all over his face. He takes a step back, knowing what will inevitably follow.

"... Kissiiiiing"

He bolts through the door then, running around their flat, an angry looking Lucas behind him. He lets out an ooof when his tiny best friend tackles him to the ground in their living room, sitting on his waist, tickling him until he can’t breathe anymore, wiggling desperately to escape. A loud cackle still echoes long after their fight is over.

    Their little talk gets him thinking though. It’s true the past year Eliott and him have gotten closer, so close in fact that when they go out, complete strangers tell them they make a cute couple. Everytime Lucas’s heart soars at the comment, his cheeks heat up and Eliott kindly tell them they are just friends while Lucas buries his head in his shoulders, sending mixed signals to the people who always leave with a puzzled face. At parties, they always find their way back to each other, no matter if they are apart, catching the other’s eyes, staring a little bit too long to be considered purely platonic, their bodies gravitating towards the other, coming closer as time goes by. When Eliott comes to the flat he shares with Yann, during their movie nights Yann has made it his duty to leave them the couch so they can snuggle, always taking the armchair. These nights often end with a hand caressing the other’s thigh, or Eliott falling asleep, his head on his lap, Lucas petting his hair distractedly, eyes definitely glued to the tv and not staring at his beautiful face. Definitely not. 

    Lucas isn't dumb, he's aware of his blossoming feelings for his best friend. He's just too busy wondering if Eliott feels the same way to act on it. Because Eliott has always been affectionate, needing to touch and be touched to feel anchored in the moment. Maybe all of this is normal, just wishful thinking from his part. The kisses meant nothing, the hushed words were for someone else, Eliott often talks in his sleep after all. Nothing weird going on.

Or 5 times Lucas and Eliott cuddle durimg thunderstorms + 1 not so platonic cuddling session

Thanks for the ask ! Love you too💖
