[yridenergyridenergy]

hi wanted to ask about festival have dir en grey ever went festival with famous bands?

and is this chance for them to be popular?

Good questions!

I don't know if this list is exhaustive, but it's what I compiled based on a couple of sources:

2005 Rock am Ring/Rock im Park (Germany)

2005 Octopus Rock Festival (Belgium)

2006 South by Southwest (USA)

2006 Rock am Ring/Rock im Park (Germany)

2006 Loud Park Festival (Japan)

2007 Wacken Open Air/Ankkarock (Germany)

2007 M'era Luna Festival (Germany)

2007 Metal Hammer Festival (Poland)

2009 Rock am Ring/Rock im Park (Germany)

2009 Download Festival (UK)

2009 Nova Rock (Austria)

2009 MetalTown (Sweden)

2009 Maquinaria Festival (Brazil)

2010 Pentaport Rock Festival (South Korea)

2010 Sonisphere Festival (UK)

2010 Loud Park Festival (Japan)

2011 Wacken Open Air (Germany)

2012 Loud Park Festival (Japan)

2012/2013 Countdown Japan

2013 Ozzfest Japan

2014 Download Festival (UK)

2014 Nova Rock (Austria)

2014 Soundwave/Sidewaves (Australia)

2014 Porno Ultra Express (Japan)

2014/2015 Countdown Japan

2015 Rock im Revier/Rockavaria (Germany)

2015 Lunatic Fest (Japan)

2015 Rock Bandoh Festival (Taiwan)

2015 Japan Live (Mexico)

2016 Porno Ultra Express (Japan)

2017 The Great Rock'n'Roll Sekigahara 2017 (Japan)

2018 Lunatic Fest (Japan)

2019 Free-Will SLUM (Japan)

2022/2023 50th New Year Rock Festival (Japan)

2025 Sick New World (USA)

I guess this list kind of answers your other question... It certainly helps to give them exposure for a public who might be at the festival for other bands and who had never heard of Dir en grey before, but I don't think that Dir en grey is even a band that wants to become popular. Toshiya mentioned recently that they are quite comfortable staying away from the mainstream, that it doesn't fit them.

Still, it's very nice to know that DIr en grey is getting enough recognition around the world to receive invitations to festivals!

Last Paragraph in English: "For the opening on Friday next year we have invited 2 very special anniversary guest that you definitely don't want to miss. #RAR2025"

Wake up boys, new conspiracy just dropped! (From me. I'm dropping it) Looking up fesitvals in Europe next year and hit on this...Rock am Ring is the biggest rock festival in Germany, one of the largest in the world. A huge rock festival teasing a special anniversary guest? A festival that MCR played in 2007? In a year when we already know they're touring?

So it′s time to hit the red line and up-thrust the volume out there

Keep your boots tight, keep your clown wig close...

Muse full gigs

Some full shows that are available, for anyone who wants to partially relive the Muse live experience.

I figured no one's made lists in a while.

La Cigale, Paris By-Request gig 2018

rarities + I guarantee I'm gonna fuck up Space Dementia + water spitting + Matt and Dom playing Grammy hosts in the way they announced the winners of the by-request polls

Some cool and noteworthy gigs:

Live Lounge 2012

The Mayan 2015 (performance wise this gig was stunning)

Royal Albert Hall 2008 (Teenage Cancer Trust charity gig - Megalomania on the pipe organ!)

Reading Festival 2011 (10 years of Origin of Symmetry - played the album start to finish)

AOL Sessions 2006

Reading 2006 (Muse's first time headlining if I remember right. Plus, Matt's moves!)

Glastonbury 2004 (first Glasto headline and a must-watch! Of the iconic mad-scientist, white lab coat era. Muse had called it the best gig of their life so far, at the time) (*Ruled By Secrecy was played live but wasn't included in the concert footage DVD and isn't in this video upload either)

Montreaux Jazz 2002 (height of piano maniac-ery days. Would also recommend Pinkpop 2002 but they don't. have. the footage anymore :( Space Dementia at Pinkpop 2002 was phenomenal. 2004 is also good, but I never found 2002 again. Speaking of which,)

Pinkpop 2004 (most songs are in, a few performances missing unfortunately)

MCM Café 1999 (marvel at what a good live act this young band aged 21 already was—with about 4 years of gigging experience under their belts. Insane how good they are.)

Wembley 2007 (H.A.A.R.P. The first band to sell out the newly rebuilt Wembley Stadium. 90,000 people. You need to understand, seeing Chris lift up and point his bass at the crowd at the end of the slightly modified Jimmy Jam riff before Time Is Running Out was a religious experience that changed me and we're lucky enough to live in an age where you and I can witness it over and over and over again and I'd suggest that you do)

Rock Am Ring 2018, uploaded to the Internet Archive by the Muse Historical Society!

Austin City Limits 2013 Philipshalle 1999 Philipshalle 2001 (all suggested in notes, check out the crystal clear gifs from @hotbellamy! :O )

A few additions I remembered after publishing: Eurockeennes 2000 (opened with a then-unreleased New Born. Matt playing a full gig in red sunglasses. Treat to watch. Link's stretched up to fit modern screens but if you want a bit of clarity and don't mind the late 90s ratio stretch, here's a different link) 2002 (quality's a bit shit but that is literally what telly used to look like)

Shepherd's Bush Empire 2006 (Early gigs are always interesting because over time Muse develop different ways of playing songs that are fresh off new albums. The way they work through Take A Bow live is a bit different here, Dom's the one controlling the opening verse synths! During the Abso tour, Matt would play that bit on the piano as an intro to Space Dementia and if I'm remembering right, he does now on the pianos (correct me—this was on the ST tour as well). Also, Starlight in Bm at this gig)

Big Day Out (Australia) 2004 | 2007. Muse's first tour Down Under, 2004. If you're impressed by Muse's riffage here, know that you aren't alone, Metallica's Kirk Hammett was as impressed as you are. Also I've linked 2007, presented by the V channel, featuring Matt asking a male interviewer, 'Do you feel sexy now?' and famously proclaiming that they'll look sexier in their 40s, which has been true.

Rock Werchter 2023 (Muse play Rock Werchter in Belgium almost every year, except for the pandemic and 2012 I think, but this year's was a bit special. Best performance of Madness I've seen in a while, I love what he does in the outro! MOTP returns to the set. Muse had tech troubles at the end that caused them to restart Knights of Cydonia twice, to no avail. They finally cut it back for a guitar-bass-drum-vocals-only performance of Showbiz, and Matt's voice sounds exceptional on it— the best in recent years)

Bizarre Fest 2000 (BLESS SOMEONE HAS RESTORED THIS FROM VHS TAPE IN HD, this is so much better than back in the day!! If the falsetto at 1:13 doesn't do it for you, you're into the wrong band, nothing else will help. What an electric performance this was!)

Buenos Aires 2019 (livestreamed Simulation Theory-era gig in Argentina, because the set was changed at the last minute because of adverse weather, Muse gave the audience a choice of song between Bliss and Showbiz. The crowd chose Showbiz, which the band played for... the first time since 2006 I think??)

Gigs from WOTP 2022/23 festivals tour last summer:

Nova Rock Rock In Rio Ejekt Fest Isle of Wight ALTer EGO Jan 2023 (as Muse had talked about in that iHeart Radio IG Live) Hurricane Festival 2023 (a festival at which Matt once complained that Muse's set was cut short by... hurricanes. But the audio mixing at this gig was really good!)

These are in no particular order, and obviously not complete, I just realised no one had put together a gig archive in a while so I thought I'd give it a stab!

Will edit and add others whenever, there are obviously glaring omissions still!

Joining The Family Business: Wrestlers Who Followed Their Families Into The Squared Circle Part 2

If you have read the first article in this series , you’ll know that I am discussing the wrestlers who have decided to follow in their families’ footsteps and joined the wrestling business. Due to this , we’ve seen family names such as the Von Erichs, Flairs, Rhodes, the Bloodline , and others . And if you haven’t read part one , please do so!

Natalya Neidhart/Nattie ( born Natalie Katherine Neidhart) - is a Third Generation Wrestler. She was born on May 27, 1982 . She is a Third Generation Superstar. Nattie is the granddaughter of legendary Wrestler and Promoter , Stu Hart , daughter to WWE Hall of Famer, Jim ‘ The Anvil ’ Neidhart and niece to Bret ‘ The Hitman ’ Hart, Owen Hart, and ‘ The British Bulldog ’ Davey Boy Smith . She was signed to the WWE in 2007. Nattie is a one time WWE Divas Champion , and a one time Smackdown Women’s Champion. She was also a reoccurring cast member of the popular reality show , ‘ Total Divas ’. Her cousin is Davey Boy Smith Jr., the son of The British Bulldog.

Teal Piper ( born Ariel Teal Toombs )- is a Second Generation wrestler. She was born on June 7,1985. Teal is the daughter of WWE Hall of Famer , Rowdy Roddy Piper. She made her wrestling debut in 2019 with AEW when she competed in a Casino Battle Royal during the All Out Pay-Per-View . She also was signed to WOW Superheroes ( Women of Wrestling) . Therefore during her time with WOW, she would follow into her father’s footsteps with a talk show of her own , ‘ Teal Talks ’. In 2023 , she made another appearance in AEW in a tag team match against Anna Jay and Tay Melo. She would also make her Ring Of Honor debut the same year against Diamanté. She also won the Atomic Legacy Wrestling Women’s Championship which is her first championship. 

Marshall and Ross Von Erich ( born David Michael Ross Adkisson and Kevin Marshall Adkisson) - are Third Generation Wrestlers. Ross was born on June 1, 1988 and Marshall was born on November 10, 1992. Marshall and Ross are the grandsons of wrestler and promoter , Fritz Von Erich. They are the nephews of David, Mike , Kerry , and Chris Von Erich. They are the sons of Kevin Von Erich. The Von Erichs would join the family business when they made their debut in 2012. They are one time MLW Tag Team Champions. They are the current Ring Of Honor World 6 Man Tag Team Champions alongside Dustin Rhodes. They are also the hosts of The Von Erichs Podcast.

Brock Anderson ( born Brock Alexander Lunde ) - is a Second Generation Wrestler. He was born on February 28,1997. Brock is the son of WWE Hall of Famer and 4 Horsemen member , Arn Anderson. He began training to wrestle in 2021 before being spotted at AEW shows and events. He signed to AEW in 2021 after Arn revealed the news on his podcast, ‘ The Arn Show ’. Brock trained at Nightmare Factory. Cody Rhodes would announce Brock as the newest member of the Nightmare Family and would make his debut alongside Rhodes in a tag team match against QT Marshall and Aaron Solow. In 2022, Anderson would team with Brian Pillman Jr ( NXT Star , Lexis King ) , would defeat The Rock N Roll Express during the Ric Flair’s Last Match Pay Per View. Brock Anderson would sign with MLW in 2024.

My Final Thoughts:

As I said in part one , these wrestlers are keeping their family legacies alive and well. I’ll be getting to see Brock and Arn at WRESTLECADE this year. I also would love to see Teal on TV more because she’s a great wrestler . I also think that Nattie needs a huge push in WWE because she works so hard and can put over young talent.

Love You All,

-Kay

Ghost Of You (M.B.)-Chapter 8

I Do

CONTAINS NSFW CONTENT (Oral sex, f receiving, p in v sex)

2007-Chicago, Illinois

"There she is." Richie smiled as Angie walked into the room. He hugged her and kissed her cheek. "You look beautiful."

"Thank you." She smoothed out her white silk dress that had once been worn by her mother.

"You ready?"

"Yeah. I'm ready."

Natalie walked in first with the rest of the bridesmaids and groomsmen. Angie linked her arm with Richie's and the two began to walk into the nave.

Her heart was beating a mile a minute, but her eyes only focused on Michael. Richie kissed her cheek again once they got to the alter. He went to stand by Michael and the other groomsmen. Angie handed off her flowers to Natalie before she grabbed the hands of her soon to be husband.

The priest cleared his throat and looked to the crowd. "We are gathered here today in the house of the Lord as witnesses to join Michael and Angelina in holy matrimony."

He gave some long speech about marriage and loving your partner, but neither of them heard it. They were too lost in each other's eyes.

"The couple will now read their written vows. Michael will go first, reading his vows to Angelina."

"Angie, you and I both know that I'm not a poet. And even though I had a little help writing this, I mean every word." 

She laughed at his comment. He took a deep breath and grabbed a piece of paper from his pocket. She could tell he was anxious, so she gave the hand she was still holding a squeeze.

"Angie, I vow to cherish you, to honor you, and to walk beside you, even when the path is uncertain." He looked up from the paper to catch her loving gaze. 

"I promise to be your rock, even when I feel like sand, and to love you more with each passing day, even when I feel unworthy of such a gift. I vow to never leave your side, and to love you till death do us part." His voice began to crack as a tear streamed down his cheek. 

"Today, I give you my heart, flawed as it may be, and my soul, which you have already healed. I am forever grateful to call you my wife, and I vow to spend every day proving that your love for me is not misplaced. My Angie, I love you."

She let go of his hand for a moment and wiped her eyes. He lifted her hand to softly kiss it.

"Now, Angelina will read her written vows to Michael."

She grabbed her paper and attempted to pause her tears.

"Michael, you are my best friend, my confidant, and my greatest strength. With you, I have found a partner in every sense of the word."

She could hear Natalie's tears behind her. Which didn't help her to keep it together.

"I promise to love you through the good times and the bad, to stand by your side in sickness and in health, and to support your dreams and ambitions as if they were my own."

Even Richie was getting emotional. Watching all the people she loved cry was only creating a domino effect that started her tears again.

"Together, we will face the challenges that life may bring, and we will celebrate the joys that it offers. I love you more today than I did yesterday, and I will love you more tomorrow than I do today. Forever and always, I am yours."

"Now we will have the exchanging of the rings."

Richie handed the couple each other's rings.

"Do you Michael, take Angelina to be your lawfully wedded wife? Will you honor and cherish her, love, trust, and commit to her, through joy and pain, sickness and health, and whatever life may throw at you both, until death do you part?"

"I do." He slipped the ring onto her finger.

"Do you Angelina, take Michael to be your lawfully wedded husband? Will you honor and cherish him, love, trust, and commit to him, through joy and pain, sickness and health, and whatever life may throw at you both, until death do you part?"

"I do." She lifted his hand and placed the ring on his finger.

"Is there any reason why these two people should not be joined together in holy matrimony? Speak now, or forever hold your peace."

"Nobody better say a fucking thing." Angie warned. "Sorry, Father."

"That's alright. By the power vested in me by God, and the great state of Illinois, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride."

He didn't even wait until the priest was done. He pulled her in and immediately pressed his lips to hers. She wrapped her arms around his neck and smiled against his lips.

"I now present to you, Mr. and Mrs. Michael Berzatto!"

🤍

After hours of partying and socializing with family and friends, the now drunk couple stumbled through the doorway of their hotel room, courtesy of Uncle Jimmy.

"You are so beautiful, you know that?" Michael asked, shedding his shoes and jacket.

Angie kicked her heels across the room before sitting on the bed. "I've been told." She grabbed his tie and pulled him down on top of her.

Their lips connected in a fiery kiss. She undid his tie and tossed it on the floor. Her tongue slipped in between his lips while he unbuttoned his shirt. The sound of heavy panting and rustling of clothes filled the room.

"I've been waiting to get this dress off of you all day." Mikey kissed down her neck, moving to kneel on the floor.

"Before you do that, don't you wanna take off my garter?"

He smirked and slowly lifted the hem of her dress. "Fuck." He whispered when he saw the white lace band around her thigh.

"You like it?"

"Mhm." He kissed her thighs before he gently took the lace in between his teeth, pulling it all the way down her leg.

"You look so good down there." Angie told Michael as she combed through his hair. "So fucking hot."

"Yeah? You like me on my knees for you?" He slowly pulled her panties off. She nodded as Mikey spread her legs and softly kissed her soaking clit. His tongue darted out to lick up her core while his middle and index fingers were sitting at her entrance.

"Shit." She gasped, feeling his tongue circle her clit. He pushed his fingers all the way in, his mouth never parting from her pussy. She tugged on his hair when she felt his fingers hit her g-spot.

"You taste so good, baby." He mumbled into her cunt. His fingers and tongue increased in speed each time she moaned, giving him motivation.

"Oh my god, baby." She whimpered. Her free hand snaked down her body until she found his hand that was resting on her hip. She tangled their fingers together and squeezed his hand tighter with the pleasure she felt.

"You gonna cum, baby?"

"Mhm."

"Come on. Show me how good I'm making you feel." 

"Fuck." She gripped tighter on his hair and hand as she felt herself getting closer. "I'm cumming, baby." She said through labored breaths.

"Come on. I wanna taste you." He began to harshly suck on her clit, bringing her over the edge.

"Shit!"

He stayed on his knees, licking at her arousal until she pulled him up. She leaned up and pulled the zipper on her dress down. Michael helped her out of it, revealing a white lace bra that matched her garter and panties.

"You're so perfect." He stood up and unbuckled his belt, revealing the tent in his pants.

"Me? I could stare at you for hours." She looked up at him wide eyed. 

Once his pants were down, he hovered over her and kissed her neck, slowly taking her bra off. "My pretty baby." He whispered against her skin. His hand came up to cup her breast and his lips moved down to her nipple.

"Baby." She hummed with pleasure. Her hand moved down his chest and it ghosted over the bulge in his boxers. She rubbed him slightly, feeling him grow through the fabric.

"Fuck." He whisper. He sat up to pull off the last piece of clothing separating them. 

Angie wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling him down. He aligned his hardened cock with her soaking entrance, slowly slipping inside.

"Michael." She gasped.

"Oh, shit." He took in a deep breath, adjusting to the feeling of her wrapped around him. He started to slowly move, softly rubbing her clit as he did so.

"Oh my god." Her lips parted and she arched her back towards him.

"You're so pretty, baby. My pretty wife." He cooed in her ear, thrusting in an out of her.

Even in position they were in, Michael still found time to be sweet and gentle with her. She wrapped her legs around his waist, pulling him in closer, wanting to feel all of him.

"I love how you feel." She whispered. "I love you."

"I love you too. So much, honey."

He kissed her softly, their lips molding together in a moment of love and warmth. Every time he thrusted into her, they would gasp into each other's mouth.

"I'm gonna cum again." Her warning came out as a whisper.

"Let go for me, sweetie. Come on, you can gimmie another. Can't you, baby?"

"Oh my god."

Her hands moved to grip his tattooed arms as she came around him. Her orgasm made her walls squeeze around him, encouraging his own release.

"Where do you want it, honey?"

"Inside."

"You sure?"

"Please, Mikey?" She whined.

"Fuck." He thrusted into her a few more times before he finished inside her.

"Mikey." She whispered.

"Yeah, baby?"

She giggled, looking him in the eyes. "I love being your wife."

He kissed all over her face before pressing his lips to hers for a countless time that night. "I love being your husband."

Class of 2008: Chapter 2

Here is the second chapter of the Larry fic I am working on. It is on my AO3, but I am also posting the chapters here for those that prefer it.

pairing: Bad Boy!Harry Styles x Football Captain!Louis Tomlinson

rating: E (smut, grinding, oral (m receiving), handjob, discussion of cloesting, general sexual exploits, cheating?)

word count: 3k

a/n: This fic is set at the start of the school year in 2007 where Louis Tomlinson is captain of the football team and the new freshman wearing leather, lots of rings, and sporting curly hair begins occupying his mind.

It wasn’t until a soft moan slipped from his lips that he realized the compromising position that he found himself in. The impossibly plush mouth of the boy he thought detested him was latched to his neck leaving a different kind of bruise than he had initially thought he would receive when he first laid eyes on the curly headed delinquent.

All of the previously imposed judgements that Louis was predisposed to make towards Harry are fading into the dark room that surrounds them both now, the small boy being pushed up against whatever was hanging in the gym storage room they found themselves locked in at this very moment.

His mind doesn’t have space to think about anything other than the hard on he is quickly developing in his shorts and the biker between his legs. He had seen that leather jacket and thought it was such a cliche, but then again he was a bit of one himself. Captain of the football team, dating the cheer captain, probably going to marry her and have two and a half kids living behind some perfect white-washed picket fence.

All the ideals that were expected of him that he never questioned came tumbling down when he saw that leather jacket. He could barely remember his girlfriend’s name when those aviators were lowered and he was met with the piercing eyes of the most entrancing boy he had ever seen.

Those eyes had led him here. Trapped in the gym storage room after practice with his world being rocked and his head spinning with the reality of what was happening.

[you rock my world - michael jackson]

Harry pulled his mouth from its place on Louis’ neck as he placed one more opened mouth kiss on the flushed skin he had been working over. There was no reason he should be this bold. He never did things like this, but the short football captain pinned beneath him had been tempting him for weeks.

Seeing him running on the football field during practice today was the last straw. He knew he needed to get his hands on the gorgeous tanned skin of the blue-eyed golden boy of the school. He shouldn’t have even been by the football field to see Louis running or be stopped in his tracks when he caught sight of Louis’ pert ass in his shorts, round and perfect, begging to be grabbed.

Harry was sneaking out of detention and he really shouldn’t have stuck around campus for fear of being caught, but there was something mesmerizing about the way Louis flipped his sweat dampened fringe out of his eyes and peered over to meet Harry’s and find him already staring from his secret spot behind the bleachers.

At present, their chests are heaving from the intensity of the moment before. Harry raised his eyes to meet Louis’ as he took a handful of the older boy’s ass, causing a slight gasp to escape his bitten, cherry red lips.

“C-can you k-kiss me again?” Louis stuttered out between ragged breaths before he could realize what he was asking the other boy. Harry chuckled at his frazzled state and flushed skin, caressing his cheek as a wicked smile graced his lips before he lowered them back down to ghost over Louis’.

“How eager for someone so deep in the closet. Literally and figuratively.” His breath brushed gently and impossibly close to Louis’ lips before moving lower to nibble his way down the shorter boy’s sharp jaw finding his home in the curve leading to his neck.

The comment brought Louis slightly back down to earth from where Harry had him floating in the clouds, but his mouth was far too perfect for him to remain there before he ascended again. His shorts tented as he was sure to be sporting an embarrassing erection from only kissing and touching the taller boy.

It wasn’t a lie that he was in the closet, but it wasn’t the whole truth either. He had never thought about it before if he were being honest. Most of his time was occupied by living his life to meet his parents expectations and the goals they had for him.

There was never a boy like Harry before to change his reality. Make him question whether or not he really liked his cheerleader girlfriend, Jennifer, or if he just thought he did because that is what he was supposed to do.

Sure it might have been strange that he’d never had sex with his girlfriend of three years, but she never questioned it so why should he? Louis gently pushed on Harry’s shoulders to make him detach from where he was forming yet another bruise on the sweaty, salty expanse of the football player’s tawny skin.

“Sure, I may be in the closet, but you are the one who goes around acting like I’m the devil incarnate just to turn around and jump my bones after football practice.” His eyes could barely meet the taller boy’s as he made his weak comment. His knees still slightly wobbly and only now realizing he was being held up by the pressure of Harry’s hips against his own.

Harry’s eyebrows drew together in confusion.

“What? I’ve never acted like that. What are you talking about?”

“Well considering this is the first time you have ever spoken to me and it was after you had your tongue down my throat, I wouldn’t say we were very friendly before today.” A sheepish smile came over the curly headed boy’s lips at the remark on their makeout session. Louis gawked slightly, finding it very out of character. Shy was not an emotion often portrayed on the hard features of the leather jacket, metal ring clad boy that was still pressed against his dizzyingly hard cock.

“I don’t always make the best impression on people I guess. You’re just so impossibly frustrating.” He muttered slowly with a roll of his hips causing a breath to get stuck in Louis’ throat. “I thought it would be better if I didn't try to befriend you. Looks like I failed at that as well.”

His palm slid up the smaller boy’s bare thigh, fingers ghosting under the low hanging hem of his basketball shorts, causing goosebumps to form like a trail marking where they had touched. He hooked his hand around the back of his thigh. Keeping direct eye contact, he lifted the football player’s thick leg to wrap around his own waist with another simultaneous roll of his hips causing a high pitched moan to slip from Louis, his head rolling back as pleasure jolted through him.

“I’m the frustrating one?” Louis panted, needing more friction as he felt a familiar pull in his lower belly. “Your dumb curls are frustrating.” A chuckle sounded from Harry as he threw his head back.

“I was referring to a sexual kind of frustration, but I’m glad you find my curls dumb.” It was only then that Louis realized just how hard the other boy was, the impossibly tight jeans he had on not giving much away to his state of arousal thus far.

It shouldn’t come as a surprise given the hot and heavy pace that Harry had immediately inflicted the moment he slipped into the storage closet behind Louis, the rest of the team long gone leaving him to put everything from practice away. But it was Harry that had gotten them locked in when he knocked the door stop out of the way, not knowing that it would lock upon closing.

It was as the door slammed shut that Louis startled, finding the boy hastily approaching him with the words, “I’m going to kiss you now.” mumbled like an afterthought. So it shouldn’t surprise him when Harry tells him that his behavior throughout this school year was not spurred from hatred, but from resisting his urge to pounce on the blue-eyed boy. That thought alone makes Louis even harder if at all possible and he feels he may pass out from the lack of blood flow to his brain.

He can’t be thinking straight because he quickly changes their present position, shoving Harry against the wall, his hands moving from their previous place on the taller boys shoulders to lace themselves in the long dumb curls at the nape of his neck.

He isn’t sure if this confidence is because he is extremely turned on and in need of release or because he has just learned that the mesmerizing bad boy that felt like forbidden fruit had wanted him since the first day of school.

Harry’s surprised face quickly turns into a smirk as he realizes exactly what Louis is doing and submits without question. Their lips are slotted back together immediately with a feverish pace that fuels both of the flames within them.

“Need you...more...all of you.” Harry breathed between messy kisses, his breath almost shuddering with the last word.

Louis pulled back looking him in the eyes, confused at first then realization hitting him. He had never slept with anyone and here he was in the most absurd place being propositioned by the hottest boy he has ever seen. It almost escapes his mind that Harry is three years younger than him despite being so much taller.

“I don’t..I’ve never..” Louis stutters out with a frantic look on his face. He had just admitted he was a virgin even as a senior in high school. He never felt embarrassed by that fact until this very moment. Harry seemed so experienced and like he knew exactly what he was doing when he had approached.

“Neither have I,” The younger boy huffs out, breath still heaving from their last kiss. Louis thinks he must have misheard the boy, but sees that he didn’t when a shy blush wipes across his face.

There it is again, shyness on the confident biker that he had never seen before. It was endearing really. “..wait, you’ve never...with Jennifer?” Louis is the one with a sheepish grin on his face now at the question.

“Uh, no. I mean we’ve done plenty before, but I’ve just never felt the need.” He peered down at the stiffy he was sporting. “Not with her at least.”

“Why are you with her then? Are you really in denial?” Harry’s eyes showed sympathy rather than judgment for the older boy. He hadn’t thought there could be another reason for Louis’ relationship with the cheerleading captain than to be a coverup, but now he thought there may be some other justification.

“Can we not talk about that right now?” Louis takes the younger boy’s hand and places it over his own arousal, earning a mischievous smile from the boy who takes it upon himself to rub the heel of his hand down, a hiss escaping the older boy’s lips at the targeted pressure. His hips roll involuntarily into the other’s hand in search of more movement, chasing his release.

Harry took the noise as encouragement as he continued his ministrations over Louis’ shorts which were becoming increasingly tighter. He moved his mouth over the football captain’s neck, leaving wet open mouthed kisses up and down. The movement and feeling had Louis reeling and pulled even more beautiful noises from him.

Louis’ head rolled back as he let out a groan, his hands taking purchase on the younger boy's shoulders in an attempt to keep himself standing upright despite his knees getting weaker with each movement of the hand on his clothed erection. Harry stepped forward, coaxing Louis to shuffle backwards. It only took a few steps before the back of his legs hit a large stack of gym mats causing him to fall into a sitting position. With a slight flop, his fringe fell into his line of sight and he looked up to see the taller boy peering down at him with a devilish smile and lust blown eyes.

He went to grab at the back of Harry’s thighs, but before he could, he found himself looking straight into his eyes as the boy dropped to his knees in front of Louis. “..shit..” he mumbled out as he realized what was about to happen.

He was about to get his dick sucked by the curled headed bad boy.

“Can I..?” Harry motioned to Louis’ shorts as if to ask permission to remove them. Louis should have been embarrassed at how quickly he nodded in agreement, but he was too far gone now to look back or continue questioning. He could deal with the implications of all of this later.

Harry’s long ring-clad fingers hooked themselves into the elastic band of Louis’ shorts as he pulled them down just far enough to free the aching member between his legs. The cool air hitting his hot skin elicited a hiss from his lips as Harry wasted no time in taking the older boy’s cock by the base as he began to kiss and lick at the tip.

There was no world where Louis thought this is how his day would end up. For someone who said they didn’t have experience, Harry was a master as he began working his way up and down the football captain’s cock. He pulled out all the stops he could think of licking up the vein on the bottom, hollowing out his cheeks, making lewd noises that had Louis reeling. He found his fingers tangling themselves through the head of curls as he felt the band in his stomach pull tighter and tighter the more the younger boy moved.

Harry’s free hand made gentle strokes over Louis’ tan thigh, somewhat soothing and sweet, a stark contrast to the positively pornagraphic way he was sucking dick right now. “Oh fuck…” Louis began to mutter, feeling closer and closer to the edge, his hand gripping tighter in the boy’s hair. His breathing becoming more labored, “god I’m so close, don’t fucking stop” Harry didn’t speed up or slow down, simply continuing exactly at the pace he had set, preparing himself to swallow all of Louis’ release.

“Shit! Oh my god, that’s it, jesus fuck Harry.” His hips bucked up into the boy’s mouth as he came, shooting his release down the other boy’s throat. Harry sputtered slightly at the sudden movement.

Slowly he removed his mouth with a lewd ‘pop’ sound, tucking Louis back into his shorts. He relaxed back onto his heels, panting, his face looking completely fucked out and satisfied.

“Jesus, you’re seriously telling me you’re a virgin?” Louis asked as he tried to regain his composure. Harry just grinned up at him as he leaned forward to lock their lips together. This kiss was much softer and gentler than the ones before.

“Said I was a virgin, never said I hadn’t sucked dick before.” He muttered as he pulled back only inches away from Louis’ face. The older boy chuckled, but quickly remembered that the kind thing to do in this sort of situation would be to reciprocate the action. He moved to pull Harry up to sit next to him on the gym mats. Hands resting on his waist, lips returning to give sweet and gentle kisses to the others. His hand slid down Harry’s side, caressing his hip and moving towards the zipper of his painted on jeans. Harry pulled away to look him in the eyes.

“You don’t have to-”

“I want to. Want you.” He kissed him harder this time, showing he was on a mission. While he wasn’t quite sure he was ready to get on his knees, if there was one thing he knew how to do, it was rub one out. Sliding down the zipper of Harry’s jeans, he moved his hand over the younger boy’s hard-on, pulling a whine from his lips. Louis swallowed it in a deep kiss as his hand dipped beneath his boxer shorts, finally making contact with the boy’s rock hard cock.

He began slow languid movements up and down the boy’s member, hand loose, gentle caressing in a way that could almost be interpreted as teasing. He licked into Harry’s mouth as the younger boy began sporting a bead of sweat on his brow and uneven breaths. Louis picked up the pace of his strokes and tightened his fist, working up the hill towards the younger boy’s climax. He pulled away from Louis’ mouth, a pathetic whine slipping from his lips. He rested his head on the older boy’s shoulder, nuzzling further into his neck as he started seeing stars.

“More..” he muttered as he gripped tighter onto Louis’ shoulders, the older boy applying more pressure by tightening his fist further. Harry’s brow knit in what could only be described as desperation. Desperate to cum and release all of his pent up feelings from weeks of pining after the football captain. His jaw went slack as he came over Louis’ fist, a low groan rumbling from his lips that Louis chased with a kiss equally as desperate as Harry was a second ago.

Pulling his lips away, Louis’ fist stilled as he gently released the younger boy’s now slowly softening member. He raised his hand to his mouth and licked off the other boy’s release, staring deep into his green eyes. Harry balked at the sight. “..jesus..” he muttered as he couldn’t quite believe what he was seeing. Louis’ lips wrapped around his fingers as he finished off the last bit of cum, a ‘pop’ noise being made similar to the one Harry had made when he had finished blowing him earlier.

“Couldn’t let it go to waste now could I?” He chuckled as Harry still looked at him with awe. A grin spread across the curly haired boy’s face as he pressed a chaste kiss to Louis’ mouth.

“You are full of surprises today.” He said as he tucked himself back into his jeans and zipped them up. They straightened out their clothes and hair to an acceptable state before they remembered that they were indeed locked inside of the supply closet.

“Any idea how to get us out of here?” Harry asked as he looked around the room for some sign of another exit. Louis pointed up to a small window on the back wall.

“That window doesn’t have a lock on it, we can try climbing out that way.” He laughed at Harry’s face of amusement as he began moving the gym mats they were just on over towards the window. Harry boosted Louis up out of the window before pulling himself up and out.

He landed on the ground with a grunt, dusting himself off as he got up to tower over Louis once more.

“Shit! What time is it?” Louis checked his blank wrist as if to find a watch, hands patting his person looking for his phone, which he now realized was back in the locker room in his bag. Harry pulled his phone from his back pocket, flipping it open to see the time.

“Around 6 o’clock, why?” He replaced the phone in his pocket.

“Fuck! I was supposed to meet Jen and the guys for pizza a little bit ago. I’m sorry to rush off like this, but I really need to go.” He moved to begin running towards the locker room to gather his stuff when Harry grabbed his hand and pulled them together, lips crashing into the shorter boy’s.

“Have fun.” He said as he pulled away, leaving Louis a little dumbstruck. “Yeah..” he muttered, still a little dazed at the sudden kiss as he turned to sprint towards the school.
