Omniscient Narrative
“You hurt me and I was angry for so long, I was angry and I was so sad Alex” he sniffed.
Alex stood there, he didn’t know what to say, he wanted to reach out to him and cuddle him in a hug but he knew that Demi needed this, he needed to vent.
“I’m sorry Demi, I honestly didn’t mean for all of this happen”
Demi walked over to the window, his arms crossed and his back to Alex.
"You had shut me out," Demi said, voice low, controlled, but cracking at the edges. "For months, Alex. You built a fortress and left me outside the gates”
“I didn’t want to sleep with you after that night but you brought up the arrangement for us to do this without feelings, completely disregarding the fact that we were best friends” his tears are long forgotten now.
‘Were’
"Okay, but you agreed to it, so you can’t put all the blame on me” Alex shot back, his eyes were red-rimmed, he looked tired.
“I admit it’s both our faults but the way you went about it was wrong” Demi had to stop himself from yelling at Alex.
“I was going through it all and I thought I had my best friend but you really gave me the biggest slap on the face” Demi glared at him.
“I was also going through some things!”
Demi finally turned, and the look on his face was raw, it held hurt and anger and love all tangled together.
“You think I didn't know you were struggling? You think I wouldn't have held you through it? But you wouldn't let me!”
Alex walked over to him in three long strides, stopping inches from Demi.
The heat of their bodies stirring the stale air between them. "I didn't know how to let you and if I’m being honest I still don't”
"Then learn," Demi whispered, his hand coming up to rest on Alex's chest, feeling the rapid thud of his heart. "Learn now. Because I'm still here. I'm still fucking here, Alex”
“even after the way you used and disposed of m-“
“I didn’t use you!” Alex cried out.
“It felt like it, I felt like you were figuring out somethings with yourself and you saw me there and used me and when you found out something about yourself you threw me away”
“I don’t care how much I’m going to apologize, but I’m sorry Demi, I really didn’t mean for all of that happen, I’m sorry”
“Please…forgive me” he whispered, his eyes moving from Demi’s eyes to his lips and back to his eyes.
The tension snapped.
Alex's hands shot up, grabbing Demi's face, pulling him into a kiss that was anything but gentle.
It was desperate and angry, teeth clashing, breaths mingling.
Demi moaned into it, his fingers curling into the fabric of Alex's shirt, pulling him closer until there was no space left between them.
Alex broke the kiss, panting, forehead pressed to Demi's.
“I'm still mad, at myself, at the world and most importantly, at the time I wasted being a coward”
"Good” Demi breathed, his voice shaking. "Then fuck me like you mean it. Fuck me like you're sorry and like you're furious and like you never want to let go."
The words hit Alex like a spark to gasoline. He grabbed Demi by the hips, spinning him around and slamming him against the nearest wall.
The impact knocked the breath from Demi's lungs, but he moaned, arching into the pressure.
"Take off your clothes” Alex growled, stepping back just enough to yank his own shirt over his head. "Now”
Demi didn't hesitate. His fingers fumbled with buttons and zippers, shedding his jeans and boxers, leaving himself bare against the cool plaster.
“Room now” they both went over to the room Alex was staying in.
Alex's eyes roamed over him, lean muscle, hard nipples, the curve of his ass, the half-hard cock now fully stiffening.
"On the bed. Face down”
Demi obeyed, crawling onto the mattress, pressing his chest to the sheets, arching his back in invitation.
Alex followed, his weight settling over Demi's body, the heat of his skin searing.
"Tell me what you want," Alex murmured, his lips brushing Demi's ear, his hand sliding down the curve of Demi's spine until it reached the crack of his ass.
"You” Demi gasped, pushing back against Alex's hand. "I want you inside me. I want to feel you for days, it’s been so long”
Alex's fingers traced the rim of Demi's hole, teasing, dipping just slightly. Demi whimpered, spreading his legs wider. "Please, Alex. Don't make me beg”
"Oh, but I want you to," Alex said, his voice dark, but soft. He pulled his hand away, reaching for the lube in the nightstand drawer-he had noticed it there when he first arrived-.
The click of the cap was loud in the silence. "I want to hear you beg. After all the silence, I want to hear every sound you've been holding back”
Demi turned his head, meeting Alex's gaze over his shoulder. His eyes were wet, but there was a smile tugging at his lips.
“Then make me. Make me forget every reason we had to stay apart”
Alex's slick fingers found Demi's entrance again, circling, pressing.
Demi let out a shaky breath as one finger slid in, then two, stretching him slowly, deliberately.
Alex watched his face, the way his brow furrowed, the way his lips parted.
"More” Demi whispered. "I can take more”
Alex added a third finger, scissoring, stretching, until Demi was a writhing mess beneath him.
“You're so tight” Alex murmured ‘do you and Chris even have sex’ he wanted to ask.
"You’re perfect. I missed this. I missed you” he leaned in to kiss his back.
"Then take me” Demi begged, his voice breaking. "Please, Alex. Fuck me”
Alex withdrew his fingers, positioning himself at Demi's entrance. The head of his dick pressed against the slick rim, and he paused, leaning down to press a kiss to the back of Demi's neck.
"I love you Demi” Alex said, he knew Demi might misinterpret it for a friend way but he knew what he meant and he meant it.
Then he pushed in.
Demi cried out, a guttural sound of relief and pleasure, his fingers fisting the sheets.
Alex buried himself to the hilt, the tight heat of Demi's ass clenching around him.
He stilled, letting Demi adjust, feeling the tremor run through his body.
"Move” Demi gasped. "Fuck, move, Alex”
Alex began to move, slow, deep strokes at first. Demi met him thrust for thrust, pushing back, the angle driving Alex's cock deep into his prostate with every motion.
"I was so scared” Alex confessed, his rhythm growing faster, harder. "Scared of needing you this much”
"You have me now” Demi sobbed, tears staining the pillow. "You've always had me, you were just to scared to claim me”
Alex's hand slid around Demi's hip, gripping his cock, stroking in time with his thrusts. "Come for me," he commanded, his own voice breaking. "Let me feel you let go”
Demi's body tightened, a shudder running through him as he came, hot and thick over Alex's fingers, his ass clenching rhythmically around Alex's dick.
The sensation pushed Alex over the edge, his hips stuttering as he spilled deep inside Demi, a guttural groan tearing from his throat.
For a long moment, they stayed like that, their bodies tangled, breaths ragged, the weight of the past slowly lifting.
Alex pulled out gently, collapsing beside Demi, pulling him into his arms. Demi turned, burying his face in Alex's chest, tears soaking into his skin.
"I'm sorry Demi” Alex whispered, pressing kisses to Demi's hair. "I'm so sorry."
Demi looked up, his eyes red but soft. "Stop apologizing. Just stay, please”
Alex held him tighter. "I don’t think I can leave”
They lay there. Demi traced patterns on Alex's chest, and Alex's hand rested on Demi's hip, grounding them both in the present.
"I meant what I said," Demi murmured. "I never stopped loving you”
Alex kissed the top of his head. "I’m sorry I was too much of a coward”
Demi smiled, small and genuine, and nestled closer. "You said you’ll make up for it and I hope you will keep to your words”
“I won’t let you down. I promise Demi”
