Saving Me [MxM]

Chapter 04 (Part Two)

Nathan had to put his head down on the counter by the register in an attempt to hide his laughter. He cleared his throat after a second, trying to compose himself. "You know what's odd. Justin hasn't popped up yet. Isn't that odd?"

"You know. Now would be an excellent time for Justin to show up." Varian agreed. Evan grinned.

"Yes, because as fun as it is to watch Varian work, Justin is far more entertaining to tease."

Speak of the Devil, and he shall appear. Elle had said that a few times, and Nathan couldn't help but recall it as Justin walked in through the door with a heavy sigh that Nathan immediately knew was from some sort of boredom. Nathan rose his head, and his eyebrows. "Holy shit. Look at that. I'm psychic."

Justin didn't have time to respond as Evan jumped off his chair and practically just appeared in front of Justin, suddenly hugging him tightly. Nathan believed the usual term used was 'glomp', which, he had to admit, fit. What threw him off was how fast Evan moved- he'd forgotten Changed vampires can move that fast. Justin froze up for a second, obviously not expecting Evan's attack. "Okay then. Hello to you as well." he said, making Nathan laugh again.

Evan pulled away, ruffling Justin's hair. "Hey there cutie." he said, smiling down at Justin. Nathan noted that Varian glanced over from his work, but remained silent. Justin blushed slightly and rolled his eyes, bringing up his hands in an attempt to flatten his hair back down.

"You have no idea how long it takes to get this stuff to lay flat."

"Oh, honey, you're talking to me. I spend an hour and a half on my bangs alone." Evan said, putting a hand on his hip. "And that's not even including make up." he added, pointing at his eyes.

Justin sighed quietly and looked Evan over for a second before looking over at Nathan. "Originally my plan was to come in and complain about how bored I was to you." 

Nathan snorted quietly in response. 

"Well come on and join the conversation. Varian just said he'd sleep with Adam Lambert." Evan said, jerking his thumb over his shoulder at Varian, who sighed and rubbed at his temple. Justin tilted his head, looking at Varian curiously.

"So Nathan has to look like Adam Lambert in order to get you to sleep with him?"

"I'm not a huge fan of role play." Varian commented. "I suppose it doesn't help any that Adam Lambert is a natural blonde though."

"Look Nathan! There's hope for you!" Justin said, smiling at Nathan, who only rose an eyebrow and chose not to comment.

"Wait. Hold on a second." Evan said, holding up a hand and turning to Varian. "You haven't slept with your boyfriend yet? What the hell is wrong with you? You're a Changed vampire for crying out loud." 

Varian rubbed at his temple again. "I have the right to abstain from sex if I want to." he said. Nathan glared at Justin, who sucked his lips into his mouth and held up his hands. Of course, Nathan supposed he couldn't be mad at Justin. He didn't know all the details of the situation. But still.
