Patrick was confused for a moment, not understand what Marcus was saying, but when he finally got the meaning, he smacked Marcus' arm. "You're horrible. You shouldn't be making fun of him when I'm suffering for my brilliancy."
He snorted, because that was very close to the truth. "I can't do this, Marcus. I can't be monogamous. I told him that, but I also don't want to hurt anyone. I don't want to hurt you. I don't know how bad it might get."
The fact that they weren't supposed to do this didn't stop him from wanting it. Patrick held Marcus' head so he could kiss him again, his body pressed against Marcus'. "It's Christmas. It won't go fast. Are you coming to the house for dinner? I want to spend some time with you.. Fuck, now I sound like those stupid witches' romances, cross star lovers and all that bull."
He smiled. "No, we can celebrate a day or two after. Sunday. You can stay away from the club for one day, can't you? We'll spend it together."
