Who: Adrian Battye and Jackson London When: December 30th, (after Jackson's audition) Where: London What: PWP Rating/Warnings: sexiness Status: Closed/Complete
Jackson had been practicing more than ever, and his second to last audition had just (well, a few hours ago) finished. It was a lot of work, yes, but if he got a place it would all be worth it. He probably wouldn't know for some time, but that was okay. Hopefully anyway. It was a lot of stress too, since he was uncertain if he would get in. Being with Adrian was calming though. Probably right now the only thing that could calm him down.
A smile curved his lips as he turned to the side on the bed they were sharing. He touched Adrian’s cheek lightly and leaned to brush a kiss over his lips. “It's pretty nice here, don't you think?” Because having their own room was really good. Much better than sharing.
Adrian had been to London before, but it had been different seeing it with Jackson and his family. It had been different when they were here evaluating it as a possible future place to live - at least for 4 years while one went to university. It made a different way of looking at things. Still there was a relatively simple answer to Jackson's questions. "It is, yes." Adrian would let Jackson lead the discussion if he wanted to go deeper.
Jackson smiled a little more broadly, his fingers trailing over the other’s arm. He liked being able to touch and be close like this. Being in London, someplace entirely new to him, would have been a lot more unsettling if he hadn't been with Adrian. “Did you want to look at some of the schools here? Or tomorrow should we just wander around and see what we can find?” Because it would be New Year's Eve and it might be nice to go to eat or something together to celebrate.
"Professor Stark gave me a couple suggestions. He knows the muggle university system better, and it seemed to give him something to do that made him feel useful." Adrian had made sure nothing for him was scheduled until after Jackson's audition so he could focus entirely on him until he was past the nerve-wracking part of the trip. And really, Adrian was still completely unsure and overwhelmed by what was a complete change in his plans for the immediate future. He had an accepted picture of what his life was going to be… and university hadn't been part of it. "But if you want to wander around city, that would be fun."
“We’ll do that then. Maybe go someplace interesting for dinner, have something we can't get at home?” Because he was feeling curious and figured that it would be a good idea to expose himself to the foods that were popular here. If he got into WADA he would have to get used to new things when he wasn't cooking, and food was honestly one thing he was always adventurous with anyway. A faintly wicked spark shone in his eyes as he kissed Adrian again, and he smirked. “Or we could stay in and I can just have you….”
Adrian couldn't help but smile a little at Jackson's alternative suggestion. "What do you think you have right now?" He teased. "Or are we not alone in a hotel room in another country?" His words questioned, but he shifted closer to Jackson and let his hand settle on Jackson's thigh.
“We are…” A teasing nip of Adrian’s neck and Jackson trailed his fingers along his lover’s side. “I think we should stay in. Order room service, sparkling cider to toast the new year, and we can just… celebrate together.” Because that would be much more fun than trying to find a place that wasn't just going to be drunk people central.
"Tonight? Or do you mean the entire weekend?" Adrian teased even as he shifted into Jackson's touch. It was so simple, and yet Adrian felt a disproportionate response to that specific touch. His own hand moved a little more to the inside of Jackson's thigh. He might be questioning, but it didn't mean he wasn't interested in Jackson. "Isn't tomorrow the night for toasts with sparkling things?" Adrian expected they would go to the hotel's event with Jackson's parents for that… the parents were out sightseeing today now that Jackson was done.
“Both?” A grin and he leaned in for another kiss, wanting the shared warmth and the connection the touches offered. “We can order chocolates and some kind of dinner and just eat here…” Together. Possibly naked. Probably really. He traced along Adrian’s side again, allowing their eyes to meet. He wanted his lover. That was a constant. “I think I like the idea of staying in for a while.”
Adrian shivered a little at Jackson's continued caress along his side. "Well, we did tell your parents we just wanted to relax at the hotel after your audition." There were different ways they could 'relax', obviously. "Do you think they'll want to see you for dinner, or?" Adrian had been trying not to distract Jackson and keep Jackson's parents comfortable both with the foreign travel and with the newly re-established relationship with their son.
“Most likely they'll eat while they're out.” Jackson settled another kiss on Adrian’s neck, his hand remaining on his side. “We can eat here. Together.” Because it would be necessary to keep their strength up. He trailed some more kisses over his lover’s neck before meeting his eyes again. “Is there anything specific you'd like?”
Adrian moved to kiss Jackson on the mouth again. Speaking of eating, though, "Oral?" Adrian murmured into his ear. It was one interpretation of Jackson's request to eat there… together. It wasn't the answer to Jackson's question about what Adrian wanted. Adrian wanted to do whatever Jackson wanted, really.
“Yes,” Jackson murmured softly. That would be good. He would like that, and like giving it in return. His hands slipped to Adrian’s hips, pulling him closer and holding him there. “Do you even know what being with you does to me, lover?”
The honest truth was Adrian didn't really know that. He couldn't see himself the way others saw him, especially not given Jackson's reverence for him. But he liked being with the other boy… liked touching him and the way that Jackson touched him. "It's just me," Adrian finally answered, avoiding eye contact now but kissing other parts of Jackson.
“That's the point.” Jackson shifted closer, pulling Adrian even tighter against him. His body was responding instinctively to his lover and he smiled lightly. “I want you. No imitations. Just Adrian Battye.” He traced fingers along the other’s side again, knowing the response it would bring and wanting to see it, watch his lover take pleasure in all his touches.
Adrian was reacting easily to the touch, the response clear in his body as it was in Jackson's. It had been like this from the start with them - before they'd even acknowledged their attraction to each other. Knowing the attraction - what the other especially responded to only made it more potent. That was what Jackson was responding too. Adrian knew he wasn't really special. But for this moment it was easy to forget that there was anything in the world outside of this room and what he and Jackson had together. And they had Jackson's skin exposed as Adrian began undressing him.
To Jackson, Adrian was special. Showing him that was the important thing. Words didn't matter. Making Adrian feel good, making him forget anything that made him feel unworthy? That was what mattered. And Merlin, the touch on his skin as Adrian took his clothes mattered too. His own hands moved to work in concert with his friend, launching a direct attack on the buttons of his shirt even as Adrian did the same to him.
Jackson's skin was far too tempting - far too appealing. It felt good beneath his hands and his mouth too. Adrian was still pleasantly surprised that he and Jackson were together at all, honestly and that he could touch Jackson this way and that Jackson still wanted to touch him. This was a good way to celebrate Jackson's audition and being in London together.
