When: Wednesday
Where: Jason’s apartment and Club Bronze
Rating: Some violence and sexual slight content
Once Morgan was off to school and Jason and Zel had breakfast they rested on his couch. She’d called into work and the previous night he’d arranged for his classes to be covered. “How are you doing this morning?” He asked, in a casual set of shorts and a t-shirt. Jason had plans for later, but to start, he wanted to see how she was doing after almost dying the previous night.
--
Before Morgan left for school, the boy hugged Zel tightly. A soft smile given as he waved off. With Morgan gone, it left Zel and Jason alone as they ate breakfast and then moved to the couch. When he asked how she was doing she came to shrug slightly. “Head, still hurts a little.” She said softly as she came to look over at him for the moment. “I think if I’m going to be staying here, we’re going to need a bigger bed.” She said softly teasing.
--
He nodded at her assessment of how she was doing. “He’ll get better. He’s staying over at the neighbors tonight.” Jason informed with a chuckle. He had a King bed, the only furniture he had before she came permanently into his life. “We’re going out.”
--
She shook her head. “It’s fine, Jason. It’s not like I’m staying permanently.” A few days, that’s what they agreed on. When he mentioned Morgan was staying at the neighbors she raised a brow. “We are?” She said about the going on part. “Where?” She asked as she came to brush that blonde hair from her face. Wondering what he had up his sleeve.
--
“Out.” Jason ran a hand through his hair. He suddenly felt very vulnerable. “You’ve let me see your darker side. I figure you should see mine.” He held up a hand to her before she could interject. “I’m not planning on doing anything with anyone. But I think seeing… you might understand.”
--
Zel came to exhale when he told her what he had planned. “...Jason..” She said taking his hand. “It’s fine, if you want to give in and do something with someone else.” She assured him as she came to exhale for the moment. “Understand what? I told you already, it doesn’t bother me.” She said placing her hand on his chest. “I won’t always be able to give you what you need.” She said as she caressed his chest softly.
--
He slipped his fingers into her hair and smiled down at her. “We’ll play all of that by ear. But it’s not…” he wasn’t sure she really understood how his addiction wasn’t just ‘something fun’. Esme has seen him break down with self hate over it, but Zel has been a tool of it. He needed her to understand. “It’s not just fun.” By that evening it would be a bit more than three days since they’d slept together. He was already having to watch his temper.
--
Something about the way Jason looked and sounded had her caressing the side of his face. “Hey..” She said as she swallowed a bit. “Alright… Show me.” She said softly as she rested her head against his for the moment, as she let her thumb trail over his bottom lip. “Like you said, no more rules. Just try.” Already she came to kiss his nose softly. Whatever he was dealing with on the inside, Zel could feel it wasn’t anything good. And for a moment, that scared her.
--
He hoped that once she had a better understanding of him, they’d be in a better place. He knew there would be no jealousy between them, but sleeping around… it was just his version of her taking drugs and while he didn’t want to be with anyone but her, he didn’t want to find himself lying to her and sneaking around. He smiled at the small kiss and pulled her into a real one.
—————————
Later that night, the two of them dressed, Jason slipped into the tight jeans that hugged his ass and a t-shirt that showed off his chest. He did up his hair and even put on some black eyeliner. The cuff on his wrist and silver chain around his neck… he was clearly dressed to attract a certain type of person and it probably wasn’t someone like Zel. After finishing getting ready he came out of the bathroom and let her see his look. It was drastically different than his work out style he tended to have at work for his classes or the suit and tie proper dress he wore when he’d see her. “So, you ready?”
--
To be honest, Zel was nervous. To the point where she had shown up at Merritts office. Of course she warned him of what Jason had planned, so he wouldn’t show up suddenly. While Jason dressed in the bathroom, Zel really didn’t know what to expect. Blonde hair would be in light natural waves as always as she had slipped on a pair of see-through tights and a grey tight fitted dress that came to just under her ass. The dress alone hugged her curves naturally. So when Jason came out, she was sitting on the edge of the bed, strapping her heels. That gave her three more inches to her small height. But when he came into her view, Zel could only come to a stand and stare at him. It was like he was a different person. Which made her all the more nervous now. “...Yeah, I’m ready..” She answered.
--
Jason chuckled. “Just a club.” He wasn’t taking her to the black or anywhere he’d ended up when he was desperate, which thankfully was rare. He was taking her to The Bronze, one of the best gay nightclubs in New Dublin and it was located in neutral territory between the SSR and The Wire. They took the train in, sitting separately as the point of the evening was for her to see one of his normal nights. While nothing happened on the train eyes were made by a man about ten years his senior who got off three stops before them. For the last three stops he moved next to Zel as they were the only ones left on the train. “If I was alone I probably would have followed that guy off at the last stop.” He told her honestly.
--
She came to smile when he said it was just a club. A firm nod was given as well as what to do once on the train. Zel came to sit about five seats away from Jason. Between the various stops, it was easy for her to see the guy staring at him from the distance. She couldn’t help but swallow as she slowly started getting this bad feeling in her stomach. Of course, Zel had a few guys try talking to her, even trailing their fingers up her crossed leg as she snickered at whatever they said. But when it was finally them alone, and Jason say back next to her and told her what he would have done she nodded. “He definitely wanted to fuck you.” She said with a firm nod. She’d seen the face, she knew that look.
--
“I know.” Jason said with a nod. “I would have too.” His tone wasn’t bragging or jovial like talking to the boys it was very matter of fact. He knew he had a problem and was very conscious of it. Normally he just chose to ignore it.
Once they got to their stop the two of them hopped off the train and ventured up to the street. The line for the club was long, circling around the block. And it didn’t seem to be moving. “Looks like a slow night.” He commented.
--
She wanted to say he should of. But that wasn’t the point of tonight. When they arrived to their stop and go to the club she headed to waited in line. Zel noticed it was mainly men, but he did say he liked getting head and fucked by men more. So it was to be expected. When he said it was a slow night she chuckled softly. Still, she didn’t really want anyone thinking they were together so she kept her distance a bit behind him. After all this was his night, to show her his demons, so she wanted to be in the background as much as possible, so she could see just how bad it really was.
--
He took her hand as she started to get into line. “Come on. We gotta get in first.” Jason chuckled. He escorted her to the front of the line and the bouncer nodded to him calling him ‘Jay’ and letting them in when he said Zel was with him. The place was two stories, the bottom floor had two bars on opposite walls and upstairs was roped off with another bar for VIPs. The dance floor took up most of the room with a few tables around the edges and the DJ booth suspended above the dance floor. “This is The Bronze.”
--
When they got to the front and that nickname was said she didn’t say anything. She simple followed Jason inside. Emerald eyes looking all around and soon up to the DJ booth. The first thing she thought of, was how the hell did he get up there. Slowly her hand came to let go of Jason’s as she exhaled. A soft kiss to his cheek was given. “Show me.” She said softly as she came to take a few steps away from him. Zel had glanced around for the moment as she noticed a few guys already looking at Jason. That unsettling feeling coming back to her stomach, as she pushed it down and ignored it.
--
Jason nodded to her and moved into the club. He glanced around and yea had some attention in that of wandering eyes. Then one young man approached him, the way the two interacted made it clear they knew each other. Jason was lead to a table with a handful of other guys standing around a table, and introduced as Jay. He and Zel has set up so she could hear into his conversations through his phone and her ICD. Even still the club was loud and not everything was picked up. Drinks were bought for the table, Jason didn’t have to pay and after a second round of shots one of the guys dragged him to the dance floor.
The beat thumped and the two danced close. The other guys hands were all over Jay as their hips ground together. Sweat beaded from his forehead and to anyone but the person sleeping with him, it probably would have been really hot to watch. Some point in the second song the two were joined by a third, dancing behind Jason, lips could be seen on his neck.
--
It was like moths to a flame almost. The minute Jason stepped out to the dance floor he was picked up by someone who seemed to know him, and taken to a table with a bunch of other men. In truth it was hard to pick up what they were saying half the time. So, she relied on just watching. Zel wasn’t a drinker but for the moment she had one in her hand. Slowly she watched as Jason went to dance with the other. She watched as sweat formed on his forehead and his hips pressed into the others. Zel hadn’t realized it, but she had froze up watching. Her heart was racing rapidly as she watched the third join them. Swallowing hard she came to take that drink and gulp the entire thing in one motion. It was to the point where she had to look away from the dance floor really. Exhaling deeply as she let the bartender take her glass. Zel knew that the dancing wasn’t much, but for some reason it bothered her.
--
The music pulsed through his veins and for that moment he forgot who he’d come with. Three days and even longer since it had been someone new. Feeling hands on him he smiled, as the moved with the beat, his shirt seemed to get tighter as some sweat clung to him. As lips found his neck he turned his head to look at the guy behind him and smiled widely, their lips met as the other man’s hands ran down his chest.
Three songs in he turned to face the other dance partner. A finger looped through his belt loop and pulled him close. He felt another hand run over the front of his pants, a soft brief moan escaped him as he bit his lip. As the other man came close his lips met his ear “God, You’re hot. Come with me to the back?”
The other partner came up behind him and added. “Come with us.” The two pressed close to Jay as they kissed each other over his shoulder. He hadn’t expected his first night back at the club to be so… successful.
--
Zel had glanced from time to time at Jason. It was very obvious he was lost in the moment of the men, the kissing and dancing. So it made it hard to watch. But when she heard their questions, Zel had come to switch off that ICD by touching the back of her ear. She was also certain Merritt could feel it. The insecurity that washed over her mixed with slight depression. “Another.” She told the bartender about her drink as he came to pour her a glass.
A deep sigh escaped her, when a male approached her, and that brow of hers arched up. Apparently she had a new ‘bff’ and he was very… flamboyant, was nicely putting it. Still, as her drink came and she took a sip, she was suddenly dragged to the dance floor. The music caused the man to dance close to Zel, as she gave in to the music. That and alcohol in her system right now. At some point, she was almost dipped back, as she felt a hand come down between her breast and stomach. Gay men, so sneaky she thought.
But by the time she was pulled back up, she glanced and came to notice she’d lost sight of Jason. But soon the feel of hands to her hips came next as another danced behind her, gripping her firmly and grinding into her, as her arms came around the neck of the one in front of her as she danced between them.
--
Jason found himself lead from the dance floor but didn’t get very far before he stopped. Jay gave each guys a kiss and thanked them but backed out. They both looked a little disappointed, apparently his reputation had proceeded him. With a sigh he turned to head back to the dance floor and saw Zel dancing. He smiled slightly.
Heading over he ran a hand across the ‘flamboyant’ guys shoulders. “Maxy!” He said coming around the side of the three.
--
Zel had her eyes closed, so she didn’t see Jason come up behind Maxy. But she sure heard his voice, which caused her to stop dancing along with the other. “Jay!” Is all Maxy said as he smiled brightly. Before Zel could say or do anything Maxy had grabbed her and spun her around. “Isn’t she just the cutest! And look! Real!” He said as he came to smack her ass and squeeze her breast.
“Hey hey.” She said swatting Maxy away as she grumbled a bit. “No touching the goods I said.” Maxy laughed as Zel exhaled deeply. “Jay this is Ash. Ash this is Jay.” Zel simply came to look at Jason. “Hi” She said as the other guy behind her pinched her ass, which caused her to jump slightly and stumble into Jason from surprise.
--
That smile on Jason’s lips spoke volumes that only she could read. He caught her and helped her keep her footing. “Gay guys so handsy.” He chuckled. That wink to Max was almost a tic as it spoke to their past. Turning to Zel he nodded his head. “It’s nice to meet you.” He then looked to the third. “Ash.” Well this game was fun. For a brief moment while his hands were on her Jason almost reached between her legs. He didn’t, didn’t move to but that urge had been there despite being in the middle of a dance floor.
--
When Jason held her she came to lick at her lips as she felt his hands were on her. “Straight men are no better.” She replied as she came to place her hands on his chest and pull away for the moment. Giving them each room. Mainly giving herself space, between the three men.
Maxy though wrapped his arms around her and hugged her from behind. “I’m going to charge you, I swear it.” She said swatting him away as she snickered slightly. But it seems another man had been watching her, as he came to approach the small group. Ignoring the three men, as he approached Zel’s personal space, which caused her to step back for a moment as the man smirked at her. “Dance with me.” Is all he said as he came to pull Zel away from the group, as Maxy shoved her away. “Go, dance, get laid for me!” He shouted laughing as Zel came to the center of the dance floor.
The music had come to change beat to something with more rhythm, which caused the man to pull Zel more into him, as his leg came between hers as he danced closely to her, while his hand rested on her lower back, while the other on her side.
--
He watched her, he felt a small fire in his gut flare up. It wasn’t jealousy in the traditional sense. It wasn’t the idea of her being with someone else. But more of her being with someone else without him. Max leaned on his shoulder and said something that he barely registered. His eyes focused on Zel, as he clenched a fist.
--
The thing about bi men, was they knew how to tease both sexes. So, with the man’s leg between Zels he applied force as his knee pressed against her clit slightly, the low moan had escaped her as her eyes closed for the moment. The man smirked as he glanced to Jason and the others as he winked for the moment. His lips came against her neck, before the man pulled Zel into a heated kiss, as his hand came to grip at her ass for the moment.
Maxy simply cheered looking to Jay. “God, I love this club.” Is all he said as he was oblivious to Jason’s fist clenching at his sides.
Her hands pressed to the man’s chest as he pulled away. His frame still dancing to the music around them while holding Zel close.
--
The room tunneled for a moment and two sides pulled at Jay. He turned to Maxy and cupped one side of his face as he pulled him into a long, deep kiss. He wasn’t aware his eyes were getting red as they tried not to tear up. Once the kiss was broken, he looked the other man square in the eyes and said, with a palpable intensity, “I need someone to fuck me now, or I’m going to kick someone’s ass.” Jason took Max’s hand and looked back to Ash before he almost dragged the man from the dance floor.
--
It was easy to get lost in moments.But when she heard Jason, emerald eyes came to look at him. Already she came to pull away from the other guy dancing with her. Quickly she had tried to move towards Jason, but that man she was dancing with had come to grab at her again and pulled her back. “Hey, where you going. I was thinking we’d go to the back and have some more fun.” He said with a smirk.
Zel came to shake her head lightly. “Sorry, but I like to tease.” She said playfully as she tried to pull away once more. But the man came to stare as he narrowed his eyes. Only to slip his hand between her legs and feel her panties that had gotten wet. A slight gasp escaped her lips as she came to pull away with a bit more force.
Stumbling back, as she fixed at her dress.
--
Max stopped, stopping Jason who turned just in time to see the guy put a hand up Zel’s skirt. That phrase ‘and he saw red’ wasn’t quite right in this case, the red didn’t come until after. He went blind with rage a moment, only fully coming to from his actions as Maxy and Ash each had him by and arm and were pulling him off the guy. His knuckles were bloody but it was unclear if he’d cut them of it it all belonged to the guy laying out on the dance floor. Thankfully Jason only got a few blows in before his acquaintances pulled him off, else the man may have been a lot worse for wear.
The two men pulled Jason away and off the dance floor, beckoning Zel to follow. They slipped into one of the bathrooms and their large, accommodating stalls, not caring if Zel followed into the men’s room. They sat Jason on the toilet- who’s seat was thankfully down. Jason closed his eyes and unclenched his fits. Cursing under his breath at the fact he’d just lost it.
--
It all happened in slow motion. At least for Zel, that’s how it looked. Jason had that man on the floor and the next was just chaos. She tried to get him off the man. “Jay, Jay it’s fine!” She screamed out, but nothing. Finally when the others pulled him off, Zel quickly followed. Stopping inside the bathroom, as she came to stand against the door.
Watching as Jason’s fist unclenched. When Maxy came to check on her, she shook her head. “I’m fine…” It was her trademark saying when she wasn’t fine. But emerald eyes came to watch Jason as her eyes were lined with red, as she held back tears for the moment. Steps slowly taking her towards him. “...Jay…” She said swallowing down, as she came to grab the rag one of the men had in their hand.
Already she came to her knees, not caring if the floor was clean or not, as she came to take his face and wipe it free and soon his hand came into hers as she started cleaning off the blood.
--
His knuckles weren’t really damaged, he’d have a small bruise, but he was well trained and knew how to throw a punch. For a moment it was just him an Zel, or it felt that way. “I’m sorry.” He said softly to her. His eyes refocusing slightly on her.
Behind them Max and Ash just watched the two of them, one of them (Jason wasn’t sure which) commented how it had been kinda hot. The way Jason took down the asshole.
--
Of course to anyone outside the relationship, it seem hot. But to someone inside the relationship, it wasn’t. Sure, Zel had seen Jason fight before with the Johanthans. But this was different, he was different here. And that almost scared her. When he started to apologize she shook her head. “...It’s fine…” She said softly. She came to whisper so only Jason could hear her. ‘...I.. Wanna go home.. You can stay if you want, it’s fine…” She said softly as eyes lined red.
Her frame came to a stand as she looked to Max and Ash. “I’m gonna head home. Too much excitement for me.” She replied with a fake smile, since they would never know the truth.
--
Jason got up and moved to her quickly, pulling her close but not forcefully. “No, please. I’ll come with.” He said softly, resting the side of his head against hers. No fake smile, no kind word to the other men, for the moment it was only Zel. “It’s not fine.” He whispered in her ear.
--
When he came to a stand and pulled her in, she came to take in his smell. Even his smell was slightly different. When he said he wanted to go home, she nodded her head. “...Alright.. Let’s go home.” She said as she came to pull away from Jason, her hand taking his gently as she moved past the other two that were in the bathroom as well.
Stepping outside as she held his hand a bit tighter, so to not lose him as they came out of that club and into the streets. She wasn’t sure what time it was. But she didn’t care. She just wanted to go home. Once they were down the street, Zel came to pull Jason into her tightly as she held onto him. “I’m sorry.” She said holding him tightly into her.
--
Jason left with Zel, once again leaving two disappointed men. They were close to the stairs leading down to the train when they stopped, he held onto her tight. “You have nothing to be sorry for.” He said softly. Tears fell from his eyes, he barely realized it. He’d been an idiot to show her this side of him. What did he think would happen? She wouldn’t understand, no one did. Hell sometimes he barely understood. Maybe he was just looking for that excuse to fuck someone else. Though if that was the case why’d he turn down those two guys? It was confusing and horrible and he was still on edge. Fighting never fed the hole inside, it just antagonized it.
--
When his tears came down, she shook her head as she cleaned off his face again. She had her own tears on her face, as she came to move him a bit more into that alley by the stairs that lead to the train. Once hidden from the world almost, Zel came to pull Jason into a kiss. Taking his hands and placing them on her sides for him to grip at her. She wouldn’t deny seeing him like this scared her. But that was the point wasn’t it? To show each other just how fucked up they were and try.
That urgent kiss slowly changed, to something a bit more meaningful, passionate and filled with desire for him. “I love you.” She said as she pulled away and looked at him. “All of you.” She said cupping his face and kissing him again.
