Elias never understood why a single glance from Kieran could silence an entire room. Tall, broad-shouldered, and always leaning somewhere like he owned gravity itself Kieran had that territorial energy that made people move aside without being told.
And unfortunately… he had eyes only for Elias.
Tonight was supposed to be simple. A college festival, music so loud the floor shook, and Elias laughing with his friends. But then, he felt it that familiar, heavy stare burning holes into his back.
He turned.
Kieran stood by the entrance, jaw clenched, that dangerous calm on his face.
He looked like a storm waiting for someone stupid enough to walk into it.
Elias sighed. "I'm literally just talking, chill," he muttered under his breath.
But Kieran began walking toward him anyway.
The crowd parted instinctively.
"Who's that?" one of Elias's friends whispered.
"The guy who acts like Elias belongs to him," another said.
Elias groaned.
Kieran stopped right beside him, voice low and possessive, "You didn't answer my texts."
"I was busy," Elias said, lifting his chin defiantly.
"Too busy to reply?" Kieran stepped closer. "Or too busy letting people touch your arm like that guy did?"
Elias blinked. "Oh my god, that was literally a pat-"
"I don't care what it was." Kieran's fingers curled softly, like he was stopping himself from grabbing Elias on the spot. "I don't like people touching what's mine."
Elias's breath caught.
Every damn time.
"Kieran," he whispered, trying not to blush, "we're not… officially anything."
A muscle jumped in Kieran's jaw.
He leaned in, lips almost touching Elias's ear.
"Say that again," he whispered, voice rough. "And I swear I'll drag you out of this crowd and remind you exactly why you are."
Elias's knees almost buckled.
But he refused to give in. "You can't just appear and act like you own me."
"Can't I?" Kieran murmured. "Because you act like you're running away from something you already feel."
Elias froze.
Kieran stepped back just enough to look him in the eyes. "Tell me you don't want me."
Elias opened his mouth
but someone bumped into him, pushing him slightly toward Kieran.
Kieran reacted instantly, an arm wrapping around Elias's waist, pulling him tight against his chest.
"Watch where you're going," he growled at the stranger.
Elias's heartbeat thundered. "Kieran… you're making a scene."
"I'll make a bigger one if anyone else touches you."
Elias swallowed hard. "You're impossible."
"And you're mine."
Before Elias could protest, Kieran took his wrist warm, firm, unyielding and led him out to the quiet stairwell behind the venue. The moment the door closed, Kieran pinned Elias gently against the wall, hands caging him in.
"Why do you keep running from me?" Kieran asked softly.
"Because…" Elias whispered, "you're intense."
"I'm intense because I want you." Kieran leaned closer, breath fanning Elias's lips. "And because you want me too."
Elias felt his resolve cracking. "You're too possessive."
"I'm possessive because I care," Kieran said. "Because losing you would destroy me."
Those words hit something deep.
Elias had tried so hard to pretend he didn't crave the attention, the jealousy, the way Kieran watched him with eyes that said he'd burn the world for him.
Elias's voice shook. "You're not going to let me go, are you?"
Kieran touched Elias's face gently a contrast to everything else about him. "Not unless you ask me to."
The honesty in his voice melted Elias completely.
"So," Kieran whispered, "tell me. Do you want me to stop?"
Silence.
The world outside kept dancing and shouting, but here… everything stilled.
Finally, Elias grabbed the front of Kieran's shirt and pulled him down into a kiss.
It wasn't soft.
It was desperate, claiming, angry, relieved everything they'd held back for months.
Kieran kissed him like he'd been starving.
[ the kiss deeper now, tongue thrusting in with a hunger that stole Elias's air. Strong hands gripped Elias's hips .... -- and everything after that becomes too hot for this platform. Patreon has it all]

When they finally broke apart, Elias breathed, "I hate how you always get your way."
Kieran smirked, resting his forehead against Elias's. "And I love how you pretend you don't want it."
Elias shoved him lightly, but Kieran only tightened his arms, pulling him against his chest.
"So," Elias muttered, cheeks burning, "this means we're… actually something now?"
Kieran's voice dropped to that deep, heart-melting tone. "We've been something from the moment you first glared at me in class."
Elias laughed despite himself.
Kieran pressed a soft kiss to his temple. "I'm yours. And you're mine. Officially."
Elias met his eyes, warmth spreading through him. "Yeah… I think I like that."
Kieran's grin was devastating. "Good. Because I plan on keeping you."
And with Elias leaning into his arms willingly this time the night suddenly felt perfect.
