Work Text:
cody was left alone to bleed. left in the rain, back pressed against his bus, shirt torn to shreds, and face covered in blood, still dripping down his cheeks and falling onto his chest.
after a moment, he stands up, light headed, and walks his way to the door they came out of. he goes to open it, but before he can it swings open the opposite direction. he flinches, because he half expects that he's going to get beat up even more, but when he is able to focus in his body relaxes. “seth? are you okay?” he grabs the others arm, looking at a small brusie that is forming, the rest of his body looking relatively unscathed.
“are you kidding me? do you know what you look like right now?” he pushes codys hand off his arm, moving to grab the shorter haireds shoulders. “what did he do to you?”
he shrugs. “a lot, I'm pretty light headed.”
“I can tell.. let's go in your bus, yeah?”
cody sighs, but let's seth guide him to his bus, and when he gets in and looks in the mirror, he suddenly sees the problem. obviously he knew he was bleeding, and that it was pretty bad, but not *this* bad. he mutters a small “damn.” to himself.
seth watches him intently, not really in any rush to help him clean his wounds up, clearly. “I've never seen you bleed this bad before.”
he ghosts his hand over the cut on his head. “i've bled worse, just wasn't here. and it's been a few years.”
“it's kind of a nice look.” his arms are crossed over his chest. “with the torn shirt, and the wet hair and all.”
“is this really the time to be finding me attractive?”
“I feel like it's always the time.” he smirks. “I know you don't mind that you're bleeding, you don't have to lie to me.”
he sighs. “I mean, you're right but I probably should clean it up before I leave for the night.” he looks back to seth, and he feels his brain short circuit for a moment. it could definitely be the blood loss, it could also be the fact he most likely has a concussion from all the times his head was hit tonight.
yet still, he looks at seth and he looks at his hair, messy and slightly wet. he had taken it down from earlier in the night, and he was wearing a form fitting tshirt, changed out of his extravagent clothes as he was sure he was planning on leaving soon. and he looks at his pretty brown eyes, and he looks at his lips and remembers the small little tooth gap hiding behind them. and he wants to ask seth to do something for him, it's crazy, but it's all he wants right now. it's what he wants from him.
so, he leans forward and he captures his lips with his. he kisses him, and runs his hand up to tuck seth's long hair behind his ear. when he pulls away to breathe, he looks into those eyes once more.
and he knows seth knows what he wants from that, so he does it.
seth kisses his cheek, some of his blood transferring to his lips. and then he kisses up by his ear, and it's when seth finally, *finally* licks at the blood that's stained the side of his face that he let's himself melt into the sensation.
he felt crazy for wanting this, wanting seth to clean the blood off him this way, but it felt good. he felt euphoric.
and he thinks about what it would be like to do this back to seth, and he feels his face warm at the thought. and the more he thinks about it, the more he wonders if seth would let him do that, he can't help but lose himself in the fantasy. “seth…”
he hums, backing away.
cody doesn't know why, but he grabs at seths hair and pulls hard, bringing him closer to his face. it feels like when they first saw each other again after so many years. a hateful type of lust, that was now replaced with genuinity and love. “would you ever bleed for me?”
seth takes a shaky breath, his eyes soft. “yes.”
he let's go of his hair and seth licks at the blood still staining his face, going in to kiss him and he's able to taste his own blood on the others tongue.
he pushes the longer haired back onto the couch of the bus, climbing on top of him and tilting his chin up to look him in the eyes. “you're making me feel a lot better… I was so upset with myself for letting him do that to me.” he kisses seth once more.
“I'll make sure I kick his ass for you while you rest for a while, and when you come back you can have him.” he wipes his finger across the blondes forehead and tastes the blood on his finger. “I might have to thank him for this, actually.” he grabs up at cody's face, pulling him down for a deep kiss, slipping his tongue in his mouth.
he pulls back, his breath hot on seth's lips. “I don't need to rest. I'm fine.”
“medical might have something different to say about that.” he presses his thumb gently onto codys cheek. “I don't think you care about that, though.”
cody snickers. “you know me well.”
“I'm the same, it's not hard to know.” he grins. “think we might be the most stubborn people we know.”
“that's the truth.” he kisses at seths neck, then backing away and getting up. “maybe we should clean me up a bit more before we go much further.” he shrugs his ripped and wet shirt off his shoulders.
seth whines, but stands up anyway and goes over to grab a washcloth from under the sink, wetting it down and waiting for cody to sit down at the table in front of them.
cody states into seths eyes as he pats the blood spots that were left on his forehead. he smiles the whole time, because he loves looking at him. and he loves that he has the luxury of even getting to look at him.
he only snaps out of his trance when seth licks up his chest to his neck. he shivers. “hey..” he licks his ear, then patting the washcloth to the side of his face. he runs his thumb over codys bottom lip. cody grabs his arm. “princess..”
seths breath hitches. “I love when you call me that..”
“I know. please, just finish washing my face and I promise I'll spoil you all you want, okay? you're getting me too worked up.” he reaches his hand up to carress his face.
he nods, continuing to clean codys face off and breathing ever so slightly uneven, obviously holding back from doing more.
when he finishes cleaning cody up, he practically drags cody to the small bed in the back of bus, laying down and motioning for him.
cody finally gives in, laughing lightly and climbing back ontop of him, kissing at his neck again. he breathes softly against it. “you really would bleed for me?”
“one hundred times over.” he grinds his hips up against codys, holding a moan against his tongue. “I'd even let you make me bleed.” he whispers.
the blonde hums lowly at that, grinding his own hips down. “you can't say things like that to me..”
“why not?” cody can feel his grin against the skin of his neck. “getting you too worked up?” seth traces his finger along codys collarbones.
he shifts his body to allow him to grind against seth better, grunting lowly. “maybe.. just don't say I can do that kind of thing and not expect it to happen, beautiful.” he kisses hard against his neck, clearly trying to leave a hickey.
seth whines, moving his hips in rhythm with the man on top of him. “I love you.”
cody freezes for a moment. seth hasn't ever said that to him before, at least in a way where he means it. it makes his heart flutter, and makes his mind fog even more than it already was.
he pulls at seths hair again, lifting him up to kiss his lips hard, before speaking softly against his kiss stained lips. “I've waited my whole life for you to say that.” he grazes his teeth against the nape of seths neck, then continuing to grind against him and sing him praises and girly pet names that he loves so much.
and it's nice. and he forgets about why he even started bleeding for a second. and he silently thanks the man who did it to him so he could experience what he's experiencing now. and he silently thanks himself for being bold enough to ask for it.
and he speaks again, through breathy moans and starry eyes, “I love you too."
