Vacation Romance One-On-One (Closed)

Brennan raised his eyebrows, unsure of where this was going, “What might this idea be?”

Jay gave her a look, leaned in an kissed her, utterly nothing romantic about it. He pulled away, scraping at his tongue and frowning at her. But now she just has to believe me. Jay still debated if kissing her was worth proving a lie, but… it be better if he didn’t wreck things with Brennan. It’d be better if no one ever knew why he got drunk at every party.

Paris giggled and leaned over him, hesitating at first, but leaning all the way down and planting her lips on his.

"You're gay." Madylin said, sitting back onto the bed, arms behind her.

Brennan smiled into the kiss, then deepened it with a moan. He wasn’t being anything close to responsible, in fact, Jay was probably already awake by now, but… Gosh Brennan loved her.

“I am not!” Jay exclaimed, frowning at her. It was like little alerts kept going off in his head, tellling him all the reasons how he f—ked this up. This is dangerous territory. “Why on earth would you say I’m gay? Just because I was too drunk to tell that Brennan was a guy last night doesn’t make me gay.” The words came out sharper than he meant them to, but gosh… if they had really found out…

"Look i've met plenty of gay guys in my life. Paris' dads being a couple. and ive met gay teenage guys. you're on the defence a little much. but dont worry, i wont tell anyone. except Paris. shes my best friend. but she wont tell anyone, especially Brennan. until youre ready." Madylin said, a genuine smile on her face.

Paris moved around, and brought one leg over him; essentially straddling him, as they kissed.

Jay turned slightly red, muttering, “I don’t know why you’re so set on me being gay…” But his secret was exposed. It was over. Jay stared at the floor. Maybe he could party and drink the embarrassment away. Maybe he could find somewhere else to stay, get a room away from Brennan.

Brennan kissed her deeply, running his hands through her soft hair that he adored so much. He quietly murmured, “Let’s not go too far, alright…”

"Didnt plan on it" Paris whispered "but i had to get a better angle." she leaned back forward and kissed him again.

"because its true. you told me yourself last night. but i can keep a secret if thats what youre worried about. im not going to do anything you dont want me to Jay. i've got your back" Madylin said, standing up and wrapping her arms around Jay.

Brennan laughed into the kiss, then deepened it. His tongue flicked at her bottom lip in silent question.

Jay stiffened at the hug. It felt so foreign. When was the last time someone hugged me like this? It took his a second to relax, then suddenly he didn’t want it to stop. Just that small comfort… He didn’t realize his was crying until a tear fell onto his hand. Jay closed his eyes and whispered, “Madylin, I’m a freak.”

(casually has tears in eyes ready to cry for Jay)
“Jay you’re not a freak. you’re a beautiful person and anyone that doesn’t agree, pardon my french, is a dumbass” madylin said into his chest, him being taller than her.

Paris granted him access and brought both of his hands to his hair, tangling her fingers in his hair.

Despite Jay crying, he smiled a little. His grip tightened slightly around Madylin, as if in fear of her disappearing as he whispered, “I go to those parties and get drunk because I want to forget about it. Because people there won’t care because they’re too drunk to look disgusted.”

“Mmmmhhhmmm,” Brennan moaned, savoring how she touched his hair like that and how they kissed. I love her…

"Jay, those people dont matter. theyre all jealous fools who dont know you. you're a human. you're allowed to make your own life choices. they cant change that. they shouldnt affect it in anyway." Madylin said, hugging him tighter, trying to reassure her.

Paris teased his hair and smiled. she loved how she felt, she loved that he felt the same way, maybe she loved him. she knew it, and she knew there was no changing that.

“You promise you’ll keep it a secret?” Jay whispered. She didn’t know how much those words meant to him. How nice it felt to be accepted. How much he wanted to be able to talk about crushes and guys and what he felt with someone.

Brennan smiled back at her, deepening their kiss. This was perfect.

Madylin smiles, “swear it on my life.”

One of Paris’ hands leave his hair and run up and down his chest and stomach, taking it all in.

“I really want a boyfriend,” Jay confessed, letting out a breath and flopping back on the bed. He’d never been able to say the words out loud before. He kept going, this time he wasn’t filtered with lies, “One time I met a guy… He didn’t love me, he just wanted to… experiment. I was too drunk stupid to see. And I just… I want something real. But how do you find someone when you’re stuck in the closet?” Jay stared at the ceiling, sighing. Maybe this was the time Madylin would go run off and gossip about it. Maybe this would be when he feels betrayal.

Brennan let out a throaty purr into their kiss, tongue dancing between them.

“come out of the closet? maybe not a bunch of people all at once, but a few at a time.” Madylin said shrugging. she plopped down on the bed beside him but sitting up still.

Paris’ tongue fought for dominance a few times but eventually gave up, hand still in his hair.

“I can’t come out of the closet, that would be absurd,” Jay replied, shifting to lay on his side and face Madylin.

Brennan continued waving his hands through Paris’ hair, but finally pulled away to say, “We really should check on Jay and Madylin.”

"No it wouldnt. its logical. its the next step." Madylin said.

Paris groaned but reluctently got up and ran her hands through her hair, trying to tame it.

“I just- people won’t like me. What would the point be if it just turns people away?” Jay said quietly, “Unless it’s a gay party or something, I don’t think it would be ‘logical’.”

Brennan stood and stretched, combing his hair with his hands and smoothing his shirt, then asked with a laugh, “Do I look somewhat presentable?”

“if they push you away for your opinions and beliefs are they really your friends?” Madylin said leaning back in her hands.

Paris snorted then shook away her thoughts. “you look like you just woke up” she said reaching in a drawer to pull out a bright coral sundress she went to the bathroom and quickly changed.

“No, but I have no one else. It’s not like you could set me up with a date or something, there’s just no where to turn.” Jay laid back on the bed, staring up at the ceiling and sighing. I’m so lost…

Brennan rolled his eyes, but frantically smoothed out his shirt more and combed his hair with his hands again when Paris disappeared to change.

Paris slipped off her shirt and slid the dress over her head and down her body. she kicked off her shorts and carried the clothes out to the hamperer and walked out to see brennan fixing his hair.
"would you please stop that." she said with a laugh.

"No, but i can work on it." Madylin promised and mentally made a note to keep her eye out.

“You told me I looked like I just woke up!” Brennan exclaimed with a laugh, coming over to her with an eye roll of his own, “Come on, I suppose we do really need to get going and make sure our friends are okay.”

“You can?” Jay knew that a dangerous amount of hope and want filled his eyes, but he couldn’t shut it away. He studied her face for any hint of betrayal or trickery, but couldn’t find any.

"Yeeeeessss but you look cute like that though" Paris said with a small giggle. "okay… dad"

"Of course. youre my friend, and i watch out for my friends." Madylin replied.

Brennan rolled his eyes at Paris, stealing her for a kiss on the cheek and tugging her out the apartment door.

Jay couldn’t stop the small smile that appeared on his face as he said, “Thank you, Madylin. Honestly, thank you.”

Paris chuckled and grabbed her phone and keys on the way out and locked the door behind her. As they walked down the hallway she intertwined her fingers with Brennans.

"Girl ive always got your back. thats what i do." Madylin said with a toothy smile.

Brennan smiled, taking them back to his room. He knocked on the door before he was going to open it, just to give them a warning.

Jay startled a little when the door was knocked on, quickly sitting up and chewing his lip.

Paris followed Brennan in and sat down on the other, unoccupied bed. she kicked her flip flops off and crossed her legs.

"Hey sunshines. sleep well?" Madylin asked.

“Yeah,” Brennan replied quietly, not daring glance at Jay. He instead looked to Paris, just for some kind of reassurance.

Jay took a breath, then drew up that mask he always wore and made jesting tone, “So I heard I was a good kisser last night, ey, Brennan?” He forced a laughed and a grin, “I suppose I should be more careful about what I drink next time, I must’ve been really out if it.”

Brennan let out a sigh of relief. He didn’t remember what happened. But quickly a hard expression appeared on his face, “I don’t want you ever drinking again. Never.”

"i second that" Madylin piped up.

Paris gave a small nod of agreement and smiled. "we all make mistakes and we learn from them."
(sorry for the one liners. my head hurts)

(Totally fine, I have those days too)
“Well…” Jay sighed. He’d just have to be more sneaky about it…
“No, Jay. Never again, I can see that look in your eyes. You’re turning into an alcoholic, Jay. I don’t want you even near alcohol,” Brennan said sharply, folding his arms over his chest.
“Well, it looks like someone cares for me a bit too much, maybe I am a really good kisser,” Jay forced the jest, laughing along with it. Just pretend it’s all a joke to you…

Madylin looked back at Jay with a look that read 'knock it off before i knock you in the face'. Paris looked up at Brennan and spoke, "honestly i think Brennans probably the better kisser. but thats just me." Paris laughed and hoped it would lighten the mood a little bit.
