Reed's Apartment

"You were my everything."

Reed grinned deviously, devil horns popping out of his hair as he heard Alan's stuttered moan. This was it! This was the chance he'd been waiting for! He'll be able to finally see Alan's cute body like God intended! His hand still hurt, duh, but he wasn't going to give up this opportunity! Not even if he had one eye shot off!
The band director moved his lips away from Alan's neck when he was sure a mark was left. There, that ought to stop most of the students from bothering him. He leaned back to observe the scientist's face, his hands sinking back down to go back up, only this time daring to sneak under the shirt.

Cheeks warm and eyes closed due to shame, the physicist looked almost nothing like his usual calm, collected self. He moaned quietly, biting his lip in an attempt to quiet his noises, but that tactic quickly failed. Deciding to simply let himself be spoiled, he let out a small groan, jumping and gasping when he felt hands crawl under his shirt. Mind entrapped by lust, he pressed himself closer to Reed and slowly opened his eyes to gaze up at Reed, green bedroom eyes hooded and clouded. "Y-you moved your mouth away," he whispered, stopping as if afraid to ask for him to put it back.

"The numbers never lie."

"You were my everything."

The musician blinked when he heard Alan, his mouth became dry when he saw the desire in those once innocent eyes. Ah... He didn't really expect to get this far! He was expecting Alan to slap him or something! Don't get him wrong, he was ecstatic to be in a position like this, but now that he was actually this far he realized he had no idea how to do this right! He'd had sex before, of course, but not with a guy! He tried to watch porn or something, but always chickened out before it could start. Where did he even put it? Well, uh... It couldn't be too hard, right? He knew the basics of the basics from days of hearing male students joke about it. It was right - One hand slid down from playing with Alan's chest to submerge itself into his pants from the backside - there, right?

The feeling of Reed's hand inside of Alan's pants finally snapped him back to reality, and the younger male shoved Reed away, jumping off the bed and hold his shirt, trying to figure out if anything was unbuttoned. "H-hey! I told you no, Reed!" Alan backed away from the bed, then turned his back on the man to hide his blush. "God, you're such a little horndog. Keep it in your damn pants!" His voice cracked near the end, and he wouldn't dare let Reed see his shame. How could he let things get this far? He'd promised himself that they wouldn't do anything until he was certain that he was doing things right, but it was so hard to do anything when Reed was so handsy!

"You were my everything."

"Wha- What was I supposed to do?" Reed demanded while sitting up. "You were all over me with your bedroom eyes and talking to me about how you liked being kissed like that!" He put his (good) hand on his face and groaned. Great, interrupted during a crucial moment for his body. He'd have to watch some Catholic television to get back to normal now.

"I can't help myself when you do stuff like that! You've got to be the adult and stop me!" he cried before striding out of the room, grabbing his coat and starting to pull it on. It was late, but he'd sooner go home in the dark than stay the night here and wind up doing something he knew he'd regret.

"What makes you think I can help myself when you're mewling at me like that?" Reed fired back. He sighed and ran his good hand through his damp hair as Alan pulled his clothes on. Well that was a great way to ruin the mood. And to think - He was so close! Maybe it was for the best. After all, he didn't know the first thing about... that. He'd have to find some way to learn about it, but he couldn't bring himself to look at that on the Internet! Maybe...
"Hey, you need a ride home?" he called out then looked at his bandaged hand. It would hurt to grip the wheel, but he wouldn't be completely useless, and Alan's home was close enough.

"It's fine, I prefer to walk," he answered quickly. "I'm overheated, the cold'll do me good. Bye, Reed." Alan didn't look back once as he rushed out of the bedroom and into the living room to put his shoes and coat on. He had to get out of there as soon as possible, before he was tempted to ask Reed to finish the job, and that was one thing he would never do. It was bad enough what his professor had said to him, he couldn't bear to deal with all of that again coming from someone he genuinely loved. It was too much, far too much. He'd gone years without needing it. He could go years further still, and if he lost Reed because of it, so be it.

"You were my everything."

Tch, overheated. That was just a fancy term for saying that he was turned on. Reed was just about to call Alan out on it when he left in the blink of an eye. The band director pursed his lips then crossed his arms and sulked in his bed. He couldn't even play any music or compose anything with his hand like this. That wouldn't stop him from going to school, though, whether he wanted to or not. His students needed him, and he needed to talk to a certain someone.
Whether he wanted to or not.

Alan buttoned his coat as he approached the door, glancing back to the bedroom door that was slightly ajar. He could still see Reed a little, just laying there and pouting on the bed. For a split second, the scene changed in his mind, and he felt like Red Riding Hood in the woods, running away from the Big Bad Wolf. His red cloak was heavy on his shoulders, hood falling down to expose his dark colored hair and green, inquisitive eyes unable to look away from the wolf that lay in the green grass, his white ears twitching in irritation at being deprived on a tasty meal. He swallowed hard, his desire to be devoured by the handsome and smooth-talking monster growing by the second. He reached one hand out, the white skin a stark difference to the shadows he'd just emerged from, when suddenly the scene returned to normal.
The scientist brought his hand back to his torso, smoothing down the black coat before hastily opening the door and rushing out. "What the hell was that?!" he murmured incredulously to himself. What was with this sudden fantasy of being Red Riding Hood to Reed's Big Bad Wolf? He could understand why his mind would create the scenario, based on their current situation, but still! What was wrong with him? He could never tell Reed what his mind had made him see, he had to keep that a secret!
Walking out of the building, Alan walked briskly down the street, finding himself in front of a small department store. He wouldn't dare tell Reed, but it wouldn't hurt to get a new coat. He didn't look terrible in red.

The drive took twice, maybe three times, as long as it normally would have to get from the school to here. For a moment the rain let up and Reed thought that'd be the end of it for the day, but it came back in full swing. At least he was able to get home.
Quickly getting Alan into his apartment, Reed closed the door and strode across the room to get to his bathroom. One second later he came out and handed Alan a towel. "You want to change into some of my clothes and warm up first?" he asked, occasionally looking at the bag the scientist tried so hard to hide. It was also the reason he was soaking wet. Just what was in it that was so important??

"The science of it all is simple."

He shook his head, unfolding the towel and placing it over his head, trying to make himself feel less cold. Alan peeked up at Reed, kicking his shoes off and shuffling over to Reed, still clutching the bag to his body. He straightened, closing his eyes to take a deep breath, then opening them as he let it out. "Here," he murmured, holding out the bag. In the bag was a box, a very simple cardboard box that was decently heavy. Alan looked away as he felt his cheeks warm, squeezing his eyes shut after a thought passed through his mind. What if Reed didn't like it? He'd seen it in the window and figured that it was perfect for the musician. But what if he didn't like it?!
"It's nonrefundable, so if you don't like it, you should just give it to one of your students or something stupid like that!" he said a little harshly, although if Reed knew Alan at all, it would've been easy to tell that he was just nervous.

"You were my everything."

Reed blinked when the bag was presented to him. He took it, pausing a moment when it turned out to be heavier than he thought. What was in this? No, that wasn't the question he should be asking. "You got this for me?" he asked while looking at the bag. He couldn't help but feel touched, he was sure it was obvious by how shiny his eyes were. This brat ran through the cold rain to get him something!
The band director was just about to open it when he heard Alan's sudden snap. What? Oh, he was worried. It was cute... in that jerkish, brat way. Smirking, Reed reached out to ruffle the scientist's damp hair. "I don't think I couldn't like anything you'd get me." he said honestly then opened the box.

"Your music will live on."

"Just open the damn thing, you flirt!"
Inside the box was a small piano, clearly made of a metal of some sort, and not just a piano. The top was peaked up a little, and had Reed lifted it further, he would've heard a twinkling rendition of Beethoven's Pathetique Sonata, Mvt. 2. The music box was very old and had been repaired time and time again over the years, but it was still very beautiful and Alan had pinned it for Reed the second he saw it. Speaking of, the young scientist still wouldn't look at Reed, blushing darker at the ruffle of his hair and crossing his arms. However, he did glance a little at Reed after he opened the box to see his reaction, sincerely hoping that he liked the box.

A piano? Reed tilted it around to look at it from different angles. How cute! It was a miniature grand piano! It even had one of those huge lids! When the band director poked at the lid, he nearly dropped it when he heard the music play. As he recognized the tune, he leaned over the toy again and gave it a mesmerized stare. Wow, it was one of those old music boxes!
"This is incredible." he breathed as the song faded away. He lowered it and smiled brightly down at Alan. "This is amazing, Al! I love it!" He wrapped one arm around the scientist's shoulders and pulled him into a close hug. It was the perfect gift, he couldn't be happier!
