"I'm all bandaid. He wants me and I want him and Rodney doesn't want any of that and what does that leave me. Why should I wait? He was with me from the start." He said to the bar, turning his head back up and lifting it just enough to take another drink.
"Why am I punished." He looked at them both for answers. "What happened to the other person? Noah still bang him?"

"No," Noah said, a little indignantly, and then more calmly, "I don't think she'll ever forgive me for being a jerk about it, and even if she did I wouldn't be trying to sleep with her, that's over now and I'm with Al." He fidgeted a little and sipped his drink, then offered, "Is it really ... supposed to be a punishment? I mean, for you anyway, maybe it's only that he's with the, the other guy and, um. but if he already went with you again ... I don't know."

Al actually looked relieved by that answer, though he wouldn't ever be mad at Noah if he did. At the end of the day, they belong to each other and that is what matters. "You weren't a jerk about it, I don't think." He now had a hand patting Melvin and the other on Noah's knee, trying to comfort all the people.
"Have you told him how you feel?" He offered curiously.

He liked head pats, and closed his eyes a moment to just let Al continue like a very content dog.
Melvin groaned at the thought of it all. "Yeah he said he loved me. I said I loved him. He said it's Rodney. Rodney doesn't like me because I ******** Lawr." Reaching up, he rubbed his eyes to try to get the fuzziness out of his focus before taking another drink and finishing his glass. He sadly rolled the ice cubes inside of it.
"How can I not. He talks so sexy....and he's so light on you....and that endurance. Just....on and on and on." Melvin was not stopping.
He laid his cheek on the bar. "I want to hold him.....hear him......my bed sucks."

Noah ducked his head a little. He didn't want to have the argument about whether he'd been a jerk, because he had been, but Al probably wouldn't let him say so, and anyway this was really Melvin's conversation, so he let it drop.
Except that Melvin's conversation was turning out to be pretty uncomfortable too. "Why did he leave you if he still loves you?" he asked, rather than asking about the sex stuff. It was still an awkward question, but, well.

Al was curious about the sex stuff more than Noah was. "On and on and on?... Don't you guys get like... chapped?"

Melvin just stared at Al. "No. You switch it up....they also make stuff. We do it all the time." And then he paused, staring out at him and then frowned deeply as he let his head drop, cheek back on the bar. "We USED to." Not even looking at the glass, he felt for it and shoved it in Al's direction.
Sighing, he looked at Noah. "I told you. It's Rodney. Rodney doesn't want anyone else near him so now I can't have him. Even when I was with him. I should a never let him in the house. ******** in a tent. I never got to do that. Lawr doesn't like camping." He continued to keep trying to push the glass at Al.
"I want more head pats.......and whiskey........and Lawr.........and my house............and a sandwich....."

Did that mean that Lawr preferred Rodney, that he followed Rodney's rules about who he could have sex with? But he'd broken those rules. Noah wasn't sure what to say. He had no idea what the truth about Lawr's behavior was, and it was probably more complicated than he knew. "Camping's nice," he said, because that was a sort of neutral thing to say.
He glanced over at Al, his eyebrows furrowed with confused concern. "Um. Should I go get a sandwich?"

Al sighed loudly and got the hint, taking the glass. He gave Noah's knee a reassuring pat, "Nah, I got this, just keep him awake."
He smiled at Melvin, "What kind of sandwich?"

Melvin reached out and grabbed Al's wrist and stared at him. "You can't leave me too."

"I can go get it," Noah offered again, uncertainly.

Al slowly raised his other hand to offer Noah the glass. He cautiously went to sit back down and resume petting Melvin as was asked of him. "I... I wont?.."

His grip weakened, but now was more like a couple fingers holding onto his sleeve as he rested his head back down and stared out.
"Lawr said Rodney is hot and likes his body. Maybe I'm not workin out enough. I swim a lot. Maybe I don't have enough muscles..." He rolled his head into the petting as he thought. ".....maybe Rodney is bigger......."
He looked over at Al. "Am I hot?"

Noah headed back to the kitchen to get out a sandwich and make a drink. He'd been in the bar often enough that he knew the locations of things and some drink recipes. He thought Melvin had been drinking whiskey; he added more ice and less liquor to the glass. If Melvin asked, he could claim incompetence, or something.
He brought back the plate and glass and put them down in front of Melvin.

"What about personality?" Al asked trying not to think too hard about the situation he'd apparently been roped into. A situation that somehow got worse and he stumbled over the question. "Uh... hot is kind of subjective?..." He looked at Noah with such pleading eyes.
