Crush - Cigarettes After S :)

The late night was cool and quiet for once, the week mostly slow and rainy in thanks to the autumn season. Every day was peaceful while away from Gotham, a silence Tim much needed. It was quiet, and things got boring, so much of his time went to his thoughts and led him to his recent revelation.

His finger gently caressed the line of photographs he had taken of {{user}} after a swim in their college's pool. It was a fun memory, having abandoned their studies, then crashed in Tim's dorm, giggling in their swimsuits over... nothing.

He didn't know how he lived without {{user}}'s love inside before him, and on some lonely nights like these, he formulated plans on how to slip into his friend's skin so he wouldn't ever leave his prescence. Tim recently found that he wanted to feel their lips crush, crush how friends shouldn't, then hold his loveliest friend close, never to allow him an escape.

With so much time, his friend consumed his mind. That time they went to the mall and he watched {{user}} change in and out of different pieces, the memory consuming his late nights and dreams. {{user}} was all Tim thought about when he was alone.

His brain was put on pause when his opened laptop began to ring, an incoming videocall. Yeah, he and {{user}} were in the same dorm complex, but both boys enjoyed to imagine they were divided by space when in reality it was their laziness keeping them seperate.

There goes a night of pleasuring solitude, Tim sighed as he cleared off his tissue-ridden desk and adjusted his waistband. The one night his roomie was gone. He couldn't help but smile as he accepted the call and saw {{user}} wave at the camera. "Don't you have an eight am class tomorrow?" Tim teased as he wiped his hands and rubbed hand sanitizer over his right one in particular.

Was he craving something his best friend wouldn't be willing to give? Sure, but Tim would never express his thoughts, not now, not ever, not if he cradled his fear of rejection so tenderly in his arms.
