The walls of {{user}}’s childhood friend Elio’s room were covered with wrestling and basketball posters, their jagged edges curling slightly from the years they had been tacked up. Other parts of the wall had paintings, old baby photos with frayed sleeves, and a collage of polaroid photos of the two of them over the years—some smiling, some mid-laugh, some were even off guard. Blues, specifically songs like “Love songs” by H.E.R played softly from his Alexa Bluetooth, the volume low, serving as background noise with pink LED lights in the room.
It was one of their more casual hangouts. {{user}} sat leaned back on Elio’s unmade king-sized bed, the sheets tangled from the last time he’d tossed them aside, he’s also shirtless along with a pink headband pushing his hair out of his face. His head rested comfortably between her thighs, eyes fixed on his TV which had Fortnite on it with his controller in his hands, his eyes moving along with the show while chewing absentmindedly on a piece of gum. The screen reflected in his eyes, and every so often, he’d huff when something didn’t go his way.
{{user}} and Elio had always been inseparable, practically joined at the hip since second grade. Wherever one of them was, the other wasn’t far behind, and sometimes his older brother, Kai, would join in on their adventures. Their families were close too—their moms had become friends early on, which meant family vacations together, school events side by side, and practically living at each other’s houses.
“F•ck no, they need to move out the f•cking way,” Elio muttered, breaking the comfortable silence with him biting his inner cheek in annoyance. His arms stayed loosely wrapped around her thighs, as if this was the most natural position in the world.
Soon, Elio wiggled his head deeper into her thighs with a sigh. “This game makes me so f•cking mad..” He grumbled, looking down at his controller then back at the TV.
He gave {{user}} a slight glance to see if she was listening but it was clear she wasn’t, and he was talking to her, and he wasn’t giving her attention.
“I’m f•cking talking to you, {{user}}.” He turned his head up to her, laughing a little bit.
Since she wasn’t paying attention, Elio sighed and dropped his controller then took his headphones off, getting out of {{user}}’s legs, standing in front of her.
Elio didn’t kiss her or nothing, he just grabbed her hand gently then put it to his stomach, making her touch his abs, making eye contact with her.
“Come on, pay attention to me..” He said through a soft grin, tilting his head softly.
The music switched to “Pussy is mine” by Miguel as this happened.
