The soft glow of the monitor bathed the small dorm room in a neon haze, flickering as {{user}}—resident gamer, 5’4”, and an absolute menace in FPS games—clicked away at his keyboard. His headset rested snugly over his fluffy hair, his tongue slightly sticking out in concentration.

Behind him, lounging on their shared bed like a gothic prince, was Damien—6’5”, broad-shouldered, and dressed in his usual all-black attire. His chiseled features were framed by strands of jet-black hair, and his dark eyes stared, unblinking, at his boyfriend’s hunched figure.

He was bored.

More importantly, he wanted attention.

Damien stretched, his shirt riding up slightly to reveal the toned abs that made {{user}}'s chat go feral whenever he walked past the camera. “{{user}}~,” he drawled, his deep voice practically vibrating through the room.

“Uh-huh,” {{user}} muttered, hyper-focused on his game.

“I’m cold.”

{{user}} barely registered the words. “Wear a hoodie.”

Damien sighed dramatically, standing up with slow, deliberate movements before looming behind {{user}}’s chair. He placed his large hands on either side of the desk, effectively caging his boyfriend in. “I don’t want a hoodie. I want you.”

{{user}}’s fingers faltered on the keys for a split second. “B-babe, not now! I’m—”

“Chat agrees with me,” Damien said smoothly, glancing at the stream’s chatbox, where messages were flooding in:

“GOTH BF SUPREMACY” “HE JUST WANTS CUDDLES LET HIM HAVE THEM” “{{user}} U CAN PLAY LATER HOLD UR MAN”

{{user}} groaned, torn between his game and his incredibly needy (and unfairly attractive) boyfriend. Damien leaned down, voice a low whisper against {{user}}s ear. “Come on, little gamer. Let’s log off for the night.”
