Action

Cuatro

Corpse stood in the studio, watching the actress who played Poki swipe a card through a machine. It beeped, telling her that she was unsuccessful.

He wore a black space suite without pockets, so Corpse held his hands infront of him as he watched the man who played Jack walk in the room, beginning to say his lines. There were mulitple cameras on them and Jax sat in a chair behind a tv, watching intently.

Corpse silently ran through his lines in his head, a subtle heat rushing through his stomach as he thought about his own scene. He looked over at Sykunno, who was sitting in his production chair, reading over the lines. He wondered what was going through his head.

"Okay scene!" Jax yelled, and the cameras moved out of the small set that was suppoed to be Admin. "Corpse, Sykunno, you're up."

Corpse and Sykunno met eyes. Sykunno was blushing, and Corpse smiled. He always thought that Sykunno was cute. They were lead into the scene that resembled reactor and Sykunno went over to a task.

Corpse was taken back by the attention to detail, seeing all the different tasks in reactor. He was told to wait out in the hallway, just outside the door to the set.

"Aaaaand action!" Jax shouted. Corpse waited, watching Jax for his cue to enter.

The man moved his hand up and Corpse stepped forward, walking into reactor slowly and quietly, trying to ignore the camera to his left, the one at his feet, and the one behind him. He held his hands out and grabbed Sykunnos waist, making the man jump.

He smiled as Sykunno let out a breath and turned around, his hand over his heart. "Corpse! You scared me!" He laughed, putting his hands on Corpses shoulders.

Thats when it hit him. He stared down into Sykunnos eyes, willing himself to lift his hand and tuck his fingers under the mans chin, but he was frozen.

He was going to kiss Sykunno, and he was scared.

"Julio?" Sykunno whispered, bringing Corpse back to life.

"Sorry." Corpse muttered.

"Thats okay." Jax called. "Let's start from the top."

Corpse walked backwards out of the set. His heart was racing and he took deep breaths. Jax called action and Corpse waited for the signal. He got it, walked into the room and scared Sykunno again.

"Corpse! You scared me!"

"I'm sorry, baby." Corpse purred, his stomach doing flips as his eyes bore into Sykunnos, causing the other man to turn a light pink. He tucked his fingers under Sykunnos chin and leaned forward, locking his lips with Sykunnos.

Corpse wasn't sure if he was being dramatic or not, but he could have swore he felt flames leaping off Sykunnos lips and onto his own. He kept his mouth sealed shut, as he pulled back, his eyes searching Sykunnos involuntarily.

Sykunno looked flustered, his hands still on Corpses shoulders and his face an even deeper red. They stood there, staring at eachother. Then Sykunno burst out laughing.

There was a sigh from Jax and Corpse remembered that he was around other people. "I'm sorry!" Sykunno said dropping his hands from Corpses shoulders. "He's just so good at acting!"

Corpse flushed. I wasn't acting. "I forgot my lines." He lied walking back out to the hallway.

"Should we take it from the top?" Jax asked another producer.

She tapped her chin. "No. Isn't there an angle change right after the kiss?"

Another producer shouted a confirmation.

"Okay let's take it from the kiss."

Corpse groaned internally, but found that he was eager to press his lips against Sykunnos again, as he walked back over to man.

Sykunno cleared his throat, placing his hands on Corpses shoulders again. Corpse replaced his own hand and he leaned down pressing his lips against Sykunnos.

His head was screaming and his lips were burning as he listened to Jax yell action. This time, as Corpse pulled away, he smiled. "How are your tasks going?"

Sykunno patted his shoulders and turned around, pressing one last button on the numerical keypad. "Pretty well. Yours?"

Corpse shrugged. "Pretty well too, I guess." Sykunno grabbed his hand and lead Corpse out of reactor.

Corpse tried not to blush as he was dragged through a hallway, being followed by cameras, by his bestfriend. "Poki says that we will be approaching another planet soon."

Corpse hummed. Sykunno stopping at a door that was supposed to lead into storage.

"And cut!" Jax called out ending their scene. "That was perfect. One more time from the top!"

Almost 6 hours later, Corpse was in his car, his eyepatch on tight and his muscles aching. He hummed to the music playing from his aux as he tried not to think about how many times he had been forced to say the same things over and over again. His lips still tingled a bit and he reached up and ran his fingers over them.

The chances that his lips were tingly because he had kissed Sykunno were very high, but he refused to believe that was the reason.

He adored Sykunno, yes, but crushed on him was a little far. He decided that maybe his lips tingled because it was his first kiss in a while.

He parked infront of his building and snuck up to his apartment, immediately opening Twitter.

Sykunno had posted some behind the scenes tweets and Corpse checked closely to make sure he wasn't in any of the images. Even though Sykunnos followers demanded to see the actor that was gonna play their favorite streamer.

He replied to the tweet, Sykunno! Congratulations man. Imagine being a whole star!

He clicked out of Twitter and called Karl.

"Hello?" The man's voice drifted through the speaker.

"Hi." Corpse puffed. "What are you doing right now?"

"I just finished making dinner." Karl said and the clashing of dishes confirmed his statement.

"I have to ask you a question."

"Shoot."

"Did it ever feel like fire when you kissed Sapnap?"

The line went quiet. "Uh. I mean at one point it felt exhilarating... But fire? No, it was more like lava running down wherever he touched me."

"What the honk are you talking about?" Sapnaps voice made its way to the phone.

"Corpse is asking about... Feelings? Why are you asking me this Corpse?"

Corpse furrowed his eyebrows. "Honestly, I think I'm only asking because I always read it in books but I haven't experienced it."

Karl hummed. "Okay. Well, yea, I guess when you meet the right person their touch can feel like so much more than just their touch."

Corpse smiled. "Thats nice. I'll talk to you later?"

"Sure thing."

The call went dead and Corpse let out a puff of air. He was over thinking it. Sykunno wasn't the one, he couldn't be.

Sykunno was straight.
