A/N: NSFW warning woop-

A few weeks passed and Gilbert treated Matthew to a few more of his "dates". Going and seeing a movie, getting dinner at a nice place, just having him over to chat. They were small things for sure. But Matthew would be lying if he didn't admit he thought it was sweet of Gilbert to do all of those things. Nobody had really done sweet romantic things for him before. But it wasn't like things were getting serious. They stayed at the same level, and Matthew was sure they would always be that way. There was this small romantic feeling, but there wasn't any lust. At least on Matthew's end, he wasn't feeling any right now. Sure he had butterflies and his face always felt warm, but he felt like that was more compassion.

But as of yesterday afternoon, work had become a bit overwhelming. And Matthew decided to open a lot earlier today of all days, for the good business. He had gotten up bright and early to open his shop on the one day of the year he got the best business. Valentine's Day. Matthew had been dealing with a rush all day. He didn't even have a lunch break, his father had sent him down in the morning with food to eat throughout the day. So when the day finally ended, Matthew was very relieved as he closed the shop very late. It was nine when he finally shut the doors. His feet hurt, his eyes were barely open, and he was so very ready to go to bed.

Matthew was climbing up his stairs, rubbing the back of his neck, when he heard a door open. At first he thought Francis had opened their door but when he reached the top he saw red lights coming from the door across from his. Matthew looked over to see Gilbert's door wide open, only a few of his lamps turned on, but the bulbs in them deep red. Matthew hated to snoop, but he was... investigating. Matthew slowly walked into the flat and looked around, but when he looked down the hall, he saw some flower petals on the floor. A blush crept onto Matthew's cheeks as he shut the door and started walking to where he noticed the mess.

A smirk grew. Matthew got it. If it were any other day, Gilbert would have been upset by the flowers on his floor. Matthew slowly opened the bedroom door, looking inside. There was nothing. Just some lit candles. Suddenly someone grabbed him from behind, Matthew yelled a bit before laughing as Gilbert kissed his neck over and over. Matthew quickly wiggled loose and looked back at him. "What is this?" He asked through deep breaths.

Gilbert grabbed Matthew's hand and slowly led him into the bedroom, sitting down with him on the bed. "You've worked so hard all day.. I thought I would give you a reason to take the day off tomorrow, hm?" Matthew blushed but nodded, reaching up and putting his hand on the side of Gilbert's face, caressing his cheek with his thumb.

The two of them locked lips, starting off slow and gentle. Matthew wasn't new to the game, he had done things like this once or twice before. It was really no big deal for him to do these things as long as proper protection was used. Or he would let Gilbert do what he wanted with what he had.

Although they soon reach a bit of an issue. "Where do you keep your condoms..?" Matthew asked through his heavy breathing. The albino stopped undoing his jeans and went a bit pale. Matthew stared Gilbert down for a moment before groaning and flopping back onto the pillows. "Gimme a sec..." he muttered and took out his phone, looking at a calendar for a moment before huffing. "Well.. you definitely picked a bad moment to romance me but.. I guess if you pull out it'll probably be fine.."

Gilbert was a little silent before nodding and taking a deep breath. "Yeah, yeah, I can do that!" Gilbert quickly said as he got right back into undressing himself and Matthew followed suit, stripping off his jeans and throwing them off to the side.

At the end of it all, Matthew was laying with his back turned to Gilbert, a little anger in his furrowed brows. The albino was messing with his hands. "I'm sorry, Matthew.. I didn't realise! I swear I was planning on pulling out, I just thought I could last a couple more seconds before I stopped!" Gilbert put a hand on Matthew's shoulder but Matthew brushed it off, just pulling up the blankets further up on him.

"You seem to forget I've never taken testosterone and one fuck up could be what I takes! Plus, according to my calendar, it'd be pretty easy to knock me up right now, so I have a lot of reason to be upset!" Matthew yelled. He ran a hand through his hair and sat up. He got out of the bed and picked up his clothes, lazily throwing them on. "I'm gonna go back home. I don't want to concern my dad when he wakes up without me there." Matthew said as he started walking out. Gilbert grabbed his robe and wrapped it around himself, chasing after Matthew. "Besides I don't really think that was a good idea anyway. We hardly know each other at this point we shouldn't be having sex."

Gilbert groaned and rubbed his face. "Matthew! Seriously! Everything will be fine! Just calm down ok?!" Gilbert grabbed Matthew's arm and pulled him away from the door, looking him in the eyes. "I promise. Things will be ok. I wasn't trying to hurt your feelings. And I admit, maybe it was a little early in our relationship to do that, and maybe I wasn't properly prepared to do that. But I still love you!"

Matthew looked at Gilbert for a good couple of minutes completely silent. He didn't know what to say. If he should apologise for his behaviour or if he should still be angry. But in the end, he was too tired to be upset. "Alright, I overreacted... I'm sorry.. but I should go back to make sure my dad is ok.." Matthew gave Gilbert a quick peck on the cheek before he walked out the door, shutting it behind him. Gilbert stood there for a second and listened to Matthew's flat door closing. Well, that was an eventful night.

In the morning, there was plenty of regret. Mostly on Matthew's end. He had been a bit sore from work the day before, but adding on his little present, his bones were aching and creaking. He had a hard time getting out of bed the next morning because he just felt so comfortable lying there. But he did get up. He wouldn't close the shop just because he hurt, they didn't have the money to lose that sort of business. But it did make Matthew wonder if they should hire someone to work in their shop or something. Matthew knew Gilbert had at least two workers in his shop. So Matthew knew he should start looking for people. He was stressed enough as it was with the shop on his own.

He decided to do that when he was downstairs. Matthew got dressed and said good morning to his father before going downstairs to his shop and opening the doors. He was glad he was working after the sun came up today. Matthew went over to the front counter, picking up his schedule book and seeing there were only a couple of orders he needed to prepare for today. So he went and watered a few of the plants, grabbed a couple of materials he needed, and then waited.

It wasn't long before Gilbert sauntered into the shop and stopped at the counter, leaning on his forearm and looking at what Matthew was doing. He opened his mouth to speak before Matthew stood up and gave him a quick kiss. "I'm working. And you should be working too." Matthew said before he sat down in his seat and wrote a few notes down in his notebook about a couple of plants. He was serious, and Gilbert huffed.

"But someone else is doing my work right now! And I want to be here with you!" He leaned over the desk some more and got closer to Matthew. "Come on, let's go to the back room all quick like and-"

"Is that man bothering you, Mattie?" A voice called out from the door. Matthew's eyes went wide as he pushed Gilbert away and stood up, hands over his mouth.

"Alfred!"
