Brian Quinn realizing he was gay

Chapter 4: Sal

Holy shit! I can't believe last night just happened! Sal laid there, wide awake on Q's chest, his head lifting up as Q softly breathed in his sleep. He smells so good! Even his breathing is cute...and his dick! Omg his dick was so hard and big inside me and it was amazing! I hope this happens again, I loved it so mu- Q woke up. Sal felt Q's hand scratching his hair, which also felt amazing, and he grabbed his ass. He shuddered a little, but let it happen. Q continued squeezing his ass as Sal shifted to kiss him. His lips felt soft and he grunted a bit, stretched and sighed. Sal stared at Q, who's eyes were still closed, and wondered how a person could be so beautiful. Q opened his eyes and Sal looked away, blushing and feeling bashful. Q reached his arm out and held Sal's head, making him look at Q. Sal blushed harder and kissed Q again. Q whispered, "I wish I could kiss you forever and never stop." Sal breathed heavily, his dream finally coming true. He got on top of Q, his legs straddling Q's hips, leaned down and kissed Q again. He felt Q's arms wrap around his torso and he snuggled into Q's chest. This feels really nice. I could lay here forever and never get bored or tired of it. But he had to get up and go to work. At least he got to work with the most amazing man in the world.

He got up and helped Q out of bed (he just figured out that Q was not a morning person) and they took another shower together. They got dressed and headed off to set to film another episode. When they arrived, the entire crew was there and Sal and Joe were talking and laughing about their plans for the episode(and probably whatever prank they had up their sleeve). Sal followed Q to the set and realized that everyone was staring at them. He was really confused at first until Q turned to look at him, looking nervous. It wasn't a small nervous, either. He looked petrified. Sal asked, "Why are you looking at me like that, what's wrong?" Q whispered, still nervous, "Remember that hickey I gave you last night?" Sal nodded as he realized. "It's not that big! I felt it, I saw it in the mirror when we were showering!" Q shushed him, "Yeah, I know, but it swelled up and now it's super obvious." Sal got a sinking feeling. He got his phone out and turned on his camera, and what he saw scared him. A big, red bruise was in his neck, as obvious as it can be, and it was really dark. Not even his beard covered all of it.

He found a scarf in a bin and covered his neck, but Q took it away. "What are you doing?! Everyone is gonna se-" Q pulled him into a closet and covered his mouth. "Sal, everyone has already seen it, covering it isn't gonna do anything, it's only gonna make it more obvious that it's there. Everyone will realize that you're hiding something and it'll make everything worse for you." Sal stared at Q, wide-eyed, as he thought about it. Maybe we should just come clean. But what will they all think of us? What if some of them don't accept it? Oh shit, this could get bad! He didn't realize he started hyperventilating until Q kissed him, hard. He kissed back after a second and sighed. Q ended the kiss quickly and whispered, "It'll be ok, Sal. Just say you hooked up with a woman last night." Sal looked Q in the eyes, saying, "Q, I think we should just come clean to everyone. I wanna be with you, more than just sex. I love you, Brian Quinn." He saw Q tear up a bit and he realized that Q felt the same way. He hugged Q and Q hugged back. They breathed together, which calmed Sal down. They stood like that for a bit until Sal backed away a little bit to see Q crying. He smiled and wiped Q's tears away. "It's ok, Q. If they're real friends, they'll accept us. We've all kissed one another at some point, right?" Q looked at him. "Well yeah, but those were for the show. None of those were real for me." Sal kissed Q again, softly and quickly. He held Q's face. "But this is real. And if they're good friends who truly care about it, they'll support us. It'll be ok."

Q nodded and breathed deeply. They heard a knock at the door, which startled them. They both jumped and they heard Joe's voice from outside. "Hey, are you guys gonna come out? We don't care about your neck friend." Sal laughed and reached around and opened the door. He grabbed Q's hand and led them both out of the closet(lol). Sal felt the stares of everyone, but somehow didn't mind them. He saw everyone gathering around them in a circle, curious to see what the spectacle was about. Sal turned around to Q and looked at him. His eyes were gorgeous and concerned. He looked around at everyone, breathed deeply, and started. "I have an announcement to make." He paused and looked at Q, who nodded. Sal continued. "This hickey was made last night...by Q." He heard murmuring from the crew. He glanced at Murr and Joe, not able to look at them quite yet. "I've liked Q for years and yesterday we talked. He likes me back and I would hope that we can be more than friends. If you don't accept that, leave, because we're going to be whoever we want to be, no matter who disagrees with it." He let the silence absorb, allowing everyone to process what he was saying. Shit, this could be bad, but it doesn't matter. It's all been said already.

He started panicking a little because of how long the silence was going on when he heard Murr. "Oh my goodness, this is amazing! You two would be a great couple." He walked over and hugged Sal. Sal asked, "So you don't mind?" Murr laughed and said, "Of course not! I support gay marriage 100% and now my best buddies are in a relationship? This is amazing for us!" Joe walked over. "Agreed, be whoever you wanna be, we'll support you. Both of you." He looked at Q, who smiled and they all hugged. The crew all clapped for them, Sal felt relieved and happy, he could finally be with Q. Besides what happened last night, he'd dreamed of this for so long and it was finally happening. He smiled, laughing.

Q touched Sal's shoulder, smiling at him. "Sal, I think you're amazing and beautiful. You've made me happy for years as my best friend. I would love to take things to the next level and be your boyfriend." Sal beamed, blushing and tearing up. All the love he'd felt for Q multiplied by tenfold. He couldn't believe what was happening. He looked at Q, "Of course, I'd love to!" Q pulled Sal in and kissed him, everyone started clapping again and Sal felt emotions he didn't even know he had. He wrapped his arms around Q's shoulders and kissed him harder.

The clapping subsided, Sal pulled away from the kiss and he heard Joe say, "As much as I'm loving this moment for you guys, we seriously do have to start filming for the next episode. We were supposed to start ten minutes ago." Sal laughed and hugged Q. Murr patted both of them and they all walked off to film the next episode, Q and Sal holding hands along the way.
