Drugs, Sex, and Money (boyxboy)

"LET'S GOOO!" Mack and Morgan shouted.

"Cough it up, frat boy." Morgan turned to Will and said.
The two made a five dollar bet that Morgan and Mack's team would get a touchdown the next play.
Will sighed as he took out his wallet.

Mack got up to get another beer and headed to the kitchen.

He was followed.

"So who's that?" Harley asked quietly as everyone watched the game.
"Dominic?"
"Yea."
"He's my boss."
Harley's jaw almost hit the floor. "That's your boss???"
"Yea."
Harley looked back at Dominic, sitting on the couch, forearms on his knees, and scrolling through his phone.
"He's hot."
Mack didn't reply.

"You like him?" Harley wondered.
"What?"
"Do you like him? Like do you find him attractive?"
"Well, yea...he isn't ugly." Mack looked up at Dominic.

As if Dominic could feel his gaze, he looked back.

Mack froze and darted his eyes elsewhere.
Dominic just snickered at Mack's shyness before looking back at his phone.

"I hope you're not thinking about replacing me." Harley pouted.
"Your boyfriend is sitting on my couch." Mack responded and cracked open his new beer.
Harley sighed and rolled his eyes. "How many more times are we gonna do this? I don't even like him."
"But he likes you. You're not in an open relationship and I'm tired of you using me as a substitute instead of manning up and just breaking up with him if you're not happy. You're a really shitty boyfriend and we should've never done it to begin with." With that said, Mack walked back to the couch and sat next to Dominic. Close enough to make himself happy but far enough so that no one would be suspicious.

The game ended and everyone was in the kitchen conversing.

"I have to get up early for work tomorrow, so I think I'll head out." Morgan stated.
"Alright." Mack agreed.
"I'll walk you out." Will offered.
Morgan nodded and the two left.

"Do they know that they aren't very subtle?" Dominic asked.
"Ignorance is bliss." David responded and Dominic shrugged in agreement.

"SO!" Harley began. "What is it you do, Mr. Suit?"
"I run a pharmaceutical company." Dominic answered.
"Hm...Fancy."
Dominic's brows furrowed as he tried to understand what was so fancy about it.

"So how did you two meet?" David wondered.
"He's my boss." Mack replied.

Dominic noticed as the night progressed that Mack really only stutters when he speaks to him. To everyone else it had been smooth conversation for the most part except when he got too excited. Then he was like a precious broken record. Everyone also seemed used to it. But he was never anxious when they spoke to him. Dominic wondered if it was true that he made Mack uncomfortable.

"Oh okay, so you transferred jobs?" asked David.
"Yea. Harley didn't tell you?"
"No, this one's busy pretty often. I don't speak to him as often as you'd expect a couple should. I'm surprised he was free enough to join today." David shrugged.
Mack looked at Harley.
"Helping my family with things and I'm swamped with job interviews. Keeps me busy. I can hardly sit down." Harley stated and sipped his drink.
"I bet."

Harley looked over at Dominic again before finishing his fifth glass of liquor of the night.

"Do you have a boyfriend?" he asked him and set his glass on the counter.
"Sorry?" Dominic responded.
"You're gay, right? Or at least bi."
"Where did you-..."
"Look at me, Dominic."
Dominic examined him.
"Did you really think *I* wouldn't be able to tell?" Harley wondered.
"Uh...No. I don't." he answered the question.
"Why not?"
Dominic wondered why Harley was intruding so much. "I don't do relationships."

Mack felt a stab in his chest but just took a small sip of his beer.

"Really? Interesting. Strange friendship I'm sure. Mackenzy's a romantic who loves long walks on the beach and couple's getaways, hugs and cuddles, and you're the reserved friend that finds romance disgusting." Harley pointed out.
Mack took a deep breath before guzzling down his third beer of the night.

Dominic thought Harley's forwardness was annoying, but it was Mack's house so he decided he wouldn't start any problems.

"David, can you do me a favor?" Harley asked.
"Hm?"
"Can you put my jacket in the car? I don't want to hold it but I don't want to set it down and end up forgetting it."
"Oh, sure." David grabbed Harley's jacket and his keys.
"Try to find my lighter too, please." Harley added.
"I'll try." David responded and left.

Harley stepped closer to Dominic and Mack.

"You don't want him?" he asked Dominic and pointed at Mack.
"Harley, stop..." Mack instructed.
"What's your problem?" Dominic asked.
"Nothing's my problem. I'm just making sure I don't have any competition. Because if you won't appreciate a perfect man, I will." Harley replied. His hand found Mack's crotch and grabbed it.
"Harley!" Mack called and moved his hand away. He didn't want to be too aggressive because he knew Harley was drunk and small but he was crossing a line.
"Didn't your boyfriend just go follow instructions to bring your shit to the car?" Dominic questioned.
"Yea, what about it?" Harley began attaching his lips to Mack's neck.

Mack pushed him off again.

"Stop being shy." Harley instructed. "Am I embarrassing you in front of your crush?"
Mack didn't answer the question. He just looked at the floor and said, "I think you need to go."

"So you are replacing me?" Harley asked.
"You're in a relationship, Harley."
"BUT I LOVE YOU! NOT HIM!" Harley yelled.
Mack was in shock and confusion.
Dominic just stared and didn't know what to do.
"I've loved you and you didn't notice me until I was with someone else. I got with him so you'd see me and it worked and now you're pushing me away because of him?! THAT'S NOT FAIR!"
"Harley, you're drunk and delusional." Mack told him. "Go home."

Harley looked at Dominic.
"You're cute but this is just a visage. You're a distraction from me. He likes you because I'm somewhere else. He's not gonna fuck you like he fucks me. You mean very little, you're just hot and in a suit."
"Piss off, twink." Dominic responded.

The front door opened.
"Babe, I couldn't find your lighter..." David said as he walked in.
He saw the awkward tension in the room.
"Everything okay?"
"It's fine. Let's go." Harley walked towards the door and left.
"Um...Okay..." David agreed. "Bye, guys. Nice meeting you." he told Dominic.

The two left and closed the door.

Mack was filled with embarrassment and regret and didn't even know where to begin with his apology towards Dominic. He didn't expect the night to go this way.
"I-...I'm sorry...about that..." Mack began. "H-He isn't...u-usually like that a-and..."
He was interrupted when two hands grabbed his face and pulled the two close. Their lips pressed together as Dominic's hands ran up Mack's shirt then pulled it off over his head.
Mack pulled Dominic closer by his waist as their tongues danced.

"You wanna fuck me like you fuck him?" Dominic asked onto Mack's lips before kissing them again.
Mack shook his head. "Harder."
