Unspeakable

Chapter 65: Moving Pieces

Will had fire in his gut as he walked to Hogsmeade, his pale eyes intense as he walked quickly back to the house.

He opened the door and found Connor cooking in the kitchen, his eyes flaring with interest at the sight. Why did it look so attractive to see him cooking? It was so silly.

He felt like he was on a mission, like he was hunting something. He didn't want to disturb Connor cooking though, especially not when he was humming so happily like that.

He walked over to the living room, pacing back and forth as he tried to think of how to do this. Should he just outright say it? Should he give hints and tease him? He wasn't sure how comfortable he was with the sexual part yet, but he was willing to try. He'd do anything for him.

He let out a low growl of frustration, his nerves starting to get frayed by the second as he thought through scenarios. He knew Connor loved him, and had for years, but why? Why him? He'd described how he loved him but it was so hard for him to believe. He felt like he was a hollow shell of a man, carved out by his father but never allowed to grow as a person.

"Why are you pacing like that?" Connor asked, standing in the doorway eating the last bites of the ham melt he'd made himself for lunch.

William looked up at the question, and another low sound came from him. "I've made a decision." He said, feeling half crazed at the moment, as if something in him had dramatically shifted and he was having a hard time dealing with it.

"A decision about what? What are you so worked up about?" Connor said, finishing his meal, though was starting to sound concerned.

Now that he was done William rounded on him, storming toward him.

Connor backed up in alarm at the intense look on his face, until William pinned him back against the wall, his arms caging him in on either side of him while Will looked over him.

"About this." Will said in a soft hiss of words, his face inches from Connor.

Connor felt the world spin for a second as he looked up into those pale blue eyes. Holy SHIT this was hot. "O-oh?" He asked hopefully, his voice breathless with arousal.

William seemed to hesitate for a moment, his expression conflicted before he dove down and kissed Connor.

Connor moaned loudly against him and his knees nearly buckled at the kiss, gripping at William for support as his heart hammered wildly. Will was as merciless with his kiss as he was in battle, fierce and bold, biting his bottom lip before delving into him as if he would devour him. It made him melt, his desire and love for him finally answered after waiting for so long.

When the kiss finally stopped and Will took his mouth away, Connor was left in a daze, his head foggy "oh wow." He said softly, his voice shuddering.

William chuckled, looking a bit amused by how much he had affected the usually unflappable Connor. "Where did all those snarky words go?" He asked huskily.

"I dunno." Connor smiled in delirious glee.

"I want to try this. I want to be with you." Will said, leaning down to kiss his cheek before biting gently at Connor's neck.

Connor felt his toes curl from the bites, gasping against the wall. "Y-yes, god yes please-" he moaned out, his eyes wide with wonder that this was actually happening after so long.

"You'll have to be patient with me. I'm shit about knowing how I feel." Will grumbled against his neck.

"Oh I'm very well aware of that." Connor chuckled breathily.

"But I know I care for you more than anyone." Will murmured softly.

Connor's eyes widened, his breath catching as tears filled his eyes. "You do?" He asked in a small voice.
