Chapter 6 - Xisuma

“These cookies are amayzing, Big B!” Lizzie grinned through a mouthful of cookies.

“Thanks, Lizzie.” B chuckled lightly. “I have Grian’s here, do you think he’ll like them?”

“For sure, for sure!” Scar waved his hand, face twisting as he swallowed a particularly large chunk. “Chew before swallowing, everybody…”

Big B laughed lightheartedly. He always enjoyed baking for other people at the craft club, he loved to see their reactions. Even if they were negative, Big B could always take the feedback and improve. And he trusted his friends to give constructive criticism instead of just being mean. Joel in particular was analysing his cookie with such vigour. 

Suddenly Big B felt hands on his shoulders.

“Hey dudes!” Ren grinned, wrapping his arms around Big B. “May I try some of B’s finest foods?”

B’s face flushed a dark red. He stumbled to get his words out, avoiding Scar’s curious eye contact. 

“Y-Yes!” Big B spluttered. “An are fine unless they’re marked ‘Grian’.”

Ren reached over to take a cookie, not letting go of B. B could feel Ren’s breath on his neck, the exhilaration making him fidget. Ren finally let go to take a bite of the cookie.

“Delicious!” Ren nodded happily. “Thanks, B!”

Ren lightly tussled B’s hair before moving away to finish the treat.

“B?” Joel smirked. 

“Yeah?” B crossed his arms to try to hide his embarrassment. 

“Ren 100% has a thing for you.” Joel shrugged.

B straightened up so suddenly it made Scar jump.

“Easy, B!” Scar chuckled, clutching his heart.

“He doesn’t.” B protested.

“Mhm.” Lizzie smiled. “Hey Joel, didn’t that look like what we used to do before we got together?”

Joel nodded, smiling at the happy memories. “Before I even clocked that I had a crush on you!”

“The only relationship in this room that lasted.” B joked, glancing at Scar.

“Hey, what’s that look for!” Scar playfully smirked. 

“I’m pretty sure you’ve slept with most people in this room.” Joel teased.

“People just think I’m that attractive!” Scar covered up his feelings with another joke. “I’m just glad it didn’t get awkward between anyone.”

The situation was much more complicated than that. Yes, Scar had slept with almost everyone in this room but everything felt so temporary. He didn’t find it that enjoyable or even that loving. Some situations were very clearly one night stands. Yet Scar always wanted more. A lustful get together was one thing but he wanted love. He wanted long lasting devotion. His previous partner’s sweet little moments were far more romantic and intimate than sex itself. 

Perhaps it had something to do with his legs. Sex was always a little difficult when he couldn’t do half of the fun stuff. But even when he found a workaround, it still wasn’t good. It felt almost wrong. Even as HotGuy, when some of his flirts got riskier with CuteGuy, he didn’t actually want to be in bed with him. Scar was down for the flirt but he wanted a long lasting relationship which was sweet and cute.
