Adam pated Evan on the back as the latter coughed his lungs out. The confession had caught the giant off guard, not expecting this question from Adam at all, and even less asked so casually.

"What? You don't want to date me?" The warrior asked, feeling slightly disappointed. His heart squeezed at the thought that his feelings weren't, in fact, reciprocated, and that he was the only one thinking that way. Adam belittled himself, calling himself stupid for believing that he had a chance in a normal relationship. His parents and his whole family had given up on him, no one believed in him. The slave he bought a few weeks ago wouldn't possibly like him, he was only being delusional. His jaw muscles tightened while he continued to pat Evan on the back and rub circles to smoothen out his cough.

The slave cleared his throat after his lungs finally emptied out, before taking Adam in his arms in a bear hug. Adam's face rested awkwardly between Evan's bulging chest, his cheeks squeezed and making him do a duck face. His nose was tickled by the giant's chest's hair, but a nice virile scent filled his nostrils. His knees were slightly bent from having his face lowered in the man's chest, so he had to grip Evan's shirt to keep himself from completely falling against the man's body.

"Of course I want to date you, my little adorable hedgehog. You just surprised me by asking so suddenly. I like you, even if I don't show it that much. I'm just scared that I will make you afraid because I'm too much. Too possessive, too obsessed, too jealous. I know I have issues, but I will try to work on them." Evan said while clutching Adam to his chest with his strong arms around the smaller man's upper back and head. Adam's eyes widened at the words, his vision becoming blurred as tears filled them. It was like a huge burden on his shoulder had been lifted.

Adam's voice came out muffled as he tried to say something, making Evan realize that he was squeezing the man pretty tight. He apologized as he took the man out of his chest. Adam, instead of getting away, only redressed his body. He put his neck at an awkward angle to get a look at Evan while still being glued to the giant's bulgy and comfy chest muscles. The warrior found the resting place quite nice, with just the right amount of bounciness. He now understood why Evan was so obsessed with his chest last night.

The bear looked down at him with soft eyes, a slightly crazy glint hidden in the depth of the hazelnut iris. Adam rested his chin between the two pectorals and a smile stretched his lips.

"I don't mind your craziness, far from it. I haven't shown it yet, but I'm also quite possessive of things that are mine. I think we are well matched. What I want to say is that you don't need to hold back. Be possessive, obsessed and jealous as much as you want. As long as you accept that I act this way too. I like you, my giant bear." The master said, a slight blush covering his brown skin. He felt slightly embarrassed to admit that he didn't mind the other man's crazy attitude, and that he was, too, not exactly right in his mind. As a strong warrior, he shouldn't feel good being coveted nearly like an object by another man, well, that's what his upbringings taught him. However, with Evan, he felt like he could accept that side of himself, that he wasn't weird from wanting another man's support and affection.

His attraction to Evan's muscled body wasn't wrong.

His love for the man's broken but beautiful soul wasn't abnormal.

The world was crazy, but they weren't.

Society was shit, the world was collapsing on itself and nothing could stop it. People were dying, starving and committing crimes, while the rich people were partying and slurping tea with their little fingers raised in a show of useless pride. The natural resources were being drained by self-centered idiots and nobody was doing anything.

So why should their love be sinful?

They were the only normal ones.

Evan took Adam's chin with his fingers, raising it slightly, while he bent down. Gently, his lips fell on Adam's ones, caressing them like a long-lost lover would do. Their skin melted together and their breath mixed. They couldn't tell anymore which lips belonged to who, which one of them was inspiring and which one was expiring. They had fused.

The kiss stayed on the surface, never heading toward a sensual or sexual direction.

It was a show of their love for each other, even if only liking was evoked. They wouldn't admit it yet, but love had already planted its seed in their heart. They expressed their sentiments with tenderness for a few minutes before finally separating. Their lips were red and slightly bruised.

Evan stared at Adam's mouth, the man's lips were already plump to begin with and now they were even more kissable. His pronounced cupid bow lip was calling for him to bite it. Still, the giant held himself back. They had just spent a wonderful and touching moment together, he didn't want to ruin it because of his lust.

Suddenly, his lips were slammed against and Evan found himself having to counterattack Adam's assault. The kiss this time was angry and lustful, their hunger for each other showing in the form of clashing teeth, biting mouths and licking tongues. Their hands groped muscles and scratched the scarred skin with cut nails, not succeeding on breaking the skin, but enough to leave red marks. They quickly became breathless, but both men only separated when they were on the verge of fainting.

Adam put down his raised heels, licking the trail of saliva dripping down his chin. With a wink he wiped off Evan's own trail as the man was too stunned to react.

"I told you, you don't need to hold back. Take what you want, I will always give my all to you." The warrior said before turning his back to the giant to hide out of the door.

He was ready for his first date.

Hey dear readers, they are having their first date!

I wonder how it will go, hahahahahaha.
