" no , you use 'me' because it's the object of the preposition", Mandy smiles as she corrects Ian
The pair of best friends cuddled up on her couch as they did their homework
" so it's , 'with max and me'?", Ian raises a brow , tapping his pen down on the page as he looked at her
" yup"
" it sounds weird ", he mutters as he corrects his homework
" I'm telling you , it's right ", she rolls her eyes as she gave Ian a look
" heh , okay ", Ian chuckles , but he continues changing his homework anyway , he glances up halfway when the front doors pushed open , mickey strolling in carelessly before burping loudly
Mickey glances over , not stopping in his steps as he rolled his eyes " douch bags ", he calls them as he crosses the room and leaves
" ass face ", Mandy replies with a huff , but Ian's grinning as he watched where mickey had just left , leaning back to see Mickey for a second longer before he slammed his bedroom door shut
It doesn't even take another second before he's pushing his homework down beside him and pulling Mandy's legs up from his lap with a deep sigh
" gotta go to the bathroom ", he tells her , lying smoothly through his teeth as he continued to grin with the same sly look , getting up as he spoke
" hold the handle down when you flush ", Mandy calls out before he leaves the room
" okay ", he smiles , glancing behind him a she rounded the corner before looking back to a oblivious Mandy and heading straight to Mickeys room
" hey ", Ian stills , hand holding onto the door nob as he glances over
" do you want a pizza bagel ?", Mandy asks , still not looking over
" sure ", Ian smiles again , pushing the door open as she left the room in the other direction
..............
Ian let's out a deep shiver , exhaling loudly a she came into the small grocery store he worked at
" hey , sorry I'm late ", he smiles half apologetically when he notices kash at the register
" no biggie ", the older man shrugs off , placing his magizine down as he smiles at the sight of the red head. Watching as Ian shrugged his two coats off and hung them on the hanger before making his way over to stock up the produce
" good news ", kash starts when Ian doesn't say anything " Linda's done with me this month "c he tells Ian , getting up and following him as he tied on his apron - not yet seeing the frown laying uncomfortably on Ian's face
" oh , yeah ?", Ian supplies dryly , not even sparing a glance behind him
" maybe we could , um , adjust the cameras for old times' sake ?", kash grins slyly as he came up beside Ian
Ian doesn't reply , though , he forces his head in the other direction as he pretending to be busy , slumping slightjy in relief when he hears the door opening , the bell going off as a women came in
Kash steps back immediately, sparing a confused frown at Ian before shaking his head and walking back to take his place behind the register
........
By the time his shift ends , Ian was wanting to quit with the constant looks kash was giving him
Ian didn't want kash anymore though , it was because kash was who took his virginity was why he seemed to hang up on the man for so long
It took him literally fucking someone else to realise all the negatives with kash
He only saw them when they were shoved into his face , and even then Ian would find the quickest exit root so he didn't have to face them
Kash picked up the keys to his car , giving Ian a hopeful smile as the red head went towdDs the coat hanger
" you wanna head to the back-", he shuts himself up as a tall raven haired , handsom but strapped up man came in , his lips twitching up when his eyes instantly meet Ian's
And Ian can't help but grin at him
" uh , sorry , man , the shops closed ", kash tells him as he purses his lips , his voice drawing attention to himself and that he was there
" what are you doing here ?", Ian smiles , informing kash's words as he started to put one of the three coats on
" for you , freckles , obviously ", Tate chuckles slightly , smiling as he came over to grasp Ian's coat off of the hangers and put them over his shoulders
" right , cause I could definitely guess that", Ian rolls his eyes , the smile playing at his lips ever present
" aww , I knew you could", Tate coos mockingly down at him before wrapping a arm over Ian's shoulder and steering them towards the door
" Ian ?", kash calls out with a deep frown
Tates the only one that glances over , Ian ignoring him once again as he pretended he didn't hear anything , and Tate can only smirk at kash with a look in his eyes before he's following Ian out the door
...........
Ian was breathless , laying back against passenger seat as he and Tate kissed like they'd never be able to again .
It was deep , and messy , and passionate .
Tate was leaning mostly across the gear stick as he grasped Ian's chin , kissing him deeply as if he wanted to steal all of the oxygen from Ian's body
Ian's pretty sure that it's already happened , there was no air left in him as far as he were aware , he was breathless - but he continued on , cause kissing tate was something so different to anything else
Tate smiles when he pulls away , reaching out to push Ian's seat back completely
Then he's hovering over ian , a spluttered laugh falling from Ian's lips
" I want to take you out ", tate pants out , a deep gruffness to his voice due to the lack of oxygen and Ian's gaze flickers over his face as he melted back against the back of the car seat
" okay ", Ian nods slowly
" not in public ?", Tate asks , raising a brow as he hale asses trying to catch his breathe
" I'm not out to my family yet , Tate ", Ian sighs , shaking his head with his lips twitching down
Tate only smiles down at him
" not in public , then . That's fine ", he shrugs off , then he's leaning back down , chuckling against Ian's lips as he captured them again before they even caught their breathe
