Cameron x Nash Short Stories - cash -

L5-S1 Part Three

"The photos displayed in this spread are absolutely amazing, the concept of humans interacting with the elements that surrounds us is fascinating. I would like to set up a meeting, I'd like you to bring your portfolio of other spreads or series that you've done. I am available tomorrow at 10am, if you're able to meet I will have my assistant contact you with details." Cameron reads out loud and Nash's eyes widen dramatically.

"What?" He breathes out in shock, he had hoped and he had dreamed but the fact that they became a reality is absolutely shocking to him.

"He wants to meet with you tomorrow, baby. I'll drive you there. Your first attempt at getting published and the editor wants to meet with you! That's so amazing, Nash." Cameron smiles happily at the ecstatic look on Nash's face as he realizes that his dreams have a concrete possibility of coming true.

If he was a photographer for National Geographic he would prove his parents wrong, he would show them that his talent is good enough to make a career out of that it's not just a hobby, that it's his passion. He knows they subscribe to National Geographic and momentarily wonders what their reaction would be like when they would see his name attached to photos published there.

"Oh my god, oh my fucking god." He begins to panic because his portfolio is a mess. He hasn't found a coherent flow for the photos he picked to display his talent. He stands and grabs his portfolio, he spreads all of the photos on the floor and looks at them critically.

Cameron turns his attention to the computer, he responds to the email and soon enough the assistant emails Nash with all of the details. Cameron carefully writes down the address and time, he doesn't want anything to hinder Nash from realizing his dreams. When he's finished he turns back to Nash and watches him work, the intensity that Nash pours into simply arranging his portfolio is attractive to Cameron. What scared people away just draws him closer to Nash.

He doesn't want to interrupt him so he quietly sits there as Nash chews on his lips and tugs at his hair.

"I don't fucking..." he mutters as he moves photos around. Cameron looks at all of the beautiful photos on the floor, he gets an idea and wonders if maybe he should speak up.

He doesn't want to annoy Nash by giving advice on something he knows nothing about but Nash has been so sweet to him that he can't imagine him actually snapping.

"Maybe after your elements and humans series you can transition to nature and seasons, then it could flow into your last set of animals in the wild." Cameron says quietly but bashfully, he doesn't know if Nash will find his suggestion useful.

"Yes... oh my god. Yes, baby. That's perfect!" Nash exclaims and he quickly arranges the photos with an excited gleam in his eyes. When he's done, he looks down at them with a happy smile. He looks up at Cameron who is smiling at him, happy that his suggestion worked for Nash.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you." Nash says and he stands up, without thinking he sits on Cameron's lap and presses a soft kiss on his lips.

It's the first time that's ever happened and Cameron finds that he very much enjoys that position. His hands grip Nash's waist as they kiss tenderly, their lips making light smacking noises.

"Mmm," Cameron murmurs against Nash's lips, he's thoroughly turned on and he does want more but he wants to do it right, at the right pace so he keeps their kiss light but still passionate.

"I don't think I would have had the guts to click send on that email," Nash whispers when they part to catch their breaths. Their faces are close together and their eyes search each other.

"Then I'm glad I was here to click it for you, you deserve all of the success in the world Nash. I truly believe that. You're so thoughtful, you're kind and just... an all around amazing human being." Nash blushes at Cameron's compliments, he's not used to being wooed like Cameron is doing. He's not used to hearing such sweet words directed at him. His parents were never the most affectionate type towards him and Nash was okay with that but it feels good to have affection directed at him.
