Zane x Aaron // Breath

Inhale.

Exhale.

Repeat.

"Aa...ron?"

He couldn't believe what he was seeing. Who he was seeing. Aaron leaning his his doorway, panting with exhaustion. Still dressed in a suit - he should've been getting married at this very moment. Yet... he was here. Standing in Zane's doorway, beads of sweat running down his tanned face.

"What are you doing here?" Zane choked out, obviously surprised at the fact his best friend's soon-to-be-husband, was standing in his doorway. When he should've been getting married to his best friend.

Something tugged at his heartstrings.

Part of him glad that Aaron was standing here - and not getting married to Aphmau.

"She called off the wedding." Aaron announces, a band brushing back the hairs that blocked his eyes. "She finally admitted that she was no longer in love with me." Zane was surprised at how calm Aaron sounded. Any sane man would've been upset, if the one they loved called off the wedding, the day of the wedding. "She admitted to not being in love with me anymore."

Aphmau not in love with Aaron? That was a crazy thought. She had been smitten with him for so long. When they started dating, that's all she talked to him about.

Aaron.

Aaron.

Aaron.

She talked about him so much, that Zane swore he was starting to feel something for the other man. Something he wouldn't admit allowed. Something he wouldn't admit period. Falling in love with the man your best friend was in love with was just wrong. You're only hurting yourself if you do such a thing; watching your best friend with the person you love, tearing a hole in your heart in the process.

Zane had learned that the hard way. '

And yes, he had a heart, though he never wore it on is sleeve.

He had fallen in love with Aaron, after he started spending more time with the man due to Aphmau insisting that they get to know each other better. It was wrong, but he couldn't stop his heart. Getting to know the other man, sparked something.

The closer they got, the more Zane would think about Aaron. He'd often fantasies about kissing Aaron; Aaron leaving Aphmau for him... It was all so wrong of him.

"Why are you here?" Zane asks, voice shaking. He couldn't even begin to fathom why Aaron would be here, telling him that Aphmau called off the wedding. He had been Aphmau's best friend after all, though he had no plans on attending the wedding... Zane just couldn't see them become man and wife. His heart already hurt enough, Zane didn't think it could take anymore.

Aaron inhales a deep breath, lips pressed together. "Because... I think I love another as well." He admits, his gaze looking onto Zane.

"And... Who would this person be?"

Zane felt a pair of hands gingerly placed onto his shoulders, he noted Aaron's Adam's apple bob as she swallows back something. Before Zane could even fathom what was happening, Aaron's was leaning closer to him, before his lips covered his own. Zane's eyes grow big, unsure of what to make at what was happening.

After a long moment, he melts into the kiss. Eyes fluttering shut, and arms circling around Aaron drawing him closer. For so long he had dreamed about the taste of Aaron's lips, wondering at how sweet they tasted. Now he knew - they were sweeter then he could even begin to imagine.

Already Zane knew, he was addicted.

When Aaron pulls away, a small pout formed on Zane's lips. He hadn't been ready for their lips to part just yet.

"I think you got your answer."
