Pierced Ears

"Oh, c'mon Evan, it's not that bad. Yeah, I mean, I guess it hurts a little or whatever, like a little prick. It's not that bad, I promise!" Jonathan persuaded.

Evan crossed him arms. "That's only because you have, like, what, five piercings? Soon to be six or whatever? No, Jonathan, I'm not going to get my ears pierced."

"How about just one, then? You'll look good with your ears pierced, or even with just one ear pierced. Please? For me? It's not even that bad. It goes away within seconds. Really, it does, you know that I know what it feels like."

"No way, Jon. No. Way. My ears could get infected, I could catch the earring on something and rip my ear open. Maybe, you know, one day, I'll try to put an earring in through a half-closed ear and I'll punch through my skin and puncture something that really shouldn't be punctured. One day I'll just forget it's in there, and in the morning I'll be st-"

"Evan! I've had my ears pierced for years, and none of that has ever happened to me. None of the people I know that have earrings have had those things happen. Besides, if you clean your earrings and your ears often, then it really lowers the risk of you getting an infection, okay? Nothing bad will happen to you, I promise. Just trust me."

Evan looked away. "But, Jon... What if it does happen? I don't want that to happen to me, and it will hurt getting them in! I can only see problematic outcomes with this, nothing good!"

Jonathan sighed. "Please Evan? You can just get something small and simple. Two black studs on both ears, yeah? They can do it at the same time, put both earrings through at the same moment, so you won't have to go through it twice.

Evan thought it over for a moment, staying silent. He looked against it, but Jonathan couldn't tell if that was what he really was thinking about.

"Evybear, please? If you don't like it we can take them out and let them close, okay?

Evan sighed, and Jonathan looked disappointed. Jonathan gently grabbed Evan's hands and pulled him over. They stood about a foot apart, Evan looking away from Jonathan.

"I don't... What if something happens?"

"Nothing will happen, I promise," Jonathan murmured. He pulled Evan closer, faces now only a few inches away. "I'll own you something, too. Anything of your choice, within reason, as soon as you get at least one of your ears to have an actual earring on them. Sounds fair?"

Evan groaned, setting his chin on Jonathans head. "Only for you."

Jonathan cheered; Evan smiled. Evan considered the fact that seeing the joy on Jonathans face was enough of a gift, but he wasn't about to let go of the promise Jonathan had made to him.

An hour and a half later and Jonathan and Evan were back home. Jonathan kept staring at the ears of his boyfriend, and after a little while, Evan was getting annoyed. He couldn't even hold a conversation with Jonathan without the other one staring to the side of his face, straight at his black studs.

"Jonathan, would you please stop staring at my ears? It's getting annoying."

"No... You look so good with them in, I can't help it. I never thought I'd actually get you to get them, and now that you have them in I just can't help but stare. You're so handsome."

Evan sighed. "It hurt, you ass. They didn't even do them at the same time, since one of the things was broken."

"I know, but it wasn't too bad, was it? At least we didn't go the old fashioned way with a needle and some ice."

Evan shuddered. "No way man. That will never be happening."

"I know," Jonathan said, his eyes flickering to Evan's ears once more.

Evan growled and tackled Jonathan onto the floor.

"Stop staring," he grumbled.

"Why?"

"Because if you don't stop staring, I'm going to start doing some things you regret."

"Like what?"

"Do to your ears what you clearly want to do to mine," Evan whispered, leaning down so his mouth was right next to Jonathans left ear. He gently bit down onto Jonathans earlobe and pulled a bit, eliciting a soft gasp from Jonathan.

"I may have to keep staring," Jonathan huffed.

Evan laughed, continuing to bite on Jonathans skin.
