Please, Don't Leave Me

Chapter 14

          After catching their breath, Nathaniel smiled and stood up and held his hand out to Marc to help him back on the skating floor. Marc took it and kissed Nathaniel's cheek. Neither boy cared who saw; they were in love, and that was that mattered. They made it over to the floor and started skating when an older woman skated over. "Excuse me, but could you stop? Seeing you boys acting like a boy and a girl makes me sick," she said when she got close enough. Nathaniel couldn't believe this. "With all due respect, Miss, but if you're sick you shouldn't be in public. I don't want you getting my boyfriend sick, ya know?" he said as he took Marc's hand to skate away then looked at her again, "Also, it's 20XX. We can openly love who we want. So why would I hide the fact I'm dating the cutest boy alive??" He smiled lovingly at Marc before kissing his cheek, rewarding Nathaniel with a happy smile. "That was the sweetest thing ever!" he said as he hugged Nathaniel. The redhead blushed and held him by his waist. He loved how the jacket he was wearing perfectly showed off his slender, androgynous curves. An image came into his mind and he blushed even more; he wanted him, every inch of him. 

          To hide the chance that he may have gotten turned on by a mere thought, Nathaniel released Marc and took his hand before starting to skate once again. Marc smiled and skated with him, admiring how toned he was for what was not the first time. He wanted him; that much was clear, but at the same time he was scared. He was scared that Nathaniel would eventually get tired of dealing him and his flashbacks. Or what if he got disgusted knowing Marc wanted him sexually? Marc's thought began to race, his confidence leaving him so he got wobbly. Nathaniel looked at him and guided him to the seats where they sat earlier. "Babe? What's on your mind..? You were so happy and confident a minute ago..." Marc blushed and looked away. "I-I-I was thinking...." Nathaniel's eyes softened as he scooted closer. "About?" Marc looked at him and instantly locked his emerald orbs with Nathaniel's electric blue, "I-I-I... um.... I-it was... um..." Nathaniel kissed his forehead. "You can tell me anything, Babe. You know I won't judge you." Marc looked away blushing before taking his phone out and typing "I want you.... But I'm scared...." Nathaniel's eyes widened in shock before softening lovingly. He leaned over and kissed his cheek again. "I want you, too... But I want to wait until you're ready, OK? I don't want to hurt you or scare you... I want to make it special for you..." Marc's eyes widened then he looked away blushing big time. Nathaniel smiled softly; Marc was just too damn cute for his own good. He took Marc's hand before hearing his phone go off. He checked it to see a text from Nino saying "Hey, everyone! My parents are out of town so I'm throwing a Halloween party. Nate, do you think you and Marc will be to come?" Nathaniel looked at Marc. "Wanna go to a party at Nino's tonight?" Marc thought for a moment than took Nathaniel's phone and texting "This is Marc. We'll definitely be there!" Nathaniel looked surprised that Marc took his phone. Marc giggled, "You said it'd do some good to have fun,and you were right. So I thought going to a party would be fun, too." Nathaniel smiled. "Time to go buy costumes then, huh?" 

           The couple left the skating rink and went to a few clothing stores but none of their costumes looked good so they walked around until they found a Halloween store. Marc's eyes lit up, and he dragged Nathaniel inside, making him laugh. Marc immediately began looking at the costumes, finding several themes such as bikers, cowboys, rock stars, etc. One was even a cop. He imagined Nathaniel's reaction to the cop and blushed. Would it turn him on? He shook his head; he wasn't even sure if he was ready for that type of thing. He blushed as he kept looking around but sighed; he didn't see anything so far. He looked at Nathaniel, who was looking at the cop costume. "I really like this one, Babe! Wait! We should do a couple's set! Like you pick the theme and we dress to it." Marc looked away in thought then it hit him. He looked up and saw a female version on Chat Noir. "Why not Ladybug and Chat Noir??" Nathaniel smiled big; that was perfect!! "Try on the Chat Noir costume! I wanna see it on you instead of that ridiculous picture!" Marc blushed but went and tried it on. He looked in the mirror and saw himself in skintight vinyl shorts with the belt/tail was shorter to accommodate. The top was a tight crop top that showed off his abs, and it came with a black choker with a big beautiful bell. He blushed big time and opened the door. Nathaniel looked over and actually dropped his Ladybug costume and he walked over to Marc. "Whoa... Babe...." He bit his bottom lip; DAMN he was hot. Marc blushed shyly but smiled. He kinda liked seeing Nathaniel turned on like this. Marc felt Nathaniel rest his hands on his hips before feeling his breath on his neck. He remembered when Andrew would do this so he tensed up but held Nathaniel in place; he wanted to work through this. 

          He took shaky breaths and when Nathaniel kissed his neck again, Marc actually looked in the mirror and saw what their position looked like. He bit his lip and closed his eyes, relaxing under Nathaniel's kiss. His cheeks were dusted with an obvious blush. He didn't want Nathaniel to stop. Andrew who? Nathaniel made sure that he forgot all about his past and that he focused on him instead. "N-Nate... W-we should probably stop while we're in public.... B--but I... I think I'm ready... For you..," Marc managed while holding back moans. Nathaniel looked surprised at what he said then he let go,remembering where they were. He quickly went and tried on the Ladybug costume. When it fit just right, he got redressed again and waited for Marc, flustered beyond measure. They've only been together a full day, but he was ready. He shook his head, clearing his head. Was it a good idea? They wanted each other so badly, and they've loved each other longer than they've been together. Marc came back, snapping him out of his thoughts. Nathaniel paid for the costumes, and they went to Nathaniel's house, his mother still at work.
