"Ssh. Stop fussing. I'm just braiding your hair." Reece scoffed, trying to part Luke's hair down the centre of his head.

Luke whined and grabbed Reece's hands, "Reece."

"Luke fucking chill out you shit." Reece snapped lightly, pinning Luke's hands down. "Let me do it?" He asked.

Luke huffed and nodded, relaxing, "fine."

Reece smiled and kissed Luke's head, letting his arms go and going back to his hair. Reece hummed as his fingers ran through Luke's soft curls, he loved Luke's hair, always smelt like mint which was Luke's favourite shampoo, always so soft because he used a foam in his hair. Reece leant down and scented Luke making the blond snort, shoving his face away. "Weirdo."

"You smell so fucking good baby boy." Reece grinned, he finished braiding Luke's hair, before he tugged Luke up with a huff when Luke whined. Reece grabbed his phone from on top Luke's constellations book and pulled up the camera, "come take a photo with me, I wanna post it on Instagram, you look too cute to not be all over the Internet." Reece said and wrapped his arm around Luke's chest, leaning their heads together. Luke blushed and hid his face against Reece's arm as he took a photo. "Don't hide."

Luke huffed and lifted his head, smiling softly at the camera. "Fine." He said, "you know I hate photos."

"Dunno why, you're an angel." Reece said and kisses Luke's cheek, taking another photo. "You're actually the cutest boy alive, dunno how you never got someone before me."

"Oh you know why." Luke said, rolling his eyes, "I'll talk to a guy, then I tell him I don't like sex and he either tries to persuade me or ghosts me, only you stuck around."

"I wanted to be here," Reece frowned, squeezing Luke, "you being ace isn't a con, it's just you, ain't your fault." Reece kissed him again and then he posted the photos of them together. They both had a few thousands followers just because they were cute gay guys.

Their closest friends commented on the photos, their friend groups had merged since they'd gotten together, and it was nice to be together with all their friends. Reece scrolled through the comments, liking and replying and he read through the latest one, from one of Luke's best friends Sierra: "I'm so so happy Luke found someone so perfect."

Reece pointed the comment out to Luke and the blond smiled at it, "she's so cute, I love her." He kissed Reece's arm, "and it's true, I found someone pretty perfect for me."

Reece laughed, dropping the phone and enveloping Luke in his arms. "People always say I'm perfect for you but god I look at you and you're everything I've always wanted Luke."

Luke felt himself tear up, so he turned around in Reece's arms and dug his face in to his neck. "Thank you Reece."

"Anything sweet boy." Reece kissed his neck, "absolutely anything."

Luke sniffled, and pulled back, sat on Reece's lap. "I know you don't really get much, like sexually and I know you do your stuff secretly and I'm really glad about that, that you're so considerate, so just, thank you for being so nice."

Reece ran his hand up and down Luke's arm, "Luke, you know I don't care about that, and don't say sorry about it because you have nothing to be sorry for."

"But—"

"But nothing you idiot, it's okay." Reece insisted, he leant up and cupped Luke's face, kissing him softly. "I'm with you because I like you, and your sweet face," he made Luke blush deeply, "ain't ever gonna fuckin' leave you baby boy."

Luke wrapped his arms around him, kissing Reece back, "thank you." He hugged Reece tightly, "you're too good."

"I try."
