------------------------------------------------------------—

It's a hot day in LA California and everyone at the hype house is in the pool. Well, except for Nick Austin, who is happily watching the fun from the balcony. He has his eye on one of the hype house boys, in particular, Tony Lopez. He and Tony had been hooking up ever since the quarantine started. Something about the long nights and endless boredom made feelings come to the surface that, admittedly, had been there since Tony and his brother Ondreaz joined the hype house in December.

Even though their quarantine romance had been going on for a few weeks now, they had been doing a good job of making it seem like their relationship was just made up for the enjoyment of their fans. Their feelings for each other had been flying under the radar thus far and they wanted to keep it that way. They would be able to too if it weren't for sneaky Thomas Petrou. Ever since he figured out that 🧸 X 🚁 videos got more $$ views, Thomas had been sneaking up on Nick and Tony to film when they seemed especially close. He seemed to have his phone out constantly and today was no different.

In fact, Thomas decides to mess with the two boys and ends up filming Nick right as he signals to Tony to meet him inside. Nick throws Thomas two middle fingers and thankfully the older boy plays it off for the sake of the TikTok. Nick would have to check Thomas's account later and see how much damage he'd done, but right now all he can think about is how hot Tony looks in the pool. Little water droplets are dripping down his exposed six-pack abs and his wet hair is falling gracefully over his face. Seeing his man like this has Nick excited and he will need some relief, and soon.

Once he is sure that Thomas has put his phone away for good, Nick motions to Tony again and mouths the words:
"Meet me upstairs."
Tony cannot exactly make out what Nick is whispering from the distance but he can see his hardness through the gap in the railing and catches his lover's meaning. He signals back. Satisfied, Nick heads inside to prepare for their secret rendezvous. Tony, however, is still stuck in the pool. Seeing Nick's erection had given him one of his own and he is hiding it to the best of his ability. He knows he needs to make an excuse that won't make the other swimmers suspicious.

"Hey, guys. My fingers are pruning up. I think I'm gonna get out and go film the new brand deal for Bang Energy." Tony says to the group

Thomas turns to him with a smirk and says, "While you're at it, why don't you and Nick film some more shipping content, make us even more money."

Frustrated at his joke Tony replies, "You know what Thomas? Why don't you go make us some money and stop mooching off of our views for once."

Everyone looks shocked at the outburst but he doesn't care. Tony hastily gets out of the pool and walks inside, not even bothering to dry off all the way. His skin is still moist and his body temperature is rising for more than one reason now. Eager with anticipation, Tony heads over to Nick's room (which is technically also Chase's room) on the first floor. Nick's room is where most of their sexy time takes place as Tony currently shares a room with Ondreaz. He trusts his brother more than anyone, but he's just not ready to come out to him yet. So Nick's room it is!

As soon as Tony reaches the door, Nick's arm shoots out and grabs him firmly by the waist, pulling the damp hunk into his bedroom. He pulls Tony into a forceful kiss, placing one hand on his face. He uses his other hand to shut and lock the door. Tony wraps his hand around Nick's waist and flips them around. Taking back dominance, he slams Nick's body up against the door and deepens the kiss.

Tony plants a trail of kisses on Nick's neck.

Nick lets out a small moan and says, "I missed you, baby. You looked so hot in the pool."

Tony feels up his still growing bulge and asks, "Is that why you're so hard for me?"

"Yes." Nick tries to reply but it comes out as more of a moan.

"I missed you too," Tony says back.

Both of their shirts fall to the floor and Tony hastily works on the blonde boy's pants.

"Is that why you're being so rough with me?" Nick asks between kisses and moans.

"Am I? I'm sorry baby." Tony caresses his cheek apologetically and kisses his lips lightly.

"Don't apologize. I like it. It-It turns me on." Nick responds, the pleasure Tony was causing him making him stutter.

Nick's honesty reinvigorates Tony. He smirks and says, "Well in that case..."

———————————————————————————

After they finish in each other's hands, Tony flips Nick around so that his plump pair of cheeks face him.

Tony whispers in Nick's ear, "What do you say you let me hit that today?"

Nick sighs. Tony had tried this every time after their second hookup.

"Tony, I told you. I'm not ready for that yet. Why can't you just be content with fooling around right now?"
He makes puppy-dog eyes at the curly-haired man.
"What we just did was fun wasn't it?" he asks

Tony tries to persuade his lover as he tugs on his waistband. "Yes, of course, that was fun, and it felt good. But it would feel even better if you let me—"

"No, ok. I'm just not ready. I will let you know when I am, but it's not right now."

Nick pulls up his pants and walks to the other side of his room where a dirty shirt has fallen out of his laundry basket. He uses it to clean himself up and then abruptly tosses it to Tony so he can do the same.

Feeling hurt by the sudden cold treatment, Tony apologizes, "Nickie, baby, I'm sorry. Of course we can wait till you're rea—"

"I think you should go. I can hear the others back inside from the pool and we don't want them to suspect us." Nick says, not letting the other man finish.

Pleading now, Tony replies, "You know they don't suspect a thing. Please, can we just talk about this? I didn't mean to—"

Nick's eyes are filling with tears now and the lump in his throat from holding them back makes his voice crack a bit.
"Please just go. I need to talk to Chase alone."

Tony starts walking toward the door with a heavy heart at having caused a fight with the man he cared so much about.
"Sure sure." he concedes, "You're not gonna tell him though are you?"

Nick is crying now.

"I don't know." he sniffles and wipes his wet cheeks, "I'll see you later ok?"

"Ok," Tony replies with a sigh and closes the bedroom door behind him.

Nick curls up in a ball on the bed, still crying, and calls Chase Hudson on FaceTime from across the house.
