Octavio glared at his friend. Even after winning the games, he didn't feel like going to a party. He didn't feel like his usual happy self. But Ajay insisted on it.

"He clearly wants to make it up to you, just let it go, will ya?"

Taking a deep breath, Octavio finally agreed to going. Elliott looked happy, but he couldn't share his excitement. The speedster decided to take a nap, as he did have about 3-4 hours to get ready. After a much needed bath, Octavio drifted into sleep.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The speedster woke up with a start, realizing he had 30 minutes to get dressed and get to Elliott's apartment. Getting his legs, his favorite pair of black jean shorts and a plain white t-shirt, he hurriedly grabbed his leather jacket that was waiting for him by the door and ran out.

He arrived a little late, but he was glad to see that not everyone had showed up yet. He spotted Ajay, but before he could go up to her, he saw they way she was laughing happily with the professional soldier, so he decided against it. Looking around once again, he decided he couldn't go wrong with talking to Gibraltar. Once he jumped into a conversation with him and Pathfinder, he found himself laughing aloud with them. Forgetting about his dumb insecurities, he allowed himself to have fun with the two friendly legends.

Even though he was enjoying himself with the people in front of him, he couldn't help but glance at the trickster. He managed to join in with Ajay and Anita, most likely not noticing the intense sexual tension between the two. The three of them seemed to be having a lot of fun. After a silent nudge and a knowing look from Gibi, Octavio went over to talk to them, but not before saying a kind goodbye to Pathfinder.

Ajay kindly let him into the conversation, giving him a "get rid of this man" kind of look. Octavio glared but slightly nodded. He knew she liked the trickster, she just really wanted her alone time with her newest love interest. After talking for a few minutes, he managed to convince Elliott to go with him to get themselves and the girls drinks. After a quick explanation, Elliott blushed red and Octavio couldn't help but laugh. Avoiding the strong urge to ruffle the taller man's hair in front of everyone, he lead the trickster into the man's own bedroom. 

The smaller man pinned the trickster against the wall. He couldn't hold back anymore. Octavio tried to tippy toe his way up to Elliott's lips. Realizing he couldn't reach, he started to back away. Before he could, Elliott grabbed the speedster by the waist and pulled him in for a kiss. Elliott's hand found its way to Octavio's ass, and that's when he was pushed away. 

"Amigo! There's a party and you're the host."

"You're the one who dragged me in here. Take responsibility."

Octavio looked down to see something bulging in the tricksters pants. Although Octavio felt his own pants getting tighter, he knew they couldn't do anything until the party was over. After expressing this, Elliott nodded, laying down on his bed so he could 'calm down'.  The speedster sat at the foot of the bed, waiting for the same to happen. Suddenly, the bigger man grabbed Octavio by the shoulders and pulled him up onto the bed, losing balance doing so. Finding himself on top of Elliott, Octavio blushed as Elliott had a dumb smirk on his face. The kind that said 'I totally meant to do that and it was definitely not an accident'. Beside his better judgement, he leaned down to kiss the cheeky trickster before getting off.

Tying his jacket over his waist to hide his bulge, Octavio went back out into the room. Most of the legends hadn't noticed, but he saw Ajay, Anita, and Gibi all looking at him with stupid smiles on their faces. Flustered, he scratched the back of his head and went to the counter to get himself more alcohol. He'd need it if he wanted to make it through the rest of this night.
