Acceptance

Let me love you.

  "Babe don't give me that look. I was seven", Quinn tried to defend his dignity.
Ryan held his stomach,  trying hard to stop himself from laughing but he couldn't.
Quinn smiled fondly at him and shifted his gaze to the dark sky. It was night and they were on the roof discussing about the past. The sounds of vehicles sounded in the distance.
Ryan finally stopped laughing and Quinn shifted his gaze to him. He frowned when he notice the slight crease on his forehead.
"what are you thinking?
Ryan tilted his head to him. "several things"
"like? "
"like spending time with you,  doing things I'd never imagine myself doing.
" what are those things you never imagined yourself doing? "Quinn looked curious.
Ryan ducked his head. "Like that time we went skinny dipping in a lake "
Quinn chuckled softly. " you were adorable".
Ryan threw an empty can of beer at him which he caught out of reflex.
"Or that other time we went bowling"
Quinn nodded in agreement and drank from his beer..
"never had that sort of fun in my teenage years, you know. Like my dad always said " Fun is for unambitious people."
"Fuck that shit, Ryan. Your dad isn't here to rule your life anymore and besides all work and no play makes Ryan a dull boy"
" Man,  you mean?, Ryan corrected.
Quinn grinned. " sure".
Ryan shook his head and drank from his beer.
" we could try something else you never could have imagine yourself doing to add to the list", Quinn suggested.
"what's that?, he asked innocently.
Quinn smirked and wriggle his brows.  " have sex on the roof ".
Ryan choked on the liquid,  his face red from perhaps him nearly choking to death or from the insane words he just said.
" No way that is going to happen ".
Quinn's pout was indisputable from a mile away.
" let me love you,  Ryan" ,  he whined.
" you are drunk".
" absolutely not".
Ryan ignored him.
"come on,  don't leave a guy hanging ".
Ryan was in thought. It's not like he didn't like having sex with the man, he did,  he enjoyed it even. But out here on the roof,  it was insane. They could catch a cold. Was he willing to take the risk just to satisfy the youthful,  energetic young man?. 
Quinn sighed and stood up. "let's go in, it's getting late"
" I can have have sex on the roof with you,  only on one condition, Ryan suddenly said.
Quinn gaped at him before his lips broke into a grin..
"name it"
" I stay on top"
Quinn's brows furrowed with a frown.
Ryan chuckled. "I stay on top, silly. Like ride you", he elaborated.
Quinn smiled smugly. "we could arrange that".

********************************
  Somehow after an erotic sex on the roof,  they had ended up on Quinn's bed and had continued from where they stopped.
Quinn kissed Ryan's swollen lips before rolling to his side. His breathing ragged.
Ryan didn't need a seer to tell him the aftermath of how his body would react come next morning. He was close to forty and was still involved in such vigorous activity. It didn't help matters,  that his lover was a young, healthy man still in his prime. One thing with youths was stamina and that,  Quinn surely possess.
"Are you okay?, Quinn asked raising his body above him and supporting his weight with his hands on each side of Ryan's head.
The older man blinked at him and pushed him aside.
Quinn laughed as he bounced on the bed.
"couldn't you go easy on an old man",Ryan glared at him.
Quinn groaned and raised his body again. "Stop calling yourself an old man, Ryan.
Ryan rolled his eyes. "I'll be thirty eight by the middle of next month".
"hey", Quinn held his chin. Age is just a number. It doesn't matter if you are going on thirty eight or forty eight. I'll still find you irresistible, naked or not. You know why? "
Ryan swallowed and shook his head.
" That's because I love you. So,  stop worrying yourself by thinking I will grow tired of your ass,  literally."
Ryan hit his backside, a furious blush on his face.
Quinn grinned,  dipped in and kissed his lips .
"Quinn? ", Ryan whispered when he pulled away.
"Hmmm".
"I love you too".
