Broken Together (Shane X Reader)

Chapter Two

"S-Sure." You say, your voice shaking with anticipation. Somewhere quiet? Where to? Would we be alone? What would we do? Millions of questions raced through your head as you stood up to follow this strange man. You had only met him a moment ago, and now you're following him to the back of this bar. Behind the doors and into a narrow dark hallway. Why did I say yes to this complete stranger? We've had only one short conversation and yet I feel as though I can already trust him. I could turn around now. I could leave the bar and forget this. I could go home where it's safe and nothing is uncertain.

Your train of thought is broken by your boots tripping on one of the old floorboards in the hallway. "W-Woah!" You begin to fall forward bumping straight into Shane. He turns in the nick of time to catch you. You feel his arms quickly tighten around you and pull you in closer.

"Careful there. Don't tell me you're already too drunk to stand." He teases.

"I'm fine, just tripped on one of these old floorboards. I'm not so much of a lightweight that I'm too drunk after just one beer." You begin to blush, it's been so long since someone has held you, let alone in such a protecting way. You shift your weight so that you're able to stand properly. Only then do you realize how tall this man is. He's a good head taller than you and a bit on the chubbier side, but still with muscles big enough to feel through his sweatshirt. You look up into his deep eyes, close enough that your noses are almost touching. "Now then, just where are you taking me stranger?" You smirk.

"Stranger?" He raised an eyebrow at you as his mouth tilted into a cute smile. "After we just talked for a whole minute? I'm hurt." He playfully responded. "Besides, not the best idea to follow a man you barely know into a dark empty hallway is it."

"Don't you worry about me, I can hold my own." You take a step back smiling. Eager to see where the night will lead next.

"It's right through here." Shane says, holding open an old door at the end of the hallway. You walk inside curious as to what could possibly be inside. Your eyes adjust to the dark to see a ... storage room? It's filled with beer barrels and cardboard boxes. This is what he wanted to show you? A small empty dark room? Maybe this wasn't the best idea after all. Your thoughts are interrupted by the sound of the door closing. "Just wait there a moment." He says walking in front of you. The man then crouches down and begins to move a large pile of kegs and boxes around. He must be insane. What could he be looking for? Maybe it's not too late to leave, you begin to turn and look for the door when suddenly a small light flickers. You turn suddenly to see a long wooden bench along with a beer keg on a table made of cardboard boxes with two glasses next to it. There's a small lantern besides the bench with a small flame flickering inside it.

"Wow... How is all of this back here?" You ask, amazed at the small comfy set up.

"It's a little area Gus set up for when any of his guests get too drunk to get home. I know it a little too well." He says looking down at the floor while scratching is messy hair.

"And you're sure it's okay for us to be back here?"

"Sure, no ones using it at the moment and Gus is too busy with the crowd to notice even if he did care." Shane got up and began to pour two glasses of beer from the keg. "Here, have a seat." He stood and motioned towards the bench. You sit on the farther side as to give him more room, but he sits right next to you, your thighs pressing up against his.

You take the pint and finish most of it in a few quick swigs. Shane does the same. "So... how many girls have you taken back to this little hide out of yours." You tease.

"You're the first." He replies, wiping the corners of his mouth with his sleeve. "It's not often that I talk to anyone besides Gus and Emily, so I haven't really gotten the chance to show anyone back here." For some reason, this made you feel special. You've only just met this man and he's already shown you a part of himself. A secret place that's just for you. You blush at the thought and look back at him. What is this attraction? Even though you've only known him a short amount of time you realize you haven't felt like this about someone in such a long time. Maybe... just maybe he feels the same?

"Shane, I want to thank you for sharing this with me." Your face turns crimson as you begin to speak. "I barely know anyone in this town but now I know I have at least someone to fall back on. I hope... I hope you know that there is someone in this town who gives a damn about you okay?" You turn your head towards him to see a semi shocked look on his face. His cheeks began to turn a light pink under the glow of the lantern. He turned towards you and in that moment you knew, the feeling was mutual.

You both lean towards each other till finally you were mere centimetres apart. Your eyes softened as you slowly tilted your head to fit his. "[Y\N], I... " You cut him off with a soft kiss. As you began to pull away, he turned towards you and pulled you in close. His lips were soft and warm, and comforting against yours. You felt your body raise itself as he pulled you in even closer, positioning itself on his lap, your legs spread on top of his. Your arms reached around his neck and pulled even tighter, His hand slowly making its way down your lower back. The other slowly runs it's fingers through your long soft hair. His fingers tightened and pulled slightly making you let out a soft moan in between kisses. You felt his lips rap into a smirk before they began to intertwine with yours once again. The feeling of his breath against yours was warm and intoxicating.

You felt a hard bulge underneath your waist as you continued to press against him. His hand slowly sliding lower and lower until it reached the waist of your pants. He pulled back for a moment, his breath short and his eyes soft as they gazed into yours. "Is.. is this... okay..." He asked, slowly slipping his hand underneath your panties. You nodded and pressed your lips onto his once again. As your lips and tongues intertwined you slowly began lifting your tight shirt, pulling the fabric above your head to reveal your breasts as your hair fell slowly framing your face in a dark room. Without breaking the kiss Shane wrapped his hands around you and laid you down against the bench while slowly taking off his jacket and shirt. His body was much more refined than you had imagined. As his large muscular arms pinned down your wrists you moaned softly once more. He began to kiss your neck as you slowly began to undo the buttons on your pants. You may have only known Shane for a short while but nothing you had ever experienced compared to this connection. You wanted him. You needed him. You wanted to be as connected with him as possible.

You gracefully slid down your jeans to reveal yourself in nothing but your underwear. He pulled back once more and began reaching with one hand towards his belt, the other intertwined with yours. "Are you sure?" he said, undoing the top few buttons. His face red for the heat of passion. You couldn't be more sure of anything in your whole life. This wasn't just some hookup. This was more. This was a real connection.

You brushed your hand against his face and softly whispered, "Yes."
