"It's working," Marius replies, earnest even with the catch of his breath and the shudder that runs through him in response to Freddie's touch along his cock again. He can still feel the stickiness of his last release, which makes him blush, but Freddie doesn't seem to mind it.
The people he goes home with, Marius finds, have all been obliging and amiable about the matter, for the most part, friendly and joking, even, in the mornings after. Some of them have even become friends, or, in the case of Maya, his coworker, even better friends. With the exceptions of a couple of terrible nights, one of which was a good portion of Marius' fault, Marius has had rather good luck with the entire enterprise of attempting to sleep his feelings away. Though, no matter how many people he goes to bed with, no amount of intimacy can quite quell the dull aching of his heart, when Marius really stops and considers it.
Which is why, of course, he does his level best to avoid considering it.
"Something like that," Marius manages with a laugh, leaning in closer to Freddie's smile, letting their lips linger close for a bit as his own touches travel lower down Freddie's body, more insistent. His eyes flash with a teasing glimmer and his own mouth quirks into a crooked smile. "Maybe not quite the whole city, though. I'm not that ambitious."
He snorts, shaking his head as he pulls back a bit. "I suppose they have a point, there. Physical attachment is still attachment, no? Just without the chocolate and flowers."
It's surprisingly easy to laugh and tease with Freddie like this. If Marius stops and thinks of it, he would have cause to worry. As it is, he leans in again instead, pressing his mouth to Freddie's, kissing him thoroughly. He pulls back again with another teasing glint in his eyes. "As it happens, I suspect you're quite attached to my mouth."
