"What."

....this should be interesting. 

"Where'd you hear that?" 

He crosses his arms. "Well, I was right."

The position of 'hottest person Lev has ever seen in person' is getting some unexpected new competition. The guy's face is human but his hands and arms and neck are covered with scales that shimmer green and yellow in the light. 

It would be gorgeous even if he didn't have a kink.

"I didn't say you weren't right," even though you totally weren't, "I asked where you heard that." 

"I'm a Morlock, we hear things. Like about the mutant boy living in Asher's house that he's been paying off the cops about." He glances Sasha up and down. "Apparently there's two of you, we didn't know that."

"That'd be because I don't live here and he's not paying off the cops about me. What's your name?" 

He's wearing eyeliner. This is just so completely unfair.

"Chris Parker. What's yours?"

"Alexander Mikhailov, but call me Sasha, everyone does. And this is Lev." 

"Your boyfriend's cute."

aaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaa

"You're right, he is." Sasha leans over and kisses Lev on the cheek. 

"Can I kiss him?"

"If he wants you to! — Lev, do you want him to." 

Instead of answering, he thunks his head into Sasha's shoulder. 

"I could just blow him."

That is NOT EVEN A LITTLE BIT HELPING THIS SITUATION.

"You sure could," says Sasha, who knows Lev. "But instead you're going to stick to kissing him until he figures out how to say words." 

Lev makes a noise of protest into Sasha's shoulder. He is not super clear on whether he is protesting this complete stranger kissing him or this complete stranger not giving him a blowjob.

"Fair enough," Chris says, walks over to Lev, lifts up Lev's chin, and kisses him very thoroughly and with great attention.

!!!!!!

And Sasha plays with Lev's hair with one hand and pulls out his phone and texts Asher

with the other.
