[The thing is, Jason had idolized Dick; still does on a good day. When Bruce sent him to find Dick he had never looked forward to something more in his life. He had pestered Bruce for a year with questions about his predecessor. All he wanted to do was impress Dick. Jason thought he would finally have a mentor, the mentor. Even still, he longed for that praise, that validation but Dick treated him like he was shit, unworthy of the suit, of Bruce. He wasn't any different than anyone else. Bruce had sent him here for guidance and a hell of a lot of good that's been.
Not for the first time that night or even since he arrived at the loft, Gar pulls him back from his thoughts. The kiss is unexpected. It's just a quick peck but his stomach does another stupid somersault anyway.
Jason doesn't know why he does it other than he wants to and sometimes that's reason enough. He turns his head and pushes himself up slightly on his elbows and when Gar turns to look, Jason closes the short distance between their mouths and kisses him. He doesn't linger, just a soft, gentle press of lips and then he settling back down on the pillow.]
I'm glad hanging out here with me is better than getting the authentic high school experience. What a compliment.
[It's hard not to idolize Dick, but then again, Gar idolizes Jason too. They're both robin to him, but Jason is closer to Gar's age and has done so much. He's an awesome fighter and Gar keeps coming up against him when they spar. It's Jason that Dick pushes Gar to be like and he strives so hard just to fall short.
He can turn into a tiger, but it's not always the most helpful thing. There are other skills that he wants as well. He can see how Dick pushes at Jason though-- Gar sees why, but he knows it's harder for Jason to see it. The walls that Dick puts up are stupid, and he knows how much it hurts Jason. Thinking about it now makes him chew over the inside of his cheek--
Except he's taken back when Jason chases Gar's tiny kiss with one of his own, this time it's a real one. Chaste as far as the kisses they've shared go, but his lips, those lips that Gar knows he's going to crave now dust his. Gar watches Jason as he settles and his heart jumps up a notch. ]
What do those guys have that we don't. We get action, and I've got prom night here with me. Why do I need to sit and dance awkwardly only to wait for an event that may or may not happen with someone that I may or may not care about.
[There's a twitch of Gar's lips, and he winks softly at Jason, his motions taste the seductive with a hint of play. Still, he turns and moves over enough to edge his elbows beneath Jason's so that he can lean up and over. This time the kiss he takes is soft, but it lingers. He doesn't push for anything more than a kiss; this movie is very much about making out and Gar is here for it. He slides his tongue into Jason's mouth again, reminding him of how much he enjoys this. There's not a rush this time, or the awkwardness of it being their first kiss together. Gar feels more at home as he closes his mouth around Jason's and slides his hand along jason's neck, sighing into the kiss. ]
They have cheerleaders- [The rest of his sentence is cut short by Gar's lips on his. Jason's glad Gar lingered because if not, he would have chased him this time. There's no awkwardness, no frenzied need rushing them through it. There is still heat though, that warmth that spreads from his chest down to his toes at the soft press of the other's lips, the slide of fingers on Jason's neck.
He makes a soft, quiet sound as he presses closer. His lips part, tongue meeting Gar's sliding against his languidly, taking his time to explore and get lost in the other. It's hard not to notice how easy this seems in a way so very few things are. It's starting to feel like he could get used to this, like he wants to. Watching a movie and making out with a cute guy, that's one high school experience he can cross off the list.]
[What were cheerleaders in comparison to this. Gar had to face it, this was growing on him relatively quickly. He wasn't sure exactly why, maybe it was because of what they did together earlier, or maybe it was for some other reason, but he couldn't stop his heart from fluttering in his chest, just like the jelly beans in his stomach, or were they jumping beans.
It didn't matter, nothing did-- not with Jason's mouth on his. The soft sound and way he easily opened up made Gar smile into their kiss, rolling more onto his back to give them a better angle as they made out. It let their chests relax against one another again. That warm touch of skin against skin so incredibly inviting. Gar lowers his hand and slides it comfortably down jason's back, just keeping him near as they ignore the musical for one another.
He really never thought his first kiss would lead to all this. It might have been something Gar dreamed about, hoped for, but it was a little bit more magical than he ever thought it really would turn out to be.]
[Yeah, cheerleaders had nothing on this. That was never really his type anyway, not that he even really had one or thought about it. If he had a type, Gar wasn't not it...
The hand down his back and the warm press of muscled skin against his chest has his heart skipping a beat and he reaches for Gar's stomach, tracing over the muscles, fingers sliding over every dip and curve as if he can commit it all to memory.
Maybe this is just one really perfect night and maybe that's all it can be but being with Gar, like this, it's like the rest of the shit disappears and it's just the two of them and all he needs to think about is how his hands feel on Gar's skin or the way his breath hitches with the slide of their lips and slow drag of their tongues.
[That was the thing about types. Gar really didn't know what his was until now, and this-- well, he would certainly include Jason in that category now. He'd seen what there was to see, and felt so much more and his heart told him that this curly haired friend of his was slotted completely into the category of people who were very much Gar's type now.
Not to mention the way Jason could kiss. Gar didn't mind if he didn't know how anyone else could kiss, because as far as he was concerned, this was the way it was supposed to go. If it wasn't then his whole body wouldn't be feeling so very much like a living, breathing extension of what was going on at his mouth. He could feel the way Jason's maddeningly pouty lips pulled at his own when their tongues brushed past one another. Gar curled his and then pushed it back to dig deeper into Jason's mouth, playing and tasting, pulling them both deeper into this expedition in kissing.
He could set up camp here, taking all night to soak up the feeling of Jason's fingers as they traced star charts over his stomach, making it quiver and tighten. It was like an act of reverence, but in the same way Gar waltzed among the dips and crevices of Jason's back and around his spine. There wasn't a spot that he limited himself from exploring.]
[No one has ever kissed him like this before or touched him like this. Gar explored every inch of bare skin he could reach, tasted and explored every curve and crevice of Jason's mouth like the secrets of the universe could be found just in their kiss alone. He caught himself smiling into the kiss, fingers splayed over the bare chest below him and he has to break apart and come up for air, faces close enough that he can feel Gar's breath on his lips.]
You think just because you had your first real kiss now that you can go around kissing like that?
[He nips at Gar's lip, tugging him back in to kiss him again, sighing as he licks past those parted lips to taste him all over again. He thinks he could spend all night right here, kissing until their lips are numb and the sun is coming up. As it is, he has no idea what time it is and can't bring himself to care. With Gar kissing him like this, everything else disappears.]
[There was an entire universe before Gar, a savanna to cross full of things that had never been explored and he was going to find and enjoy the ride that brought him through the desert and showed him the matched wonders to be found when two people drove themselves to touch and let go of their thoughts long enough to let their emotions run wild as they explored one another.
Gar savored the tang of vanilla and nutmeg that Jason reminded him of. Warmth and maybe even that feeling of laying in a bath surrounded by candles-- not that Gar had ever done that, but this was what he'd dreamed it would feel like. Lost in a million relaxing and yet exciting emotions. He never wanted to let go.
Licking one last time at Jason's lips before they parted, he took larges gulps of air when they broke the kiss, wondering if that was it. ]
Yeah, yeah, I do. You're the one who started it.
[He laughed and all but giggled when his lips were nipped at. he chased the feeling, grabbing Jason's lower lip to bite and pull through his teeth. He loved the way the flesh felt between the rows of his teeth, soft and full, he could almost tell what it would feel like to press down further and cut through the surface. That would be wrong though. Instead he swipes his tongue back through the opening, and wraps his arms back around Jason, pulling him in so much closer, letting their bodies come in closer so that they are tight against one another again.
Yeah, he could do this all night. Who cares when it's time to sleep, or if the stupid movie is over and another had started on its own. Jason is the only thing that's on his mind, and as long as they keep kissing, that's all Gar cares about for tonight.]
