Tempted(real)

Nicolas stood in the kitchen with Matthew, his eyes glancing at him from time to time. He really can’t help it anymore but accepts the immense guilt that Nathan’s touch gave him, he ate his breakfast but he also noticed Matthew was getting dressed, he got curious and decided to break the silence. “Where are you going?…” he asked, his head tilted slightly seeing Matthew not in his priest attire. “What? Is it not allowed to be with my husband?\~” he teased. Nicolas felt his heart stop realizing Matt was gonna come with him, what if he’ll find out?…

“N-no! The— the hotel is crowded so… you won’t like it…” he said sheepishly, “I can simply just stay in the staff room with you” Matthew said bluntly, knowing Matthew, there was absolutely no way he was gonna leave him alone considering he already considered Nicolas as his husband. He knew he was gonna find out. Though he loved Matthew, his mind rejected it, that fragile feeling of attachment crept up onto him like a shadow he wanted to forget.

As they arrived at the Hotel, Nicolas sighed nervously as he started his work, he was extra nervous since Matthew was acting like a clingy puppy, he was a wreck. He stood quietly at the lobby as Matthew left because one of his friends had called him for something, his hands tightly holding the clipboard as he felt the ominously mellow presence of someone he knew all too well, Nathan.

Nicolas stood stiffly as he felt Nathan’s hands wrapped around his hips, pulling him close. “Well… seems like you brought your little ‘husband’ with you?” He said with an almost mocking tone. Nic pushed his hand away despite how his body shivered in his touch. “We… we can’t be doing this…” he said, he was trying too hard to be strong but in such a crowded setting, he felt smaller than a mouse next to Nathan. “Seems like a little one stood up…” Nathan slowly closed in on Nicolas, his chest against his as he leaned down.

“You know damn well I can remove that curse better than that godforsaken priest….” He said, his hand grabbing Nicolas’ face. Nathan knew Nicolas’ curse but also his fear of attachment, using it to his manipulative advantages. “Just give in… give in to me Nic…” his hand’s grip on his chin loosened, slowly trailing up to his face, holding his cheek in that same sweetly toxic hold before leaning in, Nic closed his eyes and couldn’t help but kiss back, he was praying that somehow, Matthew won’t come but it felt like his prayers were unanswered…

Matthew stood stiffly at the door seeing Nicolas kiss another man, Nathan glanced at him with an almost malicious grin seeing Matthew’s shock, enjoying how he had his husband. “Looks like he doesn’t love you…” he said to Matthew, Nicolas closed his eyes in guilt, he hated his vulnerability, he hated his need, but he can’t help but feel them at the same time when it came to them, but the overwhelming fear Nathan brought him felt almost suffocating but Matthew brough him a sense of solace that he wanted back, a peace he desperately wanted with him only.
