The factory (Private)

[virtualoo]

"That would be nice.." Timothy said with a soft sigh and a happy smile on his face. Returning the kiss, he listened to Bram comment on when dinner would be ready. Getting distracted earlier, he finally went back to making the sandwiches. "I'll make sure a few good things go in the cart when shopping is done tomorrow. Get some basics and I'll cook for us.." He laughed, setting the sandwiches down onto two plates. "Dinner is served!" He smiled, already having taken a bite out of his.

[ZX-MetalMonster]

Bram returned to the table smirking softly, very sure that his friend would be in charge the following day when they go to the store.

-"So... we're becoming domestic already?" He asked playfully though he didn't dislike the idea of having the other man cooking for him and perhaps staying with him for more than just a few days of pleasing each other and sleeping together. He was aware though that he was thinking ahead and that it was wiser to be patient and wait for things to progress.

Having barely managed not to be sneaky and steal a bit of the food they had before the younger man was done making their simple dinner, Bram now quickly went through the sandwich not minding very much how it would seem if he finished the meal in a mater of a few minutes.

[virtualoo]

Timothy stuck his tongue out at the other, taking another bite of his sandwich. "Oh haha, then wheres my ring?" He joked with a mouth full of food, trying not to laugh as he swallowed. "I cant cook for you? From the looks of your fridge right now, i do not want to know what you eat on a regular basis. And I cant bum it out here all day and do nothing, the least I can do is cook a meal" He smiled, half his sandwich already having been eaten. The question was what he should do for breakfast tomorrow, trying to think of anything he might need.

[ZX-MetalMonster]

Bram paused devouring his sandwich in order to smirk playfully at the younger man. "You want a ring already... I'm starting to think this relationship will be very expensive for me..." he joked before chewing another bite. " I've been surviving without much cooking for years, and I'm sure you'll agree I don't look that bad despite it." Bram pointed out, knowing his friend couldn't agrue against that very easily. "Not to spoil you, but you don't have to do anything while you're here... think of it as vacation at a messy hotel where there's barely anything to eat."

[virtualoo]

"Well..I can't argue with that, you look good" Timothy said with a small cough before continuing onto the next topic. "I want to at least cook dinner every now and then when I do come over, sound fair?" He said with a smile. "My treat, I can make a good meal. I am a cooking genie, fear me!" He laughed, finishing off his sandwich. He wouldn't mind cooking for Bram, liking cooking in general.

[ZX-MetalMonster]

Bram spoke again when he was finished with dinner and leaned back to watch the other man with a soft smile. "Why should I fear a genie, isn't it your job to grant my wishes? " He asked with a devilish smirk. "You can cook when you come over, if that's really what you want to do." Bram wouldn't argue against the younger male doing the work he was suppose to, however he did hope his friend understood the point of them staying at the same place was spending time together.

-"Is there anything else you would like to do, we still have to figure out what we'll be doing the entire night."

[virtualoo]

"Because I Like ya" Timothy grinned with a playful tongue sticking out of his mouth. "And what to do..? Honestly not sure. The last time we tried to watch tv that ended in well..yeah.." Timothy blushes faintly before quickly recovering. "We can always get to know each other until we get too tired to stay awake. I want to get to know you better" He smiled softly.

[ZX-MetalMonster]

-"That sounds good... we should go back to bed or move to the couch though." Bram suggested, preferring to simply lean back and drift off oce he feels tired enough. "We can just settle down beside each other and talk..." He added with a soft smile as he stood up but crossed the kitchen to pick up a pack of cigarettes from where he normally kept them when at home. he noticed how this was another thing he would have to get more of when they make their trip to the store. "I'm just going to go outside for a bit... want to join me?"

[virtualoo]

"That sounds good..so we don't have to move to go to sleep once we start talking" Timothy agreed, cleaning up the plates from dinner. It would be nice to get to know his friend..well he was definitely more than a friend now but it would be nice to get to know him more all the same. "Outside..? Sure, I'll join you" Timothy said, seeing he was holding cigarettes. He probably needed a smoke before sleep or at least while they talked.

[ZX-MetalMonster]

With a light nod Bram lead the way outside and a faint smirk developed on his lips form the thought that he and the other man were becoming inseparable. Settling close by the door at the front of the house, he took note of how peaceful this night was with no echoes of a distant battle in the air and a soft light from a half moon illuminating the neighborhood.

-"I used to be nervous at night when I first came here... The front was closer to the factory so we could hear everything at night when the other noise would die down... though back then production used to go on 24/7 so there was at least something to keep us preoccupied..." Bram allowed himself to recall these memories out loud, after all he and the younger male were getting to know each other better and this was something personal he could share. He took one cigarette from the nearly empty pack and placed it between his lips before lighting it an inhaling a deep breath.

[virtualoo]

"I wouldn't be able to handle that I think..I hate the noises of the battlefield for a day much less having to deal with it at night" Timothy said quietly as he looked up at the sky and at the moon. "When I first got here, I always looked at the moon, it gave me some comfort. Reminded me of what mom told me growing up" Timothy chuckled to himself. " 'Timothy, even if things seems dark and scary, remember there is always a light somewhere. Just like the moon and the stars on the darkest night' " He smiled softly to himself.

[ZX-MetalMonster]

Bram meant to point out how easily the enemy could advance closer and the sound of gunfire fill the night again but what the younger man said regarding the moon made him rec onside the grim thought. With how long the war had lasted and how much damage had been done, it was hard to be overly optimistic but it was possible that the worst of it had already passed, that their enemy would never push them back again and that everything would only get better. Bram laughed softly at the possibility, knowing how unlikely it was.

He could have agreed with his friend but he found it more fitting to show him what was on his mind and how thankful he was for his company. With a faint smile, he leaned closer and places a gentle kiss on his cheek and staid close by him afterwards.

[virtualoo]

"I know its silly..But it reminds me of home and it helped me through some hard times in my first year or so" Timothy smiled sadly to himself. He returned a gentle kiss on Brams cheek and leaned a bit against him. "Didn't know how to survive amongst what I saw as a bunch of scary buff military guys. I was a soft country boy who never left his hometown and then here I am..Wasn't sure what to do" He joked with a small laugh.

[ZX-MetalMonster]

Bram smiled fondly when his friend described himself from when he'd first arrived, he could still see traces of that "soft country boy" but at the same time he knew how the younger man had changed.

-"Well... I'm glad you don't think buff soldiers are scary any more... Though I'm sure I would have managed to change your mind if you did." He smirked and loosely wrapped an arm around the other mans waist. "You're a bit intimidating yourself you know... especially when you're set on wining." Bram commented playfully and winked at his comrade, sure that he understood what he was referring to.

[virtualoo]

Timothy did turn a bit red at mention of his change in opinion of buff soldiers. He certainly did change his opinion over the years and the touch reminded him more so. He turned even redder at the mention of his..competiveness, knowing exactly what he was talking about. "I like winning and I can be competitive..sometimes" Timothy spoke quietly with a blush, his shyness being what he was like a lot his first year or so here.

[ZX-MetalMonster]

Bram enjoyed the sigh of his friend becoming shy but couldn't resist taunting him when the opportunity was given to him.

-"It's a shame then that you don't win very often." He commented and turned to the side to take another draw from the cigarette, afterwards flicking it to the ground despite it not having burned to the end. "Though you won that last round... but it's no wonder, I was having too much fun with you." Bram teased, hoping to make the other man flustered.

[virtualoo]

"That's not fair...!" Timothy said as he was easily flustered. "It's not my fault you make me want you so badly with your stupid eyes, your stupid voice and your stupid smile" He said in a more playful tone, face a bright red. "I'm glad I finally won though.." He pouted, trying not to turn as red or act flustered but it was too late for both.

[ZX-MetalMonster]

Bram's smirk only grew while he watched his friend respond exactly how he hoped and especially when he mentioned his "stupid smile". He knew it was likely the playful smile he had on his face now was exactly what the younger man was referring to.

-"I'm glad too, loosing felt better than I'd expected..." He admitted easily and started to nip the other male's neck, knowing how that might make him more shy. "Keep in mind though..." He started in between licking and lightly biting his comrades skin. "I'm still in the lead."

[virtualoo]

Timothy bit his lip when Bram started to nip at his neck, his face turning a brighter red. "I-I know that..You don't n-need to r-remind me.." He tried to speak clearly as it was making him feel all hot inside having his neck treated that way. "I'll find a way.." He bit his lip harder, afraid he would let out a moan if Bram kept this up.

[ZX-MetalMonster]

Bram didn't intend to stop toying with the younger male, especially after hearing his voice change. He spared him of the playful treatment for only a second while he laughed softly at his argument and then busied himself with leaving a mark on his neck. The other man had left many small, dark spots on his skin and this seemed as appropriate pay back.

Bram's hold on his friend tightened just in case he planed to try moving away and he was silent, too preoccupied with sucking on the man's neck to speak.

[virtualoo]

Timothy found himself stuck in the others grasp, unable to move away from Bram. He didn't struggle much after that, his content sigh coming out as more of a moan. Control yourself Timothy..! You can't let..simple neck biting turn you on like this. Control yourself..Timorhy said as he went to try and nip at the others neck in return.

[ZX-MetalMonster]

Despite having planed to only create one subtle mark on his friend's skin Bram moved on to another part of his neck to expose it to the same treatment as soon as he was finished with the first small bruise. He thought it would be a shame if their sweet, though playful conversation, would end in another competition and so he generously tilted his head to expose more of his neck for the other man to nip and tease. His hands moved along the younger male's back and the sides of his body and it seemed they would soon be getting to know each other through methods other than conversation again.

[virtualoo]

Timothy liked the kisses, not caring if his neck was bruised. He just liked the sensation of Brams touch and kisses upon his skin. He wasn't thinking about competition or even winning, he just wanted to be closer to Bram. Timothy nipped playfully at Brams neck, getting closer to Bram. He wrapped his arms around the others waist so he can hold Bram closer.

[ZX-MetalMonster]

Bram knew that it would be smart to step back inside, simply in order to keep warm if nothing else, but he didn't want to spoil the moment. After nipping at the younger male's neck for a moment longer he completed the second bruise he planed to leave on his body for now and then sought out his lips hoping for a deep, long kiss.

Though it was something they'd already talked about Bram wondered again while he exchanged tender touches with the other male what the two of them were to each other. Unlike previously however, he was more interested in finding out what kind of words he could use when speaking to the younger man. It was something he would have to test.

[virtualoo]

Timothy returned the kiss, happy to share the tender moment with Bram. He didn't want it to end, not so soon. Timothy saw that Bram seemed to be thinking about something but he was not sure what. Timothy stopped for a moment, tilting his head curiously. "Something on yiour mind..?" He asked quietly after the kiss ended, licking his lips for they were a bit dry. "We..um..should head back in..um..we will get cold" He said with a shy smile.
