And he sucks until he can taste the saltiness of the come in his mouth. 

"I love you."

"I love you." Kiss. "You did great, you were so good —" 

"I'm so hard."

"Want me to —" 

"Yes," he says, even though he has no idea which particular thing Sasha is proposing. 

Then he'll push Lev until he's standing and kneel down in front of him and — take care of him. 

He thinks about using the gloryhole himself-- about not knowing whether the person who's sucking him off is a guy or a girl but suspecting that it's probably a guy but there's still the plausible deniability that it could be-- he finishes.

Sasha swallows and closes his pants and gets to his feet and kisses him, and then they can go back out to the bookstore. 

Look at this prominently placed shirtless cop calendar!

"....Lev. Look." 

"Huh, I wonder if Marlo's--" He flips through it. "Marlo is July, look."

Specifically, Marlo is shirtless, handcuffed to the wall, and very obviously hard.

"— we're getting it." 

"Yes, we are. Thanks Erogame."

Thank you Erogame indeed. 

After forty-five minutes or so of being beaten while tied up and ten minutes or so of waiting for Bandile to be done, Marlo's bruises are hidden and he's prepared for this to be as awkward as it's going to be. 

Bandile comes out. He looks very relaxed. 

"Let's go home."

He looks good, relaxed. Not that he didn't look good before. 

(Self knowledge is — not a curse, never a curse, but kind of uncomfortable sometimes.) 

"Let's," he agrees. 

Bandile is quiet on the way home and spends the rest of the afternoon on his laptop. 

After an hour or so Marlo gets a text.

Lev is staring at the calendar in awe. 

"Tell him I jerked off."
