Then He Smiled [BoyxBoy]

Chapter Twenty-Five

Fin stood facing a full length mirror, leaning close enough that his nose almost left a smudge on the glass the last time I glanced at him.

"Your eyepatch." I blindly flung him the black item.

"Thanks."

"Can I look now?"

"Nope. Just fix your own makeup."

"It's not makeup."

A muffled chuckle. "What's wrong with makeup?"

"Nothing. Just not for me."

"I bet you'd look hot in eyeliner."

I scoffed.

"Get over here."

I turned around and bit my lower lip. "Fuck."

Fin smirked. "It brings out my eyes, don't you think?"

I took a closer step. "You look hot."

"You too."

Shaking my head, I allowed my eyes to skim over his costume.

When I suggested he should choose the pirate, I was messing with him so we could finally leave the store. When he bought the damn thing, I just laughed and looked forward to seeing him make a fool of himself.

Turns out I was the fool.

"Will you help me paint on a beard?"

"I thought that's why you haven't been shaving these past few days."

"Well, it isn't enough," he said, thoughtfully stroking his stubble.

I took the face paint kit from his hand and pushed him towards his bed.

He hummed as I stood between his legs. "We're not waiting until after the dance?"

"Shut up." I picked up the paint brush.

Fin snaked his arms around my waist and pulled me closer. "C'mon, let's have pirate/zombie sex."

I flicked the paintbrush on his forehead.

"Ow." He frowned, touching his forehead.

"You deserve it."

He tsked. "I was just flirting."

I dipped the paintbrush into the paint and immediately started on his beard to shut him up.

"It's cold."

"Stop moving."

"It's cold!"

"Suck it up. You're such a baby."

"You realize that makes you a pedophile?"

I made sure I dipped the brush into the cup of cold water before I continued.

"You look really good," he said a few seconds later.

"I look like a dead person."

"Yeah, but it's kind of hot."

"You have problems."

"You love it."

I turned away to use an old t-shirt as a cleaning cloth. "You have problems."

"Yes, I think we've already established that fact."

"I used repetition for emphasis."

"Right. Yeah. Of course you did."

I placed the paintbrush aside. "Done."

"Mm, but I wanted you to stay longer."

"You're so horny today."
