Eric's back hits the wall before he can react.
Justin hadn't pushed him hard—
just enough to cage him in.
Just enough to make Eric's breath stop.
Justin's hand rests beside Eric's head.
Not touching him—
but close enough that Eric feels the heat like fire.
justin:
"Look at me."
Eric does.
Those dark, calm eyes…
now burning with something he doesn't understand yet—
but feels everywhere.
Justin leans in slow, deliberate, predatory.
Not touching him,
but making the distance disappear.
His lips stop a breath away from Eric's ear.
justin (low, deep):
"You want to know what I'll do to you someday?"
Eric's knees nearly give out.
eric:
"Y-yes…"
His voice cracks.
Justin smirks.
Not playful—
hungry.
He exhales softly against Eric's neck.
Eric shivers violently.
justin:
"When you're grown…
when I don't have to hold myself back…
I'll show you exactly how it feels…
to be wanted so deeply it scares you."
Eric's heart slams in his chest.
Justin's hand lifts—
slowly, slowly—
until his fingertips graze Eric's jaw.
Barely a touch.
But Eric feels it down his spine.
justin:
"I'll take my time."
His thumb brushes the corner of Eric's mouth—
soft, careful, unbearably intimate.
justin:
"I'll learn every part of you…"
He leans closer.
"…and love every part of you."
Eric's breath shakes.
eric:
"Justin…"
Justin's lips hover barely an inch from Eric's cheek.
Not kissing—
but the tension is so sharp it almost hurts.
justin (whisper):
"One day…
I'll let my hands explore you."
Eric's eyes widen.
His legs tremble.
Justin chuckles at the reaction—
low, dark, satisfied.
justin:
"But not today."
He moves his hand from Eric's jaw to the back of his neck—
thumb stroking gently, sending heat through Eric's whole body.
justin:
"Today, I only get to promise you something…"
He brings his lips to Eric's ear again.
justin:
"When your body is ready…
I will ruin you with love."
Eric stops breathing.
His entire face burns red.
His fingers curl into Justin's shirt unintentionally—
seeking stability as he feels dizzy with emotion.
eric:
"You'll… you'll really wait…?"
Justin smiles—
a slow, knowing smile that makes Eric's stomach flip.
justin:
"For you?
I'd wait forever."
He taps Eric's forehead lightly.
justin:
"Or do you want me to show you how close I can get without touching you properly?"
Eric's entire soul jumps.
eric (panicked):
"NO! Y-you don't need to— let's go!!"
Justin laughs softly—
a warm, fond, teasing sound.
He takes Eric's wrist gently and pulls him close.
justin:
"Cute."
They start walking.
Eric is still red.
Justin is trying not to smirk too much.
And behind them—
From the bathroom—
Amber and Jonathan are STILL making noise.
Eric stiffens.
eric:
"I am going to go deaf."
Justin covers Eric's ears instantly, pulling him against his side.
justin:
"Don't listen."
eric:
"I WASN'T TRYING TO!"
Justin snorts.
They walk away, Justin's arm draped around Eric's shoulders possessively.
---
⏳ Days pass — and the wedding day begins.
Everything is glowing, emotional, chaotic.
Justin keeps Eric close.
Eric keeps blushing.
Jonathan keeps chasing Amber.
Everyone keeps yelling.
And the big day begins.
