PREDATORY〖 chapter two 〗

"AH, WHAT'S THIS?" a low, teasing voice startles Reo out of his thoughts, his eyes flying open in an instant.

And then, he sees Shidou's intrigued reflection in the mirror.

"Giving me a show, Reo-chan?" Shidou grins at him, meeting his gaze in the reflection. "Aw, come on. Don't stop there. I didn't even get to see the big explosion."

Reo moves faster than he ever has in his entire life, quickly scrambling to cover himself, his face heating up in a panic as he brings his pants back up in a hurry.

Shit. Was he not careful enough? Had he woken him up?

No—more importantly—how long had he been there?!

"S-Shidou?!" Reo stammers, his eyes widening and darting around the room. "What the hell are you doing here?"

"The fuck you mean what am I doing here? I had to piss," Shidou shrugs, licking over his lips. "But then I got hard watching you. I had no idea you were a little pervert, Reo-chan."

Instinctively, his eyes flicker down to the fucking bulge in Shidou's pants, his breath catching. He stares at Shidou as he takes a few steps closer, casting a long look in Reo's direction.

"Well?" Shidou glances down at his lower half, his smile widening. "Aren't you going to finish?"

Reo's eyes widen incredulously. For an embarrassingly long moment, his brain struggles to catch up.

"W-what are you talking about?" Reo stammers, his heart racing in a hurry. He's never felt so embarrassed in his entire life- god, he's never going to live this down, and...

Shidou sighs.

"Look, I'm not here to judge you for wanting to jerk off," Shidou shrugs. "We all get pent up."

Reo's suspicious gaze lingers, his face heating up when their eyes meet again.

"Yeah, well, it doesn't matter. I'm obviously not going to do that in front of you." Reo's arms cross over his chest when Shidou bursts out laughing.

"Oh yeah? Were you expecting someone else?" Shidou grins, winking at him. "Is Nagi going to meet you here or somethin'?"

At that, Reo visibly tenses up, his gaze averting. A few seconds of awkward silence pass before Shidou's eyes nearly triple in size.

His long eyelashes flutter as he rolls his eyes.

"Oh?" Shidou hums. "Don't tell me your shitty little boyfriend doesn't come around to fuck you anymore?"

Boyfriend? Reo wasn't even sure if they were dating anymore. Given how things ended between them, probably not.

"No," Reo shifts uncomfortably, his mouth feeling suddenly dry.

He doesn't think he can ever look Shidou in the eye again. Not after what he's done, after what he's seen, and-

"The fuck? So he leaves you and expects you to use your fucking hand?" Shidou scoffs when Reo looks away. "No wonder you look so miserable, purple bun."

Reo's gaze remains distant.

"He shouldn't have to be here. I'm not his responsibility," Reo mutters. "It's not Nagi's job to take care of me."

And with that, Shidou's look hardens, his thick eyebrows knitting together in puzzlement.

"Hah? Who the fuck said anything about responsibility?" he rolls his eyes. "He either fucks you or he doesn't."

Reo's jaw clenches. Of course he didn't get it.

"Yeah, well, it's not that simple." Reo could already feel the sting of traitorous tears prickling at his eyes, his face burning with humiliation. "I don't know if we're even dating anymore, so..."

God, he's almost certain that Nagi's moved on by now. Maybe he's already forgotten about him, found someone else to take an interest in, and-

A few stray tears roll down his cheeks and Reo quickly moves up to wipe them away. He notices Shidou's expression turn to one of pure disbelief, his lips twisting up.

"Fuck, then let me do it for you instead."

And just like that, Reo feels his entire world come to an abrupt stop. For a few seconds, Reo blinks up at him, completely taken by surprise.

"What?" Reo blurts out. To his shock, Shidou doesn't even look fazed.

"You heard me. If he's not doing it, then there shouldn't be an issue," Shidou shrugs, throwing him a long look over his shoulder. "Let me touch you."

Reo's breath catches in his throat, his eyes widening. For a moment, all he can do is stare.

What the fuck.

"I-I..." Reo starts, his voice wavering. "I don't know. It wouldn't feel right, I think."

"Hah? You don't know if you want to feel good?" Shidou raises an eyebrow amusedly. "What, are you into being blue-balled or something-"

"You know I'm not talking about that," Reo bites back, his face heating up with embarrassment.

There was a stark moment of silence in the room as their eyes locked together. Shidou's snarky little grin grows wider.

"Holy shit, you've got to be kidding me," Shidou laughs, this time, in full, unabashed mockery. "You're depriving yourself of pleasure because of fucking Nagi?"

When Reo doesn't say a damned thing Shidou lets out another loud laugh, rolling his eyes.

"That little shit left you and you're still thinking about him?" Shidou snickers, meeting his gaze with an unimpressed stare. "Seriously? Just move on."

If only it was that simple. Reo clenches his jaw.

"I don't know how to," Reo hangs down his head. "If it was that easy, don't you think I would have done it by now?"

Shidou raises an eyebrow, his long blonde lashes fluttering, "What?"

Reo clenches his jaw, his hands balling into fists by his side.

"I don't know how to stop thinking about him," Reo blurts out, his heart racing in his chest. He's never felt like this before- unusually lost, so fucking vulnerable.

It was Nagi's fault. All of this was Nagi's fault, and fuck, Reo loved him too much to even let him go.

Or was he too scared to let him go? Reo's eyes quickly lift up when he notices Shidou take a step closer, regarding him with darkened eyes.

"Ah. So you want to move on but don't know how to." Shidou lets out a low hum, mouth edging up into another condescending little smirk. "Y'know, if I didn't know any better, I'd think that you're asking for my help."

Maybe he was. Fuck, maybe Reo needed this. Just one time.

With a little shudder, Reo shut his eyes, swallowing back the little ache bubbling in his chest.

"...Yeah." Reo mumbles. "I think I am."

Shidou's grin widens into a big smirk as something primal flashes across his pink eyes. He takes another step forward, backing Reo into the counter, Shidou's larger body pressing up against his.

Reo could already feel his fingers roaming, gliding up and down his clothed body. Just his touch was enough to ignite something in Reo's body, his muscles tense with anticipation.

"Oh? Good," Shidou's heavy gaze lingers, his pupils blown wide. "Then let's try it. Try forgetting about him."

Reo looks away.

"I already told you. I don't know how," Reo whispers, his heart clenching tight in his chest. "I don't want to."

Shidou grins.

"Fucking hell, it's not that hard. Just close your eyes," Shidou huffs amusedly, the corners of his lips curling up into a shit-eating smirk. "Imagine I'm Nagi, but better."

Reo swallows thickly. He looks away as Shidou leans in close, the look in his gaze quickly going dark. Predatory.

"Unless you don't want to think of him at all." Shidou's snide grin turns savage. "Either way, I don't mind."

Fuck.

"You're making this weird," Reo narrows his eyes when Shidou laughs.

"Yeah? And what's wrong with that, huh?" Shidou grins. "It keeps things exciting."

Maybe. Reo decides to stay quiet, keeping that thought to himself - still feeling Shidou's eyes on him. Watching him for a few seconds, waiting, before rolling his eyes.

"Ugh, shit. Just tell me what you wanna do, purple bun," Shidou sighs loudly, his patience worn thin. "Like holy fuck, is hooking up with you always this complicated? What, do you want me to sign a fucking NDA too?"

Reo shoots him a narrowed glare, his hands clenching into fists.

"Look, not everyone can be you, alright?" Reo blurts out. "Even if I do this, I can't just forget about him-"

Helplessly, an involuntary shudder ran through him the moment Shidou grabbed Reo's face—not caring to be gentle—turning it so their eyes could directly meet.

And in that moment, Reo genuinely panics. He realizes Shidou probably catches the glimpse of fear and surprise in his eyes for a split second, his heart racing when he sees something predatory cross the other's gaze.

"Exactly. And you know what your problem is? You think too much about shit that doesn't even matter." Shidou muses. "What, have you never done this with another guy? No hookups?" Shidou's voice lowers, laughing when Reo reluctantly shakes his head. "Ah, so you're a little fucking virgin. That explains it."

Reo's brow furrows. As if.

"I'm not a virgin," Reo grumbles, narrowing his eyes when Shidou waves him off.

"Don't worry, my sheltered pillow prince. I'll treat you right," Shidou purrs. "I'll show you all the fun you've been missing out on."

At that, Reo's violet eyes lift in confusion.

"Fun?" he echoes, giving the other man a weird look. "What are you talking about?"

And to his surprise, Shidou's maniacal grin only grows wider.

"Fuck me. You poor thing," Shidou snickers, throwing back his head with a loud laugh. "Don't tell me- did he neglect you in bed too?"

"Uh. No," Reo casts his gaze to the side awkwardly as Shidou's hand quickly made work of his sweatpants, sliding them down in a hurry. Before Reo could even react, he felt one of his hands reach down to cup the aching bulge in his underwear through the fabric, giving it a little squeeze.

And with that, Reo feels his body jerk up- his muscles tensing up with anticipation. He doesn't know where to look- his eyes awkwardly looking anywhere but at Shidou directly.

Should he even look at him? He's never done this before, and somehow, having another person who wasn't Nagi touch him... fuck, it was definitely weird. Different.

Unfamiliar.

Shidou's hand rubs him through the fabric again, his eyes lighting up with desire when Reo gasps.

"Hm. I don't believe you," Shidou grins, his hand slipping under the waistband of his underwear. "What, would you only get boring-ass vanilla sex once a month or something?"

Before he can answer, Reo's breath catches as Shidou's hand slips inside his underwear, wrapping firmly around his cock. He touches him curiously, running his hand over his throbbing arousal, collecting Reo's drooling precome with his long fingers.

Reo feels his head tilt back a little, his eyes fluttering. By the second, it was feeling harder and harder to breathe.

"It wasn't once a month," Reo exhales softly, a shaky curse escaping him when Shidou's fingers roughly dig into his slit. He hisses under his breath, a burst of pain and pleasure surging through him.

"Oh? Well, he must have not been that good," Shidou idly muses, watching Reo as his hips buck into his touch wildly.

He smirks.

"See, if I had you all to myself, I'd be sure to fuck you every night," Shidou continues, his voice low. "I'd fuck you so good you wouldn't even be able to walk. I bet Nagi never fucked you like that, huh?"

And before he can say anything, Reo's breath catches as Shidou lowers his face towards him. He stays there for a few seconds, raking his gaze over Reo's features before pulling his hand away.

Reo's eyes flutter open in confusion as he looks up at Shidou. He stares at him, looking into the heat in his eyes, the pure desire glimmering within his gaze.

And in an instant, it happens all too fast.
