Sedimus felt his heart thud in his chest at the request, a blush rapidly spreading across his face. He moved his hand to curl around the back of Mack's head, gently holding it in place. He moved closer and leaned down as he gently encouraged Mack to lean up, his eyes closing as he leaned to softly press his lips against Mack's. He brushed his lips against Mack's softly, his fingers curling into Mack's hair as his other hand moved to grip his waist. He kept his lips brushing against Mack's softly, feeling himself heat up and his blush get deeper.

"This is perfect..." he thought to himself.

You can't wake up, this is not a dream
You're part of a machine, you are not a human being
With your face all made up, living on a screen
Low on self-esteem, so you run on gasoline

I think there's a flaw in my code
(Oh, ooh-oh, ooh-oh, oh)
These voices won't leave me alone
Well, my heart is gold and my hands are cold

Are you deranged like me?
Are you strange like me?
Lighting matches just to swallow up the flame like me?
Do you call yourself a fucking hurricane like me?
Pointing fingers 'cause you'll never take the blame like me?

Mack could taste lemonade on Sed's lips, the same brand that Sed had brought from the store when they had first met. All he could think was that may just be his new favorite taste. His arms encricling Sed's neck, his fingers gently tangling themselves into the back of Sed's hair before he pulled away, gasping softly with a bright blush.

and yet, he didn't pull away. He didn't move his hands to sign, all he could do was smile. his eyes bright as he watched Sed, one hand still cupping the back of Sed's neck, his thumb tracing slow, gentle circles into his skin with his thumb.




I want it to be you, ooh
Diving into my ocean
A brand new emotion come true, ooh
Don't let this night, don't let this night go

How long 'til you play me the song
That will make me belong to you?
One dance with my baby tonight
And we'll dance 'til the night is through

The feeling of Mack's lips against his own was intoxicating, he had to hold himself back from chasing after them as Mack pulled back. He sighed deeply and moved his hand from Mack's hair to cup his face, thumb brushing across his cheek. He stared into his eyes and felt his blush deepen as much as it could go and couldn't help but smile. This truly was perfect.

"May I kiss you again?" oh how he sounded almost shy in that moment and when was the last time he had actually felt nervous like this? "Please say yes..."

Mack gave a soft, silent snort before he shook his head, pulling away and playfully reaching up, running his thumb across Sed's bottom lip before signing to him.

'Don't want to spoil my lunch.'

He moved to the small window that filtered light into his office, opening it with a soft huff, letting the pane swing outwards and the cool air rush in. He took a breath of it, trying to stop his head from spinning before he sat on his desk with a smile, grinning and inviting Sed to take one of the only two seats he had.

'After lunch? We can kiss as much as you want.'

There was a daring spark in his eye, a smile quirking with his lips.

Sedimus smiled as Mack ran his finger across his lip and resisted the urge to chase after it and place a kiss on it as it left. He watched Mack sign and blushed as the realization of what he said sunk in.

"Am I that sweet?" he asked playfully as he took a seat.

He reached into the bag and took out his own sandwich and drink before his eyes returned to Mack. He blushed again and smiled back.

"That sounds like a plan to me."

Mack let out a silent laugh, a grin gracing his lips as he leaned back in his chair, letting it prop up on the back legs before he began rocking himself slightly, seemingly thinking.

After a moment, he let himself fall forward to catch Sed's eye with a smile.

'You're cute when you blush. Cuter than usual, I mean.'

He gave a broad grin as he signed grabbing his own drink and sandwich, beginning to chew on it gleefully. After a moment, he placed the sandwich down, his mouth still full as he chewed thoughtfully before signing.

'So what made you want to date the greasy, tired mechanic you had only just met?'

"You're going to make me turn beet red."

Sedimus took a bite of his sandwich and chewed thoughtfully thinking over the day he first met the mechanic.

"Well the first thing I noticed was a man who knew his way around some fine machines, the second was just how good you look, all dirty and covered in grease and sweat. You looked so damned sexy and so masculine, I couldn't help but imagine you getting grease all over me..." He smirked lightly as he took another bite of his sandwich then a swig of his drink.

"But what really pulled me in was your personality. Your sass and your humor. And how direct you were with me. It's refreshing to have someone be upfront with me and not playing games. You were honest with me and demanded to be treated with respect and for me to put in effort to be in a relationship with you. It's nice to know that you won't lie to me in order to appease me over what you need and want. I knew I could trust you to tell me if I crossed any lines or hurt you, and to let me know what your boundaries are."

He looked into Mack's eyes and smiled softly.

"I felt that I could trust you to respect me and my wishes. I haven't been very lucky at finding people who I can trust to not take advantage of me. But I feel I can trust you. And that in and of itself would have been enough for me to want to have a chance with you."

Mack couldn't help his soft smile as Sed spoke. The gentle words and soft smiles made his heart cinch, even when Sed mentioned getting grease all over him.

He blushed slightly as Sed continued to talk, the faint grease stains on his face standing out against the red on his cheeks.

'I thought I was just being an ass.'

He let himself smile, looking down to the desk between them. He didn't know if he felt better or worse with it between them. He didn't know how to take Sed's words. He rose his hands, his brows furrowed before he let them fall with a sigh through grit teeth. He licked his lips slightly, his brow still furrowed as he thought, eventually his hands balling into fists and his knuckles turning white before he gave hard, choppy signs.

'How do you know you can trust me?'

He didn't mean it to look as. As dangerous as it did. He felt his hands moving, trying to explain himself.

'We've known eachother for barely a few days. We've shared a few meals. We've kissed once. You don't even know my last name. You barely know anything about me.'

He felt himself swallow as he slowly lowered his hands, sucking in a sharp breath that made the corners of his eyes sting with tears.

'What makes you think I can be trusted?'

Sedimus thought for a few moments, trying to pin down exactly why he trusted Mack besides just a vague gut instinct. Part of it was his honesty with him and another was he looked like the kind of person who had been hurt before like himself. Someone who appreciated honesty as much as himself. He took a chance at first but then when Mack cried in front of him he knew. No one had been willing to learn for him, no one wanted to give him a chance. Most people who go through that aren't looking to hurt others.

"It's a lot of things. Little things like your honesty with me. I admit I took a bit of a chance, because something told me I'd be a fool not to, but when you opened up to me when I came back and learned sign, I knew I made the right choice. It's hard to open up to someone like that, especially when they don't know you well."

He takes a breath and smiles sincerely, "I can tell you've been hurt before, maybe not in romance but in other ways. Most people like you, like me, when we finally get someone in our lives who shows us respect and decency, the last thing we want is to push them away or to hurt them."

Sedimus reached out over the desk to gently grasp one of Mack's hands and squeeze for a short moment before letting go for Mack to reply.

"But most of all, your eyes are kind, they're the kinda eyes that make you feel safe and warm. Like coming home. I don't know how to explain, but when you've been hurt by so many people you learn to read people's eyes. Just one look and you know if they're going to hurt you are not. Yours said to me 'I don't want to hurt you, but I'm afraid to get my hopes up in case you hurt me.' I know that look because I see it in my own eyes every time I look in a mirror."

Mack simply listened to every word, his head bowed slightly and his brow furrowed as his eyes traced the old patternsi n his desk. The whorls left from coffee cups, the fingerprints left from oily fingers. Marks of a life lived well, of serving its purpose.

For a long while, Mack through his entire purpose was to just be a mechanic. Maybe he was wrong.

He took a careful inhale, his fingers flexing slowly as he tried to think of what to say, of how to reply. How did someone even reply to something like that? It felt weak to just, thank him. That was all he could think of. A heartfelt, wholehearted thanks. A thanks for helping him see the good in people again.

Or at least, helping him see the good in one person.

'Thank you, Sed. I don't really know what to say.'

His hands were shaky, he could feel his want to cry again as he gave a smile, a silent chuckle, a soft sniff as he wiped away a wayward tear.

'Its nice to know not everyone wants to hurt me.'

That felt lame to say, and his hands sovered in the air for a second.

'I would never hurt you, either. I want you to know that.'

Now it was Sedimus' time to start to tear up. He was right to trust Mack and this only added more evidence to the ever growing pile Sedimus had began to shovel into his heart when they first met. He smiled and sniffed slightly to hold back a tear.

"I know."

His smile widened and he scooted closer to Mack wanting to be near him. He reached across the desk to touch his hand gently in assurance before setting his own food down on the desk and signing to him.

'I trust you. I know you won't hurt me. I know.'

A soft smile and then he got up to lay a soft kiss on Mack's cheek.

Mack smiled gently, tilted his head into the kiss to the cheek. Every time he saw Sed make the movements with his hands, saw ther evidence of how much care he had, for him alone, it set another spike throiugh his chest. Another pleasureable ache that put tears in his eyes.

He wondered, distantly, if this is what it felt like to be loved, to have someone do something just because they could, just because they cared for you, not out of expectation or demand. But simply because they wanted to.

It sent another spiral in his gut, another watery smile across his lips, and he found his fingers curled into themselves, finding nothing left to say. The motion of the press of his finger to his lips, an ask for a kiss as he tilted his head slightly with a smile seemed to say enough.
