That damn nickname put the absolute goofiest smile on Collins' face, his eyes taking on a dreamy, lidded look as followed Tez into his small bedroom, naked and still damp from the shower. When he reached the bedroom, his eyes fell on Tez as the other man climbed onto the bed and lay back. Collins' expression melted into something softer, a warmer smile spreading over his features.
"Hey," he murmured, like it needed to be said, walking closer and half sitting on the edge of the bed. He leaned and touched his hand to one of Tez's ankles, rubbing a thumb over the jutting bone there, then flushed as his eyes started to wander. "I've... I think I said it before, but... I've never had sex with another guy before. I'm--I'm ready to try. I want to try to make you feel good, I just..." He trailed off, embarrassed at his own words, and brought his hands up to rub at his face for a moment. "I might need some... gentle direction, yeah?" he laughed, breathless with excitement and apprehension and an unbridled happiness that he didn't quite know what to do with. He paused, then blinked his eyes wide. "Oh! Oh, before any of that, though..."
He shuffled over to the bedside table and pulled out a bottle of lube, which looked suspiciously half-empty, like it had been used somewhat liberally lately. He didn't seem to take notice of it, or feel the need to speak for it, though--too caught up in the moment. "I got this," he said with a grin. "Oh, fuck, condoms--I'm clean, but, I totally have some somewhere, uhh, hang on, hang on..." he murmured, starting to get up.
