Happy Birthday to Lucien

[gabe_bryan]

Lucien's birthday. Gabe finds the day taking him by surprise, struck as he is by the sudden realisation of how much has happened between them in what is a relatively short time. This time last year he hadn't even known the other man, and now, here they are, and he feels as if he's known Lucien forever. He feels as if they've always been like this,

It's been a long time since Lucien had a boyfriend for his birthday, and now, as he enjoyed the aftermath of a morning blowjob, playing with the arms on his new keyring, his brain can't help pointing out that there's still Christmas and Valentine's day to come. It's a bit selfish, but he indulges himself, enjoying being spoiled and thought of and looking forward to other big dates with anticipation.

"Okay." He nods and sits up, his hand cupping around the keys and enjoying the weight in his palm. "Should I come straight from work, or should I come back to shower first?"

"Whatever you want, baby."

He leans over Lucien and gives him one, last, kiss on the lips before rolling off the bed and heading into the bathroom.

"Just let me know when you'll be there so I can get there on time, OK?"

"We'll see what the day, and patients, want to throw at me then..."

He stretches out into the warm patch the Gabe left behind, even turning over to bury his face in his pillow for a moment before stirring himself and getting up. He's promised to go to his parent's house for breakfast with Eli before work.

"Okay, I'll text you when I finish. I'm looking forward to seeing the work you've been doing on it. I'm sorry I've not been over to help you out more."

"Don't be stupid, if you start saying shit like that I'll have to start apologising for not pulling more money in."

Something he already does feel incredibly uncomfortable, and sometimes guilty, about.

"And - "

He takes one last look in the bathroom mirror, rubbing the remains of moisturiser into his skin, before pulling Lucien close to him again.

"We can't have a domestic over money on your birthday."
