“Alright, man! Sounds good!” Kris grinned at the thumbs up from the girl behind the sound board he’d been getting to know for the past few months - Shayne, with her half-shaved multi-colored head, and so many facial piercings Kris lost count.
He pulled off his headphones and walked into the booth, watching as she already started tweaking some of the recording, her giant headset covering one ear as she smiled at him. “There’re a few things here and there, but overall, dude, you rock.” She glanced between him and the screen a few times before she started smirking. “Oh… I see where your mind is at. Thinkin’ ‘bout the hubby, lil’ Krissy?”
He smacked her hand away when she pinched his check and laughed. “He’s not my ‘hubby’ yet.” He shrugged when he settled into the seat to watch her work. “No, we just have a date tonight and before we left he said he had a surprise for me so…” He kicked her when he saw her smirking again. “Get your mind out of the gutter, Shay.”
She snickered. “Oh, yeah, I’m sure that wasn’t exactly where your mind was at when he said that.” She snapped her fingers at him and pulled her headphones back onto her ears. “Face it, boy, you are completely transparent and when it comes to Adam the Great you are so fuckin’ see-through it’s hilarious.”
Kris rolled his eyes; she was completely ridiculous, but he absolutely loved her. He knew he’d gotten so lucky when they’d met and she was all on-board with working with him. He rolled his chair around behind hers and settled his chin on the back to watch the screen, listing to the song playing through the headphones loud and clear.
Adam huffed as he stretched out; he’d been sitting there for the past hour and a half listening to Tommy and Monte argue about… something… Either way, it wasn’t doing his anything any favors.
LP glanced over at him from where his head was resting on top of the keyboard in the room. He grinned and lifted up. “Guys, I think Adam’s getting a little antsy.”
Adam felt himself blushing when all three of them looked over at him and grinned. “Um…”
Tommy chuckled and nodded to the door. “I’m sure Kris is waiting for you just as patiently, Ad. You can go if you want.”
Monte chuckled as Adam reddened even more and stood up. Adam huffed at them. “You guys are asses.”
He heard a “You love us!” as he was moving out the door and smiled to himself. He’d been ‘patiently waiting’ to see Kris again since they parted ways that morning, he should’ve figured with Kris on his mind the entire day he’d get some teasing from the guys about it. Especially since he seemed to be completely transparent when it came to Kris.
He took a breath once he was back at his car, and checked the messenger bag over his shoulder to make sure everything for that night was still there, then took out his cell to call James and call in a few favors.
Okay… Everything’s all packed up and ready to go… Adam smiled to himself as he looked over the pile of suitcases in the trunk of the car, feeling excitement bubbling up inside of him because, finally, it was going to happen, this weekend and… he could not wait, but first…
He chewed on his lip for a bit, then pulled out his phone, sending off a text to his mom, dad and Neil about his plans, a little reminder, and then… he’d have to call the Allen’s and make sure they got the tickets in the mail. And finally… He grinned. He’d be getting Kris, and then they’d be off to the airport. And Kris was probably going to hit him, or something, but… he’d take his chances. He did do all that for me. It’s my turn to repay the favor. He grinned. Besides, Kris always did say he wanted to go there someday.
He tapped his phone against the palm of his hand, looking down at the time; their flight was a couple hours away, he should probably start heading over to get Kris. He slammed the trunk closed, made sure everything was all locked up and he didn’t miss anything, then ran back downstairs and swung into the car, heading back to the studio to get his fiancé/very-soon-to-be-husband.
“What are you planning?” Kris gave him the best glare he’d seen from his lover yet. “I saw those bags when I put my guitar away. Seriously Adam…” He glanced around before frowning some more. “And we are definitely not heading back home…”
Adam grinned. “You’ll see babe.” He glanced over at Kris for a moment to wink at him, chuckling when Kris smacked his thigh in response. “It’s a surprise.”
Kris huffed and crossed his arms. “It better not be a surprise that’s going to last too long, we won’t have the time. I have to be back in the studio in two days.”
Adam smirked. “It’s all taken care of, love.” When they stopped at a red light, Adam leaned over to give Kris a quick kiss. “Don’t worry about a thing. Just relax.”
“Well…” Kris sighed and settled back into the seat. “Okay, fine.” He crossed his arms, a smile saying ‘I’m just going to humor you’ spreading across his face. “Just know that if this is some huge, over-the-top thing, which I’m pretty sure it is, I’m so going to hit you.”
Adam grinned and turned back to the road as they started moving again. Worth it.
“What. I…Adam!” Kris’ mouth hung open as they walked out to into the airport in New York, then he broke into a smile and smacked Adam in the arm, fixing his carry-on on his shoulder. “What are we doing here?”
Adam grinned, guiding Kris over to the baggage claim with a hand at his waist. “You’ll see soon, babe.”
Kris rolled his eyes at him, but we was still smiling as he waiting by the claim. After a few moments passed by, he dropped a hand from the strap of his bag to lace his fingers with Adam’s and squeeze. When Adam glanced over, Kris leaned up to give him a short peck on the lips. “Thanks. For whatever it is.” He shrugged. “It’s too much, but… thank you.”
Adam beamed. “No problem at all.” He traced circles in the back of Kris’ hand as he brushed a few fluffy brown locks back. “Anything for you.”
“Love you…” Kris snuggled in, watching the carousel of luggage, finally standing up straight again when he saw their things coming up. After they’d gathered everything up, Adam noticed the curious look he was giving him and shrugged.
“You’ll see.”
Kris rolled his eyes at him, but leaned right back into him, their hands clasped together over the bag slung over Adam’s shoulder as they walked out of the airport.
“So…” Adam could practically hear Kris fidget as he set things up on the bathroom counter in their hotel room. “When am I going to find out what’s going on?” Adam smirked at the impatient tone in Kris’ voice. Payback for all his scheming.
When he decided he was satisfied that something wasn’t going to topple off of the counter, he walked back out, seeing Kris working his lip between his teeth and picking at the comforter. He leaned against the wall and smiled to himself; he could see the shy little boy who had captured his heart nearly a year ago, anxious but excited and he could see little giddy twitches in his lips and hands. Love him so much…
“You’ll see soon enough.” He grinned at Kris’ pout, then giggled when he crossed his arms and slumped back. “Come on, I wanna take my sexy fiance out and show him off.”
Kris huffed, smiling a little as he stood up. “That’s all I’m good for, I guess.” He sighed. “Just arm candy for-Eep!”
Kris giggled when Adam wrapped him up in his arms, then yelped again when he dug his fingers into Kris’ sides and started tickling him. “Ahh! Okay okay! Stop! Pleeeease.”
Adam grinned victoriously when Kris flopped back across the bed, catching his breath. He leaned over the smaller man, smirking at him. “I win.”
Kris pouted, before he grinned and leapt at Adam pressing their mouths together, his arms coiling around Adam’s neck. After a moment, Adam broke the kiss, bursting into laughter when Kris’ fingers found a ticklish spot on his shoulder. Kris used the opportunity to pull him down onto the bed, moving himself over Adam’s hips and pinning him, a huge grin on his face. “I think… I win.”
Adam pouted. “Fine, fine.” He wiggled his hips around under Kris, making Kris rock back and forth over him. Whoa, okay, nope, not good for me. He bit his lip when Kris continued rocking, grinning at him. “Stop…”
Kris hummed before he shook his head. “Nope, I don’t think I will.”
He ground his hips down, making Adam moan and drop his head back. “Unfair…”
“And when have I played fair?” He leaned down, licking over the stretch of Adam’s throat, swirling his tongue around the bump of his Adam’s apple. Adam shuddered and dropped his hands on Kris’ hips, panting as Kris continued mouthing at his neck and started working at his jeans.
Maybe a night staying in wouldn’t be that bad… He moaned when Kris’ warm hand touched his over-heated skin. Nope, not bad at all…
