Room 524, Monday Afternoon

[selfhelphero]

Billy had always been a fan of low-key birthdays - a little cake, some presents, and that was about it. He'd only had one class today, so now he had all afternoon to do whatever he wanted to celebrate being sixteen. His parents had come through with a bunch of different gift cards, since it was easier for him to pick out what kind of geeky things

Well. After Billy had come by to celebrate Topher's own birthday last month, Topher could hardly have let Billy's go by without acknowledging it. Especially since now they were in kissing territory, and that seemed to entail some degree of birthday-celebration. Just going by what he'd seen in movies, of course.

So here he was, holding what looked like a metal box of sorts to his chest when he came to knock on the door.

"Hey! Happy birthday."

Billy wasn't going to judge Topher's timing, because he was a little busy appreciating how nice it was to be doing this. It wasn't that he'd worried that Topher would never want to kiss him, but, well, considering the flailing from the first time this happened, Billy was going to appreciate it happening again.

That... wound up being longer than last time.

Which was... good. Definitely really good.

"Happy birthday," Topher managed breathlessly when he drew back.

Look, that had been really nice.

That had been very, very nice, and Billy couldn't think of anything better Topher could have gotten him. "Awesome choice in presents, I have to say."

"Good to know this was a smarter choice over a robot that can make coffee," Topher decided. Still a little breathlessly. Hush.

...

"Want to do it again?"

[selfhelphero]

"Absolutely," Billy said, not waiting for a response before leaning in to try to kiss Topher again. What could he say, he really liked getting to do this.
