Slow Dancing in a Burning Room
Chase had shown up late to rehearsal, again. "Late" by dancer standards, at least, which meant right under the wire, still pulling his hair back and only just starting his warmups when the director walked in, clapping her hands and calling everyone to attention and to take their places. They were about a month out from their production of Swan Lake, which was the ballet that was considered by dance critics to be their company's strongest production. The company director was trying to make this performance better than the years before, while still trying to finish securing the details of their next run. It was chaotic, and Chase thrived on it. Even as busy as he was with college, he wouldn't give this up for the world. In the studio, he was far more alive than he was in the classroom, even if he was taking it seriously. Medicine. Becoming a doctor. Not what he wanted to do with his life, but he couldn't afford Julliard teaching five year olds how to plie, even if he wishes that he could. His classes and rehearsals run rather tight together, and he knows that a number of the other dancers judge him for it, but Robert pretends not to notice.
Or it's the fact that he's slept with more than a couple of his coworkers. People get so jumpy about sex, about who's having it and who isn't. Chase likes sex, and he's never seen it as a bad thing, never really had the desire to hide his interest. Other people just lie about it.
Rehearsal isn't particularly remarkable, at least not in matters of routine. They start off in pairs, running through movements and lifts, contact and extensions, to the often repeated instructions of grace and evoking simplicity in movement. They work their way in broad strokes through the third act with their instructor tweaking arms and pulling legs and saying hold. The same as the past two weeks. They take a break, she pulls out a notepad and they start back on Act I, Scene I, reviewing sections she had marked in green pen. What was remarkable, at least to Chase, was seeing Greg in those black tights. He stared, not quite shamelessly. He looked away when the older dancer would look his way, watched him through his blond eyelashes. He had a boyfriend, more or less. There were very good reasons not to be looking. But he couldn't help himself, he never could, because there was just something about him, about the way that he looked, the way that he moved, and it caught his breath half the time, and it always made his pulse race. Chase was a little more awkward, a little distracted when he wasn't dancing. He walked into someone during a break when he went for his water bottle.
He tried not to be obvious, but that was one thing that the young blond was not very good at. Much like how at the end of rehearsal, when Greg went off to one of the smaller studios, Chase couldn't help following. Everyone else either wasn't interested or knew better. Either was likely. Chase was terrible at knowing better. He was young, impulsive, and pretty scant on self-control. So there he was, leaning in the doorway, watching, his things still left behind in the other room. House usually wore loose pants, and the man was gorgeous. Older than most, but he made Chase have to struggle to try and not get a hard-on in the middle of rehearsal.
It didn't always work. He wanted to say something, but he didn't want to interrupt, so he just waited, watched. Quietly lingering while he stared.
no subject
He won't be this mouthy when he's done with him, but at the same time he doesn't really mind the continued inability to keep his mouth shut. Nothing that Chase is saying has House questioning whether he wants to be here or not. He's just being a brat because he knows how. He's still reacting, body jerking as the spanks come harder, though not hard enough, not as hard as they could be coming. He's not squirming yet, but the sounds he's making giving away the fact that squirming probably isn't that far away.
Chase pushed, and House can't let that go. He has to push back. Chase's snide comment earns him a swift, harder spank that comes without warning, and another matching spank to the other cheek, like a quick punishment for talking back.
"I don't think you do know better... pull your tights down," he says, the tone of his voice leaving no room for argument but he's still watching, still looking for any indication that this is too much to ask.
no subject
He cries out, hard and sharp at the unexpected impact that's even harder, hard enough to take his breath away, to make him squirm a little when the second one impacts against the other cheek of his ass. It feels like punishment, and that brings an awkward smile to his mouth. And then there's that demand, and it hangs in the air for a long moment, Chase just blinking as he wraps his head around it. When he's finally nodding, he's wide-eyed, his face down as he reaches for the hem of his tights. He drags them down, catching the thick top of his dance belt in his fingers too, dragging them both down to the tops of his thighs.
It's more than House asked for, because under the sudden quiet, Chase is still pushing, even as he reveals the pink cheeks over House's lap.
no subject
And House is just staring, waiting as he does it, watching as his tights inch down, revealing his unevenly pink ass. There's a second he thought that Chase had accidentally caught his dance belt, but it's no accident. He honestly can't quite believe his luck, but he's got this feeling that it's just as much a push as it is an obvious, if really quite abnormal flirtation. As if any of this was really normal.
Chase is giving more than he asked for, like this is some kind of game of chicken, but with spanking. Whatever House gives, he asks if that's all he's got, and when he asks, Chase gives him more, like he's so sure he's in charge of this. Maybe in reality he is, because House would stop the instant he had the feeling that this wasn't okay, but in the game, House can't stand for this kind of behavior. So he spanks him again, hard enough to leave a ghost of the shape of his hand on his cheek and it rings loud in the room as the music hits the end of the playlist and stops.
"I just said the tights... I bet you think you're cute, don't you?" he asks, pushing right back, and he spanks him again, hard on the other cheek.
no subject
It's edging in toward too much, but not quite there yet. Or at least not so far in that Chase wants him to stop. But he's shuddering, squirming on House's lap, unable to help himself. It takes him a moment before he can find the words to answer, and it feels like a dumb thing to do, because it feels like House is baiting him, trying to get him to push back so that he can punish him again. Unfortunately, that awareness doesn't stop him from responding, and there's a hint of a laugh, strained though it is.
"You think I'm cute," Chase points out softly, and maybe it's not so much pushing as something else, something he's scared to talk about. And yet somehow it's easier with his tights around his thighs and House's hand slowly turning his ass red.
no subject
"Maybe from this side, at least..." but there's an obvious smile behind his voice that says he's fucking with Chase just because he can, and it says that the answer there that he'd left unsaid is yes, that he does indeed think Chase is cute, but he won't just outright say it.
"This side isn't mouthy..." and then comes another spank from another angle, layering blows over his ass so there's a mottled pink that's beginning to spread.
no subject
He could try and push back, say something about how House likes him mouthy, but he doesn't. He's pretty sure it wouldn't come out right, so he settles for letting the silence hang. But it's not the same quiet as before, he's not hiding. Instead, it's the sort of quiet that implies everything is too close to the surface.
That doesn't stop that jerk and the squeal, the way that he squirms shamelessly on House's lap when his hand spanks him again. His back arching a little, unable to stop moving as his ass starts to get physically hot to the touch from the impacts, the generous curves of each cheek now painted in a steadily darkening pink.
no subject
He stops, hand coming to lay gently on one hot cheek, and he's just rubbing slowly, aware that it's probably not making it better really, but he just wants to touch and feel the heat on his skin and feel him squirm. And really, any excuse to fondle that perfect swell of his ass. When he speaks, it's quiet, almost musing, like he knows but he's still giving Chase the opportunity to tell him and elaborate on it.
"When did you start sleeping in the studio?"
no subject
He whines a little when House puts a hand on one of his cheeks, the pressure of it, how his fingers rub at the heated skin is somehow almost worse, and the sound that he makes is almost a whimper, even as he leans into the contact a little. It burns more like this, but the feeling of House touching him is hotter, and he can't resist inviting him to touch more, so he leans into it. He wants House's hands everywhere, even if somehow that still feels wrong, even if there's no longer a neat reason to put to it. He just wants him too much.
There's that shocked inhale, that pause where it's clear that Chase is processing the fact that House knows, resisting the urge to counter by asking how long he's known, how he knew. "Since that night we danced together," he admits softly. There's a pause, like he's about to leave it there, but then he doesn't. "I... I thought I could stay with Brett, you know, just a couple days while I figured things out, and then he broke up with me and I just didn't have anywhere else to go," he answers softly, his voice quiet and small. He's a little self-conscious, a little awkward; more about this than about being naked from waist to thigh and hard from being spanked like the prelude in some straight porno.
no subject
Then Chase answers the question, and House listens intently. It's been days, as long as he'd figured it had been, and he's just about to ask why when Chase continues and House listens, eyebrows drawn together in a frown. He's not surprised that things had ultimately gone poorly with Brett, and he wonders what happened to cause the breakup and he's selfishly hoping that it was because Chase didn't want to sleep with him. It's not that he's necessarily wanting to be able to be his first, because truthfully he knows just how wrong that can go, it's just that he doesn't want the end of the story to be how heartbroken he is over Brett. Brett doesn't deserve that much emotion, not by a long shot.
"You can stay with me," he says. He doesn't elaborate, doesn't say that he's got a sofa that pulls out to a bed because he doesn't want to make it seem like he'd say no to sharing the bed. Fuck, maybe House is the one who's in too deep here. He'd spent the last few days with his thoughts drifting back to Chase in quiet moments, after all, thinking about him, wondering...
"Couple days, couple weeks, doesn't matter... it's a half hour travel time from here, but it's not the studio."
no subject
"I couldn't sleep with him," he says, almost in a rush, and a tremble that shivers through his body. "We.. tried a few times, but I always chickened out. I'd get scared. I didn't trust him, I guess, I could never let him touch me. And Brett said he wasn't interested in 'gradeschool hand-holding' so he broke up with me." He doesn't know why he's telling him about this, except that it frames the second part. The part that's even more frightening than talking about Brett and how things had gone wrong.
"You don't scare me," he admits softly, almost shy, a little timid. He swallows, tries to figure out what he's trying to say here, but he has only half a clue, and he keeps talking anyway. "I.. I want you. I think about you fucking me. That night, when you were, you know, touching me." His face is about as red as his ass, but he's not looking at House for a reason. "I don't understand why it feels okay with you when it never did with Brett. He was nice and sweet and funny. He was the kind of guy I've been having fantasies about dating and settling down with and adopting kids with once I can't dance classical ballet anymore since I was eleven and realized what liking boys more than girls meant."
He finally shuts up, curls a little onto House's lap, that hand against his heated skin somehow almost a comfort.
no subject
But he doesn't manage to get anything out before Chase continues, tells him he doesn't scare him and House stays quiet to listen. He rambles on, gets it all out in one rush of breath, and House can't help the little hint of a smile at what he says. Now isn't the time to tell him that Brett is not at all the kind of guy he wanted to settle down with, because the truth is that he isn't, either, and saying something now will hint that he thinks he might be, or should be. Instead, he quietly rubs a circle over Chase's sore ass, and just pats him gently.
"I think about fucking you, too," is what he finally settles on saying, and he feels as though there should be something else. Some explanation as to why Chase feels okay with him but not Brett, but it's nothing House wants to speculate on. So he fills the empty space with a spank, not quite as hard as before, but enough to smart on that bright, hot cheek.
no subject
There's a moment where he considers, debates between staying like this, letting House keeps spanking him, and pushing that subject, that comment. And really, it's no contest at all. There wasn't much chance that Chase would choose anything different, in honesty. He sits up, shifting, moving so instead of laying across House's lap, he's kicking his tights off one leg, and then straddling him. Sitting up and looking into his eyes, his hands coming up to catch on his shoulders with a hint of a smile as Chase tries to ignore his erection for the moment.
"Do you really want to fuck me?" Which isn't technically what House had said, but who's going to quibble the point?
no subject
Then he's moving suddenly, and House isn't quite sure at first why, whether it was a good sign or a bad sign, but that's made clear very quickly as he moves, slipping out of one leg of his tights and crawling into his lap instead of draping across it, legs astride him. House's hands find their way to his hips practically without thought, resting there both as an excuse to touch him and to keep him from slipping off. Chase may be ignoring his erection, but House certainly can't, not with how it's pressed between them and his own erection trapped neatly in his clothes, well behaved only by circumstance.
Rather than dignify that with an answer, House brings a hand up to catch him and haul him in for a kiss. Not a chaste one like the last time, like that one Chase had initiated, but one that easily reveals just how true the statement is. He wants to fuck him. He wants to take him home and strip him bare and learn his lithe little body until he can play him like a piano, take him from squirming pain to screaming pleasure as easily as changing keys. While that one hand loses itself in his hair, the other slips around to cup his warm and well spanked ass. As if there were any question left, there isn't anymore.
no subject
There's a brief flicker of surprise when House kisses him, not sweet and chaste and unsure affection like Chase had, those days ago. Instead it's hard and intent and full of smouldering intent. That kiss is an answer to his question, and Chase is responding, one hand coming up to slide up against the man's short hair, kissing him back. There's that faint way that he grinds up against him, his body asking for more, for what they both want, even if Chase hasn't actually said it, only implied it with all the subtlety of a two-by-four.
no subject
It takes a while, but he pulls back from the kiss and takes a deep breath before managing, "...this isn't the place for this..."
It's another few seconds of awkward, stumbling silence before he finishes the thought, fingers trailing through the strands of blond hair that slipped from the elastic hair tie. "You should come back to my apartment... we can pick up where we leave off..."
no subject
"Okay," he breathes, hot and murmured almost against the man's lips. "I want you," he says, as if it's something that even still needs to be said at this point. But he wants to say it, wants House to hear it, hear that he means it. And maybe that was the difference. That when House looked at him, he believed that he wanted him. With Brett, it had been almost less specific. He wanted someone. This was better, even if it was new and strange and different, and maybe not really a thing at all.
Chase was going to spare him the talk about how he wanted more than just sex, because they both knew that. It's been said, maybe not in specific, but well enough. And maybe he's a little scared that like before it would give House an excuse to try and stop. "Let me get some clothes on," he says softly, nuzzling a little into his jaw before starting to move away.
no subject
"Okay," he says, pressing a kiss to Chase's cheek before he pulls away to go get dressed. Very belatedly, House realizes he should change too if they're going to be leaving. He's not riding the subway like this. Finally, he's up and moving for his duffel, and he pulls out a rolled up pair of jeans and starts to peel his tights off.
no subject
Chase slowly, carefully, climbs down so that he's standing on the floor. His toe shoes come off, then his tights, and there's a wicked smile over his shoulder as he stands there for a moment mostly naked. Then he's moving over to his bag, and his underwear are every bit as risque as they had been the last time, except this time they're black. Low on his hips, edged in lace, and high and tight against his ass, and he's a little stiff, a soft whine as he pulls them on, the black lace a sharp contrast against the deep pink-red color of his skin. Then it's skinny jeans, and his black converse, and he's putting everything else in his bag.
His main concern here, is getting out fast. He just wants to be at House's apartment, wants to be naked again and feel House's hands on him. He wants him to fuck him, even if the thought still makes him a little jittery with that mix of nerves and anticipation.
no subject
And maybe he's caught Chase's eye as he starts to pull his jeans up and keeps his gaze as he does, not just unselfconscious but as shameless with his nakedness as Chase is. It's not that they're the same brand of attractive - they absolutely aren't. It's not about giving a free show, about knowing he's alluring (or accidentally being so without really trying) but it's another kind of push. It's an almost aggressive act, like with his jeans slowly dragging up his thighs, still half hard cock exposed, he's pushing for a reaction, getting Chase to give just a little bit more by where his eyes go and how long his gaze lingers. It doesn't matter that they've explicitly said they want to fuck, this is still a win in their back and forth game of challenge and push back.
He zips up, pulls on sneakers, and doesn't bother to change his t-shirt. He throws everything else in his duffel bag and closes it, and once Chase is all dressed and ready, he comes over to him and lays a gentle swat to his denim covered ass, and smiles, "Come on..."
no subject
He's dressed and looking back at House when the man catches his eyes, and now it's Chase that's watching, looking at him, leering at his half-hard cock and how he doesn't have any underwear on. The way that it's framed, erotic as he pulls his denims up and slowly tucks himself in, and Chase watches too intently and too long. He knows that this is losing, somehow, but that doesn't make it so that he can tear his eyes away. It isn't until House pulls up the zipper and starts working on his duffel bag that Chase gets his brain back.
He grabs his own bag, hooking the shoulder strap over his shoulder and he squeaks, with a tremble that runs through his spine when House swats at his ass. He straightens, flushed and nodding as he runs a hand through his loose hair. "Yeah, uh, let's go."
no subject
House leads the way in and up the short flight of stairs, and unlocks the door to let them in. Some time has passed, things don't feel quite so urgent once they make it in through the door, but that doesn't mean he wants him any less. He gives his duffel bag a toss into a nearby chair and hands his jacket up by the door and shuts it behind them.
"Livingroom," he says, as if it's not obvious. "Kitchen's through there, bathroom's down the hall, bedroom to the left." His hand finds Chase's and skims past it like he might be thinking about holding hands with him, but instead takes his duffel bag away from him and tosses it down on top of his own.
no subject
It's not quite so desperate, not quite so stripping down the second the door is closed that you see in movies, but he still wants it. He wants House, with an intensity that makes him flush as he looks at the man with a soft smile. He nods, letting House explain the layout of his apartment. He goes to catch his hand, but then House grabs Chase's bag instead, tossing it with his own, and the blond smiles a little awkwardly. He wants to ask if he's sleeping on the couch, but he skips it in favor of catching a hand in his shirt and tugging, trying to steal a kiss, or, well, encourage House to share one.
"Thanks."
no subject
He's teasing, but the charade doesn't last long before his hands are on him, and he's giving in, not just kissing him but walking him back up against the nearest wall. Maybe it's cliched, the kind of shit you see in movies, but he can't keep his hands off him and he doesn't think that Chase minds. One hand slips up beneath his shirt and brushes along his belly and up his side, slow and teasing as he deepens the kiss.
no subject
He wants him, he wants this. He wants the kisses and the touching and more, he wants all of it. He maybe even wants the spanking, which had been hotter than he'd imagined, even if it smarted after, made sitting on the train burn, impossible for him to sit still. He presses into the kiss, holding onto House, and it's already turning him on all over again.
no subject
His hands skim back down and he's groping Chase's ass, knows that it's still raw from the spanking earlier, but that doesn't seem like it's remotely going to stop House now.
"Y'wanna see what you think?" he asks, kissing Chase again and trying to draw him closer, trying to urge him up, get him to curl around his body so he can carry him off. He guides him up, a hand beneath the swell of his ass as the other hand urges his leg up, pulls an arm around his shoulders.
"Come on... let's go check out the couch..."
