WHO Shannon Vaughn (
privatematter), Eli Delacroix (
aspectional).
WHAT Eli is an idiot; Shannon is curious. How exactly does D/s go down when you're not to the Having Sex stage in the relationship yet?
WHEN Late 1990. Seven months after Jumpscapades.
WHERE Shannon's place.
Shannon was anxious. Not in a bad way, but the anticipatory way that everyone got when something new and exciting was going up and there was no way it could go badly, but predicting the end outcome was almost impossible. It was a great feeling, but one that left Shannon feeling like a teen heading out to prom instead of a grown man getting ready to have fun with his boyfriend and potentially make some hilariously heartfelt gestures to express his trust in Eli. That was probably something he didn't do enough in general, actually.
Breakfast had been something simple. Pancakes, fresh cut fruit and sausage. Eli had come over pretty early to get ready, talking over the generalities of what they were going to do while the specifics were to wait for after they were done. Well, now they were done and sitting on the couch, and Shannon's leg was jiggling even under the hand he had placed on his knee to keep himself still. Lacey had wandered off after breakfast, stomach filled with her own food and presumably was napping on the foot of the bed in Shannon's room. Probably for the better, really.
"So," he said, ignoring the obvious tell he was giving off. If Eli took it for misapprehension, then Shannon was going to definitely lean over and smack him. "Where do we start?"

no subject
The chatting was nice. Catching up on relatively meaningless gossip and work shenanigans was part of the routine, soothing and regular. Shannon could feel the thrum of something underneath Eli's demeanor, and simply laughed aloud when he launched into their actual reason for getting together that day. Beating around the bush must have been killing him.
"Thought you said I wouldn't get to if I didn't behave," Shannon said while quirking a brow. After their scene had ended, he'd gotten the distinct feeling that it not going all that properly counted as not behaving. "Or was that just something to get me to settle down at the time?"
