godd the whole conversation before the kiss was tense as hell I could cut it with a knife OUGHH
"I didn't..." Quinn starts, pressing his lips together in thought. Benjamin's brain starts up again. See? He didn't want to do it, you made him— "I didn't mean it. Not like that, at least. You're not—I mean, you are, or at least you're… trying to be?" Even Benjamin's brain can't keep up with that. "Dude. What?" - the way I cackled and it's like midnight and I have to stay quiet, esp needed after so much spice~
Quinn scoffs, but it's small and pained rather than pointed and mean. "It went great. Like, actually. It was good. We had tea. I met... Arthur. We all chatted. It went well." - quinn meeting his dad,,,,, I wanna cryyyyy/pos
As if he's trying to keep a straight face, Quinn raises an eyebrow and smiles slightly in amusement. "Come on, Benji. Use your big boy words." - fucking love me a man who sasses like it's his job
'one last time's kill me I love them so much and that whole section is DELICIOUS but oughhh
"I'm good."
His voice is still oddly calm. Benjamin frowns. "Good?"
He puts on his other shoe, even though it feels like it just dropped. "Yeah, I'll just shower at the house."
The water keeps running, a surprisingly calm backdrop to this absolutely baffling interaction. "You're walking? Now ? It's like... past ten."
"I don't mind," he says easily, looking for his denim jacket. He still hasn't looked at Benjamin. "Don't worry." - this kills me :((
benjamin and isabelle are talking through it,, AND OLIVER INVITES HIM TO FAMILY THANKSGIVINGG
95%. Pretty good odds. - CACKLING
"I hate you so much."
"I'll live." - I love them
with that it's 1am and I'm barely half way, so I'm coming back to this fic in the morning~ SO much fun so far!!
no one can argue like these two, man!! and no one can sass quite like quinn hills fr <3 im glad youre enjoying so far!! looking forward to reading ur thoughts tomorrow :]c
OLIVER IS A REAL ONE!! also arthur hills the man that you are,,,,,
Quinn pulls off of him—thank god, because he doesn't want to deal with any teeth-related accidents and the most mortifying possible reason to end up in an ER - THE WAY I CACKLED
“Ah,” he says sagely. “A tree.”
Quinn looks up at him, slowly pressing his lips together. Benjamin’s lips twitch upward. Quinn’s shoulders start shaking.
They burst out into full-bodied laughter, wheezing hysterically. Benjamin tries to muffle at least some of it with his hand, but Quinn is cackling, his forehead pressed against Benjamin’s leg. They barely manage to contain themselves before they make eye contact and lose it again, giggling like complete idiots. - I fucking love these idiots <3
Benjamin gives him an enthusiastic thumbs up even though it feels like the unsexiest way to give consent of all time. - AKSJDSAD
B&O kiddies conversation is making my day rn I love them so much
“Mhm!” He knows things. He’s intelligent. He almost has a doctorate. It’s not like he needs a ten year old to spell out his feelings for him. “I’m so good! Why would I be freaking out?” - I love benjamin so much omg
OPEN AND HONEST COMMUNICATION BAYBEEEEE
Quinn grins, his eyes squinting and full of mischief. Benjamin feels like maybe, finally, the timing worked out just the way it was supposed to. “Why don’t you make me?”) - I LOVE THEMMMMM THE TIMING FINALLY WORKED OUTT IN HIS FAVORR
