Summary
Dating someone with difficult-to-read cues and unexplained baggage was incredibly frustrating for Martyn. Ren had been better for him, and to him, than anyone he'd been with before. He was falling so hard for long brown hair and pale blue eyes that it almost scared him.
Almost.
He wanted this to be so much more, and yet, he'd never dream of pushing Ren beyond his comfort zone...but so sue him if he had his fantasies. Yet when they held hands, Ren was always so tense, and when they kissed, Ren would find some way to keep Martyn's touches from wandering, and it could never get past this brick wall halting the vines. Vines with all the roses and thorns that Martyn supposed comprised him at this point. When he sees Ren slipping off down a side alley after his boyfriend had claimed he was going to visit family for the evening, his concern drives him into pursuit.
Pursuit to a place he didn't realize he needed to see and a view beneath redstone circuitry lights he never understood he'd been waiting for.
{In which Martyn falls for Ren figuratively and literally, Ren gets several safety lectures, and at least the redstone circuitry brings out the blue in his eyes.}
