snack

Summary:

“It’s not working, you know,” Shin told Neo, marvelling at how steady his voice sounded.
A pair of slender arms draped over Shin’s shoulders. Miw’s breath tickled the side of his face as she shrewdly declared, “Sure it isn’t.”
Exasperated affection fizzing beneath his skin, Shin laughed. “You two planned this!”

“What are you doing?”

Neo turned his head slightly to shoot Shin a cheeky wink. “Just getting a snack,” he drawled.

Shin affected nonchalance even as his heart raced at the sight of Neo stretching in the smallest crop top he could have found.

As Neo reached up towards the highest shelf—an action his height made completely unnecessary—his top rode up, revealing even more of his midriff. His abs stretched taut and Shin ached to trace them with his tongue. Golden skin glistening with stray beads of sweat in the late afternoon sun, Neo was a work of art.

“It’s not working, you know,” Shin said, marvelling at how steady his voice sounded.

A pair of slender arms draped over Shin’s shoulders. Miw’s breath tickled the side of his face as she shrewdly declared, “Sure it isn’t.”

Exasperated affection fizzing beneath his skin, Shin laughed. “You two planned this!”

With a dull thud Neo placed a jar in front of Shin. He reached across the bar to gently flick Shin’s nose. “You need to relax. I baked these special for you.”

Neo pulled out a cookie and held it at Shin’s mouth. But before Shin knew it, Miw had swooped forward and taken a large bite, crumbs littering Shin’s shoulder.

“Miw!” Shin whined, brushing off the bits of cookie, “Watch it.”

“Early bird and all,” Miw said through a mouthful of cookie.

Neo and Shin groaned in unison.

Shaking his head at Miw’s antics, Shin reached into the jar to pull out another cookie. He fixed Neo with a questioning stare. “Are these…?”

“Remember how much fun we had?”

Shin found himself grinning at the memory of that nebulous night. He took a bite of the cookie, holding the rest out for Neo. The bastard grazed his teeth over Shin’s fingertips as he snatched the cookie up with his mouth.

Having had enough of their games, Shin yanked Miw into his lap, kissing her open mouthed and filthy while Neo watched.

Through hooded eyes Shin saw Neo vault the bar in his urgency to get to them. Shin sighed into Miw’s mouth as Neo pressed up against Shin’s back. Drawing back slightly, Miw pulled Neo down into a kiss. Shin felt his pants tighten in anticipation.

“Now for the real snack,” Neo murmured in the sliver of space left between the three of them. Which only served to make Shin and Miw burst into laughter.

“Aw no, that was so hot,” Shin consoled a sulking Neo. He craned his neck to kiss the pout off his face.

“Right,” Shin heard Miw wheeze, “That wasn’t lame at all.”

He reached forward to blindly pinch her thigh which earned him a swat to the chest.

“What am I supposed to do with the two of you,” Neo joked, pulling away from Shin with his hands on his hips.

The gleam in Miw’s eye screamed trouble as she danced into Neo’s personal space. “Have your wicked way with us,” Miw paused dramatically, “Daddy.”

Neo’s face instantly scrunched up into disgust. Shin guffawed.

“I’m leaving,” Neo threw his hands up before stalking away towards their bedroom. Shin and Miw followed hand in hand, still giggling helplessly.
