Chapter Text
Kevin turned around, his eyes went wide as he saw a young man who was tall, with dark hair right in front of him. He wore a blue t-shirt with a funny logo on it, and a dark denim jacket over the top. His blue jeans were rolled up to show the black leather boots he was wearing. His jaw was sharp, and his eyes were bright and piercing. Kevin realised he was one of guys he saw earlier when Veronica made the gang bangers shut up.
“Not so tough without your beard huh?” The young man said, his voice was deep.
There was a short pause before Kevin spoke “I don’t need her to be a beard.”
“C’mon then” The young man said as he smirked. The young man grabbed one of Kevin's arm pulling him away from the concession stand. Kevin ended up in a small alley between two buildings, there was a chain link fence at the end of the two buildings. Kevin got lightly pushed against the wall of one of the buildings making him drop the popcorn spilling it along the ground, the can of cherry cola rolled away as it hit the ground.
“What are you going to do then, hit me?” Kevin asked his teeth gritting as his anger was rising. He was waiting for a punch to the face or stomach. Kevin knew he could throw a few punches and defend himself if he needed to. The young man stepped forward, his harsh gaze turning into a gentle one. He whispers “No, I'm not"
Kevin's heart starting beating faster in his chest, he suddenly forgot how to breathe when a pair of rough lips met his in a rushed kiss. The young man pulled away from the kiss and gave Kevin a gentle smile. Kevin breathed in the scent of the young man, he smelt of musk that had a slight sweet scent to it, and a sparse smell of cigarettes lingered on him.
"Is that okay?" The young man whispered. Kevin leaned forward and kissed him again. Kevin felt hands move to his waist pulling him in closer as the kiss deepened, Kevin could vaguely taste buttery popcorn and Dr Pepper on the other man's lips. Kevin pulled away from the kiss. “I have to go” Kevin whispered, as he thought of Veronica and Cheryl waiting for him in the truck. He can hear the movie still playing in the background but he’s not paying attention to it, he’s only paying attention to the young man with the piercings eyes in front of him. The young man nodded and stood back letting Kevin walk away from the wall. They were now standing in the middle of the small alleyway. He pressed another kiss to Kevin’s lips, Kevin cupped the back of the young man’s neck pulling him closer, making the kiss last longer. Kevin grabbed him by the waist pulling him closer as the kiss deepened. Kevin felt the chain link fence hit his back and he got gently pushed up against it.
Kevin’s hands ran through the dark hair of the young man, now making it an array of messy locks. Rough lips pressed hotly against his smooth ones, one hand was holding onto the lapels of Kevin's tan jacket pulling him into the kiss, the other hand was gripping the fence making it rattle behind Kevin as his back was being pushed into it. The young man's hips pressing into his own. Kevin let out a soft moan as the young man started to kiss and gently bite down the side of Kevin’s neck, Kevin moved his hand under the man's jaw tilting his head up to kiss him again. The young man softly bite Kevin's bottom lip making Kevin part his lips slightly letting the rushed kiss deepen. A denim clad thigh slipped between Kevin’s legs, rubbing against his hard on that was already straining against his pants.
“Oh god” Kevin whispered breathlessly into the young man’s mouth. Kevin pulled away from the kiss, he removed his hands from the other man's dark and now tangled hair and gently pushed him away by his shoulders.
“Okay, okay, this time, I really need to go” Kevin says breathlessly while smiling. The young man smiled and leaned in kissing Kevin once again, his hand was scrunching up fabric of Kevin’s jacket the other still gripping the fence behind him. Kevin placed a hand on the young man’s chest gently pushing him away again.
The young man leaned back “I’m Joaquin, by the way” he said as he moved both of his hands onto Kevin’s chest, running his hands down the line of the jackets zipper.
“Give me your phone” Kevin said, Joaquin quickly handed his phone over. Kevin fiercely entered his number as Joaquin leaned into him. “This is my phone number, use it” Kevin says as pushes the phone into Joaquin chest. Joaquin grabbed his phone back and looked at the phone number.
“Kevin Keller” Joaquin said in a low whisper. He raised his head looking back into Kevin’s eyes.
“As, as, as in Sheriff Keller?” He stammered disappointingly.
Kevin shook his head a little in disbelief “Is that a problem?” He asked. Joaquin looked down to the ground, and leaned away from Kevin. He bit his lip and pushed one of this sleeves up, revealing the two-headed snake tattoo on his forearm.
“Is, is this a problem?” He stammered nervously, looking at Kevin. Kevin looked down and saw the South Side Serpent tattoo on Joaquin’s forearm, his eyes wide.
“I won’t tell if you won’t tell” He said after a small pause, his eyes gazing from the tattoo back to Joaquin’s face. Joaquin’s smiled and grabbed the lapels of Kevin's jacket pulling him closer for another kiss. Kevin's fingers instantly found there way to the dark messy locks of Joaquin's hair. After a moment, Joaquin pulled away from the kiss, he let go of Kevin’s jacket and stepped back unpinning Kevin from the fence.
“You better go, don't want your beard getting worried” Joaquin said teasingly with a smile on his face, Kevin laughed at him shaking his head a little.
"And you better call me” Kevin said still breathlessly with a smirk on his lips. Kevin placed a chaste kiss on Joaquin’s lips as a goodbye before walking past him. The can of cherry cola, gummy worms and the spilled popcorn lied abandoned on the ground as Joaquin left the alley way just after Kevin.
When Kevin gets a text from Joaquin later that night, he couldn't help but grin.
