Work Text:
Kai has been more clingy to Damon ever since they became roommates again but lately, Kai cannot seem to leave Damon's side.
In the mornings, Kai switches between leaving their room to get breakfast anywhere between five minutes to one hour after the morning announcement to make it so no one can accurately guess exactly what time they will arrive.
Whenever Damon wants to eat something, Kai insists that he make him food himself or they make it together so they know it will be safe.
Whenever Damon needs to interact with others, Kai comes along with him because while he is not the strongest, he is certain that having one other person there will deter the other person from trying to harm Damon if that was their intention. On the off chance that Damon wants to interact with someone else, Kai will deter him from doing that.
Damon likes being around Kai, but his concern is a little suffocating. He knows why he is like this though. If it was the other way around and Jean tried to kill Kai, Damon would act similarly. Kai is being quite lenient actually, since if Kai almost died, he would insist that Kai does not leave their room unless absolutely necessary.
When he thinks about that, he wonders if he should stay in their room too and give Kai some comfort. After all Kai looks the happiest when they are in their room together. He happily lies next to Damon on their bed like right now, holding his hand as he talks about whatever comes to mind. How he always manages to come up with something new to discuss will never not be fascinating.
It is getting late though. Damon wants to take a bath. He says so to Kai after he is done his story.
As usual Kai says, "I can help."
Not even being in Kai's bathroom is safe enough. Kai would join him in the bathroom and watch him take a piss if Damon allows him to. Usually Damon says no, but when he looks into Kai's hopeful yet pleading eyes, he says, "Ok."
Kai's eyes widen in shock, but he quickly recomposes himself and follows Damon to the bathroom. He wordlessly begins preparing the bath. There is not much for Damon to do, so he begins taking off his clothes.
He has taken off his cardigan, vest and shirt and is about to take off his pants when Kai turns around and says, "Damon the bath—"
Damon stops, just having undone his button and unzipped his pants. He sees Kai's eyes focusing on his chest area. "Yes?"
Kai's eyes snap up. he turns to look at the bath. "It's ready so come in when you're ready…"
"Thank you."
Kai does not reply. He turns his head to look away from the bathtub when Damon, now naked, enters it. When Damon is comfortably inside, he taps Kai's head. He looks at him this time but his eyebrows are furrowed and he frowns in that way he always does when he is focusing on something. Damon bites back a smile.
"Are you going to stay here until I'm done?" he asks.
"Obviously," he says, his voice sounding strained. "Unless you want me to leave."
"You can stay." He looks around, and he finds the shampoo. He begins reaching for it, but Kai takes it for him.
He puts some shampoo onto his hands. He scrubs his hands together and he tells him, "Close your eyes."
Damon closes his eyes, and he feels Kai's hands run through his hair. He is firm but gentle. If he opens his eyes, he is sure he will see Kai still looking at his face and making a point not to look down.
He hears Kai chuckle. "You're like a doll. So pretty and you'll let me do whatever I want with you won't you…"
Damon's heart skips a beat. He opens his eyes, and he sees that Kai is done. He leaves and washes his hands in the sink before he comes back. Damon watches him.
When he is back, Damon asks, "Since you want to help, do you want to put the body wash on me too?"
Kai leans back. "I don't know if that's appropriate…"
"It's not appropriate that you're here."
Kai mumbles something incomprehensible.
Damon points to where the body wash is. Kai gets it, but he hesitates about opening it. Damon takes it from his hands. He has Kai open one hand with his palm facing up, and he puts some shampoo onto it. He takes ahold of Kai's other hand, and he has Kai rub his hands together.
"I know why you want to take care of me so badly," Damon says, looking at Kai. "I understand why you feel that way."
Kai takes a deep breath. He looks uneasy but he still meets Damon's gaze.
"Do you like being in control?" Damon asks.
He shrugs. "If I could control like everything, we wouldn't be in here right now, but if I could only control what happens in this killing game… Jean would've never gone anywhere near you or your food."
He nods. His words feel as if they were something that would come from a childrens show, but he says them anyway. "But you can't control everything. You know that right?"
"Obviously."
"But you're still trying to control me and my actions."
"I just want you to be safe," he hurriedly says.
"I know. I'm alive, and I'm as healthy as anyone can be in here." Damon moves his hands to rest on top of his chest, right above his heart. He feels his heartbeats quicken at feeling Kai's touch onto his bare skin and when he sees Kai's eyes focus downwards, he knows Kai feels it too.
Kai looks up. "S-so am I supposed to not wash you or…"
"I don't want you to worry so much for me," Damon says. "It's nice but you don't need to stress yourself out over this so much."
Kai frowns in confusion. "So right now, am I supposed to…"
This is something he has started suddenly without preparation. He can only say, "Get it out of your system now."
Kai's face becomes unreadable. Damon removes his hands from the top of Kai's. Kai's hands remain where they are for a moment before they move to Damon's shoulder. His touch is careful. For a moment he wonders if he can close his eyes like how he did a moment ago, but he is fully awake when Kai's fingers go back to his chest and tug harshly on his nipples. A hiss comes out of his mouth as his body lurches forward, a hand falling onto Kai's arm to steady himself.
Kai rubs his fingers over Damon's nipples more softly like it is an apology. With Damon's head closer, he moves his mouth closer to Damon's ear, "I'm sorry Damon, but I don't know how I would live without you. If Jean managed to kill you, I would kill myself."
Damon shudders from how easily the words fall from his mouth. "Don't say that…"
"It's the truth. Damon, I never felt so happy with anyone before. You make me feel things I never felt before." Kai's hands drift from Damon's chest to his hips, embracing him in a hug. The water is still warm but Kai's hands feel a lot warmer.
With how close they are, Damon has to fight the urge to move Kai's hands to between his crotch. He takes a deep breath to try to steady himself. He bites his bottom lip when Kai squeezes his hips.
Kai laughs humorlessly. "I feel like such a creep… I told myself I could handle bathing you, but I'm already distracted."
"I-it's fine…" Damon's hands clutch Kai's shirt. He can feel himself getting hard. He wonders if Kai notices.
One of Kai's hands rub his back. "You're cute like this, naked and clinging to me…"
"Kai…"
"Yes, Damon?"
Damon does not know why he had started talking. "Never mind…"
Kai sighs. Damon feels his breath against his skin, and it makes his hair stand on end.
"You're so pretty, smart and talented…" Kai leans back. He tilts Damon's head up. "Please don't ever leave me…"
Damon's breath catches in his throat. He closes his eyes as Kai's lips press against him. He barely processes the softness of it before Kai bites his bottom lip. He gasps, and Kai's tongue finds his way inside. Damon wraps his arms around Kai tighter.
When Kai pulls away, he asks, "Was that ok?"
"It's a little too late to ask that," Damon replies.
"But was it?"
"Yes," he says without hesitation. "And… you don't have to stop there…"
Kai nods and looks up. "Wait your hair still has shampoo in it. I'll wash it out for you."
Damon is forced to sit there while Kai uses the detachable showerhead to wash the shampoo off. Feeling his fingers thread through his hair should be a comforting action especially with his eyes closed, but Damon keeps thinking of where those fingers could be instead. From the chuckle he hears, he knows Kai has finally looked down and sees just what he is doing to him.
The water stops. Damon keeps his eyes closed, and he hears the showerhead being put away. He feels Kai's presence grow closer, and he feels his heart quicken. He shivers at Kai's finger slowly drag up his arm.
"Am I too controlling?" Kai asks.
"No," he answers.
"Are you sure? I want to make you as happy as you make me, so if you're unhappy with something…"
"I'm happy." As happy as someone can be in here.
Kai's hand wraps around Damon's neck. Damon squeezes his eyes shut tighter and tilts his head up. He waits for him to apply pressure, but he never does. His eyebrows furrow. If he only wants to hold something, his hand could go much lower.
Kai's hand lets go of him. Damon peeks out, and he sees Kai closer than before. Kai kisses his neck before sucking. One of Kai's hand is placed on his shoulder, and his finger rubs small circles onto his wet skin. Damon sighs shakily. His hands clench into fists as he tries to ignore his dick demanding attention.
"Kai," he mumbles.
Kai smiles with his lips pressing against his skin. "You're so needy. Just for me…"
His hand falls from his shoulder to his nipple. He pinches, much gentler than before, and earns a soft moan from Damon.
"You sound so cute too," he says. "Say my name again."
"Kai…"
"Again."
"K-Kai," he stutters when Kai twists his nipple.
"Gorgeous," Kai mutters. He tilts Damon back and he leans over the side of the bathtub to place his lips over the nipple he just twisted. Damon places his hands on Kai's shoulders and he sighs at feeling Kai's tongue flick over him and gently suck. Imagining where else his mouth can go makes his face flush, and the need to touch himself grows more.
This is starting to be too much. If Kai touches his dick even once he may come almost immediately.
Kai leans back. One hand holds onto Damon's face and tilts his head up. The other hand is placed on top of Damon's thigh, so close but just far enough from Damon's dick. His thumb circles his inner thigh. Damon's hands remain on his shoulders. He feels his face become warmer when the direct eye contact Kai makes lasts too long.
"You're so easy," he says, softly laughing. "You should see your face right now. So handsome…"
With how close Kai's face is, Damon tries to close the gap between them but Kai pushes him back. A pathetic whine comes out of his mouth.
His thumb presses against his bottom lip. "I think I like you best like this. You really want me?"
"S-so much…" He squirms under his unmoving gaze. His voice is so close and his smile is so sly. He does not know if he is relieved or not at how he does not look away. He needs to come so much…
"At least you're patient." Kai kisses him. Damon whimpers when he pulls back before the kiss can deepen. "Are you close Damon?"
Damon nods. "Kai please…"
"Which one would you like?" he asks. "Would you like it more if your dick was in me? Or would you like it more if I was pounding inside you?"
Damon whimpers. "Kai I'm about to…"
"About to what?"
"You know what…"
"I don't actually."
Kai's grip on his thigh grows firmer. Damon tries to breathe slowly. Kai's hand that was on his face goes down to his neck and he squeezes lightly. Damon's mouth falls open and his breathing becomes shallower despite his best efforts.
"You would look so pretty with my dick inside you," Kai says, still looking directly into his eyes. "You would be so loud and you would look at me with the same expression right now. You would look so beautiful…"
Damon bites his lip. He just needs him to continue for a little longer…
"You would feel me going so deep inside you," he says. "You're so smart, but making it so you become so desperate that the only thing in your pretty little mind is me filling you up with my come, making sure you can never leave me… Are you thinking of anything other than me right now?"
"Kai," he moans, "I'm close…"
"Already? I haven't even touched you that much," he chuckles. "Fuck Damon, you're going to drive me crazy."
Right there.
One more thing.
"Kai please, t-tell me…"
"You're so hot when you beg for me."
Damon comes. A feeling of lightness overtakes his body but when the lightness is gone, he is aware of the bathwater having gone cold, the water droplets still on his body, Kai's warm hands on his body and Kai's gaze on him. He ducks his head, making Kai remove the hand on his neck while Damon covers his own face.
Damon feels Kai pulling him closer. When Damon is much closer, Kai wraps his arms around him. One hand lightly strokes his hair. Slowly Damon lets his hands fall away from his face and onto Kai.
"I really don't want to lose you," Kai mumbles. "You mean so much to me. Who am I if you're not there?"
"I'll always be here," he promises.
"I know. And… thank you."
Damon hums and moves closer to him. The water is still cold now and he feels like he is not any cleaner than he was before, but he has not felt so at ease in a while that he cannot bring himself to care.
