… gentle dom Lúcio meeting gruff sub Gabe who was never expecting someone younger (and shorter) than him to know the first thing about being a dom, let alone doing it so sweetly? He’s used to aggressive doms that abused him in the past. Lúcio’s the complete opposite and makes Gabe feel like an inexperienced teen all over again, confused and just… wanting to make this strange, beautiful man smile.

They meet in a club and Gabriel thinks Lúcio has confused him with one of the doms like so many others before him. He’s used to it because he doesn’t really make an effort to look cute or especially submissive. (actually he just stands against a wall in his black ripped getup and scowls  like it’s a chore to be there and not like he made it a conscious choice to spend money on getting in. he’s a goober that way).

It takes him half the evening of trying to get the kid to fuck off to understand that he had made the wrong assumptions about Lúcio just the way people did about him.

He wants to laugh him in the face (ok. he absolutely laughs in his face) and tell him that he should first get out of diapers before trying to dom anybody his caliber but Lúcio isn’t dissuaded (isn’t even angry at the diaper comment) and keeps asking to buy him a soda and if he has someone steady and if he would even be interested in a scene with him.

And Lúcio is cute ok? not even Gabriel Reyes can withstand those pretty brown eyes.

Long story short: he gets snappy and self-conscious when Lúcio categorically crosses out any hard pain play and is like ‘Dude, it’d be our first scene. and I really just want to pamper someone? Like wash you and let you kneel for me and stuff?’. Gabriel thinks he’s trying to fuck with his head. Like he’s making fun of him or something.

They end up having three very strange coffee dates where Gabriel is the biggest, meanest asshole ever but lets Lúcio buy him everything and tell him again and again and again what he was thinking about doing because he couldn’t believe that the kid was being real.

In the end he finally agrees just because he’s curious. Lúcio is like two heads shorter, he’ll be able to overpower him easily if things happen to go south (which is his usual way of picking out partners these days: whether he can put them on the mat in three seconds or not. it’s safer that way)

but then he realizes that the kid actually was real and is just as sweet and jovial during a scene and Gabriel thinks that will never fucking work like… ever. he needs a lot of sharp pain and hours of playing to get good and out of his head. 

BUT OOPS SUDDENLY HE’S IN SUDSY WARM WATER AND JUST LISTENING TO LÚCIO’S VOICE WITHOUT PARSING THE WORDS AND TURNS INTO HIS HANDS WITH SOFT LITTLE MEWLING SOUNDS AND HOLY SHIT WHAT HAPPENED
