Summary:

“Oh please, Abolish, is this really necessary?” Scott protested mildly, as Abolish pointed the gun to his forehead.

“Asking nicely clearly hasn't worked,” Abolish hissed lowly in Scott's ear, “You’ve gotten sloppy again, and people are beginning to notice. If you and the rest want to stay here, you need to be careful.”

Chapter Text

“Oh please, Abolish, is this really necessary?” Scott protested mildly, as Abolish pointed the gun to his forehead.

“Asking nicely clearly hasn't worked,” Abolish hissed lowly in Scott's ear, “You’ve gotten sloppy again, and people are beginning to notice. If you and the rest want to stay here, you need to be careful.”

“I thought I was being careful!” Scott protested with a whine. 

Really, he'd only killed one person this year. Who really cared if a couple more turned up at the hospital than usual, surely humans didn't care about small things like that.

“Enough of that. If you don't start blending in better, I'll have to-” 

Abolish stopped abruptly. Scott didn't need to wonder why. He could hear voices, approaching from the entrance to the alley. There was nowhere for the two of them to hide before they were seen.

“Drop the gun.” He muttered under his breath, but Abolish was already lowering it, giving Scott a “you-better-not-bat-away-right-now-or-I-will-shoot” look. 

The voices were drawing closer, and Scott only had a second of thought for how to disguise what was very clearly not a friendly conversation.

“Forgive me, Abolish.” He murmured to the shorter man, before leaning forward and pressing his lips against the others.

Abolish jolted for a moment, pulling back, before understanding dawned in his eyes, and after a moment's hesitation, he leaned back in.

Scott may have only been doing this as a cover, but that didn't mean he wasn't intending to enjoy himself while he was at it. He smoothly flipped the two of them around, so that it was Abolish who was against the wall. 

He pinned Abolish's hands against the stone, pressing their bodies almost flush together. Abolish responded by opening Scott's mouth with his own and sliding his tongue in.

If Scott wasn't an experienced man, that might've been the moment where he made a noise. As it was, he choked back a small moan at the feeling of Abolish's tongue in his mouth. 

He softly bit the man's bottom lip with his fangs, careful not to break the flesh, but pressing hard enough to get a gasp out of Abolish. 

Scott broke the kiss first, only to tilt his head down and kiss the side of the man's neck, under his cross earring. Abolish let out another small noise.

It was at that moment that Scott wondered what the hell he was doing. How had he ended up in this situation: pinning Abolish Veylocke to a wall and kissing him senseless? And why was Abolish just as enthusiastic as he was?

Abolish must've noticed his pause, because he too froze for a second, before he pushed Scott's hands off his wrists and slipped around him to peer down the alleyway.

“It's empty.” He remarked blankly.

Scott looked too. “So it is. Guess you made out with me for nothing, then huh?”

He had been expecting Abolish to snap back with a warning or reprimand, but he just straightened his cuffs and ensured his gun was properly hidden before glancing at Scott through his eyelashes.

“Oh, I wouldn't say it was for nothing.”
