(A/N) DESPITE THE TITLE, THIS IS NOT SMUT. SAW THIS IDEA ON THE TUMBS. okay bye.

Nico grabbed his bags, giving me a grateful and apologetic look. He tossed three dufflebags in the back of my minivan, then hopped in the passengers seat.

"I'm sorry for bothering you," Nico whispered, twiddling his thumbs and looking down sheepishly. "It's not permanent, just until I can find a place."

I sighed, rolling my eyes. "You can stay as long as you want, I need the company."

Nico smiled. The first smile I'd seen from him in a while. "You have five cats, Will. You have plenty of company."

"Yeah, but I could always use another fluffy friend." I gave Nico's nose a soft boop, making him giggle.

Damn, I loved that sound. Like some fucking god-fried oreos, dipped in the whippiest of creams. With chocolate sauce.

Except better. 

"So," I said, starring at the road, "mind going over what happened? Didn't get much context from a few hundred texts of you apologizing and begging to come pick you up."

"My parents kicked me out," Nico huffed, crossing his arms tightly over his small chest. "I showed them my pierces," he pointed to the lip and eyebrow piercing, and nodded his head for emphasis on the tapers in his ears, "they threatened to kick me out if I did anything else crazy. So, I told them I was gay, deciding that the situation couldn't get any worst." His voice was monotone, he was hiding his emotions. I hated when he did this, but I knew he'd tell me when the time was right.

He gave me a side look. "The situation did get worst, though. As you can see, they gave me two hours to pack and leave. Not before slamming against a wall and demanding me never to come back."

Nico rubbed the back of his head, wincing when he touched it. Must be tender there.

"Your parents don't deserve you," I grumbled, glaring at the tender spot on his head. "Fucking idiots don't deserve to be in your presence. Being pissed just because you're gay and punk. Punk people are hot! And adorable! Assholes shouldn't be mad!"

And I continued talking shit about his parents for the rest of the ride.

Nico was laughing by the time we walked in my apartment. I sat down two of the three dufflebags in the living room, Nico following up with the third one. "My dad is a slut? And my mother is a no-good cock-whore?" Yes, bad insults, I know. I could've done way better, but it got Nico laughing. And that was all that mattered.

"You know," I said, thinking things through, "I should be your new dad." Nico chuckled at that suggestion. "Yeah!" I exclaimed more confidently now, "I'm your dad now. And your mom! Both! Your... dom... WAIT, SHIT, NO!"

At this point, my smol punk friend was bent over, drowning in laughter. I was crazy red, but I got Nico to laugh. And laugh hard, so it didn't matter the joke was at my expense.

After a few minutes, the laughter died down. I hoped this whole thing was over, because I was red red. And everyone knew my color was yellow. Red just didn't work. (I am a fashionable gay, okay.)

Nico walked up to me, placing his hands on my chest. His eyes were hooded by his eyelashes when he looked up at me.

"Daddy?"

"NO!" I yelled, pointing a finger and wagging it at this little bastard. Nico only started laughing again. "NICO I WILL NOT HAVE MY BEST FRIEND CALLING ME DADDY! YOU CAN CALL ME FATHER."

"So..." Nico gave me a small smile, "you aren't my sugar daddy?"

I growled at him. "I'll beat your ass if you say anything like that again."

I could tell Nico was holding back some howling laughter at this point. "Have I been a bad boy?"

"NEEKS, STOP!" I was laughing too at this point, but I hoped to sushi rolls and blanket burritos that he didn't make a habit out of this joke.

"But my color is green, Daddy," he whined mockingly. Okay, who the fuck taught this kid about BDSM?

I groaned, slapping my palm to my face in frustration. "I need a boyfriend. Then you'll see how much of a twink you sound."

Nico only smirked. "What if that's what I'm trying for?"

My eyebrows went up in surprise. "You're what, now?"

His eyes shot to the floor, as he shrunk smaller. "You heard me...."
