Please follow these steps: 1. Walk to the nearest intersection 2. STOP BEFORE STEPPING INTO THE STREET 3. DO NOT TRY TO PET ANY DRAGONS YOU MAY SEE 5. Locate the pole with street signs on it 6. Take a picture and send it to me 7. Request assistance for steps 1-5 from a passer-by if necessary
[ But JJ does eventually comply, though he doesn't particularly like receiving orders.
There's another length pause before Cain finally gets the image that he's looking for: street signs at an intersection, and JJ's thumb a blur in the corner. ]
[ In the movies, it would be raining in this scene for maximum romance.
But it's not raining, just mildly chilly, and JJ is, miraculously, sitting peacefully on the side of the road, nose stuck to his phone like a typical Youth. Being shirtless probably isn't helping his condition any, though at this point it probably can't make it worse, and there's goosebumps all over his skin, over the thick black of his tattoos.
[ Sup. Sup. That's what Cain gets for all his efforts?? Not even some rain and puddles to dramatically splash through? What kind of knock-off Hollywood romance rp is this!!!
Luckily, Cain knows exactly how to salvage the situation, since JJ is obviously perfectly fine.
He lifts the phone clutched in his hand and snaps a picture for later blackmail material. ]
You actually drew on the abs... [ He says it with clear disbelief, shaking his head, but even as he does, Cain pockets his phone and shrugs off his outer layer jacket thing. Once he's got that draped over JJ's naked shoulders, he tries to pull JJ to his feet. ] Come on, up you go, time to get you back home.
[ Wow, this seems so familiar... Surely it's not going to turn into a pattern or anything... ]
[ That's about all JJ can muster, even though he does mentally whistle and think smooth as hell when he drapes the jacket over his shoulders. If he were some lovesick girl, he'd definitely sleep with this jacket while revelling in how gentlemanly Cain is.
Unfortunately, he's just an ordinarily sick boy, and he's unsteady as Cain hauls him up, taking a few seconds to gather his bearings before he's tossing one arm over Cain's shoulders and burying his nose in the crook of his neck. ]
Cain. [ His voice is whiny. ] Am I still hot? Do you think people still find me hot?
[ It's probably for the best that there's not going to be any mooning over jackets, because at that question, Cain finds himself about three seconds away from elbowing JJ in the ribs.
Forget how intimately JJ has situated himself, wrapped around Cain, cold nose stuck against Cain's neck. Forget how JJ's breath is tickling every time he speaks, or even breathes. Forget that even out in the weather shirtless and ridiculous, JJ feels amazingly warm all pressed up against Cain's side, pleasant if not for how Cain's well aware that's probably because of fever. Forget all of that, because Cain can't believe he's traipsing about and using his smooth jacket moves on such an idiot. ]
Yes, JJ. [ Aggrieved, and Cain heaves a sigh as he grabs JJ's wrist and wraps his other arm around JJ's waist. It's both to support JJ and make sure that JJ can't go wandering off again. Really, maybe he should be buying a leash... ] I'm sure people still think you're hot. You're breaking hearts left and right out here, we should get you inside for all the girls' safety.
[ A slow smile spreads over JJ's face at the affirmation. Compliments are a surefire way to lift his mood, even if he'd had to drag them out, and even if they don't sound sincere in the least. Cain's fingers tickle where they settle over his waist, a flush that's not entirely fever related settling over his cheeks, giddiness following from the sensation of just being close to someone.
He doesn't deal well with loneliness, and can't help the way his fingers curl into the fabric of Cain's shirt. ]
I don't want to be a heartbreaker. There shouldn't be anything heartbreaking about finding someone attractive.
[ He tilts his head up to look at the sky, though his vision is obscured mostly by Cain's hair. ]
It's just about providing eye candy. Like... charity.
[ Cain can't even finish the exclamation, not when JJ sounds so sincere. A sincere crazy person. He finds himself laughing, all the aggravation of having to chase JJ out here fading away. It's so ridiculous that it's endearing, and Cain finds himself tugging JJ a little closer, smiling at him, shaking his head, letting their bangs brush together in his amusement. ]
I see, I see, you're a true philanthropist. But that means you have to take care of yourself or you won't look your best, right? So back home and to bed with you~

[ When Cain comes sprinting along to that corner, is JJ still going to be there...? The million rupee question. ]
