Alexei spoke to him, and his stomach did flips because damn, that was incredibly attractive. Matt stood there for a moment, looking like an idiot with his mouth hanging open before nodding.

"O-okay."

The guest room wasn't even referred to as his roof by Alex. Was that indicating the sudden shift in their relationship? He wondered.

So, he pushed Alex into his bedroom, following him into it and staring at him before having the right mind to close his door. Because how awkward would it be to have pokemon just show up all of the sudden when they were uh...

Doing whatever was about to happen?

"What do you want me to do then, Alex?" he said, going to sit on the bed.

What the fuck was this side of Alexei? Even at the hot spring, he was never this dominant and in charge. He hadn't called him a bitch or anything before. Matt was almost frozen in shock and awe.

However, his brief moment was over when he was kissing him again, pushing him over on the bed and tugging at his shirt.

When did it get hot in here, he wondered.

Matt shifted his arms to pull it over his head and discard it away on the floor somewhere, throwing his arms back around Alexei's neck to kiss him again. This time, they weren't suffocating in the heat like they had been in the sauna. And while it was rushed, they didn't have to worry about an audience.

At least, not concerning other people.

"Where was this earlier?" he teased him, lowering his hands to Alex's shirt so they'd be on somewhat even ground.

"I don't know. I thought you were kind of into the idea," he said with a snort, coming to kiss his jaw as he touched his chest freely. "You had to admit, it was a little bit exciting, trying not to get caught in there."

Well, it was to Matt, at least.

He paused, leaning back to let Alexei get a good peak. He raised his eyebrows, waiting to soak in the compliment. "Better? I was thinking hotter was the word you'd use, but I guess I'll take it," he said with an eye roll.

"What, embarrassed now that you can't hide in the steam?"

"I told you that I did, didn't I?" he said, snorting. "You had to relieve tension sometimes, right?"

He reached to help him take off the bandages, laying a few kisses along his scar as he ran his hands over the other's arms.

"Ah, you said it." He chuckled, allowing him to marvel at his body. "A noodle? Then I'll just have to slurp you up." Yikes. That was a bad one.

Matt tilted his head to the side, exposing his neck further for him to do as he pleased. "Are you showing people what's yours?"

Matt gave him a serious look from the side of his eye, reaching to play with some of the pale locks of Alex's hair. "I'm giving you permission to do it. Come on. Have your way with me, Alexei."

Perhaps that was a dangerous thing to say, but boy, he wanted it.

Matt reached forward to push him back on the bed, climbing over him. "Yeah? What about it?" he asked, reaching to undo his pants.

"Who said that I didn't want it?" he challenged him, giving him a defiant look. Of course, Matt was very into all of this. Alexei taking control was amazing.

"It would be selfish. But I don't care. It's real right now, isn't it?" he said, running his hands over the other's chest.

"What are you going to do, Alexei?"
