(what is supposed to happen in between the gap, still a draft!!!)
****
Rex kept his arm around Toby and wore that consistent warm smile, the one people adored him for. He had seen Toby's type before and had a fair idea of what was going through the kid's head. The anxiety and nervousness, as well as what he was wearing, he had to be a virgin. It always surprised him just how eager they became after a few drinks and some dirty dancing. It was like Déjà vu, the routine worked every single time, a new boy on his arm every weekend as proof.
What more could I want? He thought, and kissed his latest catch on the forehead, the boy's arms wrapped around him to return the affection.
"Nearly there" Rex announced and he felt Toby's arms tense.
They retreated as the taxi came to a stop. The boy sat beside him with his hands on his knees and gave Rex his space as he found his wallet to pay.
"There's a coffee shop a few blocks up" Rex said as he fished a few extra dollars out of his wallet.
"Hey thanks, I know the one you mean" the driver nods and accepts the notes.
It was all part of his plan, a little generosity to show he was sensitive. He could feel Toby's gaze regarding him as he opened the door to the cab.
"You have a good night" he nodded to the driver before he turned to face Toby who was still sitting in his seat obediently
"Are you going to come in?"
The question startled the kid a little more than Rex thought it would, he didn't think he would be that naïve. Rex rested his arm on the roof of the cab and ducked his head inside, Toby shivered lightly as the cold night entered the car.
"ah..." The kid mumbled. Rex retreated to the curb and nodded
"another time then?" Rex smiled as Toby's eyes went wide and frantic for a brief moment
"Wait!" He called
Toby slipped out of the car and once again was by Rex's side, No one ever really wanted a first date to end. Rex wrapped an arm around him, that thin hoody would barely shield him from the cold.
"Try and ignore the mess okay?
Toby smiled in reply and happily embraced Rex's arm once more as they approached Rex's home. It was a cheap, suburban, single story house; the kind with leaky taps and a stained carpet. Rex knew the sluts loved it, it was so sleazy. Only his closest friends and stalkers knew about his downtown apartment where he really lived but it was easy for him to appease them and keep them quiet. The mess and the entire place had a voyeuristic feel to it, like they weren't supposed to be there. Toby swallowed.
"I never thought a dancer would live in a place like this..." He murmured
Lies and possible answers poured into Rex's mind like the water finally bursting out of one of the broken taps in the bathroom
"We don't make THAT much money" he began
"I wish I had someplace nicer to take you" He looked down, apparently ashamed and vulnerable.
"Don't worry Rex, it's actually kinda cool" He replied with a sheepish grin.
"I'll show you around then, just, ah... Imagine it's snow and follow my footprints"
Toby tilted his head, confused. Rex grinned and lept over a pile of clothes and lord knows what else. Toby giggled constantly and followed along with Rex's melodramtic moves. Rex didn't even have to pretend to look silly. With anyone else this probably would not have been necessary but virgins loved his games. They were designed to distract kids like Toby from the reality of the situation, that Rex just wanted to take his virginity.
"And here is the...uh, Kitchen!" Rex announced "I think" he added.
"It's pretty messy" Toby laughed.
"That's an understatement" Rex said, looking at Toby with his trademark smile.
"Maybe I'll help you clean sometime?"
"Maybe I'd like that" Rex nodded.
Rex gave him a kiss on the cheek. Virgins were always so sweet, it had been a while since anyone had offered to clean like that.
"I'd kinda miss the mess though, even you admitted it's 'kinda cool' right?" Rex imitated Toby's voice and the kid beamed
"You could be an actor" Toby mused
"Then this place would really be a dump, you know how much actors get?"
"No?" Toby raised an eyebrow
"Less" came Rex's curt reply
"Oh" Toby looked down but Rex just smiled and lifted his head from the chin and kissed Toby once again
"Dancing is a lot of fun though, maybe I should teach you?"
"Teach me? Oh, I don't know" Toby shifted on his feet, Rex could tell he was self conscious
"Just one routine" Rex chuckles
It was another game for Toby to play. He wouldn't realise the he was taking his clothes off, or even that they were heading to the bedroom. If asked he would have replied that it was the cleanest room in the whole house and they would need space but Toby merely followed as close as he could, as if he didn't want him out of his sight
Perfect Rex thought to himself
"This'll make for a good stage"
Rex gestured to the double bed, looking to Toby, who was blushing hotly before he climbed onto the bed. In an instant Rex was a star again, not a poor dancer like the house would make him seem
"Watch me, I'll go slow at first"
Rex sung softly, a rhythmic melody that began one of his routines. His hips moved to an imagined bass line, his hands tracing his body like it was a musical stave, from shoulder to opposite hip. He winked at Toby as his paw gave a soft tug downwards at his denim cut offs.
"You could be a singer too!" Toby chuckled as Rex repeated the moves a second time
"Maybe... You want to try?"
Toby blinked and hummed the melody as best as he could remember it, before he tries singing it like Rex Did
"The moves" Rex chuckled "The moves
"Oh...Sure!" Toby replied.
He joined Rex on the bed, no doubt to hide his embarrassment at the mistake he made. Toby faced where he had been standing. He glanced back at Rex briefly before he composed himself in an attempt to mimic Rex's face when he was on stage and be professional. Rex had hung a mirror on the door, apparently to watch himself as he practiced, so he would know how he would look on stage, Toby was staring intently at his reflection.
"Aren't you going to watch from the crowd?" He asked
"No" Rex murmured, moving in behind Toby "I'm going to teach you"
Rex sang the song again, placing his hands over Toby's guiding them gently. He felt the kid tremble, though his soft vocal rendition of what was normally a seductive rock song would keep him calm. Rex glanced at the mirror, which was only really there for him to make sure Toby looked comfortable as the routine progressed.
"I think I'm getting the hang of it" Toby said with a soft sigh
"Yeah you're a natural" Rex nodded and moved his hands away to let Toby practice on his own.
"Well... they say we're born this way" Toby chuckled. Rex raised an eyebrow and shook his head softly
"hmm... maybe we are" He smiled and paused for a moment, considering what Toby had said, before he continued with the lesson
"Here's the next part"
"Okay"
The song's melody continued and Rex's hand moved back to Toby's. Rex could tell Toby was one of those people who never thought he was very attractive, until now, when he was in a bedroom with another guy's hands all over him. He could see the confidence growing in the kid's expression it was nearly time to make his move. His hand stopped Toby's as it was above the zip on his hoody.
"Take it down... slowly" Rex murmured into his ear
Toby did what he was told. His hips swayed and that zip creaked as it was dragged down, tooth by tooth in time with Rex's song. Beneath it he wore a snug-fitting black tee that was probably the gayest thin the kid owned, it was a size or two too small.
"Should I practice that again?" Toby asked
"I think you did just fine the first time" Rex replied
Rex's hands went to Toby's hips and the kid flinched but Rex's hands remained. They slowly began to lift Toby's shirt, his fingers glanced against Toby's bare skin, the kid reacted as if they were white hot. Rex could feel the kid shiver and lightly kissed his neck to calm him
"I-is this part of the routine too?" Toby stammered
"Yeah" Rex replied with confidence "The guys on the floor go crazy for a two man act"
"Reaaally?" Toby muses softly to himself
"Especially if my partner is as hot as you are" Rex smirks, lifting the shirt over Toby's head
"Wha...?" Toby blinks, Rex turned him around and looked Toby face to face
"What? Nobody has ever called you Hot before?" Rex asked with a coy smile, Toby shook his head
"What about sexy?"Rex tried, Toby shook his head again
"Hmm... Well don't ever let anyone tell you you're not alright? You've got my seal of approval."
Rex smiled and kissed Toby full on the lips, in case his words weren't enough to make the kid believe he looked good though if anyone else asked he'd say Toby was a six out of ten, above average. He was cuter than most but the virgins he took home always were. Most of the time Rex had his regulars and the other dancers and even Marcus to entertain him, though that was only one time. The virgin was all about the thrill of the chase. He caressed the kid's cheek softly.
"And was that a part of it too?"
"Maybe" was Rex's reply
He carefully lowered Toby onto his back, laying him down on the bed. Rex sat on top of of him and pulled off his own tank top. He leaned down and pressed his chest against Toby's kissing him again to distract him from his hand, which moved down and fondled Toby through his jeans
"R-Rex..." Toby whimpered
"It's okay, Relax Toby"
Rex knew Toby would be happy to hear him say his name and it seemed to calm the kid down slightly and Rex was glad. Sometimes it would take a lot more than the tour and the lesson to get them onto his bed but Toby was still so nervous. Rex kissed Toby's cheek, neck and shoulder but he could still feel the Kid's gaze locked onto him.
"I'm not sure I want to" Toby murmured quietly
"Don't worry..." Rex replied, caressing Toby's cheek softly
"D-do all of your two man acts end... like this?"
"No, of course not" he replied with a frown
"I...would like to believe you" Toby looked away "Are you lying to me?"
"No" Rex shook his head
"I should go..." Toby swallowed "I don't think I'm the kind of guy you think I am"
"What do you mean? Why?"
"I'm a virgin Rex" Toby replied
Rex sat up and letToby have his space back. The kid sat up and the two of them sat side by side on the bed in silence. Toby hung his head like he was to blame, like he was the one who lied. Rex put a hand on his shoulder and patted it softly.
"That's... Okay Toby" Rex said, to finally break the silence.
"I should have told you" Toby shivers
"I knew" Rex said
Instantly regretting those words as soon as he said them. The first rule: Never come clean. Those words caused another silence between them and Rex kicked himself mentally, one slip up could cost him everything. Toby raised his head and glared at Rex.
"You knew..." Toby murmured
"I didn't think so at first but..." Rex trailed off
"You knew and you kept going?"
"You seemed okay with it" Rex frowned lightly
"I... I know I did but is THIS okay?" Toby asked, raising his voice
"What do you mean thi-"
"This!" Toby interjected "Taking me home and continuing to feel me up even though you knew!"
"I thought you would have wanted it to happen this wa-"
"No!" Toby exclaimed, almost sounding slightly hysterical "H-how could you have thought that?"
"It's okay... we can still do it if you want" Rex tried
"Get away from me!" Toby cried out.
Rex had never seen anyone gather their clothes so quickly. He chuckled softly as he heard the front door slam as Toby left. It was the first time he had blown it in a long time, somehow he almost felt refreshed as he heard a taxi pull up and take his catch away back home to safety
"Damn...Oh well...It was worth a shot" He snickered
