“You know, they have clothes in New York. You don’t need to take four of those,” Ben insists, waving at a pile of similarly-colored shirts on Xander’s bed.

“Baby, I’ve got this. Relax.”

“Why don’t you just wear those stupid boots on the plane? That’ll give you more space for–”

“Benjamin.” Xander puts down the jeans he’s folding and takes Ben gently by the shoulders. “I’ve got this. Really. Go sit down or something.”

Ben looks at the suitcase, the window, at the knife on the nightstand. Anywhere but Xander’s face.

“Okay,” he says, thrusting a bag of hair care stuff at Xander’s middle. “Here. I’ll go watch TV for a while.”

He can hear Xander’s sigh as he leaves the room, but he doesn’t look back. Tomorrow is the day he’s been dreading. They’ve both been dreading. Xander’s been back and forth between LA and New York for weeks, but now he’s moving there for real. Ben doesn’t want to think about it, so he’s pushed it to the back of his mind all week. The fact that he was the one who encouraged it just makes it sting more, but what else could he do?

Ben mentally kicked himself. He smiled, trying to joke it off. “Hell, no. Besides, I think my mom would kill me if I broke up with you. I didn’t mean sex stuff, I just thought…on the internet, a lot of couples have arrangements where the Dom can, you know, spank other guys or–”

Xander grabbed him by the shoulders, fingers digging in, and kissed Ben so hard they both came up gasping for air.

“Please don’t ever say something like that again,” Xander said afterwards. Ben could see him struggling with his self-control, and drew Xander’s face towards his, down over his neck onto his shoulder. Xander opened his mouth reflexively and Ben felt teeth skimming over his flesh. “I don’t want anyone else. I want you.”

“I’m sorry,” Ben had said. “It was stupid. I didn’t mean it. It was a stupid thing to say.”
