Work Text:
"Hey, sexy." a pair of arms snake around Lucas' waist in a cheeky back hug, cold fingertips sneaking under his barely-buttoned jacket and trailing over his taut muscles. Lucas puts his phone down, already smiling when he turns his head and Renjun meets him halfway for a daringly quick kiss.
Chenle gags as he walks past, plopping between Xiaojun and Jaemin on the waiting room sofa. Normally Renjun would give him a glare or the finger, but Lucas can see that he's much too giddy to be here with him to give a shit. He's dressed adorably in a mustard sweater and a brown button-up, looking every bit like the hot TA of his dreams.
"Fancy seeing you here," he jokes, reaching for one of Renjun’s wandering hands and lacing their fingers together. Renjun pouts when Lucas removes them from his abdomen, only to giggle again when Lucas shifts his chair around and tugs him into his lap. They fall easily into place, Lucas' long fingers finding purchase on Renjun’s thin waist and Renjun slotting a palm against Lucas' jaw.
Nevermind that they're in a room full of other members and a handful of staff, the two of them have been waiting for this moment since rumours of NCT 2020 surfaced on the horizon and the two of them hurriedly texted each other to yell about the possibility of finally performing together. Renjun smiles, wide enough to show his dimple, and Lucas can't help leaning in to smooch it. He's so lucky.
The display of affection earns a not-so-subtle cough from Doyoung, who Lucas can see over Renjun's shoulder. He's looking at them with an expression that reads, "Please not in front of all the stylist noonas; I know they're currently occupied with Taeyong's inexplicably elaborate hairstyle but do Not do this to me."
Lucas manages to send him a nod but his attention snaps back to Renjun when he softly mumbles, "Wanna suck you off so bad."
He's pouting. He's pouting with that irresistible bottom lip jutting out and Lucas is a weak man who hasn't gotten head in months. But as much as that sounds like a fantastic idea, he can literally see Doyoung boring holes into them, already aware of their inappropriate intentions.
"Not here," he says with a quick shake of the head. Renjun almost deflates but brightens again after he adds, "Come home with me later."
"Okay," Renjun agrees, leaning in for a hug instead. Lucas is about to pull back when Renjun's grip stops him, breath hot against his ear as he whispers, "But I still wanna kiss you properly, baby."
Lucas blushes hard. He's awful at handling Renjun's bold words in public. Renjun doesn't waste a second, slipping off his lap and pulling him to his feet.
"Going to the toilet!" he announces to the room, although no one but Doyoung acknowledges him. Lucas, a beat late, scampers after Renjun when he disappears through the doorway.
Renjun doesn't look back, confident in his strides, even bowing to some other random staff members as he walks by. Lucas uses his long legs to catch up, trying his best to look nonchalant as they slowly quicken their pace. They speed past Kun in the hallway, who takes one glance at them and quietly reminds them to be back in five. Lucas laughs at the sternness in his tone and barely manages a thumbs up, bones buzzing with excitement when Renjun turns a sharp corner and shoves him into a random supply closet.
"I feel like teens ditching class to hang out at the-"
Renjun shuts him up with a searing kiss, lips soft and sweet and burning with desire. His arms are immediately around Lucas' neck, body pressed against his, sucking on his upper lip, moaning softly when Lucas reaches for his ass and gives it a squeeze.
They haven't dared to do anything like this in ages, the last time being in Osaka when Jaehyun walked in on them canoodling in the hotel lobby bathroom. That one wasn't horribly embarrassing, thankfully, because they were still in the baby stages of their relationship and didn't dare to do anything Risqué in public.
Can't say the same for the Renjun before his eyes, cheeks awash with a tint of pink, mouth slightly open as he catches his breath. His lips, glossy with spit, are so distracting even in the dark room, and Lucas tries his best to suppress the horny demon within him because while they could spend an hour in this cramped space together, he knows they'd be skinned alive if they ruined their outfits.
"I can see your brain working," Renjun chuckles, leaning up for another kiss. "Don't worry. A few more kisses and we'll go back. I won't mess up our makeup. Promise."
They're quieter when Lucas tilts Renjun's chin up and slots their mouths together again. Renjun's shoulders go slack as he resigns to Lucas' careful kisses, unmoving under his gentle hold. Lucas is spurred on by each satisfied sigh that escapes Renjun, the gentle licks against his teeth, the bump of tongue on tongue. The wet sound of their lips disconnecting is addicting, amplified in the small space around them, and Lucas dives back in to hear it again and again, hypnotised, thoughts clouded by pure euphoria.
He nearly loses himself in the rhythm of it all until his boyfriend places a hand over his chest to stop him.
"Baby," Renjun's eyes are slightly hazy. "We gotta go back."
Right. The stage. Renjun has to go sing From Home in two minutes.
Renjun's about to open the door when Lucas grabs his right hand. "Wait." Renjun gives him a questioning look that instantly melts into one of fondness as Lucas lifts his hand and presses his lips to his birthmark.
"For good luck. It's been a while since I've done that." His phone screen could never compare to the softness of Renjun's skin.
Renjun smiles as he finally opens the door. "I'm this close to kissing you again. Don't test me."
"That's a test I'm willing to fail, sir."
"Huang Xuxi-"
"I know, I know."
They manage to make it back to the waiting room mere seconds before Lucas' unit is called to be on standby.
"Long bathroom break," comments Xiaojun with a salacious smile. He's always assuming the worst.
Jaemin snorts. "Must've been quite the queue, huh?"
"Mhm." Lucas isn't really listening to the two Leos. His eyes are fixated on a laughing Renjun, clutching Donghyuck’s shoulder as he doubles over at some funny joke. He's absolutely glowing.
“Hey, hyung. If you could wish for anything, what would it be?" Shotaro asks randomly from Lucas' left. He’s not paying attention to them either, eyes locked on the television screen.
Renjun stops giggling to catch his breath. He meets Lucas’ gaze with a smile and waves one last time before they're whisked away to the stage.
“I’d wish for one day off with my boyfriend, Taro.”
“Awwwwwwww~” Jaemin coos, having draped himself across Xiaojun’s lap to hear the conversation. “Our Renjunnie is so lucky.”
“Nah.” Lucas disagrees. “If anything, I’m the one who’s lucky to have him.” Intelligent, funny, handsome, talented, a great cuddler… Renjun’s the whole package. Lucas honestly can’t believe that he’s dating such a cool guy sometimes.
(When they win a second time that afternoon, Renjun rewards him with endless kisses in the car. And maybe something else in the privacy of Lucas’ room in the WayV dorm, but that’s their business.)
Shotaro scratches his head.
“Man. I was gonna wish for a giant bowl of sukiyaki.”
