[Open for business | Leo and Aydin]

[fluctuationfeels]

They had their own spot. It changed up every so often, depending on how many cops were around or how many street walkers there were on any given night.

Leo and Aydin were there most every night. They had to be there. If they weren't they might miss out on the one in ten men who actually threw down some cash for their time.

Leo leaned against a wall that he favoured every Friday night. There were a couple of other white twinks there too, sticking their asses out and puckering their lips trying to score attention. What drew people to Leo was usually the fact that he didn’t want that attention half as much as the others. He needed it, because he needed the money to pay his rent, bills and feed his smoking habit. But want it? No. He would never want it, despite what he told his customers.

He light up another cigarette and sighed out a slow stream of smoke into the night air. At least it was a warm one. He wasn’t out on his ass in the cold like some down and out loser. Not yet anyway.

“S’real slow tonight.” He commented, offering Aydin a cigarette.

Comments

[asilaparapet]

[he took a cigarette from the packet and light it up, taking a slow drag] yeah, but it's not raining

[he looked around at the street] how much longer Leo?

[Aydin felt like they'd been out there for hours and had no real buyers, He leant next to Leo on the wall looking over Leo's body. God, he looked good tonight]

[fluctuationfeels]

You don't have to stay. [He shrugged, taking the cigarette from his friend and smoking it a while before passing it back.] Just go home if you're done. I'll be fine.

[asilaparapet]

[Aydin shook his head, he wasn't going home unless they went together] I don't want to go home

[he took the cigarette back and sighed] I'm not complaining

[fluctuationfeels]

Could have fooled me. [Leo sighed. His eyes were narrowed in that way that said he was in a mean mood. It was understandable though, they had been outside since 17:00 and it was drawing close to 23:00.]

Give it another two hours, I guess.

[asilaparapet]

[Aydin nodded and moved off the wall, walking back and forth] two hours okay

[he knew Leo was tried but still] how much do we need Leo? to make rent?

[fluctuationfeels]

After the score you made... Plus my forty... [He hummed thoughtfully.] Sixty.

[asilaparapet]

that's better than I thought [he actually felt good about this month, they might have some savings eventually]

So if we both get jobs tonight then we'll be good

[professional_johns]

[He hadn't been going anywhere in particular. Just for a drink before going home for the night. But he just happened to look across the street and feel like he had had his lungs ripped from his very chest. He struggled a moment, grabbing his hand onto a nearby lamppost and trying to catch his breath.

[Brent knew it wasn't him but god, it looked so like him. So very like him. He almost wanted to cry.

[He had taken a while and then moved on to what he was doing. But then the next few days he saw him every time he passed.

[And now, tonight, he found himself crossing over towards the two boys standing on the corner, his eyes lingering on the blonde one.]

I uh... Hey. [He didn't know how to start this exactly.]

[fluctuationfeels]

[Leo gave Aydin a knowing look before he stepped forward, stroking his friends hand on his way past him.]

Hey. [He looked up at the man eyes that sized up his features using a scrutiny only the young could exhibit.] You need any help, Mr?

[professional_johns]

I... Yeah uh.

[It was obvious the boys were prostitutes, selling themselves. Brent didn't know what else to do but almost blurt out] How much?

[fluctuationfeels]

[Leo hated this part. It was hard to know what to say even after a few months experience. It was easier when they made an offer, that way all you had to do was say yes or no. But making the call himself was trickier. Too high a price and he could scare the client away, too low and they'd expect it again if they ever came back.]

Twenty for a blowjob. [He said sternly, hoping Aydin wouldn't judge him for the call he made.] Forty for a fuck.

...Weird kinks are extra.

[professional_johns]

Right. [That was surprisingly cheap? Maybe? He didn't know. He kind of knew from T.V. shows and talk how these things went down, but he was just acting on this terrible whim right now.

[He didn't sound like him either. But God he looked like him. So much. Even around the same age. It made him feel tight in the chest. Brent couldn't walk away.] And I pay for... the hour rate of the room, right?

[fluctuationfeels]

Yeah. You cover it. [Leo almost rolled his eyes, but he resisted the urge. He wasn't sweet to people like Aydin could be, but he could tone down his mean streak if he had to. This guy seemed nervous. He was going to have to hold his hand some.]

There's a place a few blocks from here rents rooms by the hour. Wanna hook up there?

[professional_johns]

Yes. [He was shocked at himself. He had only been talking to the boy because - well, why? Because he looked like his memory, he had needed to refresh the memory. Brent hadn't been wanting to buy sex.

[Now he had agreed. And they were walking down the streets to the motel, not talking anymore. Brent used his credit card to pay for the room. He had a few notes in his wallet already for the boy. They were given a key and the room was... cheap.

[Brent wasn't sure how he'd gotten here, but now he slowly peeled off his coat and hung it on the back of the door.]

[mrdmiller]

[ Douglas was still adjusting to his new life in New York. Never did he think he'd be there and living his life so freely. Now he was there, away from his wife and living with his son, he never felt more lonely and trapped.

Which is what lead him to drive down the road, watching the boys pouting and wiggling their asses before he stopped a little further down, opening the door and shooing his son out.

Once his car was free he pulled up, leaning over the centre collum to speak through the window at Leo. ]

Hello?

[vacant_icon]

[ Of all the things Cameron expected that night, being kicked out of his dad's car on the way home wasn't it.

He pouted before he strut down by the boys lining the wall, watching them move before he stopped at Aydin, towering over him even without his heels he'd be slamming against the side ]

Can you tell me which way to the main street? My dad just kicked me out his car to get his rocks off and now i'm lost...

[asilaparapet]

[Aydin looked up at him and gulped, his first reaction was to give him the directions. But they needed money] five bucks

[The man could probably tell he was nervous] I'll tell you for five bucks

[vacant_icon]

[ Cameron glared at the lad for a while, tapping his nails on his own arm before he rolled his eyes, pulling a five out his bag and shoving it at the boy. ]

So now tell me, where the fuck is the main street?

[asilaparapet]

[Aydin took the money and it shoved in his secret pocket that Leo had sewn for him before he spoke] you just go down here until you hit the news stand then take a right.

[Aydin spoke with his hands and smiled at the man] Then you keep going straight as you'll see all the shops and the subway

[vacant_icon]

[ Cameron rolled his eyes, shaking his head before he went to walk off-

Only something struck him about that boy... ] You're not busy right now, are you? And you want to make some money, right?

[ He smiled a sickly sweet smile laced with poison as he leant down to face the boy. His eyelids fluttered, his false lashes framing the hell in his eyes almost perfectly ] Whats your name, kid?

[fluctuationfeels]

Just a sec. [Leo looked at the man hesitantly, casting a worried glance back to Aydin. The kid who had approached him didn't look like too much of a threat. In fact... He looked like he could fit right in on the street with them. He decided it would be okay to leave Aydin giving directions. He couldn't be there all the time.]

Text you in a few hours. [He told his friend, patting his shoulder and giving the other young stranger a nod before approaching the car and leaning down to the window to speak to the man inside.]

You lost too?

[mrdmiller]

[ Douglas wanted to just drive off without a word but it had been about six months since he left, he had to act now or he would never get another chance ]

Sorry, i don't know how to do this... [ He was honest with his admission. ]

How does this work? Do you get in the car or do you have somewhere to go?

[fluctuationfeels]

[Leo let out a small sigh under his breath. He didn't have much experience himself, but he was slowly learning the game. Confidence seemed like the best way to go, so he tried not to let on that all of this was pretty new to him too.]

There's a motel nearby that rents rooms by the hour. Or, if you wanna drive some place... [Leo shrugged.] I want fifty up front if I'm getting in your car with you.

[mrdmiller]

[ Douglas nodded, quite easily pulling fifty out his wallet before he leant over, handing the money to Leo. ]

I have somewhere we can go. What's your name? [ He had no idea if that was against the rules or not but he wanted to ask, he wanted to know. ] My names Douglas.

[fluctuationfeels]

Leo. [He answered honestly. He didn't see what concealing his name would do.] But, you can call me whatever you want. [He took the money and slid it into his secret back pocket compartment, giving Aydin one last look before he walked around to the passenger side of the car and got in.

There was a strange scent left behind on the seat where he sat. It was sickly sweet, like walking into a soap store.]

Good to met you, Douglas.
