Change of Heart (BCAD)

[Kitten]

"Yes," Spencer said quickly before anyone else could. If they were going to totally ignore the tenets of the contract, then he would try to do a little damage control. "Isaac can have his own room." He looked between Will and Max, hoping this wasn't going to be another point of contention, they couldn't really expect the dark haired young man to sleep in one of their rooms or on the couch right?

He cleared his throat and readjusted his grip on his briefcase, pushing his glasses up his nose. "Alright, well I've given you your tour and now I need to get back to the office." He patted his briefcase to demonstrate his point. "This needs to get filed and put on official record." He licked his lips and started to edge toward the elevator. "I'll see everyone later?"

Will put a hand on Isaac's shoulder, looking down into his grey eyes with something like a smile. "Sure, you can take the room next to mine." He said easily. "Well if Spencer's all done," blue eyes glanced over at Max. He had a niggling feeling that the other man was going to want to talk to their brunette liaison before he had a chance to escape. Which gave him an excellent excuse to get Isaac on his own.

"Then I can go with Isaac to get his things for the apartment. No time like the present right," he squeezed the small man's shoulder to indicate that he shouldn't argue. "Our afternoon is open anyway, and we can always grab lunch on the way back."

[BCAD]

Max wasn't about to let Spencer slink off but he didn't want to embarrass the younger man by making it too obvious that he was going to chew him out.
"I'll join you. I have a few things I wanted to go over as well." The man with mane like hair said, looking Spencer in the eyes briefly before walking past him back to the front door of the apartment. He knew that Spencer would have to follow him since he was heading back that way too.

"I'll catch up with you later, Will." He called over his shoulder before heading out.

Isaac felt his throat become a little dry as the hand remained on his shoulder. This was the second time that he'd felt that large palm pressed onto him, firmly but gently. He wondered if Will was trying to intimidate him, or if he was trying to do something else to him. Either way, it worked in both respects.

He found the hero somewhat intimidating now that it was only the two of them, yet he was also intrigued and attracted to him. He looked up at him and put one of his smaller hand on Will's, gently trying to pry it off of his shoulder but also using that action as an excuse to touch his hand.

"I'm not going to run away, no need to hold onto me like that." He assured him, glancing upwards at him.

[Kitten]

Spencer allowed himself a little pout as he followed the blonde obediently to the front door. There was no one in the world he liked fighting with less than Max, and not just because it was really hard to argue with someone when you had to look so far up at them. It also didn't have much to do with the fact that when he looked into the others brown eyes that he had to keep himself from focusing on his lips.

"Max," he sighed softly as they got into the elevator. "Listen..."

Will didn't move his hand from the others shoulder, instead using it to push the much smaller man against the wall. "I wasn't worried that you would run," he murmured softly, rubbing his thumb up the others throat as he pinned him with his dark eyes. He crowded into the dark haired man's space, bringing their mouths within inches of one another. "I think you're too interested in how this is all going to work out to leave."

The 32 year old man stepped back with a smirk and started to walk to the front door as well, behaving like he hadn't just been close enough to kiss Isaac. "Anyway, let's get going. I'm sure you'll want to have time to get your stuff unpacked today. I don't know how your... old job was, but in the Hero-ing business you don't get a lot of days off."

[BCAD]

Max also disliked fighting with Spencer, but beyond just being annoyed with the decision that had been made on the team's behalf by Spencer, he was worried. When he was worried he could become tetchy. Perhaps it was because of his job, but he had a tendency to be over protective about people he cared about, and Spencer came under that list of people.

He hadn't told him this of course, but perhaps he would some day. If he had the courage to.

"I'm listening." He assured him, figuring that he'd let him say his piece before he said his own.


Isaac's eyes widened as he felt himself being pushed towards the wall, he tensed up, worried that he'd gotten things wrong and Will had violent plans for him. However, then he felt the hero's thumb run down his throat and saw how close his lips were to his. He let out a soft whimper, unable to stifle the noise from escaping his pink lips.

It wasn't a very dignified for a man who had made a name for himself as a feared super villain to make, but how could he not?

Then, just as he had began to blush hopelessly and bring his hands up to try to touch Will, the larger man stepped away and began to walk to the front door. He blinked in disbelief and took a few flustered steps forward.

"W-Wait! What was that?" He demanded, his polite demeanour slipping as he confronted the man who had just pinned him to the wall and nearly kissed him.

[Kitten]

Spencer ran his hand through his short brown hair, sighing softly. He hadn't actually prepared an explanation, assuming that Max was going to cut him off. He took off his glasses and cleaned them to stall, they were getting just sparkling clean today that was for sure. Licking his lips nervously he clasped his hand behind his back.

"This is my job," his voice was much more of a whine than he'd intended so he swallowed and tried again. "You know I didn't want to have to be in the middle of this, but it's just a part of the job." Hanging his head the man wished that his hair was long enough to cover his face. "And I was going to tell you anyway," he didn't mention that he was going to tell the just before they arrived.

"What was what?" Will cocked his head to one side, leaning casually in the doorway. He didn't stop smirking however. The dark haired man was willing to bet, just from Isaac's quiet sounds, that he could get the other to make the first move or possibly even ask for it, before they made it back to the apartment.

"You wanna get your stuff of what?" He nodded out the door as he crossed his arms over his big chest and gave the other an even look.

[BCAD]

Max raised an eyebrow at the rather unsatisfying explanation that Spencer had supplied him with. It was clear that he didn't really have an excuse, but felt like he ought to try to explain himself nonetheless rather than just admitting that he'd been in the wrong.

"When were you going to tell me?" He asked him, having a feeling that Spencer would have only told him at the very last minute.

He looked over the brunette's face, the embarrassment he saw on it was pretty adorable, but he couldn't let himself allow Spencer off the hook just because there was something sweet about him when he became awkward.


The blush remained on Isaac's face as he scowled rather childishly at Will for his blasé attitude.
"Fine." He eventually got out, his voice pointed as he walked out of the flat, past Will, clearly feeling rather sore about being almost kissed then left with no explanation.

When they got into the car, he continued to be rather sulky. He felt toyed with. Will seemed amused, and he realised that this was a serious downside to being on the 'good guys' side. No one should have any reason to fear him, and with a lack of fear, came a sharp increase in people doing as they liked with him. He couldn't have ordered Will to continue and actually plant his lips on his own (or on his throat, that would have been nice too), and his pride wouldn't allow him to ask him to.

[Kitten]

Spencer shrugged, eyes firmly on the floor until he realized that it probably made him look like a sulky little brat. He straightened up and chewed his bottom lip, sighing as he forced himself to look back up at Max. He owed the other that much at least, and anyway the brown eyed man would never hurt him so he didn't have anything to be afraid of.

"I was going to text you in the car over." He finally mumbled as the elevator dinged and he stepped out.

Will followed the other and did his best not to smile even wider at the others adorable scowl. Isaac was too cute, and that just continued as he got into the drivers seat. He lightly rested his hand on the back of the others neck as they drove, lightly rubbing the soft skin with his thumb.

"I'm gonna need an address." He mentioned simply, eyes trained on the road and one hand lazily on the wheel of the car.

[BCAD]

Max sighed to himself, but he actually surprised himself by laughing a little at the answer. He followed Spencer out of the elevator.

"That's what I had thought." He admitted.

He was a little surprised that Spencer had actually admitted it, and it was endearing in a way that he had.


As he felt the other man's hand brush against the sensitive skin of his nape, Isaac's back straightened and he let out a small gasp of surprise. He turned his head, his eyes staring at Will's profile as the man driving the car continued to do just that, all while his eyes were on the road. He seemed so calm and collected.

"I... If you go into the woods south of the city... Follow that road. I'll let you know when we're nearby, and we'll have to walk through the trees to the clearing where my house is." His voice betrayed how wound up he was, just by a simple, but lingering touch to the back of his neck. He turned his head back around, looking at the road in front of them for a second, chewing on his bottom lip.

He wasn't sure if Will was simply toying with him, trying to show off that he was no longer a feared super villain, and that only added to the wound up feeling growing steadily inside of him.

[Kitten]

Spencer smiled bashfully as the other laughed and felt the relief in his chest. Obviously Max wasn't mad anymore and they could put this all behind them, right? "So yeah, I'm sorry about this whole thing," he said finally as they headed to the second elevator. Getting in and out of the building could be a real pain if you were in a hurry and couldn't simply jump or fly out a window.

"Anyway I need to get back to the office, the boss wants..." He started to drone on about work and the rest of his day, which was definitely going to end with a couple glasses of the good brandy and a container of take-out. The problem, in his mind at least, was over and done with.

Will frowned a little, letting his hand drop from Isaac's neck. He didn't like the strain he could hear in the others voice. He wanted the grey eyed man to be wound tight with arousal, not sounding like he might burst out and start shouting. The blue eyed man realized that he must be coming on too strong, and resolved to keep his hands to himself at least until they were out of the car.

He turned south on the road to follow Isaac's instructions and cleared his throat. "So uh, what do you like to do?" It sounded lame, but Will had always been better at doing than talking. He'd been attracted to Isaac ever since they'd first seen each other during a fight. And while he wasn't exactly thrilled at the nature of this reunion, he'd been turning several ideas around in his mind ever since they'd gotten word of the decision that morning.

It wasn't a crush really, more like a primal desire to push the small man down and see his face blank with desire. Maybe it was because they were so different? Isaac was potently dangerous with his smarts and it wasn't something Will was good at fighting against, dangerous had always been sexy in the man's eyes.

[BCAD]

Max folded his arms across his chest, a look of vague amusement on his face at how Spencer seemed to so quickly think that he was out of trouble. It was true, it was very hard for him to stay mad at Spencer, but he wasn't about to just let him off with how he'd acted either.

"That all sounds pretty tiring, but I got something I want to take care of first." He said once Spencer had finished his spiel, his hand taking Spencer's wrist into a firm but gentle grip.


Part of Isaac, the part that wanted him to disregard his pride and plead for the man to pull over so they could do more than just come close to kissing, was annoyed that Will had stopped. But another part felt a certain satisfaction that he would at least be able to talk to him without sounding like a mewling, wound up kitten.

"You mean, apart from foiling the good work of you and your people?" Isaac asked cheekily, his confidence returning quickly. "I suppose I like to read."

"Why, what do you like to do? Besides helping old ladies across the street and such."
