Rex supported his best friend as the two made their way to the blonde's house next door.

He hated seeing his crush drunk out of his mind and wished the night could have ended on a more pleasant note. It was out of sheer luck he knew Noah constantly wore his house key around his neck on a chain and was able to place him on the house's porch swing without hurting him. Noah leaned against the swing heavily and nodded in and out of consciousness. Rex carefully removed the chain and used the key to unlock the front door as quietly as possible.

When he was done he kneeled in front of his crush and patted his cheek lightly to wake him up.

"Noah?...Come on Buddy, wake up."

The blonde opened his eyes blearily and smiled at Rex.

"Hey Rex, we almost to the party?" He slurred. Rex would have rolled his eyes if he hadn't been so frustrated.

"Noah, is anyone home tonight?"

Noah yawned cutely and leaned into Rex's touch.

"My parents are visiting my aunt and uncle and my sister's tricker treating with her friends and sleeping over at their house. No ones suppose to be home tonight but me."

Rex blushed lightly at the thought of being alone in Noah's house with his crush, but brushed the thought aside and focused on getting the blonde somewhere he could lie down. He wrapped his arm around Noah's shoulder and half dragged his best friend inside his house. He'd visited Noah's home before and knew even in the dark where the blonde's room was.

Deciding that he'd had enough of dragging Noah around Rex leaned down to pick up the blonde bridal style. Noah gave a startled yelp at the sudden uplifting of his body, but quickly recovered and wrapped his arms around Rex's neck. Rex's eyebrows nearly flew past his hair as Noah buried his face into the spot where his neck met his shoulder and giggled softly. It was so unlike Noah that Rex feared that he was even drunker then he'd originally thought.

With a soft nudge of his foot Rex opened Noah's door and laid him on his bed gently. His eyes were closed in what Rex assumed to be sleep and he smiled at how sweet the blonde looked all curled up on his side like a child. It didn't feel right for him to leave Noah as sick as he was and before he left the Keep he had cautioned Six he might not return until morning. With a reluctant sigh he dragged a nearby chair to the bed's edge so that if Noah should awaken to be sick in the middle of the night he'd wake up as well.

His eyes scanned for a blanket in the dimly lit room and caught sight of something that made his heart melt. A framed picture of the two of them sat next to Noah's bed and in it Rex was laughing about something with his arm wrapped loosely around the shorter teen's shoulders. In it Noah was blushing lightly at the contact and Rex was happy to see it.

While he stared at the picture lovingly, Noah sat up slightly and clutched his head in pain. He was tired and dizzy, probably the only things in the world that could have made him oblivious to the fact that his crush was in his house alone and wearing the sexiest outfit he could imagine. Rex noticed the drunken boy's stirrings and smiled at how cute Noah looked while he was sleepy. He didn't get a chance to dwell on the thought long before Noah got up with a muttered moan and slipped off his sandals. The blonde laid his headband on the nightstand and his peace sign necklace after it. Rex stood seemly forgotten as Noah continued stripping free of his costume. Only his T-shirt and boxer shorts remained by the time he seemed to recall Rex's presence.

A look Rex had never seen before crossed Noah's face and his eyes seemed to darken in the already dim room as he looked at the Evo.

"Like what you see Rex?" He all but purred at his best friend. The words were so out of character for his best friend that Rex didn't know what to say.

The intoxicated teen didn't give him a chance to even if he had. In a quick flash of fabric Noah was left in only his boxers and looking at Rex in a way he could only describe as lustfully.

He rose off the bed slowly and swayed drunkenly towards his best friend, smiling a shameless smile that made Rex's breath catch in his throat. He didn't even flinch when Noah settled himself on top of his lap and lazily wrapped his arms around his neck. Noah's eyes were hooded and his smile was loving as his breath ghosted over Rex's face. The smell of stale beer snapped Rex out of his stunned state and he leaned away from Noah's tantalizing lips.

"Noah, you're really drunk, you need to get back to bed."

Noah continued smiling and leaned foreword until his lips were to Rex's ear.

"Only if you join me Rex. I know you want me as much as I want you. Why else would you wear something like this?"

Noah's smile became amused as he twirled his finger into the other boy's black locks. Rex blushed at the accurate assumption and grabbed both Noah's wrists forcefully.

"You don't know what you're saying Noah. Between that fight with your ex and the spiked punch you're not thinking straight."

Noah smirked and wiggled his hips lightly into Rex's, causing the Evo to involuntarily throw his head back and lightly moan at the friction.

"I think it's been established that neither of us are straight Rex and I know exactly what I'm saying. I want to show you exactly how much I like your costume."

Despite the taller teen's grip on his wrists Noah had no trouble leaning forward and claiming Rex's lips in a forceful kiss. Rex's grip tightened at the unexpected kiss as his mind overloaded from the shock of it all. It was his first kiss and he had no idea what to do.

Noah didn't seem to have the same problem. With skilled ease he forced Rex's lips apart and thrust his tongue inside his mouth. The overwhelming flavor of beer, punch and something just naturally Noah filled the Evo's mouth as the kiss deepened. Rex couldn't resist giving into the kiss and returned it with all the repressed passion he held for the blonde.

His grip loosened on Noah's wrists enough for him to break free and as soon as he did the shorter teen wrapped his arms around Rex's neck and threaded his fingers threw the newly dyed locks of hair.

Subconsciously Rex wrapped his own arms around Noah's waist and pulled the other teen closer to him. Noah smiled into the kiss at the touch before pulling back and moving his mouth to Rex's neck. He nipped at the exposed tan skin lightly, but with feeling and Rex had a hard time thinking clearly with him doing so. Still, a little voice in the back of his head (That sounded positively like Holiday) kept screaming at him that Noah wasn't thinking clearly and they shouldn't be doing what they were doing.

"Noah….Mmm…..This isn't… right…..We need…to….Ohh….stop." He muttered between gasped.

Noah ignored the taller boy's words and tried to recapture Rex's lips. The Evo avoided the attempt and grasped Noah's face between his hands. Amber brown stared into glazed over blue and Rex felt the fire in his veins at Noah's touch dwindle to a fading warmth.

Noah was out of it and letting him do this was unfair to both of them, even if they did both want it. Still holding the blonde's face in his hands Rex tilted his head down so he could place a soft kiss on his forehead.

With the same gentleness he forced Noah off his lap and helped him stand up right. The sudden movement seemed to awaken Noah from his dazed state and he sent a light glare at Rex.

"What are you doing?" He slurred lightly, trying to get back to kissing Rex.

The sober teen held him firmly by his wrists and forced him down on his bed.

"You need to sleep this off Noah. This isn't like you. Just lie down."

Noah stared angrily up at Rex and tried to wiggle his way free.

"Stop treating me like a child! I'm just fine!"

Rex rolled his eyes at how childish the blonde sounded and resorted to sitting on Noah to keep him still.

Noah gave a huff of annoyance and glared up at Rex hotly. Then, as though an invisible switch had been flicked, Noah's eyes began to water and become clouded over with tears.

"Did I do something wrong? Did you not like it? I'll get better! Please don't leave!" He asked in a rushed and frantic voice.

Rex was shocked at Noah's sudden outburst and wiped the tears away gently.

"Noah, no, nothing like that. You were fine, better then fine! You were awesome! I'm not going anywhere."

Noah sniffed pitifully and looked up at Rex with hopeful eyes.

"You're not?"

Rex caressed the side of Noah's face and smiled softly down at him.

"I promise Noah. Even if you were the worst kisser in the world it wouldn't change how I feel about you…..I love you Noah."

Noah's eyes widened to their brim and watered even more then before.

"Really Rex?" He asked in awe.

Rex leaned down till he was within kissing distance and placed a quick tender kiss on his lips.

"Really."

Still Noah looked to the side unsurely and avoided Rex's gaze.

"So you won't leave because I won't put out or cheat on me because of it? You won't get frustrated with me…Like Shawn?"

"Never Noah." He promised, frowning when a thought struck him.

"Is that why you wouldn't stop kissing me? You were afraid I wouldn't want you if you didn't want to be physical?" Rex asked softly.

Noah nodded lightly in embarrassment and avoided Rex's sad and angry gaze.

"Not everyone's like that Noah. Just because some idiot didn't have enough sense to wait until you were ready for more doesn't mean I don't. I love you for who you are Noah. For being the person I can hang with and talk to, the person I would dress up like this for, and for just being you."

Noah was touched by Rex's words and beamed up at him.

"I love you too Rex." He confessed.

Rex smiled back at Noah, but couldn't keep from voicing one last concern.

"You're not going to change your mind in the morning or pretend this never happened, right?" Rex asked, sounding just as unsure as Noah had been before.

"Not if you don't." Noah assured him quietly.

Rex was pleased with his response and carefully crawled off Noah's stomach, causing a jolt of fear to pass threw the blonde at the thought of Rex leaving. He grasped the Evo's sleeve almost desperately as he began to stand. Rex turned at the touch and caught sight of the worry in Noah's gaze.

"I'm not leaving Noah. I'm just going to crash on your chair." He assured the other teen calmly.

Noah tugged weakly at Rex's sleeve and kept his eyes down in embarrassment at what he was about to say.

"You could sleep here if you want Rex….I wouldn't mind." He mumbled under his breath, blushing madly the whole time.

Rex found the sight positively adorable and leaned down to kiss Noah's flushed cheek.

"Alright Noah….But only to sleep, okay? Nothing else."

Noah nodded quickly and moved over so that Rex could lie down with him. Rex paused to take off his boots, wrist bands, fangs and collar before sliding into bed next to his new boyfriend. Noah's face was still beet red and he couldn't bear to look at Rex directly.

Rex took advantage of Noah's embarrassment and wrapped his arms around his waist to pull him closer. The blonde froze for a long moment before relaxing into Rex's embrace. He tentatively nuzzled his face into the Evo's neck and let the surrounding warmth lull him into a light doze. He barely heard Rex's words before sleep claimed him.

"Happy Halloween Noah."
