+PruCan+ Summer Concert part 5

"Hey, guys, look who- seriously you two?" Francis scoffed. They had arrived in the backstage lounge where they found Gilbert and Antonio, arms linked, dancing around on the center table (which had thankfully been cleared) while singing;

"You can drink your fancy ales
you can drink em by the flagon
but the only brew for the brave and true...
comes from the Green Dragon!"

Matthew looked at them in utter disbelief, while Francis just huffed in annoyance.

"You do this every concert! It's getting old, mes chéris."

"Aw, lighten up amigo~!" Said Antonio, flashing his trademark grin.

"Yeah Franny, you know you love it." Added Gilbert, cackling. He jumped off of the table, then caught sight of Matthew. His face erupted in a wide grin as he strolled across the room towards the pair.

"Mattie! What brings you here?" He said, wrapping his arm around Matthew's waist and bending down slightly to be face-to-face with the shorter blonde. Matthew blushed a dark red from their faces being in such close proximity. Matt explained what had happened with Alfred and the passes, while Gilbert chuckled at his story.

"Wow, really? Haha, remind me to thank Alfred the next time I see him!" Said Gilbert, winking at Matt.

He took Matthew's hand in his and led him to one of the plush couches that sat in the middle of the room. They sat down and began talking about random topics. Matthew found out that Gilbert was really a lot like his brother, but still very unique. Soon, Antonio and Francis sat down on the adjacent couches and joined the conversation. Eventually, it turned into an argument between Gilbert and Antonio about whether a tomato was a vegetable or a fruit. A quick search on Matthew's Blackberry proved Antonio to be victorious. There was a beat of silence after Matt revealed the answer, then everyone started cracking up at the comical idiocy of the conversation they had been having.

Matthew was having the best time of his life. It was hard to believe that just hours ago, he'd been sitting in his living room moping about maple syrup, and now here he was, hanging out with the members of one of his favourite bands of all time. It's funny how quickly amazing things happen, isn't it?

Eventually, after receiving an angry call from his boyfriend, Lovino, Antonio had to leave. He bid them all a cheery goodnight and skipped merrily through the door. Matthew gave Gilbert and Francis a weird and receiving a unanimous reply of  'Don't ask.'

Francis yawned and announced that he was going back to his hotel.

"Goodbye, mes amours,  have fun~" He said as he left.

Noticing how late it was, while also noticing his own grumbling stomach, Gilbert asked Matt if he wanted anything to eat.

"Umm...sure?" Said Matthew, not wanting to be rude.

He followed Gilbert to a long table in the back of the room that was piled with food.

"Take whatever you want, Birdie." Said Gilbert, smiling. That smile made Matthew's heart skip a beat, as he blushed and tried to distract himself by looking at the food. He scanned over the side of the table that was mostly sweets, and beamed when he saw his favourite food ; Maple Cookies. He grabbed one and closed his eyes in pure bliss.

"Are those good?" purred Gilbert's voice so close that Matthew could feel his hot breath on his ear. He blushed and jumped back slightly. Quickly regaining his composure, he turned and smiled sweetly at Gilbert.

"You mean you've never had one?" Said Matthew, pouting cutely.

"Well, uh...no..." Now it was Gilbert's turn to blush.

Matthew giggled. "You should try one!" He put part of his cookie in his mouth, so that part of it was sticking out. Gilbert saw this and smiled smugly.

"You know, maybe I should." But instead of getting one from the table, he gently grabbed Matthew's chin to hold him in place while he bit off the other half of the treat. Matthew's face flared red, as his eyes widened. He swallowed the rest of his cookie, and looked up at Gilbert. He saw that he had a cookie crumb on the side of his mouth.

"Gil, you have a crumb on your face." He said, and, with a sudden surge of confidence, he raised himself to Gilbert's height on his tippy-toes and licked the offending crumb away. Gilbert blinked once and smirked. He cupped Matthew's face in his hands and moved in to kiss him.

...But the kiss never came. Matthew opened his eyes to see Gilbert's face barely an inch from his, still smirking. He pouted and glared into Gilbert's eyes, but he still didn't move. Becoming frustrated, Matthew moved his face closer and kissed Gilbert hard on the mouth. He hear Gilbert chuckle, then start to kiss back. Gilbert's hands soon left Matthew's face to rest on the small of his back, pulling him closer. Matthew moved his arms to wrap loosely around Gilbert's neck, deepening the embrace.

Soon, they had to pull away for some much needed air. They both panted as they looked into each others hazy eyes. Gilbert slowly guided them towards the couch, and laid Matt down on it. He climbed on top of him and started to kiss him again. He swiped his tongue over Matthew's soft bottom lip, making Matt gasp. Gilbert took advantage of the moment and slipped his tongue into Matthew's moist hot cavern. Matt moaned softly in response, and tightened his hold on Gilbert's neck, to pull him in even closer. He blushed as Gilbert started gently massaging his tongue with his own. Matthew moaned again, and whispered "Gil..."

Suddenly a loud ringing noise blared from Matthew's pocket, making them both jump. Matthew sighed and pulled his phone out of his pocket and checked the caller ID.

"It's Alfred..." He said slowly, hoping that Gilbert wouldn't be mad at him for answering it.

But Gilbert just nodded. "Go ahead."
Matthew pressed the green button on his phone and held it up to his ear.

"Hello?"

"HEY BRO! WHERE ARE 'YA? It's like 2am! You're supposed to drive me home, remember?"

Matthew winced at the volume. Why on earth did Alfred have to be so damn loud?

"I'm still in the stadium. Where are you?"

"At the car. And man it is so freakin' cold! Who knew it would be this cold in the summer?"

Matthew sighed.

Alright, alright, I'll be right there. See you in a few minutes, okay? Bye."

He hung up his phone and looked up at Gilbert.

"Umm...I have to go..." He said softly.

"It's okay." Said Gilbert, smiling. "But before you go..." He lightly grabbed Matthew's hand and took out a Sharpie. Very neatly, he wrote out his phone number on Matt's palm.

"Call me anytime~" He said, winking.

Matthew grinned. "I definitely will."

He quickly pecked Gilbert on the lips, and slowly walked out the door.
