He can feel eyes on him. Even as he's staring up at the screen, wordlessly reaching for the bowl of popcorn Eli's holding in his lap. He wants to pretend like he doesn't know but it's been at least three minutes.
"Yes, sir, can I help you?" His asks playfully, finally turning to look at the handsome blonde sitting next to him.
"Oh, no, I was just admiring how gorgeous you look in low light."
Leo scoffs immediately. "I'm sure that's supposed to be a compliment but it comes off a little rude. 'You're prettiest with the lights off, baby'." He starts snickering, trying to cover his warm cheeks.
"Boy, shut up and take the compliment." He swats the handful of popcorn out of Leo's hand with a quick swipe.
"Hey! Someone's gonna have to clean that up later! Also, I was eating that!"
"That's not all you're gonna be eating if you don't behave yourself." Eli gives a dark look, tracing his warm hand up Leo's bare arm.
Leo shivers and scoots down in his seat, warmth bubbling from the spot Eli touched him and spreading to his whole body.
"Don't threaten me with a good time..." He murmurs, sneaking his right foot over to tangle between Eli's legs, rubbing gently against his ankle.
The moment of silence between them is long, aching as they both look down at their overactive feet.
"I think I need a reminder that you're not just all talk." Eli finally admits, watching the screen. "Whaddaya say to reminding me what that mouth can do?"
Leo's breath catches in his throat and suddenly he's looking forward, heart racing as the idea fills his brain. He can't look at his partner or else he might burst with adoration - they both know this is why Leo begged to go to the movies. They both know why they picked a movie neither was interested in. They both know why they sat in the very very back.
"Good question, but I don't know how well I can see in this light. I might need a flashlight to get started..."
Eli grabs him by the back of the head.
