Mink liked talking to Dane, because they talked about whatever seemed to jump out first. In the beginning, he’d been reserved, as always. Afraid of saying something stupid, or something that would offend the older man, so he held his tongue and let Dane do the talking. Sooner rather than later though, he found himself craving the man’s words, and answering them without a second thought. Anything to see that hardened face smile at him, because he knew it was something unique to his person, seeing Dane happy like that. Knowing he caused it made a shiver race up Mink’s spine, and he savored the thrill every time.
Mink didn’t talk to Bernie so much as lightly converse. They mostly spoke of business, a comment or two traded about social class and the prohibition. One time Bernie asked Mink about how he met the Dane. He seemed startled by the question at first, but eventually steadied himself to answer. Without looking at Bernie once, Mink gave a dry answer, receding into himself as he did, feeling ashamed though confused by what. He wasn’t the Dane’s personal property, he sure as hell didn’t belong to the man. To prove this to himself, Mink didn’t flinch away as he had the last few times, when Bernie laid a hand on his thigh. Looking through his eyelashes, the younger man issued a challenge, one he knew Bernie would accept.
The first time Mink sleeps with the Dane, he is left trembling. It’s slow and soft, and nothing like what he’d imagined. It always struck the younger that the Dane would throw him down and take what he wanted, hard and fast without any real care for Mink’s well being or pleasure. Dane treats him like a treasure, kissing every inch of Mink, claiming with every touch. The man realizes he was wrong. Eddie Dane owns him, he does belong to the man. Eddie holds him afterwards, stroking his spine until Mink finally stops shaking, until his breath finally slows. A soft question in Mink’s ear makes him laugh, and he answers. “Yes. Definitely the best I’ve had.”
The first time Mink sleeps with Bernie, he feels used and raw. His lungs are burning with the effort of breathing, and he’s buried face down into the mattress of the Royal hotel bed. Bernie holds onto his hips and brings Mink into every thrust, ignoring the way his hair falls over his glazed eyes, unfocused with the alcohol he’d taken in upon the older man’s request. Mink was dizzy that first night, the thrill of someone else having him while the Dane had claimed him almost too much for his dulled brain. So he moaned and cried out, grabbing at the sheets and egging Bernie on. When it’s over, Bernie leaves Mink laying on the bed, searching for something to use to clean himself off with.
The last time Mink is with Eddie, the only words he can use to honestly describe what they do is ‘making love’. He sits in the taller man’s lap, slowly moving as he stares into those deep eyes, soul wracked with guilt. Finally Mink tears his eyes away and buries his face in Eddie’s neck, pressing kisses to the sweat damped skin. He trembles like he did the first time, skin set on fire where the Dane touches, hair falling in his face. Mink feels the overwhelming need for the older man to hurt him, to punish him for what he’s done. His hips move faster, his breath hitching as the friction drives them both insane. The way Eddie is moaning his name makes Mink ill inside, to know that the man loves him so and he’s betraying him for his own skin. When they climax, Mink does so silently, head bowed forward as though going through the ultimate penance. Mink gasps as the Dane fills him to the brim, feeling it to be his ultimate forgiveness. His slim fingers slide down Eddie’s chest, and he can’t help but pass out as he’s held close. Dane treats Mink like a treasure, and whispers those three rare words.
The last time Bernie is with him, Mink doesn’t feel above a common slut. He’s shoved face first onto the bed and roughly undressed. Bernie pushes in without any warning, any regard for Mink. He takes what he wants from the smaller man, the smell of whiskey staining his every breath, and when Bernie tries to kiss Mink, he turns away. So he just settles to using Mink’s body for what he wants, closing his eyes as not to ruin the image of who he’d rather be sleeping with, softly moaning the name. Mink realizes his cheeks are wet, and not with sweat. He stifles his shamed cries with the pillow of the damned Royal hotel bed. Mink can’t even pretend he’s with Eddie, because this is nothing like what the man would do to him. No, this was everything Mink thought he deserved. He only fought when he felt Bernie drawing near the end, attempting to pull his hips from those bruising fingers. He can’t though, because Bernie only draws him closer. He finishes, filling Mink to the brim. The brunette chokes on a sob, blue eyes glazed over with tears as the last thing that was pure is taken from him. Bernie gets up, smirking. He leaves Mink laying there, pathetic and used. He was just another toy the Hebrew had worn out, and was bored with.
Mink sat alone for a long time, thinking over everything. Bernie, Eddie, and his own position between the two. Nothing would ever make it right, and he knew that. Nothing could compensate for what this would put Eddie though. Nothing could stop what Eddie would do to him. So why this overwhelming need to tell the man what he’d done? According to Tom, Bernie was dead. It didn’t matter anymore who had done what. Gathering his things from the hotel room, Mink started to clean everything out, his final decision made. It would kill him, but he’d tell Eddie what he’d done. If he was lucky, the man would just shoot him and leave it at that, even if he did deserve worse.
As he scuttled around the room, he missed the door opening. Mink’s back was turned when a figure leaned against the wall, watching him. Mink turned and dropped the papers he held. A wicked smile beamed at him, dark eyes glittering.
“Hello Mink. Miss me?” The brunette swallowed hard, managing a weak, scared smile.
“’Lo Bernie.”
