Sitting in the kitchen, Jack had the heels of his feet on the edge of his chair and knees against the edge of the table as he sketched idly in a notebook, sucking on licorice drops. At one point Jake passed through, for what Jack didn’t know - he only glanced up at him before the taller boy moved behind his chair and further into the kitchen.
What he didn’t see was Jake first eyeing the bag of black candy on the table as he ran a glass of water for himself, and then Jack as he sucked away on one, moving it around in his mouth and holding it between his front teeth at one point as he started to erase something. Jake quickly took a sip of his water and leaned one hip against the counter when Jack glanced back over at him. He started, after another long moment, to make his way back out of the kitchen the way he had come, but stopped next to Jack and set his glass carefully on the table. The other boy looked up at him and Jake wasted no time kissing him then, one hand resting on Jack’s shoulder as Jack tilted his head up and opened his mouth for him.
Jake kissed him deeply, tasting the licorice laced over just Jack, bending further towards the other boy, bracing himself with his other hand on the back of the chair and pressing Jack slightly back as his hand went up to grab Jake’s upper arm with a soft noise when Jake slid his tongue over his lips. Only to pull back after a moment, stealing the licorice drop.
Jack looked up at him indignantly before making a face. Jake only smirked, and crunched the candy in his teeth.
