Chapter 1: Such a Fine Line

Chapter Text

It all started a couple months ago, Dennis was still fairly new in town and scrolling through Grindr to hopefully score a place to sleep for the night. What he found instead was the intriguing profile of a man named Michael. He only had a few pictures, but from what Dennis could see, this man was his type to a T.

He was tall, with a strong build littered in salt and peppery hair all over his chest that followed onto his happy trail that perfectly led Dennis, who was already starting to drool, to stare at his boxer-clad bulge. He could barely see the man’s face and this was already the hottest man he thinks he’s ever seen.

Dennis scrolls down the profile and sees something he doesn’t typically see on the app.

Mike, 54

Not looking for a regular hookup, searching for someone who would be open to video chatting, phone sex, etc.

Dennis usually isn’t interested in voyeurism, largely due to the fact that his current living situation of a cold, white hospital room is probably one of the most unsexy places you could be in. Though it would feel criminal to pass up on getting the chance to see this beautiful man in all his glory and who knows? Maybe this will lead to them eventually meeting up. The thought of that is enough for Dennis to immediately message.

Den, 27:

so how do these video chats work?

Mike, 54:

Hello, you look very beautiful. I’m usually too busy for regular hookups but I still want to let off some steam. I’d love to get you on a video chat and see you fall apart.
I can assure you it’ll be just as satisfying as me being with you in person.

Dennis shuddered at the thought of this man bossing him around and had to take a few deep breaths before replying.

Den, 27:

I’m very interested. When are u free ?

Mike, 54:

Does right now work ?

Dennis is shaking in excitement. He grabs his blankets that he stole from the lost and found and hung them up on the wall to use as his background to give off a more cozy vibe as opposed to an “I am currently illegally living at this hospital” vibe. He freshens up little bit before opening his laptop and opening the link that the older man had sent him.

What he saw was even better than he could’ve imagined. Mike had these beautiful brown eyes behind a pair of round glasses that made him look so hot Dennis could already feel himself getting hard. Before Dennis could think he blurts out a quiet “holy shit you’re gorgeous” before slapping a hand over his mouth in embarrassment. Mike just lets out a hearty laugh as he looks down and Dennis can see the way the tips of his ears are turning as red as his cheeks. This didn’t feel nearly as awkward as he expected it to, even in the few seconds he has been face-to-face, or rather screen-to-screen, with Mike it feels comfortable. He lets out a small sigh of relief as Mike starts.

“Hey there, have you done anything like this before?” Dennis shakes his head and replies “no I haven’t, do you do this a lot ?” The older man just slightly chuckles. “ From time to time, only when I see a particularly pretty boy.” Dennis chokes on seemingly nothing but still tries to pretend to be unfazed by the man’s compliment, “oh, well it’s an honor” is all that comes out, along with a smile that felt a little too big.

“Why don’t you go ahead and undress for me” Mike says in a sickly sweet voice that sends shivers down Dennis’ spine. He slowly removes his shirt and sweatpants but leaves his underwear on and awaits further instruction. Mike takes a second to stare at the boy on his screen, eyes now much darker than when they first got on this call.

“Let me see how you touch yourself” Dennis just nods before he lets himself out of his boxers and starts to slowly stroke himself. His eyes fluttered close but he could feel Mike's eyes on him and could hear the soft hum of his breathing through the laptop. “You look so pretty like that baby” Mike says, Dennis opens his eyes and can see Mike start to palm himself through his shorts.

What he would give to dig his face into those shorts and swallow him whole.

Dennis is already so worked up and they just started. Mike is letting out small breathy moans while he continues to instruct the younger man. “ I wanna know what you would look like with your mouth full. suck on your fingers for me sweetheart” Dennis quickly says “yes sir” before placing his middle and pointer finger of his non dominant hand in his mouth and uses his thumb and pinkie to cup his jaw in place.

At this point he was fully gone, he probably would’ve gotten up and walked into traffic if Michael asked nice enough. Neither of them last much longer and Dennis releases across his stomach with Mike following shortly after. They stare at each other panting till it turns into giggling.

When they get to talking it turns out him and Michael have a lot in common. They both have taxing jobs, though Mike never actually said what he actually does. They’re both closeted, Mike says he has a couple close friends who know about his sexuality and Dennis shares that he’s still new in town and doesn’t know anyone well enough to tell them. They talk about everything from their favorite bands (they both have the same affinity for Neil Young) to their families and their lack of acceptance for their “lifestyle” choices.

After a while Mike chuckles, “I’ve never talked this much to any of my hookups before.” Dennis gets red, thinking he’s overstayed his welcome and starts to apologize. “ oh my god I’m so sorry I totally misread the vibe I thought that was fine I can go now sorry.” Dennis is frantic to exit the call but Mike stops him before he can.

“ No it’s more than welcome, it’s been a long time since I’ve had this enjoyable of a conversation.” The younger boy is now blushing and giggling, unable to hide how smitten he is for this man in his computer. “I’d like to do this again, if that’s okay with you.” Michael just smiles and replies softly, “I’d like that.”

This would be the beginning of Dennis’ weekly session with Mike, or Michael he should say. He told Dennis he only uses Mike on Grindr. They’d set a date, Dennis would spend his whole week excited to see him again, they would watch each other touch themselves, and then spend the following hour or so talking about their lives. Dennis would never admit it, but he was growing very fond of this man.

They start to text more frequently, not just about their sessions, but little things too. Dennis had a habit of sending Michael pictures every time he saw a Basset Hound after he made a comment about thinking they were cute. Michael started sending him pictures of his outfits to ask if they were “hip.” Dennis would share different prayers when Michael complained of having a particularly bad day at work. Michael thanked him profusely.

Dennis would bring up meeting in person, eager to meet the man he has gotten to know and care for behind the screen. Michael, though, would usually come up with some excuse, usually that he was too busy. Eventually, he did admit to the younger man that he was just too nervous to meet him for right now.

Dennis could live with that for the time being, he’s about to start his last rotation of medical school anyways and he knows he absolutely is not in the place to be in a relationship right now. He needs to finish up school, get a job, and get a place to live as soon as possible. Everyday he lives in fear that someone in the hospital will find him and kick him out, leaving him on the streets.

He wakes up early. Today’s the day. It’s his first shift in the ER and he’s feeling hopeful. If he can just make it through this rotation then he’ll be okay. He can’t let anything, not even the beautiful older man in his phone, distract him.

This of course gets derailed as soon as he walks in and sees said beautiful older man in front of him with a badge that says 'Michael Robinavitch, Senior Attending.'

Fuck.
