/ i've had the alnst official artbook for like almost a year and i haven't really dug into it deeply LOL
but i remember i saw this one scene where ivan is hugging/comforting till after he got beat up. and it really shows more of the depth in their dynamic. 😭

a muffled sound
comes out of
him when he
feels hand
tracing down
his spine . the
touch is gentle ,
but it leaves trails
of fire in its path .
when their lips
part for breath ,
he swallows ,
the taste on his
tongue drawing
him back for more .

ivan’s eyes widen immediately, he can’t believe this is actually happening. sparks flying off in his mind before he reciprocates the kiss.
his own hand comes to rake through ashen tuffs before drifting to rest against his neck, holding him close.

it's been a while
since the last time
the two ended up
in the same bed .
seeing him up
close like this
makes him shy ,
face to face with
such handsome
features . he tried
to ignore the fact ,
but he can't deny
it anymore .
+
his mouth opens
and then closes ,
unsure if there
were any words
he could say .
after a beat of
silence , he rises
to his feet , pushing
the covers aside
so he can shuffle
his way inside .
“ i can't sleep
either ... so can
i share the bed
with you .ᐣ ”
+
“ we don't need to
go too overboard .. ”
he starts to say ,
lowering his gaze .
“ i don't have
many friends to
invite anyway . ”
it never bothered
him until now ,
realizing that he
would have a
an audience of
people who barely
knew him attending
his wedding .
+
he hugs ivan tightly ,
pads of fingers
digging into skin ,
nails leaving marks
to claim him .
every thrust sends
waves of heat
through him that
reaches his ears .
+
it's not warm in
his dorm , the
temperature is
always cooler
at night , but ..
tonight , it felt
a hundred degrees .
his eyes flick up
at the bed where
ivan's laying in
when he hears
the sound come
from the other .
he dismisses it ,
assuming it's just
him getting comfy .
+
he's at a loss for
words . another
kiss received
spreads a darker
hue across his
cheeks , and he
doesn't move .
his body should
react like usual
and push him
away , but instead ,
it stills . maybe it
wasn't a bad thing .
+
Ivan couldn't help but chuckle at his words. Of course still had to act tough.
"You're the one making it a bigger deal with all your arguing and now blushing."
Since it wasn't "a big deal" like Till says, he thought it would be okay to steal a second kiss. +

for a moment ,
he felt like time
had stood still ,
the sound of
pouring rain
drowned out
by the beating
of his heart
in his ears .
his gulp felt a
little too audible ,
too obvious .
but ivan turns
his head first ,
and till immediately
follows , turning
the other way .
+
his mind doesn't
catch up to the
fact that he's
holding his breath
as ivan sits by him .
he's all too fixated
on the fact that
they'll be in one
room——
* his room all night ,
left with no choice
but to sit with the
events of today
while in each
other's presence .
+
he only barely
catches a glimpse
of something he
shouldn't have
been looking at .
the compulsion
to check came
from a foreign
urge inside of
him , something
that threatens to
crawl up to the
surface and make
itself known .
+
his smile is filled
with warmth .
despite being
camera shy , it's
the first time he's
ever smiled so
genuinely for it .
“ it's okay , don't
worry about money .
as long as i have
you , i'm happy . ”
he never planned
to have a big
wedding anyway .
+
by now , all the tears
had dried up , and
his eyes were still
slightly puffy .
but he knows
that the color
of his face stands
out the most
right now .
even with just
a brief glimpse ,
he noticed ivan's
toned muscles ,
perfectly slicked
hair , glistening skin ..
