House

"You're the only person I know who could move to LA and somehow get paler," Olivia said.

She'd been perched on the counter beside him while he scrubbed off his makeup. Some of the crew didn't seem to like her, but truthfully, Nyx thought she was alright. Maybe a bit attention seeking, but who wasn't in this industry?

"What can I say, I'm a vampire," Nyx joked, drying his face.

"Yeah? Didn't know vampires bruised so easily," she said, pointing at a rather nasty one that was starting to bloom on his arm.

Nyx hadn't even noticed it, and frowned as he gave it a closer look. "I must have whacked my arm off something earlier," he said with a yawn.

"Are you sleeping at all?" she asked. "Jesus, Nyx, you seem permanently exhausted."

Nyx shook his head though, rubbing his arm a bit and then shrugging. "I swear, lately all I do is sleep. It's become my favorite pastime."

Olivia clicked her tongue thoughtfully, then pushed away whatever she'd been thinking with a laugh and a smile. "Yeah, well, if you're sick, keep it to yourself. I'm hosting a charity thing this weekend. Don't need your germs, thanks."

"I'm hurt," Nyx said, pretending to pout. "Thought we shared everything, Liv," he teased, leaning over and pretending to try and steal a kiss.

Olivia shrieked out a laugh, pushing him away and nearly falling into the sink. "Dickhead," she snorted, still laughing as she fixed her hair.

"Your dickhead though," Nyx grinned, walking away as she laughed again and flipped him off. On the way out the door he nearly walked right into House- Who was either on his way in, or on his way past. Nyx couldn't really tell. "Alright, Greg?" he asked.

"Marriage? God, no." House said it like Nyx had asked if he wanted to take up competitive birdwatching.

Then after a moment he added, "I mean, I get the appeal. Legally binding affection. Tax breaks. An audience to witness your slow moral decay."

His fingers trailed down Nyx's arm. "People think marriage is about love. It’s not. It’s about tolerance. It’s about saying ‘yes, I agree to this person’s entire catalog of flaws, even the ones they haven’t discovered yet."

He shrugged. "I admire that kind of delusion. I just don’t share it."

"Don't worry, I'm not going to propose," House murmured against his ear... and finally slid his hand on Nyx's leg farther up his inner thigh under the water.

"You would," House whispered, and let his fingers brush against Nyx's cock. "And I'd rip that pretty white dress off of you as soon as the ceremony was over."

"I do," said House. "I clean up pretty well. As long as I don't shave, I look better with the stubble."

He wrapped his fingers around Nyx's cock.

"Do you want me to stop?" House asked, as he started to slowly pull him off under the water, his lips moving to his neck.

"Good," said House as he continued to stroke him. "You're gorgeous when you come."

"That's the idea," House said softly, and then he let his teeth scrape lightly against his throat.
