Strangers With Benefits .Written by Pink-Butterfly.Episode 22: wash not brush?? Once his contacts were out of his eyes, Ivan took his white toothbrush from the small cup on the sink, the initials "I.V.C', being written on it with a permanent marker. They both brushed their teeth, Nathan loving to see how domestic they looked in the mirror, just doing their nightly routine."Well, goodnight then kids." She said with a small smile, waving at them from down the hall. "And we're getting up early to go to the salon so no funny business."Nathan snorted, agreeing with her conditions before pulling Ivan in his room, they both headed to bed, Ivan already slipping into the covers, before Nathan bolted to the bathroom, coming back a few seconds later with both hands behind his back."Hold on Ivan." He said, getting closer to the bed, and sitting next to where his boyfriend laid down. "I have to do this before we cut your hair."Whilst speaking his words, he got out two thin hair ties from

Students still roamed the hallways, but it was mostly people who, like Ivan and Nathan, hand just finished their club activities.Since the two had started dating a few days ago, Nathan had given up on ignoring Ivan in school and now spent most of his time with him. People had noticed Ivan getting closer to their group of friend in general, but no one really cared if he hung out with Nathan specifically."Don't worry about Jordan, I'm sure he'll be fine."
