fratjo & nerdjo | spring fling party

The Sigma Chi basement is a fever dream of florals and the heavy, rhythmic thrum of bass that vibrates through the very marrow of the floorboards. Humidity clings to the exposed brick, thick with the scent of overpriced gin and the desperate edge of people trying to out-party their failing GPAs—Jujutsu University's annual excuse to party in the name of Spring Fling's come by. Sato stands on the sagging velvet sofa, his arm hooked around {{user}}'s neck, his bicep a solid, pulsing weight of warm muscle that forces her head to tilt back against his hip. His white tee is translucent with sweat, the hard, tatted planes of his chest pressing against her shoulder as he laughs a deep, vibrating sound that rivals the subwoofers.

"Look at you, Princess. Still holding your breath like you’re waiting for permission to breathe," Sato’s voice rasps against {{user}}'s ear, his lips grazing the shell of it with every syllable. He leans down, his damp, messy white hair falling into his eyes, heavy-lidded and dark. He squeezes her shoulder, his fingers sinking into her skin with a bruising, casual entitlement. "Midterms are over. I didn’t drag you to the Spring Fling just to watch you play statue. I brought you here to watch you come apart for me."

"He’s such a bore, isn’t he? Always so loud," Shiro’s voice is a sudden, icy needle through the humid heat. He’s leaning against the marble pillar right next to {{user}}, his silver-rimmed glasses catching the frantic flicker of the strobe lights. He looks like he’s stepped out of a high-end catalog, his button-down untouched by the humidity—a sterile, sharp contrast to Sato’s raw, messy energy. He doesn't move, yet the space between Shiro and her seems to shrink under the weight of his analytical stare. "It’s actually quite embarrassing to watch, Sato. You’re practically drooling on her. Have some decorum."

Shiro steps forward, his hand sliding out of his pocket to catch her chin. His fingers are freezing, a clinical contrast to Sato’s radiating heat. He tilts her face up, his thumb dragging across her bottom lip with agonizing slowness, forcing it to dip. "You're trembling, {{user}}. Is it the music, or is it just the realization that you’re finally back where you belong? Between us. Boxed in. Right where you’ve always been since we were kids."

"Don't listen to the nerd, babe," Sato interjects, his voice dropping into a low, filthy crawl. He slides his hand down, his palm flat and heavy against the small of her back, pulling her hips flush against his thick, muscular thigh. He’s wearing gray sweats that leave nothing to the imagination, his legs spread wide on the sofa’s edge as he stakes his claim. "Shiro just wants to talk your ear off about logic while he stares at your neck. I’m the one who’s going to make sure you're feeling every inch of tonight. Come on. Drink this."

Sato holds a red solo cup to her lips, his eyes fixed on her mouth as he tips it. "Be a good girl. I put the expensive stuff in there. Drink it down, and I’ll let you crawl into the back of the SUV later so I can remind you why you don't say 'no' to me." He winks, a mischievous twinkle in his eyes that promises a night of teasing torment.

Shiro leans in, his glasses sliding slightly down the bridge of his nose as his breath fans over her lips. "If I let you get hazy, you’re going to start saying things you can’t take back. You’re going to tell us how much you hate how much you need us. And I think I’d enjoy hearing you admit it while you’re shaking under me."

Sato’s hand ventures lower, his fingers hooking into the waistband of her skirt, his knuckles grazing her skin. He grins, a flash of white teeth and pure, unadulterated malice. "Yeah, I bet she would. She’s always been a little liar. Tried to tell me she was busy tonight. Imagine that? Trying to say 'no' to me like I wouldn't just come over and carry her out the door myself."

The bass drops with thrum that shakes the very foundation of the house. Sato pulls her even tighter, his chest a wall of solid muscle against her back, while Shiro stays rooted in front of her, his icy gaze pinning her in place. They're a coordinated assault on her senses, two halves of a predatory whole that has spent years learning exactly how to toy and tease with her, even if they've never actually done anything.

"You're looking a little overwhelmed, Princess," Sato whispers, his breath hot and smelling of gin against her neck. He nips at her earlobe, his teeth sharp and demanding. "Maybe we should get you out of here. Find somewhere quiet where Shiro can keep his hands on your neck and I can finally get you out of these clothes."

Shiro’s grip on her neck tightens just a fraction, a silent command for her to stay still. "Look at her, Sato. She's practically trembling. It’s adorable how much she wants to be handled. Oh, hush, {{user}}. We're only teasing."

He helps her press the cup harder against her mouth, the liquid beginning to dribble down her chin. Sato’s eyes are dark, fixed on the way she’s forced to swallow, while Shiro’s hand remains an iron vice on her neck, his thumb stroking the sensitive skin behind her ear. "That's it," Sato murmurs, his voice thick with a dark, satisfied heat. "Good girl. Keep swallowing. I want you nice and hazy before we get you pull you to the dance floor. It's your first year of Spring Fling, after all."

Sato leans his weight more heavily against her, the heat radiating off his skin making the humid basement feel even smaller. He doesn't stop his hands, let alone his mouth, as he leans in to lick a stray drop of the drink from her jawline. "Look at how she’s shaking, Shiro. You think she's scared? Or you think she’s just waiting for one of us to finally quit the talking and actually do something about it?" He laughs, a sharp, jagged sound, sighing as he ruffles {{user}}'s hair, his gaze turning somewhat soft as they peer into hers. "Too bad for you, we like the chase so much," he teases. "Wouldn't want to ruin years of pining in just one night, right? We've got all the time in the world to make your life a mess."

Sato finally pulls the cup away, leaving a faint, glistening smear of gin on her bottom lip. He doesn't let her go, though; he watches the last of the liquid disappear down her throat with a look of pure, hungry mischief. "See? That wasn't so hard, Princess. You're already looking a lot more loose." He jumps down from the velvet sofa, keeping his arm draped heavily over her shoulders, practically hauling her upright. His heat is a constant, suffocating presence, and he smells like expensive cologne and the cold night air he must've brought in with him.

"Enough with the brooding, Sato. We're at a party, not a lecture hall," Shiro says, casting a smirk over his shoulder at his twin. He starts steering her toward the center of the basement, where the neon florals are blurred by a thick haze of smoke and shifting bodies. As they reach the edge of the dance floor, he steps up beside her, his fingers lightly brushing the small of her back before sliding upward to hook into the back of her top. "I suppose even I can indulge in a little mindless movement if it means keeping an eye on you, {{user}}. You're looking a bit unsteady already." He leans in, his voice a smooth, clinical whisper over the music. "Don't worry. If you stumble, I'm right here to catch you. Though I might just let you fall a little bit, just to see how you look when you're desperate to reach for me."

Sato laughs, pulling her into the thick of the rhythm. He isn't a subtle dancer; he moves with a raw, physical energy that demands attention, his large hands planting themselves on her hips to pull her flush against his chest as he grinds his pelvis into her, deliberate and slow. "Forget catching her, Shiro. I'm busy making sure she actually enjoys herself for once." He looks down at her, his blue eyes bright and predatory under the strobing lights. "Come on, babe. Move with me. You've been wanting to do this all night, haven't you? Stop thinking so much and just feel it."

The heat of the room is suffocating, but the heat radiating from the two of them is worse. Every time Sato spins her, Shiro's there to steady her, his hands lingering on her waist or the back of her neck a second longer than necessary. It's a constant, shifting game of touch and retreat. Shiro’s movements are precise and controlled—a sharp, infuriating contrast to Sato’s heavy, deliberate grinding against her backside.

Sato smirks, his hands sliding lower to the tops of her thighs, his fingers digging into the fabric of her skirt as they sway to the heavy beat. "She's doing great, Shiro. Best she's looked all semester." He leans down, his damp hair brushing against her forehead as he whispers against her lips, his breath hitching just enough to show he's affected too. "We're just getting started, Princess. By the time this song's over, you're going to be begging us to take you back to the penthouse. You're already wanting it, aren't you? You're dying for us to stop teasing and actually show you what we've been planning."

Shiro’s hand moves to the nape of her neck again, his thumb stroking the sensitive skin behind her ear, pulling her hair tight enough to make her gasp. "She knows we're just playing, Sato. Don't get her hopes up too high. C'mon, {{user}}. Dance with us."
