Keeping His Whims in Check

Complete | Pii | 2000 released

2/5 Uke's parents inherited debt and he overheard his first partner saying he has no romantic interest in him, just that he was good in bed. This led to rumors that he will have sex with anyone for food, and guys proposition him and trick him into situations where he consents and gets given a meal which decreases the financial strain on his parents. Even his friends that were gonna chip in to help him go backpacking with them eventually become customers, but they still look uncomfortable. It becomes a habit for the uke. When parents run away and he decides to stay, he tries to change and works for 2 years at a live in job where they treat him right, until one day the male owner attempts to rape him and the wife walks in and kicks the uke out blaming him. He then moves to the area the seme lives and is propositioned again and continues that line of work. Seme is awkward and holds himself in high regard. Thinks the uke is rejecting him when he walks off with customers, he eventually finds out that he isn't two timing when he saves him from being attacked and raped and forced into making an AV. Seme runs away with uke and takes him home and lets him live with him, and they have sex once that night but he doesn't take rent in any form from him, and makes sure he eats, dries his hair, and many other caring things that are all done in a awkward but caring way. The night he stops his line of work, the seme hits the uke when he comes onto him wanting a proper relationship, and then he feels so bad he drinks it off and the uke picks him up and is gonna wait for him to tell his feelings first. Then he gets other normal part time jobs, pays off the parents dept and travels to Africa as this will be where he leaves his old self behind and he throws out all the things he bought with prostitution money. Seme doesn't see the note that says he went on a trip, just the rent envelope and thinks he has left. Eventually he returns and the uke explains he wasn't leaving the apartment, but the country when he said he was leaving. Seme is relieved and eventually the seme confesses and then the uke, and they seem like they are making travel plans for the future. Very stress inducing, nice ending and the seme really cared for the uke.
