[ It's lucky again that Reggie is as resistant to feeling awkward as he is, otherwise it might be so much harder to just dive in to a hook-up with his best friend, without any kind of plausible deniability or plan B in mind. It's a little dangerous, he knows, because this is normally the sort of thing that can ruin friendships if anything goes wrong, but--
Well, really they're already past the hardest part, which is just making that interest known; once you make it past that awkward stage, Reggie figures anything else that happens from there can probably be recovered from.
Fist still balled up in his shirt, Reggie pulls Archie closer, kissing him more confidently now that Archie's kissing him back. It feels good, disturbingly natural, to finally -- finally? like he's been waiting? -- get to do this, to finally have the freedom to touch Archie however he wants rather than just a pat on the back or a slap on the ass. His hand settles on Archie's thigh, squeezing it lightly, the other sliding up to tangle fingers into Archie's hair. ]
