Accidental Sugar Daddy

takeanotherpieceofmyhartwin:

Eggsy thought he was going to hate living on campus. His
mates had told him stories of the randoms they’d been assigned during their
first years, and the horrors that had followed. Missing food, broken dorms, sex
in the living room. Ovens exploding, couches being ripped into by dogs, and
booze at every corner.

Needless to say, Eggsy was apprehensive about starting
university. It didn’t help that his roommate, Charlie, had given off such a
pretentious and posh vibe that Eggsy feared Charlie was one snap away from
having a butler throw him out of their room.

But it worked out. Charlie was still an arse, but he was a
charming arse, and did his part around the apartment. He kept his part neat,
always helped with the food and utilities, and didn’t stink up the place with
cigars or weed like the people next door.

It also helped that Charlie came with an older brother.

Harry.

Eggsy had no idea what Harry did for a living, I think it
was mentioned that he was a tailor at some point? Maybe a banker? But Harry
could have been a model for all Eggsy knew. The older man dressed in fitted
–sorry, bespoke—suits and carried himself elegantly as he wandered through the
rooms to help Charlie and Eggsy set up their living space.

Harry also tended to buy them a lot of stuff. They were a
few weeks into classes and Harry still dropped by from time to time, buying
them groceries or books or general supplies. Even if Charlie was in class,
Harry would take Eggsy out to get school supplies and food. It was… a little
weird. Which he told Roxy, Charlie’s girlfriend, as they ate a café just off of
campus.

“I think Charlie’s brother is hitting on me,” Eggsy
reported, biting into his sandwich, mulling over the most recent event in his
head. Harry had offered to pick up some cleaning supplies for Eggsy on his way
to the dorm, and then asked if Eggsy wanted to get lunch afterwards. Eggsy had
declined because of his plans with Roxy, and he could swear that Harry had
accepted the rejection with a sad tone to his voice.

“You think so?” Roxy asked, one eyebrow climbing towards her
forehead in disbelief. She had very little interaction with Harry despite
dating his brother, and from what she’d seen, Harry didn’t seem the type to hit
on his brother’s friends.

“Probably?” Eggsy amended, uncertain from Roxy’s reaction.
“He’s helping us out with the living costs? And he hangs around our room a lot,
even if it’s just me there, and he likes to buy anything we need. He’ll start
buying Charlie’s stuff, but then when Charlie isn’t there, he’ll buy stuff for
me and then buys me lunch and dinner and other stuff I like, like these
trainers.”

“You thank him though, right? And you don’t feel obligated
to pay him back?”

“Of course! I make sure to thank him and try to dissuade him
from buying stuff, but he insists!” Eggsy chewed on his bottom lip in
frustration. “I wish he’d stop sometimes, but I don’t have money to buy stuff
all the time.”

“Well…do you think
Harry is hot?” Roxy asked.

“Yeah?” Eggsy answered immediately, confused by the line of
questioning before his eyes widen and he followed it up with, “I mean, I guess?
I don’t know, probably? Objectively?”

“And it’s not creepy or invasive right?” Roxy needled,
breaking out into a smile.

“No! He’s a classy guy,” Eggsy argued, “he’s paying for
Charlie to go through uni after their parents kicked him out and he’s doing
well as a tailor or banker or whatever, and he never does anything to make me
uncomfortable-“

“So, you like him,” Roxy finished for him. Eggsy looked like
a deer in the headlights, blinking at Roxy for moments as he takes in all of
what he just said.

“I’m not gay!”

“But you do like
Harry!” Roxy smirked, leaning back in her chair as Eggsy gaped at her,
floundering to find an argument against her statement.

“I’m not gay?”

“You might be gay for Harry though,” Roxy smiled, crossing
her arms as Eggsy continued to freak out.

“But, I’m not gay…” Eggsy trailed off. He thought back on
all his interactions with Harry. Harry taking him out to eat, treating him to
the new Adidas tracksuits and trainers, waving him off when Eggsy offered to
pay him back. Harry’s smile, Harry’s shoulders in his suits, Harry’s fucking
arse in his suits. The way his trousers fit just a bit too tight around the
crotch-

“Fuck.” Eggsy whispered. “Fuck!”

Roxy cackled, watching Eggsy put all the pieces together.
“We could both be dating a Hart!”

“Shut up Rox!” Eggsy whispered, “I’m having a crisis here!”

“What crisis?” Roxy asked, rolling her eyes, “You like
Harry. It’s not a big deal. Just tell him the next time he takes you out on a
date.”

“He hasn’t been taking me on dates!” Eggsy squawked, dodging
his head when other people in the café looked in their direction. Roxy gave him
a look, a stop-bullshitting-me look, and he sulked. “Okay, maybe they’ve been
dates. But I didn’t know!”

“And now you do,” Roxy decided wisely. “Now go bone Harry
Hart.”

“You are the worse.”

“Harry!” Eggsy exclaimed, walking into his room. Charlie
wasn’t around, as per usual, probably out to go find Roxy after class, and
Harry sat primly on his brother’s bed.

“Ah, Eggsy.” Harry turned to him with a shy smile on his
face. “You’re back from lunch with Roxanne?”

“Ah, yeah,” Eggsy stuttered, dropping his bag off at the
corner of his bed. “You waiting on Charlie?”

“Yes, I was to take him to get new books. Apparently
Roxanne’s poodle chewed through a few of them.”

“Right, she told me about that,” Eggsy nodded, sitting
across from Harry on his own bed.

“Afterwards, would you like to join me for dinner?” Harry
continued quickly, “uh, me and Charlie of course.”

“That’d be great,” Eggsy agreed, “I-uh, I’d be cool with
dinner with just you too. Also.”

Harry looked up, surprised, with a blush rising on his face.
“I would like that.”

“Yeah, me too.”

Charlie was properly disturbed to come back from his class
to see his roommate and brother snogging on his bed.

Roxy, on the other hand, was appropriately delighted.
