Travis was in his room scrolling through his phone, Marnus and Khwaja were sitting on the couch too chilling on their phones.

His scrolling was interrupted by a reel that came on his feed, "Eye contact agendas in muds, just Shana and his cheeku locking eyes." it was titled and it contained various clips of Rohit and Virat laughing or hugging or locking eyes or all of the above. (a/n: there was a fun theory that ro never looks Vi in the eyes, but it's actually in muds rn.)

He frowned, "Why are these people shipping my boyfriend with someone else?" He muttered to himself furiously.

Marnus and Khwaja shared an amused look, "What happened Trav? Why are you glaring at the screen and talking to yourself?" Marnus asked.

Travis looked up from the screen and shook his head, "You guys will tease me." He said as he opened the comments.

"No man, you are such a dear friend why would we?" Khwaja said solemnly and Marnus nodded. Travis was still reading the comments- "They look the best when they are together" "Definitely the best duo" "Their smiles around each other, says it all." 

"I know I am going to regret this but here we go." Travis said as he passed his phone to Marnus, Khwaja peeked in and both of them looked at Travis at once.

"Mate you knew what you were getting into right? They have been shipped together since way before you came in the picture." Khwaja said.

"But why are their so many clips of them?" Travis said, his tone almost childlike.

Marnus barely controlled his urge to laugh at that tone and responded with, "Because they have been together-"

"THEY ARE NOT TOGETHERE! ME AND ROHIT ARE TOGETHER!" Travis thundered, interrupting Marnus mid sentence.

Khwaja walked towards Travis and slapped him, "Calm the fuck down." He said calmly.

Travis looked at Khwaja like he would punch him but then slumped down on the bed, "I know all the facts but it doesn't help how I feel." He said sliding under the covers.

Marnus and Khwaja shared a look and pulled the covers from over Travis, "Stop behaving like a heartbroken lover now, he's still your boyfriend."

Travis sat up immediately, nodding, "Yes you are right, I am not going to cry over this." He said already determined to not sulk.

~~~~~~

When Travis walked out to bat he again saw Rohit and Virat hugging each other and celebrating the wicket.

"Neither of them are bowlers, why are they hugging each other rather than hugging the bowler?" He muttered to himself, as he made a show of fixing his gloves and helmet.

He gave Rohit and Virat a look and Rohit backed away from Virat a bit, while Virat rolled his eyes and glared at Travis playfully (not really).

"Oh oh do we see some heated stares on the field?" Ravi shastri quipped playfully.

As the overs went by Travis scored runs in quick succession and reached his century, he removed his helmet and raised his bat.

He looked back and realised Rohit was clapping for him and an involuntary blush crept up his face, he put on his helmet back immediately to avoid getting noticed.

Virat came up to him and congratulated him, "You aren't fooling anyone Travis, we saw you blushing very clearly." He whispered before going towards Rohit again.

They had a small drinks break and Travis guzzled down the energy drink, exhausted from the heat.

"Congratulations baby." He heard Rohit's voice and turned to see him standing there with Rishab.

"I did not ask to be here, bhaiya dragged me here so it won't look suspicious." Rishabh said noticing Travis glaring at him.

Travis focused on Rohit again after nodding at Rishabh, he smiled wide as he said, "Thank you."

But then he frowned again, "What if the stump mic catches your baby?" He whispered afraid of his voice getting recorded.

"It's very far away don't worry meri jaan. Though get ready for your hmm what should we term it? Reward for scoring a century or a punishment for scoring it against us?" Rohit said smirking, looking straight into his eyes.

Travis looked down willing his cheeks to not heat up and Rishabh looked at both of them, disgusted.

"Bhaiya! What are you talking about in front of me?" He exclaimed "I can't even close my ears it won't look good on the TV." He grunted, almost to himself.

"As if you and Shreyas don't do anything." Travis said laughing again and Rishabh tried to not blush and failed.

Marnus called to him and he moved away from where he was standing in front of Rohit to Rishab's side where Marnus was standing.

They shared a word and Rohit said, "Tonight's going to be one long night." one last time and Travis sharply looked at him, a smile on his face as they locked eyes for the second time.

Rishabh looked to his left towards Rohit and then to the right at Travis and then muttered, "God I miss Shreyas."

Marnus snorted a laugh as he pulled Travis away from the Indians saying, "Enough PDA for the day Trav."

~~~~~~~

In the dressing room when Travis opened his instagram his feed was filled with Travis and Rohit's little clip of talking and looking at each other.

"Yess finally!" Travis said doing a little weird celebration attracting eye balls from his team mates.

Pat raised an eyebrow in question and asked him, "What are you so excited about?" 

"Nothing skip, look at this." Marnus said thrusting his phone towards Pat showing him the edits and the clips of Rohit and Travis.

"Were you blushing Travy?" Starc asked as he slung a hand over Travis' shoulder.

"What did he even say to you huh?" Khwaja asked nudging him from the other side.

"Just know that it's going to be a long night for Trav, with the reward or punishment he's getting." Marnus informed his teammates, as if it was some crucial information about a secret mission.

Travis pushed all of them away and turned away to go out of the dressing room, "Shut up all of you!"

"See he can't wait to get to his man!" Pat commented and they heard a "Not you too, cap!" from Travis before he closed the door behind him.

~~~~~~

"What are you doing here?" Travis asked as his smile dropped as soon as he saw his boyfriend's best friend in the room.

Virat decided to tease Travis and shrugged, "This is my room." He said simply.

Travis looked around the room and heard the sound of the shower, "He didn't tell you anything?" He asked pointing his thumb towards the bathroom.

Virat shook his head innocently, "What do you mean? Also why are you so shocked that I am sharing a room with my Ro." He said, purposefully adding 'my' before Rohit's name.

Travis narrowed his eyes at Virat and sat down on the couch and he bitterly realized that he should be on the bed, where Virat was sprawled.

He noticed that the other bed was unmade and groaned, Virat raised an eyebrow at his very apparent frustration and smirked. But Virat decided to put the man out of his misery for now.

"You look like you are here for something, don't worry I was just teasing you. I am sleeping over at Nitish's room you don't have to worry." Virat said gathering his ipad and headphones.

Travis sighed in relief as he looked at Virat's retreating form, just then the bathroom opened and Rohit walked out wearing grey sweat pants and a white t-shirt, a sure shot outfit which screamed 'fuck me'.

Rohit noticed Travis staring at him and pulled him up by am arm, pressing his lips over the other man's in a kiss.

Travis' hands held on to Rohit's arms as Rohit cradled his face, deepening the kiss. Travis bit Rohit's bottom lip and Rohit responded in kind, hungrily kissing him back.

Rohit left his mouth as he peppered kisses all along his neck, he kissed a particular spot which he knew was Travis' sweet spot and he exhaled a sharp breath.

"I missed you, I missed this!" Travis breathed out, Rohit chuckled lightly.

Rohit's mouth latched on his neck as he bit and sucked onto his skin, bruising it, "I fucked you day before yesterday baby." He said still wanting to leave a mark on Travis.

Rohit pulled back and turned Travis towards the mirror, Travis' eyes widened as he noticed purple ish hickeys at various visible areas of his neck.

"You are mine baby you don't have to worry about anyone else." Rohit said, kissing one of Travis' hickeys.
