After such a heated conversation, he was rather surprised that Kieran had warmed back up to him. He had assumed the man would need a lot more time and conversation for that to happen. Then again, despite Kieran's temper he was never one to stay mad at him longer than a day or so. When questioned, Jakob suggested going back to his hotel. He had thought about bringing Kieran over to his apartment, but didn't want him seeing how messy it was. Not only that, Jakob wasn't entirely sure how comfortable Kieran would be knowing that Abel had been staying with him.
Looking back at Kieran, Jakob watched as he nodded before answering his question. Again, he was surprised by Kieran's answer. Abel had told him that Kieran would be staying nearby, he didn't think it would be that close. Jakob turned his head towards the silent man with the intention of calling him out on Kieran's oh so convenient accommodations. But he honestly didn't think that he would dignify it with an answer. Turning his gaze back to Kieran, he nodded. "Okay then, so after breakfast we'll head over there. Abel did you want to come too?" he asked, curiously.

After such an intense argument, it wasn't at all surprising that they weren't back on perfect terms. Honestly, he wasn't sure if they ever would be again. There was still much to unpack, hurt feelings needing to be mended, and figuring out where they stood with one another. While the worst of it might be done for now, Jakob was glad for what little peace they did have. He didn't want it to be ruined over something like petty jealousy.
Glancing towards Abel, he noted the way he ignored him. He supposed it was his own fault for not asking him more specifically where Kieran was staying. Though he probably should have suspected it would have been in his neighborhood. Although he never told either of them where he was staying all this time, Jakob found it interesting how easily they both were able to find him. That too, he suspected was Abel's doing. Turning his gaze back to Kieran, they continued to chat and he watched him nod in agreement.
Jakob was far from okay about being alone with him just yet. He appreciated the man's apology, but he was going to have to earn his trust back. Just as Jakob was sure that he would have to earn Kieran's own trust. As he addressed the other, he rolled his eyes to Abel's teasing words. He noted the hint of seriousness behind it, but did not question it. "No, that's not it." he replied. "I just wanted to be sure that you were okay with coming along. You've barely slept since you landed." He appreciated Abel tagging along with him. He knew it probably wasn't fun listening to their relationship problems. Even less fun while running on mere hours of sleep and coffee. Of course, Jakob was well aware that he was mostly to blame for this lack of sleep. He wouldn't blame Abel if he wanted to go back to his apartment and rest for a few hours. If he had to, he would only stay with Kieran in the more public areas of his hotel.

It would have been easy to get mad at him for keeping tabs after all this time. However, Jakob would only be making himself out to be a hypocrite. It wasn't that long ago that was practically all he did to Abel. It was thanks to his own stalking ways that Jakob had been able to find out where Abel lived, where he went, who lived with him, and what kind of cars they owned. Thinking on it, stalking really did play a big factor into how all three of them met. As annoying as it might be that Abel kept similar tabs all this time, he couldn't help being a little glad that he did. He didn't want to think how this whole reunion thing with Kieran might have played out if Abel didn't know where he was or how to find him if he hadn't.
Across the table Abel teased him and Jakob answered honestly. He too wasn't very keen on the idea of being alone with Kieran. While in the past he had done it several times after an argument, Kieran had never put his hands on him. He might have yelled, gotten mad, or even mad idle threats, but actually hurting him was the one thing he never did. Jakob could try and rationalize that he didn't mean, that he was caught up in the moment. But even if that was true, it still didn't make it right.
Jakob smiled as Abel commented. Indeed, he was to blame for his lack of sleep. Though he didn't recall Abel refusing him either. "Alright, but if you start nodding off, I'm leaving you with Kieran." he teased.

Despite his own lack of sleep this morning, Jakob wasn't nearly as tired. After his fit yesterday he had slept for several hours before Abel showed up on his doorstep. It still may not count as a fully rested nights sleep, but it was still more than Abel. Jakob honestly wondered how long it had been since he had a full rest. From the way he talked last night it seemed as though he came straight from work and didn't bother getting a single wink while on the plane ride over. Assuming Abel had gone into work sometime in the morning yesterday, and they didn't stop fooling around until nearly four or five this morning...that wasn't very good.
Had he been on better terms with Kieran, Jakob absolutely would have insisted that Abel take his keys, and go rest. But still, he worried how things might go between them. He didn't know if they might start to fight again, and if that were to happen would it be like the one they had or worse. Talking to Abel, Jakob went on to tease him. He watched him roll his eyes and smile, before teasing him back. Jakob laughed softly. "Hmm, you're very welcome dear. But unlike you, I've actually had some sleep." he countered. He watched the man take a bit of bacon and then turned his attention to his own plate. Cutting off another piece of his waffle, Jakob continued to enjoy his breakfast. So far he was liking their little morning banter. It reminded him of the time they shared breakfast back in Abel's kitchen.

He couldn't help being a little bit worried about Abel though he tried not to let it show. He knew it would only upset Abel further. If anything, Jakob would try to keep his conversation with Kieran to a minimum. While there was a lot they probably needed to discuss, he saw no reason that they needed to go over every little detail today. To his knowledge, Kieran still had a couple of more days left before he needed to return to the states. While they continued to chat, Jakob teased the male again. His smile grew as Abel stuck out his tongue and continued to tease him. Jakob then felt his cheeks warm slightly as he felt a brush against his leg. With his mouth full, he could not speak. He merely glanced towards the man.
He had no doubt that Abel would want to more with him while he was here. He likely was making up for all the lost time since they were apart, and frankly, he couldn't blame him. He missed hanging out with him, being in his space, and just sharing mundane moments with him. It reminded him of the short time they lived together. As the male's foot stroked against him, Jakob swallowed his food. "I don't think my neighbors will be too happy if you disturb them again." he replied. Though he hardly cared. Abel and Kieran were only in town for a couple of days and he would be damned if he didn't make the most of it.

While they talked and openly flirted with one another, Jakob had accidentally left Kieran out of their conversation. It wasn't intentional, but it happened none the less. There was no denying that in the few hours since Abel's arrival they had been together. Though Jakob made no means to hide it. Past the ugly hand prints were plenty of marks left behind by Abel. He was certain that Kieran had seen them even if he made no mention of them. Back and forth, Jakob continued to flirt with the man. He could feel Abel's foot stroking him and had yet to make a move to stop him. Replying to his last remark, Jakob watched him smirk and was expecting him to say something inappropriate.
However, before Abel could utter a word Kieran spoke up first. Jakob felt his cheeks burn even darker at the comment. He offered him an apologetic look as Kieran's eyes darted back and forth between himself and Abel. Looking back at his plate, Jakob took a few quiet bites. As he sat there, a smirk came to his lips as a smartass reply came to mind. "If you want to be technical, we already have one since we're going back to yours." he said. Jakob knew now was not the time for his shenanigans, but he could hardly help himself. After all, they were just having a little fun. If Kieran wanted to join in, he was more than welcome.

It wasn't that he didn't want them to ever have some alone time. Had things gone better and he could actually trust Kieran, he would have no problem going back to his room alone. He would have loved spending time with him and being intimate after so much time apart. It wasn't ideal, but he was glad that Kieran was willing to play along. At least for a little while. Who knew, maybe they could find a way to make things a little less intimating or uncomfortable. They'd never know if they didn't try, right?
Glancing over towards Abel, Jakob was curious what the man thought of the whole situation. It was a little weird for Kieran to suddenly be springing a threesome on them. But if it was what he truly wanted, he wasn't going to fight him on it. Jakob brought up their old conversation, and asked him if the same rules applied. Across from him, Kieran shrugged before questioning him in return. Jakob thought a moment. He remembered his old rules, most of them still holding up to this day. "Yeah...don't touch my neck." he stated plainly. It was a simple change, but one he definitely wanted enforced before anything got started.
