Even I knew that. Sex was a matter of simple math. I guess Marco never really internalized the fact that not only was he gay, but he was a big bottom too. "Marco. Can you see yourself ever topping Tassos if it came to that? I said it to you before and I'll say it again now. There is nothing wrong with you being gay. There is nothing wrong with Tassos being asexual either. The only problem arises if it means you 2 will be incompatible in a really big way. Sex is amazing and it can be said to be crucial in a relationship. If you don't think it could work out on this level, you have to do the calculation if this relationship is worth it. Maybe it is. You both have to think about it." I had asked the big question in the room because it had to be asked here and now. Marco looked from me to Tassos. "...I could bottom for you. If you really want to have sex so badly." Tassos said. Marco just frowned at his words. "It isn't 'so badly'. I just... you're just..." he trailed off. Tassos looked down at the floor now. It only took a moment before he got up and said "I think I should go." We all watched as he left their suite. It was sad.
Seeing the writing on the wall, Rocco asked to be excused to his room. He was done. "You can go." I said. He got up and left without another word. Marco was shocked it went so bad. I guess he had expected some sympathy and understanding from Bella. I was the one that told him to get his hopes up. I was also responsible for this in a way. She was his mother after all. Bella looked at him and her face looked pained. She did not like seeing Marco this upset. "Marco?" she called for him. He did not respond. "Marco!?" she called again. There was no reply this time either. She reached for his shoulder. Marco slapped the hand away. "Don't touch me!" he screamed. At that moment, I knew it was over. "I just wanted to-" was all she got out before Marco shot up to his feet. "All I wanted was to show you the real me. I'm still your son. Why do you hate me so much?" Before Bella could say anything, he ran off crying. I got up and left as well. Sometimes, there was just no helping people. They were just stuck in their ways. Bella and I did not really like each other anyway. I followed Marco to the lobby.
Marco
The elevator had not arrived yet. I hugged him from behind. He was still fuming. "Is it really so much to ask Tassos to top!? He's older and bigger than me." he huffed. I sighed. "There is nothing wrong or right with it. It's all down to what you want and makes you feel comfortable. I will say this though." I started. His eyes focused on me. It was clear he wanted my advice. "You have a fiery, bombastic personality. Pretty dominant stuff here." I said. He just smirked. "If you want to be a power bottom, that's all perfectly fine. It's going to drive submissive and hyper dominant people to you. Submissive people will enjoy letting you lead all the way. Hyper dominant people will rise to your challenges and try to 'put you in your place' so you will submit to them. Now, being a top is different from being dominant, clearly. When it comes to Tassos, you'll have to decide whether his love for you is worth learning to top him, or accepting having a lot less sex than you might want to have." I continued. Marco went quiet and a silence filled the lobby as he leaned his back to me. I hung out with Marco in our hotel lobby.
