Behind Closed Doors: Chapter 3

That night Kaine met up with Emma after he got out of school "he finally told me to stop Emma and he seemed serious" Kaine was is that he's actually losing Seth

"I don't buy it..." She stops then has this look on her face like she has an idea then continues to speak " I GOT IT! you should do as he says as a test, I am willing to bet that he says something to you by next week when he realizes you took his words serious"

"You mean trick him?" Kaine liked the idea "and if he says something then that means he might actually have real feelings for me, right?"

"Yeah!"

"You think that'll work? what if I stop and he never says anything? I'd be losing him forever Em"

"Doesn't hurt to try, after a while if he doesn't say anything, then don't stop"

"Ok." they go their separate ways and Kaine went home thinking the plan out in his head. he gets home and walks in to find Seth on the couch watching tv "hey"

"Hey" Seth says keeping his focus on the tv

After a minute Kaine says "I'll stop..." He went on "I'll stop trying to seduce you"

"Thanks" Seth smiles and Kaine made his way to his bedroom "hey you wanna watch a movie with me?"

"Sure" the guys sat together on the couch cracking jokes and just enjoying each others company, and Seth really liked it because he never gets to actually just hang out with Kaine anymore and he missed that. They fall asleep on the couch and wake up the next day to the sound of Kaine's alarm on his phone. he slowly wakes up rubbing his eyes trying to wake Seth up "hey wake up" he hits him on the shoulder repeatedly

"I'm up Kaine stop it." Kaine heads to the shower to get ready and Seth went in afterward.

Kaine went about his day thinking of ways to seduce Seth, but he couldn't because he had to get Seth to break and some parts of him were scared the Seth never would. "Hey wait up!" Emma calls out running towards Kaine "you bolted out of class, what's up?"

"Not much just tired, Seth and I watched movies all last night so I got little sleep"

"Oooh" she nudges him

"It's not like that, he still hasn't said anything" Kaine replies a bit disappointed

"Oh well give it time he'll come around" they walk to get some lunch then parted ways, Kaine heads home.

Unlocking the door Kaine walks in on an intense make-out session between Cathy and Seth "OH GROSS!" he yells slamming the door "this is why we have bedrooms dude" Kaine walks in making gagging noises towards Seth and Cathy

"Oh calm down Kaine" Seth says

"You're just jealous because you get no action" Cathy adds

"And you couldn't be any more correct" Kaine can only ever reply to Cathy's insults with sarcasm because he tries not to be too mean to her for Seth's sake. "alright nasties I'm gonna go to my room, think you can hold out until I shut the door?" he walks away and went to his room. Kaine might have acted cool but his insides were slowly shredding, he lost hope piece by piece thinking how Seth could be with her and not him, he is as good as she is if not better.

Kaine crawls in bed heartbroken over what he saw, he was slowly realizing that Seth's never going to be his and maybe it was time to actually give up, but how could he? Seth is all Kaine's ever wanted but maybe he screwed up, maybe it was time to move on.

Kaine could tell Cathy spent the night because he woke up the next morning he could smell bacon coming from the kitchen, and he knows no one else cooks in this house but him. Should he spend the day in his bed? Or should he put on a brave face and go out there? Getting up to take a quick peek at them he slightly opens the door and sees Cathy standing in front of the stove and Seth behind her with his arms around her waist. What Kaine wouldn't do to be in her position right now, he wishes that that was him standing there, his waist in Seth's arms, his neck getting light but beautiful kisses from the lips of the only boy he ever loved. Kaine shuts the door and gets back into bed deciding this is where he would rather be but he knew truly that he had no choice but to stay there.

Half an hour later there's a knock on his door, Kaine refrains himself from answering so instead he stays quiet. Another set of knocks came but still no answer from Kaine so Seth opens the door and walks in on Kaine faking his sleep "dude wake up it's 11" Kaine did not respond so Seth went on "Cathy made breakfast if you want" Kaine shakes his head no "everything alright?" Seth sounds a tad worried but not enough to convince Kaine

not bothering to turn around to face Seth, Kaine lets out a quiet "fine thanks." Seth walks away shutting the door behind him. Seth is worried and some parts of him knew why Kaine was acting like this, he feels responsible because of how he spoke to Kaine the other day. All of this worry had something brewing in Seth, something he couldn't put into a straight thought, something he knew would get him in a lot of trouble later.
