"Ewan?" I hear my mom's voice as she softly knocks on my door "are you awake?" "I am now" I answer opening my eyes, Sticking her head in with a smile "good morning" "Morning" I reply "Dad and I are going out for breakfast and maybe go to the museum, would you like to join us?" "Um," I think about it and answer "sure I'm not doing anything better" "Great!" She grins "we're leaving in 10 so go brush your teeth and get dressed" She walks out and I sit up yawning, getting up I check the time on my phone it's almost 10. Leaving my room I walk to the bathroom picking up my toothbrush, as I'm brushing my teeth the doorbell goes off and I wonder who it could be. Not minding it I continue brushing After a minute I hear my mom call "Ewan!" "What?!" I shout back from the bathroom "Someone's here for you" me? Who the hell could that be? Rinsing my mouth I walk out of the bathroom going to the door to find Damien standing there with my mom behind him shutting the door. I stare at him st
"I don't know I heard it was a fight," "A fight? With who?" "Not really a fight more like he got jumped by guys from Mesa High.""Damien got jumped?" I eavesdrop on the girls sitting at the lunch table behind me Turning around I ask, "are you guys talking about Damien Allen?" They nod, "who told you he got jumped?" One of them answers "some girls from the cheer team," of course, there are no bigger gossips in this school than the fucking cheer team. It's Tuesday and still not a single word from Damien, yesterday I was pissed but now I'm kind of worried 'You got jumped are you ok?' Why am I even bothering he's not going to answer. What the fuck am I supposed to do? Go to his house? Oh my god, should I go to his house? No that's crazy I can't just show up to his house if he's ignoring me. You did it before idiot... but that was different something is clearly wrong, and if it's not with us then it has to be with him. I'm not going to believe he got jumped until I talk to him thoug
Do it! Just do it Baz, this isn't about you or her, it's about Damien and you need to know where he is. No one else can tell me besides Eddie, and since he'll never say 2 words to me, my best bet is to make Silver ask him for me. Knowing her schedule as if it were my own, I wait outside her social studies class before lunch, when it's finally done everyone starts walking out and I don't see her until everyone's gone and she's the only one left still packing up. Walking in as the teacher leaves, the door shuts and we're alone. Throwing her bag over her shoulder, Silver doesn't see me until she turns Looking around she realizes we're alone "hi," she smiles even though I'm maintaining a straight face."I need help and I can't really go to anyone else with this" "Okay" "That's the only reason I'm coming to you nothing else" "I understand" "Seriously I mean it this isn't me giving you another chance, or thinking about it. Me talking to you is purely circumstantial." "I get it Baz,"
It's been rough I'm not going to lie, yes I know the truth now and sure I should be calm but I think I'm more worried than I was before. The thought of Damien in foster care scares me, and he might never come back, what if they make him switch schools? And I know he can't contact anyone who isn't family, but I just want to hear his voice, I need to know how he really is. Jaded and checked out of class I sit there but my mind is elsewhere. "Baz?" I hear the faint sound of my name but I'm too far dazed to focus on it. "Baz!" The person barks and I jump to find my teacher standing in front of me, realizing I'm sitting in English lit, I shift in my seat trying to make it seem as if I've been paying attention, and my teacher says "you need to focus Baz." "Sorry," I sit up straight."Now," she starts as she walks back to the front of the class, "Amber said that she thinks Ulysses' dream is the main symbol that moves the story, do you agree Baz?" I don't need to focus to tell her how wrong
Still, without a way to contact Damien, I sit in my room impatiently waiting, leaving the window open for him I sit at my desk trying to do homework but failing miserably. I just got him back for 2 seconds and it's been 5 hours since I saw him. What the fuck else could've happened between then and now? Getting up I walk out of my room heading to the kitchen for a drink, staring at my phone as I walk around my house I'm almost to the kitchen when the doorbell goes off. "I'll get it" I reply being the closest to the door, walking over I turn the knob and freeze. Damien smiles as soon as he sees my face, "what are you doing?" I ask in a lowered voice "Is this not ok?" He asks walking in, "really wasn't in the mood to climb the tree""I-" "Who's at the door Ewan?" my mom comes from the kitchen asking. Stopping when she sees Damien and I standing there, "oh" this is happening way too fucking fast! Realizing I'm not going to say anything Damien walks to my mom, "Hi Mrs. Basilton my name
"SETH I'M HOME!" Kaine yells as he walks into the apartment he shares with his roommate and friend of 2 years now Seth"K... I'M IN THE SHOWER!" Seth yells back"Oooo can I join you?""Damn it Kaine stop it" The moment they met, Kaine knew he was in love with Seth they are in college together and they share an apartment. Kaine came out to Seth few months after they moved in with each other and he told Seth he was in love with him shortly after that. Seth never had a problem with Kaine's choices, he was no homophobe, and the fact that Kaine was in love with him didn't bother him either it actually gave him a boost of confidence knowing he was hot enough to get anyone. Too bad for Kaine Seth had a girlfriend, Cathy Michael.Although Seth turns him down every time Kaine never stopped trying to seduce Seth, he thought that a beautiful person like Seth deserves to be with no one else but him and plus what fun was there in giving up.Seth finishes his shower stepping out of the bathroom th
It is unbelievable how in love Kaine is with Seth, he would do anything for him nothing was ever too small or too big to ask. Seth was good to Kaine they were friends but it's never fair to be lead on and Kaine was blinding following Seth's every sign, it was too easy.Kaine waits up for Seth while he's out with Cathy, he made food and set a beautiful mood up for the perfect dinner. He knows Seth will probably just shoot him down but he's willing to try anyway. As he sits there thinking of all the positions he and Seth could have sex Seth walks in"Hey!" Kaine greets excitedly"Hey... what's going on here?" Seth looks around confused"I made dinner you hungry?" Kaine smiles"Is this one of your attempts?""But of course""Then no I'm not" Seth turns to walk away and Kaine quickly gets up pulling his pants down exposing his really tight briefs"How about now?" Kaine asksSeth turns back around he thinks about it and walks back towards Kaine making him think he was going to put the move
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 tvAfter a minute Kaine says "I'll stop..." He went
