We sat there in an awkward silence for about five minutes until finally he spoke. But what he said threw me for a few seconds.
"I'm really nervous right now." He chuckled softly.
"Why? You were telling me not to be nervous" I smiled "I'm not nearly as nervous as I was earlier."
"Kayden what I am about to tell you cannot be public knowledge...yet." He drew in a nervous breath, "actually I have two things to tell you, the first one is... that I'm gay and I think... Kayden are you okay?"
I just sat there stunned and probably a little pale. "Kayden! Say something" I finally snapped out of it.
"But why are you telling me this? We only just met" I asked still shocked.
"Well because I think... wait you don't care if I'm gay?" He asked taken aback.
"Now that would be hypocritical of me wouldn't it? Seeing as how I am also gay." Now it was his turn to be shocked "Now why are you telling me that you are gay right after we meet?"
"Well, because I have liked you ever since the first of the year" he started to blush as he said this looking down at his hands and smiling shyly.
`Oh my gosh did David Harper, the cutest guy in school say he liked me?' I just sat there for a few short minutes then went over and sat by him on the bed and as I looked into his eyes, you know what I saw? I saw a lot of love with just a touch of lust as they started brimming with tears. I put my hand on his shoulder to keep him steady, leaned forward and kissed him softly, I heard a gasp leave his lips then felt him start to gently kiss me back. It wasn't the passionate kissing couples do while making love, it was a kiss that shows you care and it lasted for what seemed like forever but really it was a few minutes.
"Wow! That's all I can say" David breathed.
"Yeah I know, now what was the second thing you were going to tell me?" I asked after I had recovered.
"What? Oh yeah aww man I really don't want to but I'm moving schools..." he had a few tears in his eyes "I'm withdrawing tomorrow"
My mood changed a little "guess what? I am withdrawing tomorrow too, I was invited to an all boys school because of my PSAT and TAKS scores"
"I should have told you... wait was the school called St. Irvine's School for Boys?"
I nodded and smiled "yep that's where I'm going; wait that isn't where you're going too is it?"
He grinned sheepishly and nodded. "I thought I was going to have to leave you not even a day after we got together but now I don't have to. So I have one thing to ask you..." He paused for a second then started again, "Kayden will you go out with me?"
I couldn't say anything so I just leaned in and kissed him though not as tentative as it was the first time, but just as hot. "I will and you can't get rid of me that easily" I said, he just laughed.
