Prism Of Lovers

9

Morris's pov:
I felt sharp sunrise beaming right at my face. I opened my eyes from the deep slumber only to realize that I was sleeping on someone's shoulder. Urban's. I didn't want to move since he was still sleeping. I just stayed like that with my head on his shoulder waiting for him to get up. I could move my hands. When I looked around, I found my heart miss a beat. I opened my palm only to see the prism radiating the most amazing sight on my very palm. The colour of rainbows splashed on my palm in such a beautiful manner that I couldn't help but try to close my fist and childishly catch the reflection.

I thought about a few things when I had the reflection in my palm. I was homosexual. And there was nothing to be ashamed of it. These colours of rainbow don't just define me. But define the versatility of love. Love doesn't have a colour. And I realised that on that very day. My sexuality wasn't my embarrassment. It was my pride.

I looked up to the prism that took my breath away. It was the most awaited thing I'd longed for. To see that prism unleash it's reflection in sunlight. And so it did.

I felt the head over mine move slightly. Urban was awake. "Had a nice nap?" I asked. "To be honest, the best nap so far. I never realised that sleeping on someone's head like this could be so amazing. Thanks Buttercup." Urban booped my nose. I couldn't help but hide my face in his shoulder. He chuckled at that.

That's when he saw the prism and it's reflection on my palm. He bent down and kissed my palm with intensity. I could feel his sincerity through his lips. Strange but true. My hesitations were non-existent. I was pretty clear now. I was starting to fall for the latter.

I don't know if he felt the same. The same level of emotions. Maybe he just liked me. But I knew myself and I knew what my heart wanted. Nothing more than curling up in Urban's embrace and live a calm life ahead. I wish this prism can unravel beautiful stories. And I wish mine would be one of them...

Meanwhile:
Nathan was eagerly waiting on the meeting the skinny tall boy. He wore his cute outfit. Very well aware that Skyler would love it. He wasn't sure if Skyler would wear anything other than dark clothing. The terrace lift dinged and so entered the guy Nathan was waiting for. He looked amazing.

It was again an all-black outfit but this time paired with white and black sneakers. It was perfect in Nathan's eyes. He did smell like cigarettes but mixed with strawberries, reminding Nathan of Violet's favourite song. He brushed his thoughts off and focussed on the male coming in his direction.

"Hi Nathan." Skyler gave his genuine smile. "Hi sky..I hope you don't mind me calling you that." "Of course I don't. It's cute." Skyler gave him a sweet smile making Nathan's stomach churn. "So...this one day? How would it be enough?" Nathan asked worried as if this day would go wrong. Skyler came closer and held the shorter boy's hands in his own. He looked right into Nathan's eyes and spoke. "Baby...I don't know if this day is enough or not. I just know that you would be happy. Because that's all that matters." Nathan blushed and hid his face in his palms.

"You're so cheesy. Not like I hate it. But it's just..." Nathan trailed off when suddenly he felt a warm sensation on his forehead. It was a reassuring peck. Skyler looked at him and said. "Don't worry. I'll make sure you are safe. With me." Nathan nodded and held the taller boy's hand. Skyler took him to the lift and they went down to the dorm lobby. Skyler had planned an amazing date for the petite boy. He knew how simple and sweet the other boy was. So the plan had to be simple and sweet too.

Nathan asked him why he never saw the other in the dorms. Skyler had told him that he lived in a studio apartment near the campus. Although it made Nathan curious when Skyler refused to answer why he was always at the terrace of the dorms. 'Why won't he tell me?" A lot of scary thoughts invaded Nathan's mind. But he had to focus on the date.

Skyler didn't have a bike or any vehicle so they decided to walk or take cab. First place that Skyler had decided was a cute cafe where they would have a cup of coffee and a hearty conversation. They walked two blocks away from the campus to come across a really beautiful and calm café. It was aesthetically pleasing.

Nathan knew that his one day was going to be amazing. He felt that his one day was going to be well spent. It was going to be worth it. He looked at Skyler who smiled warmly at him and entered the café holding hands.

~if that one day goes well...would everything fall right in place?
