In The Closet

Chapter 2

*TW- Self Harm*

Danny and Taylor were pigging out on Pizza and garlic knots. Guys usually ate a lot so most of the food was gone fairly quickly. They relaxed in his bedroom watching horror movies, then comedies, then back to horror. They even had a few beers that they were sneaky with drinking. They never tried to get wasted but sometimes it happened. Danny glanced at him every now and again and smiled. He was looking so attractive, he hated whatever he was feeling. 

"Thanks for letting me stay here" Danny told him. 

"You know you're always allowed too, besides its more fun when you're here, it gets boring" he laughed. 

"Yeah I know how that feels, sucks not having siblings or something" Danny told him. 

"Yeah but hey we have each other" Taylor smiled. 

"So were brothers?" Danny laughed. 

"No not brothers!" Taylor laughed. "Best friends, I feel like I can always tell you anything" Taylor told him.

 "I feel the same way.." Danny agreed. 

They both were quiet for a few moments. 

"So uh, question, when did you realize you were gay?" Danny asked.

 Taylor looked confused, not sure why Danny asked it. "Uh well I guess I always knew, I came out when I was 13" he shrugged his shoulders. 

"You always knew?" he asked. 

"Well yeah, I just never felt things for girls and started feeling things for guys" he told him. 

"Never for girls?" Danny asked. 

Taylor chucked a bit. 

"Nope never, that's how I knew" Taylor told him.

 Danny and him glanced back at the movie for a bit as they drank some beers. Danny didn't know why he was asking those questions, he was curious, was it for Taylor or for himself. He never felt anything for girls like he said and he was having some weird feeling for Taylor that he didn't understand, was he gay? He was thinking in his head. They continued to watch the movie. 

"So any crushes? I think Tiffany likes you" Taylor admitted. 

"Oh god not Tiffany" he laughed. 

"Why not?" He asked. "She's not my type.." Danny told him. 

"So what is your type?" Taylor asked. 

They looked in each others eyes for a moment and all of a sudden, something came over Danny. Looking into his eyes and being so close to him, he leaned in and kissed his lips. Taylor didn't react at first, being shocked, but he then leaned into the kiss as well, it became a full on make out session. That was until Danny pulled away. 

"Oh.. Oh my god.. What did I just do.. I'm so stupid.. I.. I got to go.." he told him and ran out of his bedroom. 

"Danny wait!" Taylor called out and stumbled out of his bed and ran after him.

 Danny quickly got his backpack from the front door and ran out, holding his shoes, not even bothering to put them on. 

"Danny!" Taylor called out from his front steps and watched Danny run down the street. 

Danny ran and ran for a very long time, it took him about 30 minutes to get home from Taylors home by foot. He opened the front door to his home and closed the door behind him. He put his bag down by the front door. He was dripping with sweat from the warm weather and the fact that he ran for 30 minutes.
