Can he be fixed?

(12)I like my boyfriend Ej

(RECAP FIRST PART FROM LAST CHAPTER) Rickys POV

After a while someone tap me on the shoulder, and pointed too Ej who looked like we was concerned, shaking my head I ignore him until he says "truth or dare Ricky?" Not really wanting too answer his question I just act like I didn't hear him ad ask him too repeat himself which he does. Sighing I say.....

Still Ricky's POV

"Dare" Smirking Ej looks me straight in the eyes and says "who do you like?" Turning red I quickly say that I don't like anyone before going too ask truth or dare too someone else. But Ej clears his throat causing me too stop talking and look down. Then he says it again "Do you like anyone Bowen?" Looking around I see everyone look at Ej confused as he waited for my answer. Slowly I nod my head before turning and ask someone else there question. "Red truth or dare?" Saying truth I ask him a question before zoning out. After many, many more questions and dares I watched Ej sit down after a dare. Quickly I say that I have too use the bathroom before running up stairs and into the bathroom before locking the door. Slowly I slid down the wall feeling my breath go short, and my body go numb. 

As I slipped into a panic attack I felt my breath slip away as I struggled too get air in my lungs, as the feeling that I was drowning came back. Soon my vision began too slowly turn black as someone knocked on the door and opened it. Before I new what was happening the mystery person had me wrapped in there arms whispering soothing words into my ear. Then I heard there voice, It was Ej. As my hearing cleared up and my vision came back, I let out a sob. Soon with Ej's help and instructions I began too take calming breaths as I leaned back into his chest, closing my eyes. After my breathing was back too normal, my hands stopped shaking, and my head stopped buzzing, I slowly stood up. Helping me up Ej wrapped his arm around my waist making sure that I didn't fall, but as we neared the stairs I stopped him "I will go down first, in a couple minutes you will come down and act like everything is normal, Okay?" Nodding his head he agreed, satisfied I walk down stair not meeting anyones eyes. 

After a couple minutes of sitting down stairs listening too my friend conversation I heard Ej walking down the stair. Sitting down in the spot he was in before he turned towards everyone and started talking "Hey um so I have something too tell you guys. You see uh recently I realized that I'm... bi." Sitting there I held my breath while he watched people anxiously while there faces turned into smile as they congratulated him. Looking at me he nodded his head before continuing the game we never finished. Standing up he asked me "Ricky truth or dare?" Sighing I looked into his eyes and say "truth" smiling he says, "who do you like?" Still looking at him I say "I like my boyfriend, who goes by the name Ej I believe." Smiling at each other we listen as we hear the room fill with gasps before he pulls me into a kiss. As he did this the room fills with cheers and clapping, but I ignore it wanting too focus on more important things, like kissing my boyfriend. 

After everything calmed down, and we both stopped kissing, Ej pulled be over so I was sitting next too him on the couch. Then he whispered in my ear "It's your turn." Smirking I turn too Ashlynn "Ash truth or dare?" "truth" Smirking even more I take a quick glance at Ej before saying  "What does your cousins name stand for?" As I said this I felt Ej freeze behind me, causing me too turn around too see him frozen in place with his face the color of Big Reds hair. Then something unexpected happened someone started too tickle me. Bursting out laughing I try too get out of his grasps but he is too strong "take the question back, take the question back." Yelling no I eventually pull myself from his grasps running too the other side of the room before turning too Ash for the answer. All she said was "you guys are literally the cutest couple ever, why didn't you get together sooner?" Just as I was about too respond I felt my phone go off, pulling it out of my pocket I saw a text from my dad saying that it was time too come home, and asking if I needed a ride. Quickly replying no, I tell him I would be home soon before putting my phone away and look up at everyone. Walking over I ask Ej if he could drive me home, nodding his head he grabs his bag as he says goodbye too everyone. 

As Ej walked up the stairs I walked over too Ashlynn and said "text me his full name please." Smirking she nodded her head, while giving me a thumbs up, as I ran back up stair. Running out the door of Big Reds house I quickly jump into Ej's car, but as I got in he started question me "Why did it take you so long?" Shrugging I kiss his cheek and don't respond, which he takes as some kind of answer as he drives off towards my house. Once we arrived I kissed him on the cheek again, before he pulls me into a real kiss. After that I quickly got out of the car making it three fourths of the way too my house before checking my phone and saying "See you later Elijah James." After I said it I bolted into the house, and ran up into my room, hiding away in my closet. 

Ej's POV

After I heard him say my full name my head instantly looked at him as I watched him run towards his house. Jumping out of the car I run too the front door and knock, after a couple seconds of standing there Mr. Bowen opened the door "can I help you, Ej?" Nodding my head I asked where his son was. Pointing upstairs I thank him as I start walking up the stair quietly making sure that he didn't know I was hear. Once up stairs I slowly open the door too his room and start searching for him until I look towards his closet. Smirking I open the door too not find him there, then I heard a slight thump, which caused me too look closer at the closet. Looking on one of the walls of the closet I saw a small door, smiling I walk over and open it revealing a surprised Ricky. 

Smiling at him I crawl into the room as I watch his frightened face, while he slowly backs up until his back hit a wall. Finally having him trapped I come and sit in front of him watching him stare at me. After staying in that position for a while I finally spoke "how did you find out my full name?" He sat there staring at me until finally saying something quietly "from...". Not know what he said I told him too tell me again too which he said it a little bit louder "from A....". Finally I couldn't take it anymore, I leaned forward and kissed him, staying like that for about ten seconds until I pulled away, causing him too whine. "Who told you Richard?" Finally he answered me loud enough "Ashlynn texted me it when I was in the car." Sighing I kissed his cheek before getting up and starting too leave, which caused him too whine "your leaving?" Nodding my head I tell him that I had too go talk too my cousin and that it was a school night. With puppy dog eyes he pleads for me too stay with him, so sighing I think before saying "I do have too go talk with my cousin and we have school tomorrow, but if your dad is okay with me staying the night then I will grab my school stuff and some clothes, and I will come back, deal?" Nodding his head he got up and dash down stairs pulling me along with him. 

Once we got down stairs he let go of my hand and ran up too his dad asking if I could stay over. Skeptically he looked between the two of us before saying "Okay but I don't want anything happening." Confused Ricky asks him what he is talking about, too which his dad sighs and says "I know you two are together Richard, so again, nothing can happen, okay?" We both nodded our heads as he dismissed us, allowing us too both run out too my car and get back in. Before starting the car I turn towards my boyfriend in the passenger seat and say "Richards?" Rolling his eyes he replies  with "Shut up and drive already Elijah." Smirking I put the car in drive before driving off towards my house.
