CARTER'S POV;
I woke up in James' arms, still wrapped around me. I can't believe he took the fact that I was gay so well. I took his arms and un-wrapped them from around me, I got up off the couch and went to the washroom, I took off my shirt and pants and turned on the shower. I looked in the mirror and sighed. finally I got into the shower, I needed to make sure I looked and smelled good today, I was going on a date, with my very first boyfriend.
JAMES POV;
I woke up, it was silent through the whole house. Finally I herd Carter coming down the hallway,"Hey, you're finally awake." He said leading against the back of the couch behind me. The smell of his calone was amazing.
"What's the special occasion?" I asked him. He blushed a little.
"I kind of have a date... with a guy." he quietly told me a little nervously.
"Really? How long?"
"What!?"
"I mean how long have you two been dating?" I laughed a little.
"Almost a week. at first it was just to see if this is really what I wanted, you know... to be gay. then two days ago we kissed an it felt right, that's why I told you yesterday." He was so open to me. I love it.
"What's his name?"
"Noah." I was about to answer but then there was a knock on the door,"That must be him." Carter walked to the door opening it with a big smile on his face.
"Hey, babe." The man was tall, super skinny and had a really bad completion, I was way better then him by far. What am I saying! I mean for a first boyfriend I guess that's okay but Carter could do way better.CARTER'S POV;
I kept a smile on my face though I wasn't that happy, Noah didn't even dress up for the occasion of our first official date... in public! I felt like I was expecting too much so I complimented his shirt that was a plain blue, it was the only nice thing about him. What am I saying, he's my boyfriend and I don't even like him... maybe this isn't the best idea. I left with him anyways, I didn't want to seem mean,"Bye, James, it was nice meeting you." Noah said as he shut the door behind me. I got into his car, it was old and rusty and the inside was worse. It smelt of old clothes and grandma perfume. I tried not to complain or cough the whole ride. I looked in the back seats, there was old take out food containers everywhere, even a mouldy BigMac! I was about to barf. finally we made it to the restaurant and when I got out of the car I was so happy to finally breath fresh air.
JAMES POV;
Carter as been gone for a while now, so expected he wouldn't be home for a while still. I took out my phone from my back pocket and called Amelia, it finally stopped ringing,"Hello?" she answered her voice even sounded cute on the phone.
"Hey, it's James."
"Oh... hey. I-I'm kind of busy right now. what's up?" She said kind of worried.
"I was just wondering if you might want to come over later?"
"Of coarse, I'm just babysitting my sisters kid right now so, ill come in a few. she should be here in a little bit."
"Okay, see you then." she hung up. She can handle taking care of a kid? wow, I'm jealous. I went into the washroom and looked at myself in the mirror,"What is it about Noah, that is so great?" I asked my mirror-self. I kept staring at myself,"I've got looks. I got smarts, kind of. All he has is bad breath and a gross smile." I stopped and slapped myself, get it together, man! I got into the shower and washed my hair, and body. about an hour pasted and Amelia hasn't shown up. I texted her, 'yo, where you at?' next thing I knew she pulled up in my driveway, 'nevermind.' I texted again. I opened the door before she could knock,"Hey, come on in."CARTER'S POV;
I came back home late, from the date. I couldn't believe how horrible it went, I don't know why, me and Noah usually have fun together but this time all I could think about was going home and running through the door, jumping into James arms and hugging him again like last night. The only problem was he was straight. I walked into the house,"Im home!" I yelled hearing only my echo. a few moments later I heard a scream, a girl scream, "oh..." I say to myself. I knew that James was home now and I just went into my room, put in my earbuds and listened to my music. I got bored so I turned it off and walked to James' room, I was about to knock when a lady came out of the room trying to put her pants on.
"What the fuck Amelia! Get out of my house you whore!" She started to cry and ran out the door. James noticed me and blushed when I looked down and saw he was naked, he hid behide the door,"hey." he said quietly looking at the floor, really embarrassed.
"What happened?" I asked.
"She's a whore that what!" He was furious. then he slowly started to break down," I'll be right back." he said as he closed the door. a few seconds later I opened the door, he was laying on his bed, fully clothed,"I don't know w-what to d-do anymore, Carter." I sat beside him as he cried on his pillow and I rubbed his back,"I can never find someone who loves me"
"I know how that feels."
"How do you know? you have Noah." I laughed.
"I don't love him, not even close, infacted... the whole time I was on that date today..." There was a pause of silents an I inhaled,"I-I was thinking... of... you."
