Jared's P.O.V (Remade)


I'm stuck. Just standing here, like a fucking idiot, like the fucking idiot I already was, more like. I swear I feel like I'm going to tear my backpack straps off just by how hard I'm gripping them at the moment. He opens his mouth to say something else, but I'm either deaf and he's an amazing ventriloquist, or he really can't think of anything else to say. I mean, I can't. So, in light of us both having no idea what else to add, I lean in, and kiss him. And by the time that I pull away from him, his hands are up the back of my shirt. I bury my head in his neck, and we sort of just stay there. Swaying around just a little bit.

"Hey, Connor." He hums in response. "I really fucking love you too." I glance up, he's blushing and it's probably one of the top ten most adorable things you could ever gaze upon. On my list, at least. He seems like he's about to answer, but suddenly tenses up. I pull away from him once again. "What's wrong?" His posture completely stiffens. "Oh, fuck you guys." As soon as I hear that I snap my head around. Of course. Michael Mell's head peeks out from around the corner. "Uhh, so, I'm happy you guys are doing well..." The top of Veronica's head pops up next to his. "And we're very sorry to interrupt, right, Michael?" That's Christine's fucking voice. "Oh yeah, definitely." I already get the feeling that Connor's about fucking ready to chase these guys down. And honestly? I might help him.

"Shit, I dropped the popcorn." Oh, that's fucking it. "Jeremy, you had one job." "I'm sorry, okay?" He steps out in front of me, handing me his shoulder bag. Shits getting real, wow. Michael seems to notice the energy around him getting touchy, and tugs on Jeremy's now visible sleeve, who does the same to Christine, and so on. Eventually they all look about ready to run. I walk up to Connor, pecking him on the cheek. "I'll be at the benches when you're done." His expression changes, and he smiles back at me. I can't resist half laughing at that sudden vibe change. "'Kay. I'll see you over there in fifteen?" "Sure." And with that, I leave. And you bet your fucking ass I laughed mine off when I heard the terrified screams of every single one of them.

Even going so far as to look at a passerby who heard them too, smile, and add: "Yeah, that's my boyfriend."

I'm at some picnic table near the grassier area in school, still wearing Connor-fucking-Murphy's faded jacket because now it really is getting colder. I feel the bench bend a little and then, suddenly, an arm around my shoulder. "Hey." I smile as he scoots in closer to me. "Hello." I respond, scrolling up on whatever social media I clicked. "What'cha looking at?" I shrug as an image loads. When it finally does, I can clearly see that it's of Michael sprinting away from the camera. "Jesus fucking Christ, did you actually murder him?" "Oh yeah, totally." I raise an eyebrow, glancing up at him and clicking off my phone. "Really? You killed Michael?"

"Mhmm." I turn around completely, setting my phone down on the table. "Well, why would you do that?" He seems to sit and think on that. Which is stupid funny, because he glances around like he really is trying to find a good motive. "He was being annoying." "Connor, its Michael." He sighs. "I know, I know. But he was being annoying towards you." I duck down into the crook of his neck once again. "That is true." I close my eyes. "Thanks, Connie." I can practically feel the heat swarm to his cheeks through his neck. "Just doing boyfriend stuff." He responds, sliding his hands past the jacket and shirt once again. "Damn. If this is what boyfriends do, I don't know why I never had one sooner." I think back to Rich, and roll my eyes. "Well, not any good ones. Like you." "You like me that much?" "Oh, fuck yes." "...Thanks. I like you too."
