It had been three days since Clay had made any contact with the brunet. It was upsetting. The smaller had kicked him out secretly hoping that he would call, text or maybe even come over again the next day. This was just proof that the blond didn't love him as much as he said.
George laid in his bed for the third day in a row staring at the ceiling trying hard to ignore his stomach which was twisting and screaming, begging for food.
The brunet couldn't find the willpower to climb out of bed. Tears came and went along with thoughts about getting up.
One thought was a lot louder than the rest;
Should I have given Clay a chance?
It bothered him. Several times he thought about reaching out and grabbing his phone, dialing Clay's number and asking for him to come back.
The taller was probably on vacation anyway.
His phone rang again for the millionth time over the time that he had spent in bed. This time it was different as the brunet weekly reached over to his nightstand looking at the caller ID.
It was Nick. What the fuck did he want?
George rolled his eyes but pressed accept nonetheless.
"George? Clay said you guys were coming to the cabin, he's not returning my mine or Karl's messages. Are you guys good man? Did you murder him?" Nick's voice sounded sweet as ever.
"Since when do you care?" The smaller asks with a scoff.
A heavy sigh is audible. "Look George, I'm sorry for bullying you, I just was jealous, That you got Karl." The boy on the phone sounded genuine.
The shorter only scoffed again in return.
"If you have to know, no I'm not okay. Now leave me be please." George says.
"Alright then suit yourself, goodbye." The voice is quickly followed by the familiar beep.
Suddenly the doorbell rings. The brunet groans. Who the fuck was here now?
He climbed out of bed, his legs weak and walked down the stairs to the front door pulling the door open with a frown.
In front of him stood a woman with similar features to his own, a frown plastered on her face. "Charlotte?" The brunet practically yells running over and wrapping his arms around the girl tightly.
"George.. You look like a wreck, I came as soon as I heard about Mom, are you okay?" The woman asks, pushing them into the house and closing the door as sobs fall from the shorter's mouth.
"It's not even about mom," The brunet says sniffling and pulling away from his sister with a frown.
"George let's go sit on the couch, and talk about it, highschool bully?" Charlie asks with a frown.
"No uh not exactly." The smaller says with a chuckle. "What is it?" She asks, sitting down on the couch the brunet falling down quickly after.
"So uh you know my boyfriend, Karl right?" George starts. "Yeah he's a good lad, what about him?" The girl asks with a smile growing on her face lightly.
"We uh broke up a few days ago." The brunet says sheepishly rubbing the back of his neck begging the tears to not flow out.
"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry George, what happened?" The girl says pulling her brother close.
"He was uh cheating, but that's not the problem." George says with a frown. "Oh? What is the problem then?" Charlotte asks.
"There's this boy...His name's Clay, he's a really nice guy, and we both like each other, but I'm scared Charlie, I'm scared that were gonna date and the same things gonna happen again, he's gonna find someone better than me, and maybe just maybe he'll have the decency to break up with me first but, moral of the story, I'm scared." The brunet says and tears involuntarily slipped down his face.
"Oh George, if you love him and he loves you, then be with him." The brunet's sister says with a smile picking up his hand and taking it in her own.
The smaller runs a hand through his hair. "I think we should go over to his house, he's not gonna return my calls." The shorter says, and Charlotte nods quickly. "Would you like me to come with?" The girl asks with a smile.
"Please, I don't know if I can do this on my own." George says, and his sister nods and stands up. "Come on, let's go."
The two get their things and quickly climb into the car, the brunet already knowing the way to Clay's house like the back of his hand.
When they arrived at the house,the smaller practically flew out of the car swiftly running up the steps and knocking on the door.
After a few seconds a girl appears.
"Hey George." She says shrugging her shoulders and the brunet virtually dies at the sight.
It's fucking Jennifer.
"Hey Jennifer, what are you doing here?" The smaller asks through gritted teeth.
"Could ask you the same thing George," She says with a smirk.
"Jennifer, please let me in." George pleads. "Hm. I'll ask Clay, but I don't think he wants to see you." She says sas in her tone as she turns around closing the door in his face.
Suddenly an arm lands on his shoulder, causing him to jump around quickly only to see Charlie.
"Relax George." She coos, rubbing his shoulder as the door opens again this time Clay behind it.
Tears pour down his face as he wraps the brunet's small frame in a tight hug, sobbing.
"George, I thought she was kidding when she said you were here, George I've been trying so hard to not think about you and not call you but it was so hard...It was so hard." The blond sobbed. Once he pulled away he looked over at Charlotte and his expression changed.
"Um Sorry, I don't think we've met. Who are uh you?" The taller asks frowning.
"Relax, this is my sister." George says with a sniffle and soft chuckle. "Oh hi. I'm Clay." He says putting his hand out towards Charlie. "Hi I'm Charlotte, but you can call me Charlie." She says, shaking his hand.
"Let's go inside, yeah?" The blond says with one last sniffle as they walk into the house. Jennifer's sitting at the island boredly picking at her nails.
"Jen? Don't you have to go home now?" The taller says through gritted teeth. The girl rolls her eyes, while getting up.
"Bye then text me later." She says walking out of the house. A few minutes of silence follows as they both walk into the living room.
"George, I think I'm gonna go now, if you need to get home at any time just call me okay?" The shorter's sister says with a smile.
"Okay, I love you." George replies, hugging his sister. "I love you too." She says before also walking out of the house leaving the two alone. The brunet turns around and is immediately bombarded by lips against his own.
It was amazing, something he'd been craving the entire three days. Hand's were dragged across searing hot skin before Clay pulls away still holding the brunet close.
"Been waiting to do that." The blond says wiping his spit slicked lip with the back of his hand staring into the honey brown eyes.
George returned the look, but knew it was now or never. "Clay Taken, will you go on a date with me?" The smaller says, biting his lip harshly.
The taller's face contorted into an unreadable expression.
"Yes." Relief flooded through every inch of the shorter's vien as he pulled the blond into another burning kiss, their lips moving perfectly in sync, as if they were two puzzle pieces that were meant to fit together.
The smaller was pushed to the couch as they made out more, before George pulled away with a heavy breath.
"I missed you."
