"I'm sorry about Athen. He gets protective over me. It's always been the two of us since birth so..." The hoodie fits, it doesn't come down like the shirt but maybe he grew out of it. It smelled like him, he smells so good. "It's fine, I understand." He grabbed my hand leading me into the hallway.
Did I do it again? Is he going to hate me more? I was lost in thought until Sebastian pulled me out. "Are you ok Miles?" he stood in front of me pulling my face up with his other hand that wasn't holding mine.
I looked up and nodded. "Yea, I'm fine why?" I could tell he didn't believe me. "Don't lie to me. You know you can talk to me. I noticed this stressed expression of yours during breakfast too, what's wrong?" He said staring into my eyes.
"It's really nothing, trust me. It-"
"So it's something, Miles please." I looked into his begging eyes. "It's nothing, I just thought that I made you upset again. That's all." I looked away from him as he kept my face in his hand. "Again? You never made me upset and the thing with Athen wasn't your fault, I should have called him myself or at least let him know I was taking you last night." I shook my head.
"No I should ha-" He cut me off pulling me into his tight embrace. "No you shouldn't have done anything. You weren't in any state to have done anything alright?" I wrapped my arms around him. "But-"
"No buts, this conversation is over and I'm not mad. Us hanging out actually made me very happy." He said and then he did something I'd never except him to do. He pulled my face up landing a kiss on my forehead.
I swear today is national make Miles' flustered day because I'm all red again. I looked away, smiling and blushing at the same time. At some point I ended up biting my bottom lip.
"AWW, how cute." I heard voices come from behind us and I looked and saw Athen and Lucille standing at the bottom of the stairs watching us. Lucille had her phone out recording us and I covered my face hiding in Sebastian's chest. He wrapped his arm around me while I felt the rumble of laughter escape him.
"So I'm guessing you guys did do some stuff last night hm, didn't know you swung that way Miles." Athen raised his eyebrows, I knew he was joking but I got a feeling that Sebastian didn't. Before I could speak, he gently pushed me off him walking over to Athen. "Look, your going to stop suggesting that I fucked your friend. Can you give him a break and shut the hell up." I stood shocked along with Athen as Lucille walked forward placing her hand on his chest.
She whispered something to him that I couldn't catch. "Woah dude I was just making a joke." I could only see Sebastian's back and as hot as he his this is not a sight I want to see. "A joke my ass, thanks to me last night Miles didn't get hurt and you making some jokes about us having sex is kind of fucked up." Athen shook his head backing away.
"Miles what is he talking about? What happened?" He asked me and my head dropped. That's right last night with Evan and Sebastian. I practically forgot. I walked down to Athen shaking my head. "We can talk about it later ok but for now can you go wait for me in the car?"
I gave him a pleading look so that he doesn't interrogate me in front of everyone. Athen looked at me and Sebastian. "Alright, sorry Sebastian. See you later Lucille." I saw Lucille walk by me and towards the living room before I continued to stand there with my back facing Sebastian.
"I'm sorry, I know it's really none of my business." I kept my back facing him turning my head slighty. "No it's fine. Just...it's fine." I began to walk away Sebastian caught me by my hand. "Miles, I'm sorry I-"
"It's ok Sebastian. He doesn't even know if I'm gay or not and frankly neither do I. I'm still thinking on things." I shook his hand off me and I wish I never did. He gave me warmth that I never felt before. "I'll see you around, I have to go explain stuff to Athen. I'll be sure to return your clothes once I clean them." I said as I once again began to walk away but got stopped from him hugging my back.
"Miles please don't be mad at me." I stood there before turning in his arms. I hugged him back. "I'm not mad at you so please don't be upset. Ok?" He squeezed me tightly placing a kiss on my forehead. I looked up at him, my face turning red again.
He walked me to the door, opening it letting me out. "I'll text you ok." I smiled and nodded at him, heading towards the car seeing Athen deep in thought looking out the window.
"Miles, I'm sorry I did-" I cut him off with my hand. "It's fine, let's go home." He nodded and we drove off, making final eye contact with Sebastian. Once we got home I went to my room knowing Athen would follow me.
I laid down on my bed, it was cold, no warmth. "You know Evan right?" I said staring up at the ceiling. Athen hummed in response. "Yea, he was the one that hosted the party obvi."
I looked over at him. I knew what he was doing, he does it every time I'm upset. He tries to make to make me laugh. Not a problem just not the moment, his face dropped.
"Well what happened was..." I explained everything.
I didn't have to look at him to know that he was pissed. This is going to be annoying. "Miles, are you serious?!" This is going to be a long day, I wonder what Sebastian is doing right now. "Miles are you even listening to me?! I'm guessing you weren't going to tell me in the first place."
I continued to stare at the ceiling, my silence answering him. "Miles, you're my fucking best friend. My brother. My soulmate. My other half. You know everything about me, and you know I would've found out." He walks over to me sitting on the bed.
"Evan he's going to fucking pay for what he-"
"Athen please! Just...please ok. Yes I know but please just, just don't do anything. Please?" I placed my hand on his arm that was in a fist. He looked like he wanted to ignore what I said. Goodness this meat head of a protector that I have.
I sat up hugging his shoulder that was facing me. I could feel the tension released from him as he hugged me back. "Fine I won't do anything." I looked up at him with a smile. He half smiled and patted my head. "So you and Sebastian, are ya'll like a thing or?"
I laughed. "I don't know what my feelings are for him but I definitely don't hate him but saying like when I don't even know if I like guys or not kinda hard to say." He laughed at me. "Well even if you were gay, I'd still be here for you, no matter what ok?" He said holding his fist out. I made contact using mine smiling with a nod.
