A new beginning

Chapter 6

CARTER'S POV;

I wake up to the bright sun shining in my eyes and notice James is holding me, still asleep. I smiled, he is so hot went he's asleep. I decided to stay for a while and cuddle with him until he woke up, I closed my eyes, still smiling, and hugged him back as I snuggled up to him. Then I felt something on my head, probably James just moving around, he sighed. Is he waking up? I pretend to sleep, my eyes closed but he didn't move he just grabbed my hand in his, are fingers intertwined. Is this a dream? No, this is real... I pretend like I'm about to wake up and James lets go of my hand, "morning." He said his voice sounding soar from just waking up.
"Good morning." I say back with a smile and a stretch as I sit up on the couch, "I'll make breakfast." I get up and go to the kitchen. Every Wednesday we made breakfast for each other and every Friday we went out for dinner, it was just part of are week. I grab some bread and put it in the toaster then start to make scrabbled eggs and bacon. When I finished I walked out of the kitchen with both mine and James plates and set them on the table. James got up off the couch with a groan and sat beside me at the table.
"Thank you." He said before eating.
"Your welcome." We began to eat.

JAMES POV;

The whole time we ate I couldn't stop thinking about last night and this morning. They way we snuggled up to each other and this morning when I held his hand, it felt right. Maybe I should get out if the house for a while and see what Mike is up to today? I took out my phone and texted Mike as Carter grabbed are plates and walked back into the kitchen, "Thanks." I said before he left;

You: Yo, Mike. What r u up 2 2day?

Mike: Not much, probably making a YouTube video.

You: Wanna hang? We could do a calab

Mike: Sound good bro! See you later;

I put my phone back in my pocket and Carter walked back out, "Hey, I'm going to Mike's later today."
"Okay. When will you be back?" He asked.
"Before 9 pm, for sure." I got up off the chair and walked to the washroom.
"Okay." He replied before I closed the door and got in the shower. I began to sing a song quietly to myself;

Life can be hard sometimes, when you don't know which road to take

And sometimes you make a mistake, and no one told you what was wrong

But, you just gotta move along

And make the right choice, just make one right choice

Choose love over fear, choose happiness over pain

Sometimes I know it's hard to be brave, and sometimes you can't take the fast lane

Because sometimes it doesn't feel okay, and you just want to feel safe;

I sighed and turned off the water as I got out of the shower and dried off. This is going to be a good day, at least I'm hoping. I'm going to have to tell Mike about me being bi today... this wis going to suck. I got dressed and walked into the living room where Carter was making a YouTube video on the computer. He sometimes made gaming videos when he was bored and posted them online for fun, where Mike took it more seriously and it was kind of his job, besides working at McDonalds on Friday, Sunday and Monday mornings and on Holiday's, "Bye, Carter. I'm leaving!"
"See ya." And I closed the door. I began to walk down the road, it was super sunny out, good thing I was wearing a tank top and shorts. That's went I bumped into someone, Noah.
"Oh, hey..." I greeted, kind of shy.
"Hey," He scratched the back of his head, "this is acward..."
"Ha, ya." there was a pause, "So, uh, where you headed?"
"The library. They have a sale going on and I want to get get the book; The perfect boyfriend; my gal friends told me it's really good!"
"Oh. Who is it by?" I don't read much but for some reason I felt interested in this book...
"June Lennox. Have you heard of her?" I shook my head, no, "She's a new author and she's amazing! You should read some of them sometime." He offered.
"Yeah, I'll make sure to check it out. It?s been nice seeing you." He smiled.
"You know what. Me too. See you around." And he continued to walk down the sidewalk and do did I.
I got to Mike's house and he answered the door, his hair was done up nicely and he was wearing a light blue tank top and skinny jeans.
"Sup, man! Come in!" I walked inside and he closed the door behind me. Later in the day we set up his camera and equipment and I told him I was bi, "really?" I nodded, "Good for you, man!" I smiled, "Just don't try to fuck me." We laughed and sat on the couch after I hit record on the camera, "Sup, brotha's and sluts," we laughed, "just kidding, but hello and as you may have noticed I have the one. the only, James here with me." I bowed.
"Thank you, thank you."
"Now, today. I decided to paint my walls," he pointed to the plain, white wall behind us, "by playing twister!"
"Manly twister!" I said in a deep voice and my fists in front of me like I was in boxing. He laughed and we paused the camera as we moved all the furnisher and placed a bunch of new paper and stuff all over his floor. We set up the twister mats, one tapped to to wall and the other normally on the ground. We un-paused the camera and sat on the mat, "So how this will work," I start to explain, "Is that every time we spin and it lands on a purple, we re-spin and what ever colour it lands on it means the one on the wall." I show an example, "So say I spun. Okay, purple, so now I re-spin. Right foot Yellow, so I would put my right foot on yellow, on the wall." we give a thumbs up and start to add paint to the twister mats.
When we finished my clothing was full of paint, same with Mike, "This was fun!" Mike said looking in the camera, "if you enjoyed this, give it a thumbs up and subscribe, bitches!" I waved good-bye as he walked up to the camera and turned it off. We cleaned up the mess and the wall was full of random colours of paint, we laughed at the look of it because you could clearly see where the mat was. I went to the washroom and rinsed out my hair then feted it out. after a while I left Mike's and went home, finally I'm tired.

CARTER'S POV;

James has been gone for a long time and I finished editing and posting my video to YouTube. I was so bored without him, when he gets home I want to run up to him and hug him and say, never leave me again. Not too long after he walked through the front door, full of paint, "um... YouTube?" I asked.
"Yep." we began to laugh. then it went silent and James was staring at me, he walked closer to me and held me hands.
"James?"
"Thank you, for being my friend." He smiled and kissed me on the top of my head, it felt like what I felt this morning when I was laying with him. That's what it was!? Did James actually like me?
