Theo's POV:
It was around 8:30 pm and Boris and i were at the playground. At first we were there because we couldn't go anywhere else. His father was home and Larry and Xandra were at my house too.
We figured out that we could go to the playground after stealing alcohol from the store. It's not like they care anyways.
Well, we were not drunk, but not sober.
I was trying to get to the top of the slide but he somehow got there first. I pushed him down the slide but he grabbed my shirt and pulled me with him.
We both fell on the ground and starting laughing.
"that fucking hurt, dumbass" i mumble trying to stand up.
"you pushed me first Potter! Not my fault you're weak." He answered.
I just rolled my eyes and stare at him for about 5 seconds.
"what?" he says frowning his eyebrows.
"what?"
"you were staring."
"no i wasn't."
"yes Potter, i saw you, fucking liar."
i look away in embarrassment. It was pretty obvious that he gets me flustered. With his weird comments and the way he hugs me on drunken nights. I'm not complaining though! I mean it's nice sometimes, it's not like I'm gay or something. Wait, am i gay? No! Or maybe?? I'll just shut up.
It was already getting dark and we couldn't go to my place yet. It was just very strange to not be there drinking vodka or doing stuff like that. So we usually just got there later to sleep early. We did have to go to school the next day, and i usually make Boris sleep early on school nights. MySo early for him it's 11:30 pm. That works for me.
Around 9:45 we are lying on the dirt staring at the stars.
"can we play a game?" he asks.
"aren't you tired yet??" i answer obviously showing i am.
"not that type of game, like a verbal one," he explains.
"Oh?"
"what about, mmmm i don't know just answer random questions?"
"sure, whatever"
"ehhh, oh yeah, eh, how old were you when you kissed someone for like the first time?"
"oh, umm, i don't remember, 13 or 12 i don't know."
"ehhh, who was it?"
"Isn't it just 1 question per turn?"
"Yes. You just asked a question and i just answered so, who was it??"
"Ugh fine, her name is Pippa."(if some of u didn't know, Pippa kissed Theo in the book)
"oh, the red haired one you used to talk about?"
"yes."
I don't know why, but it felt wrong to say this to Boris. As if it was an uncomfortable conversation.
There was a brief silence, i was trying to think of a question that wouldn't be uncomfortable.
"um, so what is the most precious thing you have?" i ask breaking the silence.
"ehhh, probably the tv."
"yeah."
There was another silence, but this time it was 10x more uncomfortable since a woman passed walking there and stared at us, i mean, we were 2 teenagers on a playground in the middle of the desert.
She gave us a weird look and then just turned around and ran away.
"HA! she was scared of you!!" Boris suddenly blurts out.
"She was scared of you!!" I yelled.
"Aha, yeah whatever, it was still funny tho."
"I guess so?"
He stood up and left me there confused.
"Hey! Where are you going?"
"To the swing" he said pointing at the two swings not that far away from me.
I tried standing up but i couldn't stand, 'maybe when i fell down the slide i hurt my foot' i think.
When he sees I'm still on the ground he looks at me confused.
"What happened Potter?"
"Oh, I think I just broke my foot haha." I was obviously being dramatic, but it did hurt.
"WHAT??" he yells
"Oh, no, nothing, i just hurt my foot and can't stand up hahah" i say and then i start having a laughing attack.
"What's so funny Potter?" He asks looking way more confused.
"Uh? Oh nothing hahah"
"You're acting weird."
It was obviously the drugs, there is no way i would laugh in a situation like this. I mean, I'm hurt, i would be dead serious.
"Oh i get it now." He says after staring at me a little bit.
"What the fuck did you drank or whatever you did?"
"What do you mean? I'm fine! I'm fine i swear!"
He stood up and looked through my jacket pockets and found the 'vitamins' xandra has. I inhaled only 1, but he was just drunk. So he knew what he was doing. I didn't, i just blurt out stuff when I'm drugged.
"shit" he mumbled.
"y'know Boris?"
"yes Potter?"
He knew that whatever i say it's true. drunks and children never lie. Well at least that's what my history teacher said.
"i feel really weird when you do the stuff you do to get me flustered."
"What are you saying Potter?"
"I'm saying i do get flustered, but not in like a "bro" way, in another way, if you know what I mean"
"You are lying."
"I am not!!" i tell "it's honestly pretty obvious that i feel that way, but obviously you don't care! It's like you are used to it! Like you are used to people literally falling for you!"
He stayed silent.
I knew i was saying too much now. But i didn't care.
"Oh and also, I'm probably having a gay crisis because of you! Yes you! I don't know why! I mean I'm not like homophobic, but it's different when i feel that way because it feels wrong and just horrible. And yes, I'm implying i have a fucking crush on you! how could you be so blind??? It's literally so obvious!! I don't know ho-"
I got cut off by him pulling me close to make me shut up. I didn't even realize that he was standing in front of me while I was saying that.
He stared into my eyes for like 5 seconds that felt like an eternity. Finally he pulled me closer and pressed his lips against mines.
'OH SHIT I'M KISSING BORIS?!?!' was the only thing i could think of.
The kiss didn't last long, it was just to make me shut up. And it really worked.
"Shit, sorry! You just wouldn't shut up Potter!! It's like your mouth was working faster than your brain or somethi-" he tries to apologize, but taking advantage of the fact that we were close, I kissed him again, but this time it was more intense. We were basically making out and i could feel him smiling.
We kissed until we literally ran out of air.
"Wow, well i wasn't expecting THAT."
"me neither, me neither." said Boris literally hypervitilating.
"Not bad Potter." He teased while softly punching my arm.
"oh shut up."
