The new kid- H2OVanoss {Complete}

Not giving up

Jonathan opened his eyes, feeling a weight on his head and a body next to him as he leaned on it. Suprised, he jerked off of the strangers shoulder but then suddenly grabbed the man's head as it threatened to roll forward. Jonathan placed it back up but it kept falling forward and slowly swayed around.

Afraid to wake the person up, he had no choice but to use his shoulder as a pillow.

About an hour later Jonathan decided to wake Evan up as he fully finished his asignment throughout the whole ordeal like it was a normal activity. Like it was totally normal that the two of them were so close together.

"Hey, wake up. My shoulders hurt"

Slowly, and cutely -wait what?, Evan fluttered his eyes open and wearily stared at Jonathan's eyes, making Jonathan flustered. He wasn't really used with people staring at him.

"You're still here?" Evan asked, his voice still deep in slumber from the nap he took.

"Well I was going to leave your ass behind but you were still sleeping. And I figured since I fell asleep on your shoulders, I would return the favor cause I don't like owing people. Why are you here anyway and how long have I been asleep?"

Evan got up, stretching his body "I was looking for some reference book and I saw you almost falling to the floor with your laptop and after I set your laptop down, you wouldn't let go of my hand so I sat down, thinking you'd let go sooner or later but then I fell asleep after a few hours of reading so I don't remember how long you've slept."

"You could've woken me up" Jonathan blushed

"Oh? But you looked tired and don't worry about it. I finally got a good rest so thanks for not waking me up."

"Uhm..no problem.. Anyway, we have to go... The school is closing"

"It's that late already? Well, shall we go?" Evan stared at Jonathan until he saw his head nod.

Before they headed to their own ways, Evan grabbed Jonathan's hand just before Jonathan closed the door on his car.

"By the way, it'd be good to have a good night rest. You look awful, like you only had 8 hours sleep. a week. Anyway, good night Jonathan"

Jonathan blushed as his name rolled off Evan's mouth and before Evan left for his car, he kissed Jonathan's hands, leaving Jonathan in a state of shock as Evan's car drove off.
------------------------------
The next morning, Jonathan was shocked at how well he slept that night and how early he went to bed. It was almost scary that he didn't wake up sweating and scared. He remembered that he hasn't slept peacefully like that since he was in high school. Before the incident. As a matter of fact, he realised he wasn't jolted up by a bad dream at the library yesterday.

Jonathan blushed as he remembered Evan.

He arrived late at uni and sure enough, Evan was still parked again on his parking spot. Just like the day before, the spot next to it was still empty.

Since it was around lunch time, Jonathan sat outside in an empty chair, pulling his laptop out, placing it on the table in front of him"

"Jonathan? Where were you this morning and last night?" Luke asked, concern clearly written in his voice. He sat across Jonathan dropping his bag on the chair next to him. "I couldn't reach you when I called your phone"

"Oh. I'm sorry. I woke up late and fell asleep early" I replied

"Really? It's not that you were avoid me right?"

"What? No. I really did sleep"

'And I was trying to avoid you until the incidents with Evan made me forget' he thought.

"That's good"

"Huh? What is?"

"That your not ignoring me and that your sleeping properly now. You haven't done that since high school"

Silence.

"You... Don't hate me?"

Luke laughed "what's with the change of topic? And no... I could never."

"But... Friday"

"Yes. You confessed. But you didn't do anything that could make me hate you is there?"

"But I'm a faggot Luke! You should hate me. You... You should be disgusted. You shouldn't even want to talk to me"

"Don't be stupd J. Just because you think that, doesn't mean everyone else does, okay?" Luke glanced at his watch and stood up "and I'm hurt you would think so little of me. I would never intentionally hurt you. You know that right?"

Pain reflected on Luke's eyes and I regreted ever saying or even think about the idea that he would belittle the friendship we had. "I know...I'm sorry" I whispered. He let out a sigh and smiled. "I know. Anyway, I have to go to my lecture. Go get something to eat please. Knowing you, you probably won't eat lunch"
Luke messed Jonathan's hair as he left. This usually made Jonathan flustered and blushing but a man whose walking towards his table, made him forget everything.

"Your car is still on my spot" Jonathan stated as Evan sat across him.

"Well I would've changed it if it wasn't for your car being in my spot" Evan laughed. "So you can't really blame me now can you?"

"But you got here earlier than I did. So technically it's still your fault"

"But I did try you know. You gotta give me credit for that"

"Credit for what?"

"Credit for being that new guy who's trying so hard for a certain person to notice him so he parks at the wrong spot so he could have a conversation about it and maybe, just maybe, get to know him better. Or something like that" Evan looked directly at Jonathan's eyes and gave him a sheepish smile.

Upon hearing this Jonathan blushed as his heart pounded. He could feel the butterflies in his stomach going haywire.

"And it seems that person just noticed that I'm interest with him and now I just noticed I half confessed my feelings to that person. And now I realised I'm talking about all these out loud and I should shut up now."

Evan turned his head away from Jonathan's view as a blush started to creep up on his face. But to no avail, Jonathan spotted the rosy cheeks and giggled which was music to Evan's ears.

A few giggles after silence revolved around them and the now giggly man became serious and stared at Evan with sadness.

"Im... I'm sorry" Jonathan said "I-I just. It's too soon and i'm not ready for that"

Evan studied Jonathan's features and moments later said "I understand"

Evan stood up and Jonathan followed his actions with his head. "Shall we go? Next class is in 5 min"

Jonathan blinked a few times and the wheels started turning in his head again. "Oh hehe yeah" said Jonathan embarrassed.

The all-ready Evan walked behind Jonathan while he was still getting his things ready and bent down right next to Jonathan's ear. Evan's hands were on the table on each side of Jon, locking him up from escaping.

Jonathan could feel the heat behind him and especially the one on his ear which caused him to blush. Jonathan though it was weird. He felt safe. Like really really safe. It scared him. It was the first time he ever felt that way for a long time. He didn't know if he liked it or was scared of it. Well, not that he could really think about it much cause all he could really think about was Evan.

"I'm still not going to give you up afterall" Evan whispered as he kissed Jonathan on his head.
