"George!" I hear someone shout which made him push me away and wipe his tears away.

"Henry, what are you doing here?" He asks the guy.
Henry? Who's Henry and why is he here?

"I should ask you!" Henry shouts before he looks to me "who's that?" he then asks "that's not important-" George says as he pulls the guy.

"You look healthy-" Henry comes closer to me but I feel anger towards him "are you even a friend of George?"

"Henry, that's enough!" George pulls him but Henry slap him away "don't touch him like that." I grab his wrist.

"what-" he looks at me with wide eyes "that's my little brother clay, stop it." George says "your brother?"

"Are you his boyfriend?" Henry asks "no, he's not!" George answers "doesn't look like it." he pulls his hand away.

"I won't let people hurt my friends." I say "what?" he looks confused at me "I'm a friend of George that's why I was protecting him."

"aha.." he makes before looking at George "we've to go home." Henry says to George before someone else joins.

"Where were you George?" I would guess Georges dad "dad- I was just with a friend out." George answers.

"You? A friend of George?" He gets closer "Hello, I'm Clay." I awkwardly smile at him. His dad looks at George and back to me "you wanna come over?" he pulls me with him.

"We'll have dinner together." his dad says while we walk to their car.

After we arrived at George's house, his mom welcomed me with a sweet smile.
"I'm so happy George finally got another normal friend." she smiles.

"It's been awhile since someone came over for dinner." Her arm constantly stays around me, even though she's shorter.

"Mom please." George sighs before I could sit down "you never told us something about your friend, George." his mom says.

We sit down and wait for George's mom to bring the food. "I'm sorry." George whispers "about what?" I turn my head to him "about this."

"I like it. I get to know your family like this." I smile at him "they're embarrassing when it comes to friends- normal friends." he says.

"Don't talk about your family like this. They're kind and just happy that I ain't one of your junkie friends." I say, he looks at me but says nothing.

After talking and eating for about an hour George and I went into his room. "It's kinda late, you can stay over If you like." George says, avoiding eye contact.

"Did I make you uncomfortable?" I ask "no- of course not!" George says "It's just- a little surprising that you came over."

"If you liked to I could go-" I point behind me "I understand if you don't like having someone stay over." I smile.

"No, I like that you're here! I couldn't make any plans- you know." he looks up to me. I laugh "whats so funny?" George asks "There's no need to make plans, George."

"I always do that, so I know what to do with the Person." he says "aha.. well is there anything you like to do?" I ask.

He stares into my eyes but doesn't say anything. His eyes move down to my lips and up to my eyes again.

His cheeks get red as he looks with love into my eyes. There's no talking or communicating, it's just staring.

I know what he wants.
But he's not a child, he can use words.

"So?" I raise an eyebrow, he sighs "lets just watch a movie." George annoyedly takes the remote control and turns the TV on.

I laugh before I sit myself down next to him.

"What are we watching?" I ask "I don't know, you tell me." he looks at me but before I could say anything his eyes moved down to my lips again.

"Horror?" I suggest "sure." he sighs as he puts on a movie. George leans back and crosses his arms while looking at the screen.

He looks annoyed.

"you're stupid." I laugh before I get closer to him "what do you-" he stops talking right after I places my hand on his cheeks.

His eyes glow, just like his cheeks, and move down to my lips once again. I feel a smile on my lips before I start to near myself to him.

A knock appears which made me move away immediately.
"I brought snacks." Georges mom enters the room.

"what happened?" she asks "we were just playing." George sighs "alright, well here you go." his mom places them down before leaving the room again.

An uncomfortable silence fills the room as we look back to the movie. I lay myself next to George while trying to concentrate.

It's not that possible since the room is filled with his Parfum. His room surprisingly doesn't smell like drugs or anything, it doesn't stink.

I catch myself staring at him.
Let's try one more time.

"George." I say his name which made him turn his head to me. Without hesitating I move to his lips and was about to kiss him-

When someone storms in.
"George! Those are my Chips!" His brother says before he snatches them from the table.

"Ugh get out!" George stands up before locking the door. I laugh "so where were we?" George looks with a smile at me "we were watching the movie." I smile back.

His smile drops as he stares at me.

"you dickhead-" he says before he claims on top of me "uhh~" I smirk before my face gets pullen to George's.

When the room suddenly goes dark.
"What-" I hear George whisper "what happened?" I ask "I don't know." he gets off me.

I hear how he unlocks the door and light shines on us. "The power went off." His dad tells us with a flash light.

"Oh- alright we'll stay in my room." George says as he walks back inside but his dad pulls him back.

"We'll stay together." his dad says "but-" George gets cut off "no 'buts' we won't let you guys alone now." His mom says.

I hear how George sighs but still walks to the living room, me following him.
