My Darkest Love

Chapter 2

I wanted to look away but it was as if the world around us faded into nothingness. Every voice was cancelled by a single glance. He had me in a chokehold, waiting for one of us to break the line of sight. "Class this is Malachi. He will be joining us for the rest of the semester. Please be kind as he is foreign to our country and will need help with learning."

"Oo, he is so manly. Don't you think?" Crista whispered as she tapped my desk. 

 I gulped in fear since I knew nothing of this guy and what he is capable of doing to someone like me. "Take a seat in the back next to Luca."

Shit...Shit...Shit!

I immediately turned away and tried my hardest to make it look like I was busy. There was no way I could sit next to this guy all year. Fuck me man. 

"Hello Luca." Oh my God.....his voice! It was so deep and angelic. It made the hairs on my neck stand straight up. 

"H...Hi." I stuttered. What a great first impression. I turned away again praying that he would just ignore me. 

"It's a pleasure to meet you." He replied, only this time he scooted closer to me in his seat. 

"Same to you. Now if you don't mind I need to work." I gave him a smile and faced the front of the classroom as the teach began her lesson. 

Soon enough class ended and Malachi had left me alone. I gathered up my school books and started to make my way to my next class before someone grabbed my arm. 

"May we speak?" Malachi asked.

"I uh..need to get to class."

"I happened to glance at your schedule and you have a free period. Walk with me."

I fidgeted with my hands; trying to come up with an excuse but nothing came to mind. 

"Sure."

We walked for a few minutes before he decided to pull me into a dark classroom. "There is something about you Luca. Something that excites me."

"I uh..I don't understand." I backed myself into a desk. Malachi had moved forward and barricaded me between his arms. "Cute."

"Excuse me?"

Malachi moved even closer to where his lips barely touched my neck. I could feel his hot breath running across my neck and face. A faint smell of peppermint coming from him. "Could...you please back away."

"You seem to not like this but something says otherwise."

I gulped and glimpsed down at my pants to see I had a boner. 

"Luca, have you ever kissed a boy before?"

No way in hell have I ever kissed a boy let alone a girl. My family always forbade hat kind of stuff. They refuse to let me even be with a girl alone in the same room. My father was very religious and raised me to believe being gay was a sin. I wasn't allowed to think of dirty acts or date anyone unless they were Christian. 

For the longest time I truly believe I was more than this Christian boy who grew up under so many rules. I wanted to find my real identity, even if it meant losing my parents. Once I had my own phone, I used it to look up anything that pertained to the idea of being gay. I did know I had to be something when I felt hot and bothered by men than I did with women. I often jerked off to men's magazines, not that anyone needed to know that. I had to hide myself from the world to protect my sanity and image. If anyone found out I liked boys, I'd be alone forever. 

"No and I don't plan to."

"Bummer, I was really hoping you would."

"Listen, I don't go around kissing boys I just met and I obviously don't like boys like that either. I like girls and that's final."

"What a shame. You are cute though. See you around Luca." Malachi started to make his way but something in me overcame the fear of not knowing. I rushed and yanked on his jacket causing Malachi to trip and fall into me. Thankfully Malachi grabbed ahold of the desk and prevented us from falling to the ground. 

"You alright?"

"Yeah..um..Sorry."

"What was that about?" Malachi muttered.

"I uh. Wanted to...um.." I couldn't say it without feeling embarrassed. 

Malachi seemed to know as he leaned forward and brushed his lips against mine. That tingling sensation overflowing from my lips. God I wanted more. 

"Kiss me."
