Love Over War(A Jedtavius Story)

Oh, Crap(credits to Aoi4life)

{Jedediah POV}

I felt the usual sensation of the plastic wearing down. When this happens, it's kinda feels like wax is being melted off of you, but it don't burn.

I stand up and get out of my tent and onto my horse, Buck. I ride around, making sure everyone is well.

"Howdy! Hey there! Hey, fellas!" I wave to the townsfolk as Buck trots around town. I hear a framiliar voice call out my name.

"Jedediah!" Oct hollers. My face instantly lights up and my heart rate increases by like a million times.

I hop off or Buck and walk to him. Octavius practically jumps into my arms as I walk. I grasp him so if I fall, at least he's safe. I don't fall(thank goodness) and he looks at me and smiles deeply.

"I'm so happy to see you, Jed," He says, burying his head into the crevise of my neck.

"I missed you too, Hon." I replied. Oh God, I missed this man.

"Want to take a walk with me?" I ask.

"Mhm." He hums into my neck. Shivers go down my spine.

As Octavius and I were moseying down a dirt road, talking about whatever subject crosses our mind, the town priest, Father David, walks by and sees us holding hands. My face drops.

'Oh, crap' I think.

"HEY! YOU FAGS DONT BELONG HERE IN THIS TOWN. YALL WERE NEVER MEANT TO EXIST AND YALL ARE PATHETIC EXCUSES FOR MEN. WE DONT LIKE YOU QUEER FOLKS HERE!!!" Father David yells. He spits in my face and smiles, knowing fully that if I say anything, my position as Sheriff would be revoked.

Fuck.

I feel Oct's hand tighten.

"Oct, no." I whisper firmly.

Father David walks away, and thats when Octavius let's go of my hand and charges at Father.

'Here comes the thunder.' I think as Octavius let's go of my hand.

{Octavius POV}

The preist was yelling and screaming all of these homophobic things. It clearly made Jedediah sad, and I was NOT having it.

As soon as Mr. Preist walked away, I turn around, run at him and punch him in the back.

Hard.

"DONT EVER SPEAK TO JEDEDIAH OR I EVER LIKE THAT AGAIN, CLEAR?" I yell.

He turns around and right hooks me straight across the face. I go into a blind rage and tackle this guy. I pin him to the ground with one hand and repeatedly punch him across the face with the other.

It's not long before blood emerges. I faze out of rage and look at the red mess I've created. Looking at my hand, I see blood from him and I.

Oh goody.

I get off of him and step back into Jedediah's embrace. We are both facing the limping priest who screams curses at us and walks away, dragging one leg.

{Narrator POV}

'Oh, shit...' Octavius thought, panicking that he ruined Jed's life and that we would never be loved by anyone ever again and that he would be lonely for infinity and that he would die alone. He started to cry, holding on to Jedediah tighter.

'Oh, shit...' Jedediah thought. Octavius's ass looked super hot when he was fighting. It made him want to...

His thoughts were cut off by a silent cry. It was coming from Octavius.

"Let's go to my tent. It's not far from here."Jedediah offered. He got t the smallest sounding "okay" from Octavius.

They walked to his tent, hands by their sides, and heads down. He unzips his tent and lets the sad Octopus inside. He walks in and zips his tent.

Before he could even say anything, Octavius started rambling on about how he was sorry.

"IMSOSORRYANDIGETIFYOUDONTLOVEMEANYMOREBUTIJUSTWANTTOAAYTHATILOVEYOU-U-U-u-uh" The Roman Emperor broke down and hugged himself in fear of taking up too much space in the tiny tent.

"Heyheyhey, buddy. Slow down. Slow. Down. I still love ya. That was probably the hottest thing I've seen you do, and you've done some hot things before," Jedediah admits.

"*sniff* Really?" Octavius replied.

"Duh DOY." Jedediah responded. They hugged and Jedediah planted a kiss on the Roman's head.

"Larry here! 5 minute warning! I repeat, 5 minute warning." The intercom boomed throughout the museum.

"I should get headed back," Octavius said.

"One more thing before you go?" Jed nervously said.

"Oh yeah? And what's that?" Oct asked.

Jedediah held Octavius's cheek and kissed him. It was so needed. As Jedediah pulled back, Octavius pulled him in for another kiss. Their lips connected and it was pure bliss. Jedediah's fingers played with Octavius's hair.

Octavius pulled back. "Thank you for everything, Jed." He says.

"Anytime, kemosabe." Jed replied.

Everyone just got into their places in the nick of time. Before Jed froze, he saw the rising sun and said the last words of the night.

"Penis"
