CH.8 - helping him

Jake's pov:

It's been a few hours and johnnie left me in the living room so he can shower and get changed. I've done 3 of his missing assignments and I've emailed some of his teachers about late work and was he can get some extra credit. I don't completely know why Johnnie feels the need to hide that he's struggling but I'm glad I brought it up. I knew something was wrong and I just hope that now he feels like he can talk to me about things. I don't ever want him to think he has to hide his feelings or problems from me. I mean, I'm his boyfriend. I'm the one person he should be allowed to be vulnerable with.

"You want a drink?" Sam asks, scarring the shit out of me

"Holly fuck, uh...yeah sure."I turn to face him

He walkes over to me and hands me some kind of mixed drink with alcohol. I roll my eyes before opening the can and taking a sip.

"What are you working on?" He asks as he takes a seat on the couch

"I'm just helping Johnnie with his work." I smile

"He's finally letting you help him? That's good." He smiles

"Mhm!"

Just then Johnnie walks into the living room. He's wearing my pajama bottoms and one of my old hoodies that he stole from me back in highschool. I blush as he walks closer and sits down next to me.

"Do you want me to talk over?" He asks as he looks at the laptop

"No, I told you that I'd help you."

"Fine, but do you want to put on some pajamas? It's getting late." He asks

"Yeah, I probably should." I set the laptop down on the coffee table before standing up
"Sam, make sure he doesn't touch the laptop. He doesn't need to be doing any more work." I smile before walking into my room

I change our if my normal clothes into a random pair of pajama bottoms and a T-shirt. I walk back into the living room and see Sam on the laptop with Johnnie crossing his arms.

"What's up?" I ask Johnnie as I sit down

"He wanted to see how much work you were doing and I didn't let him so now he's upset." Sam rolls his eyes

"No, you literally took the laptop out of my hands." Johnnie argues

"Yeah, because you wanted to finish the assignment." Sam hands the laptop back over to me
"I finished the assignment you were working on and started another one. It's pretty easy so you should be able to figure it out." He smiles before getting up
"I should probably go, see you guys tomorrow." He smiles as he walks out of the room

Some time.passes and I can tell that Johnnie is getting tired but he's refusing to fall asleep. The room is quite other than the show that's playing on the TV.

"I don't get how you have time to help me out." Johnnie sighs

"What do you mean?" I tilt my head, not looking up from the screen

"I mean, you have your own school work to do and you have a full time job but you can easily make room to help me. How?"

"I'm taking the easiest classes I can." I admit
"I still haven't picked a major so I'm way more behind than you." I let out a soft giggle
"And my job isn't full time, I only work on weekends now."

"You still haven't picked out a major?"

"Nope, and I'm not stressing about it. I'll pick something when it comes to me." I smile

"I don't get how you can be so chill about that." He laughs

"I don't know, I just am." I say as I finish the assignment that Sam started
"Anyways, enough school talk." I shut the laptop and put it on the coffee table
"You only have 1 more assignment left and it's not due till the end of the week."

He looks at me with a smile. I can't help but smile back. I look Johnnie up and down, blushing at houw cute he looks in my cloths. I lean in closer and kiss him. God, I've missed his touch. I feel sparks light up inside me, likes it's out first kiss all over again. I pull away before standing up and taking his hand.

"Let's go to bed." I smile
"I know your tired and you have class tomorrow."

"Are you sure? I can slay up a little longer." He suggested

I look at the time and see that it's 10 at night. I shake my head no.

"I know you'll be upset at yourself in the morning, let's just go to bed." I say before dragging him to his room

"Can we actually sleep in your room tonight?" He asks

"I guess, why though? We always sleep in your room." I ask as we head down the hallway

"I've been alone in my room for to long. I don't want to go in there." He admits

"That's fine." I smile as we make it to my bed

We both get in bed and I kiss him goodnight. He cuddles up to me and I start to play with his hair. I make sure not to fall asleep until I know that he's fully knocked out. It takes a few minutes until I hear soft snores coming from him. I smile before closing my eyes and drifting off to sleep.
