Derek's POV

Ever since we exchanged head, me and Adrian have been sleeping together in his room, barely able to both fit on his bed. We needed to do that. We've gotten closer since that experience. We're sleeping together in just pants or shorts, so we can just have skin to skin contact. He's been so sweet and I have never been more in love with someone before now. 

"Hi," Adrian says to me, despite me having my eyes closed. 

"Hi, angel." 

"Do you wanna do something today?" he asks. 

"Kind of." 

"Like what?" 

I open my eyes and I'm met with the sight of the only person I want to see. We had a game last night, and we lost, but we're still sitting at an 8-3 record, which is solid. We are still a very good team, and if we keep playing the way we are for the rest of the year, we'll probably be a top 25 team in the country. Me and Adrian are still playing at an insane level, we just happened to lose the game last night. 

"I was thinking that since Devin already knows that we're together, what's stopping us from telling everyone else?" I ask. "Or at least just everyone that's really close to us. Like DeShaun, Kai, Jax, Aaron, and Cam," I suggest. 

Adrian's face lights up and he kisses my cheek, something that he does all the time and I love it. It just feels sweeter and more genuine than a lip kiss. I kiss him on the forehead all the time, especially when we're standing, because it's the easiest part of him to kiss when we're both standing. 

"That would be awesome. What gave you the idea to tell everyone now?" he asks. 

"I don't know. I just feel like you've wanted a boyfriend to be open with for a while, and I want to be with you forever, so coming out would sweeten the deal, you know?" 

"I would love to do that, Derek. I seriously can't thank you enough for wanting to do this. This genuinely means so much to me. You have no idea how amazing you're making my life. You're the best boyfriend I could've ever asked for," he tells me. 

"I'm glad I make you happy, Adri. Now, how should we tell everyone?" 

"I don't know. Get them all in one place. Maybe invite them all for dinner somewhere and tell them all that we're dating," he suggests. 

"That sounds like a plan." I kiss his temple and he smiles at me before I swiftly wrap my arms around him and pull him on top of me. 

"I like your body," he says, his fingers tracing my chest. 

"Is that all you like about me?" 

"No, I like your face too. And your hair. And your personality. Basically everything about you is perfect," he tells me. 

I hug him and he hugs me back. "I like those things about you too. You're very cute." 

"Thanks. You're handsome." 

"I prefer being called sexy, but any compliment from you is a win for me," I state. 

"You're also sexy. You're also very cute. Your face is so pretty and your body is the kind that I would want on top of me," he whispers seductively. 

"Are you horny?" 

"Yeah." 

"Uhh, I think it's kind of too early for me to want to do something," I tell him. 

"That's fine. Just being here with you is enough." 

"Do you want to shower first?" I ask. 

"Why don't we shower together?"
