Rain In His Eyes (A Jaspar AU)

Chapter Two He Owes Me A Fiver

Joe:

I smile at him, he turns his head, and I see a red flush go across his cheeks. He's really cute.

"Joe what bed do you want?" I hear Caspar ask.

"You can pick it doesn't matter to me." He go's and puts his stuff on the bed closest to the left side of the room.

I walk to the bed on the right side of the room and lay me luggage there.

"Caspar? You never answered me, where are you from?" I ask for the second time.

"I'm from South Africa and moved to England when I was younger."Caspar answered.

"Thats cool." I said.

I look at Casper from across the room. He looks so innocent yet there's something about him that screamed I'm afraid. I want to ask him what was wrong but I didn't want to seem creepy. There was also another look in his eyes. I couldn't quite figure out what it was. He looks so so happy almost ecstatic. But he told me he didn't want to be here. Well that's the impression he gave. He's different I don't want to mess with him. He makes me feel safe, and happy. What the fuck Joe. Shut up.

"I'm off the kitchen Caspy!"

Caspy? Really Joe? So stupid. I exited our room and walked down the hallway.

When I heard the door open and close behind me I turn around to find Caspar coming towards me.

"Hey wait up! Joe! Wait!" He shouted down the hall. He starts running to catch up with me. "Is there a fire that I can't see, or something?"

"No there isn't I'm just really hungry." I lie through my teeth. I just wanted to get away from this intoxicating man next to me.

"Oh. Ok. I have some chips in my bag. You want some?"

I couldn't say yes. But this boy... I couldn't stay away. He probably wasn't gay though. I mean, not that I would mind. I shook my head.

"Nah. I've got to meet a friend."

The friend was Zoe, but still. I needed to see her now. She and Nash were the only ones who knew I was gay.  Ugh. And Caspar was Beautiful.

I find Zoe in the courtyard hanging off of Alfie's arm.

"Zoe!" I yell to her. She looks over to me while I walk over to her. "Can I talk to you, alone. Please?"

"Of course Joe you can talk to me I'm your older sister." She grabs my hand and halls me away. "What's up Joe? Is something wrong?"

"Nothing is wrong but I want to tell you something." I say.

"What is it?! Spit it out Joe!"

"I think I like someone. Ok I think I have a crush on my roommate." I say.

"Thats so cute. Who is he Caspar Lee.  I love when he talks to me directly, when smiles, when he's blushing, or when He thinks of something. What should I do? What if he isn't gay or bi?"

"Joe that sounds like what me and Alfie sound like. Are you sure its a crush and not love?" She asked me.

I thought for moment. What if it wasn't just a crush? What if it was love?

"I don't, I don't know Zoe. I don't know."

Just then Louis comes running up.

"Hey mate. How are you doing? Haven't seen much of you. Who's your roommate?"

I swallow. Zoe looks at me expectantly.

"Oh. Some new kid."

Louis grabs my shoulder.

"Dude. Just tell me."

I turn to face him. I gulp back my fear.

"Um I have a crush on my roommate."

Louis face light up.

"I KNEW IT! YES! ALFIE OWES ME A FIVER!"

"LOUIS SHUT UP!" I shout at him. "Don't tell anyone! No one knows that I'm gay."

"Ok calm down I won't tell anyone. Whats his name, then?"

"His name is Caspar Lee, and I think I love him."

Louis looks at me. He smiles. Then hugs me tightly.

"IM SO PROUD OF YOU BRO!"

I smile back at him. Only,
Little did I know, Caspar stood behind me.
