The Right Timing

Chapter 4: Did That Just Happen

(James' POV)

As I walked into school I saw a sign next my locker. The sign read:

"Jerome Markus' Locker"

I thought it was cute and I loved his first name. He had little emoji stickers on it too with his favourite quotes from his favourite singers. I was surprised when I saw the quoted because they were all from the same artists I listen to also. One thing for sure is if you and I can stand each others music, trust me we are already a couple.

As I looked in my locker grabbing my books a letter caught my eye. The letter read:

"For him,
I know I met you just yesterday and it was your birthday and you deserved present but you were my present and I can't wait to see what memories we have together,
Love,
J.M."

I started blushing while still looking at the note when Cori grabs my arm and says,"Now queer bait you're gonna be late for class if you keep daydreaming!"

"How'd you know I was daydreaming?" I say smiling a little.

"James when you're daydreaming you really suck at hiding it." He says laughing.

As he drops me off at photography class we hug. Then Cori whispers loudly,"Tell Jerome to use a condom!"

I then turn around and give him a smirk and roll my shoulder. We both start laughing as we walk away. I walk into the class and see Jerome drawing two hands grasping each other. The background was in space and had heart bubbles floating around. "That's amazing Jerome!" I say with enthusiasm. He jumps a little and then practically screams,"James!"

We sit down and start talking about our favourite things and funny ideas.
I love mainly love photography class for this main reason. I get to talk to Jerome and no one bothers us. Its just he and I and its so peaceful. As class goes on Jerome then asks,"Hey you wanna take a bus downtown to start our project? I already asked my mom and she doesn't care. We could take a bus there and back. We could also take pictures, eat dinner, and then go home."

"Yeah sure my mom wouldn't care but don't you have a different bus stop?"

"No I see that you take a bus to Bellevue and I live in Bellevue too."

"Oh my god really! Where do you live so we can hangout some time?"

"I live with my mom and brother in the neighbourhood called Madison something."

"Omg I live like two minutes away from there! We need to hang out!"

"We should!"

(Time skip to end of school)

Jerome and I skip out of the hellish hole. I can't tell you how much I hate school. From the frequent homework to the stuck up bitches. Ugh. Let's just say school can rot in hell.

We walk to this little place in Bellevue called Nashville West where for some reason everyone hangouts out. I don't know why but something attracts teenagers. Bet its the abandoned houses behind here. We then sit for the bus.

Around 3:40 the bus  picks us up. When we are dropped off in downtown I have no clue what street we're on. I have this thing where I know what a place looks like but thhe name of the place is incomprehensible. But as we walk I realize that we are next to the Gulch.
"Jerome can we go to the Gulch!? That's where I was going to do my project and they have a really good restaurant there too!"

"Sure I'd love to!"

As we walk I see a beautiful curb that has a very hipster looking building with the sun hanging over it. The building was painted in the background. It was perfect. "Jerome will you take my picture?" I asked him politely. Without hesitation or thought he said yes and opened his camera.

I sit on the curb looking to my right down the street. I have a very empty but serious emotion on my face. Jerome takes the picture. His jaw drops at the sight. "Holy shit. James why aren't you a model?!" He says showing me the picture. I loved it the picture was great."Hey, the picture can't be a picture with out the taker." I say giving him credit.

I then show him the way to the restaurant I was telling him about. It was a nice little Indian cultured restaurant called "Chahaun". I open then door for him. We find some seats and order some drinks and food. As we talk we get into personal backgrounds at which point we end up getting off the topic. I immediately here a *click*. I look at Jerome confused. He then exclaims that he was taking a picture. "How are you so photogenic even when you're not trying? You so freaking amazing at taking pictures."

"I don't know? Guess I get it from you."

Jerome blushes. His smile makes me smile.

We pay our bill  and leave. We get to the bus stop and sit on a bench sitting close so we don't freeze to death. The bus pulls up and we get on.

We sit down. Jerome leans his head on the window and puts in his ear buds listening to one of my favourite songs "ILYSB" by LANY. I start get tired and rest my head on his shoulder. He flinches at me resting my head but feels comfort once seeing it's me.

When we get to the bus stop in Bellevue, Jerome wakes me up so I can get up. We start to walk. As we were walking we start to make jokes and have genuine good conversations. He then tells me about his family life and telling me how his dad was an asshole but luckily he got to move in with his brother and mother."It might be awkward but trust me, I know you'll love them.

We finally get his house. As we walk in his mother, Serena, immediately gives Jerome a hug. "There you are I was wondering when you'd be home! And who's this, a boyfriend?" She says jokingly.

"Hi, I'm James. Its so nice to meet you!"

"Well aren't you a gentleman! If you guys need anything I'll be down here!"

"Ok thank you mom! Come one we can go to my room now."

As we walk to his room we pass his brother Jack. "Hey Joey Jack!" Says Jerome. Jack immediately pauses the game he is playing. "Bubba gump!" Screams Jack as he hugs Jerome. He then looks at me says,"I'm gonna call you Bubba blue because of your blue hair." I smile and kneel down. I rub his head and look into his blues eyes and say,"I'm gonna call little squirt!" Jack giggles and runs back to playing his game.

We walk into his room and I freeze. His room was astonishing! His room was straight out of tumblr. The flannel curtains matched his style. His baige walls matched his tan skin. His fairy lights made his green eyes sparkle and his platform bed with a wooden plank head board complimented his hair and personality. Him and I sit on his bed and talk.

About an hour later I we catch ourselves in each others glance. I can feel the chemistry between us. All of a sudden he grabs my neck and kisses me. I immediately feel a feeling I've never felt with any other person. I start to put some tongue in and then some.

It immediately starts to a make out sesh. He starts to kiss my neck and rap my body around his.

Oooohhh!!!
