Cream Away the Bliss

November 14, 8:45:
It was the weekend, a time that Hanschen longed for every week. Those were the days he actually had time to spend with Ernst. Sure he maybe had and hour or so after school to spend together, but most of the time it was rushed due to homework or dinner, or Ernst's parents coming home early. The weekend was the time he could spend hours on end with him. No worries, just them; stress free. So Hanschen woke up Saturday morning with a grin on his face. He was going to see Ernst, and today would be a day he wouldn't forget. He knew it.

  Him and Ernst just started dating. Well it wasn't official, they just started hanging out more and kissed once or twice. Three times actually, but he definitely wasn't keeping track... but Hanschen was curious if Ernst and him really were a thing. I mean, he enjoyed the time he spent with Ernst (enjoyed was an understatement), and he felt like Ernst felt the same way. Even though people say Ernst was as transparent as a window, it felt like Hanschen could never really comprehend what Ernst was feeling. But he went delusional every time he thought of Ernst's lips on his. He looked in the mirror that was in his room and combed his hair. He wanted to look messy. Not like frumpy messy, but a cute messy. Ernst liked it when his hair was a bit ruffled. Once it was like he wanted it, Hanschen threw on some casual clothes and sat back on his bed. He pulled out his phone and pulled up Ernst's contact. He pressed the message symbol and texted, "Hey cutie! Can I come over today?" He quickly deleted that. It sounded like too desperate, and that's the last thing he wanted to appear as to Ernst. It just made no sense to him.. He had so much swagger and was always so collected, but lately he'd felt like a buffoon in front of Ernst. I mean they'd hung out before he developed feelings for him, but it's just totally different now. Now he feels butterflies and he just always had the urge to make a move on Ernst, but he just couldn't manipulate him like that. Ernst was just too good for that, too sweet. He retyped the text. "Hey, do you mind if I come and crash for the day!?" He sent it. He wasn't sure if he said the right thing, or if it sounded to intrusive, but he didn't care. He put his phone back in the pocket of his jeans and went to the bathroom. He was not going to do anything with Ernst with bad breath.  As he was brushing his teeth, he felt a buzz in his pocket. He quickly finished brushing his teeth, wiped his mouth, and checked his notifications. Ernst had texted him back, almost immediately. "Yes definitely! I'd love for  you to come. How about 11? If that's good for you.." Hanschen felt a rush of excitement. "Perfect, see you then ;)" he replied. He was ecstatic and filled with hope about today. It almost felt unnatural to him.
