Opposites Attract (BoyxBoy)

7. Love's Dangerland

   "Bloody hell! Boyfriends?" Liam almost choked on his cocktail, "That is so strange." "I think it's sweet!" I answered back to him. "And Rayegen calls him angel?" Liam continued to rant, "Well given the latest update, I wont be surprised if Rayegen calls you that any day now." He pointed his fork at me. "Oh no!" I stopped him, "That's just for Aldfrith."

    "Seriously though!" Liam called back. "I don't know about that" I smirked. "Oh sure he will, just got to let him taste your lipsalve." I only looked downwards at my trousers. Yep sure enough that remark turned me on.

   The waitress came over and handed Liam his food. I waited until Liam was given his before I ate. "Has it got a lot of cheese?" Liam asked. "No but you do..." The waitress ruffled her aipron. Liam snickered as she walked away. Another waitress slapped her ass as she walked by. "Slut" I observed. "Which one?" Liam said.

   We began to eat. Liam shuffled closer next to me so we could talk. "So?" he began, "how is he?" He asked. I looked at him. "Matt?" I only continued eating. "I wouldn't know" I answered. I attempted to conclude but Liam was on to me. "Oh come on!" he was beginning to go to far. "I don't want to talk about that." He widened his vision. "Oh. Ok." He started to laugh. "Have you some sort of homo crush on Matt?" he riggled in his chair.

    I almost spat out my drink. "Excuse me?" I asked rather loudly. A few people looked over. "Oh come on. I saw how you and Rayegan looked at him." He was starting to walk on thin ice. And no I will not alert the fish! I pointed my fork at him, "You are on thin ice Liam." He raised his hands to surrender. "But seriously though?" Liam continued. "What?" I became impatient. "Do you have a crush on your dance teacher?" Liam twirled the dead sparkler in his cocktail.

   "If you want to know the obvious Liam just ask it." I became serious. Liam hesitated. He pushed a prawn around on his plate, but finally faced me. "Are you gay?" he asked. My heart fluttered, just like it always used to with him. "Yes" I said boldy, "now if you'll excuse me I need the toilet." And I left the table. Leaving Liam alone with that thought.

   I went into the toilets. It was empty and so I locked the door. I stared into the mirror. This time I faced the red eyed demon myself. He looked deep into my eyes. It was like he was trying to hypnotise me. I mouthed, 'Fuck off' to it but it only laughed.

    It stuck it's tongue out at me and I did the same. I assumed I couldn't talk to it out loud as so nobody would hear me so I only mouthed, 'Who are you?'. It tilted it's head to the side. I found some red lipstick by the sink and I got an Idea. I wrote on the mirror with the lipstick, 'Who are you?" The demon then wiped his hand over the lipstick, and as he did so, the writing changed into his answer: "A visitor". 

   "What do you want?"

   "You"

   "Why?"

   "You're perfect"

   "I don't know what you mean"

The demon then screamed at me and shattered the mirror.  I didn't back away. I've seen enough from it. I unlocked the door and went into one of the cubicles. I sat on the lid and held my head. I couldn't go back to that table. Not with Liam knowing. Is this all a dream? God I wish it was. Suddenly my thought was cut off by my chest burning like fire. I breathed deeply and heavily to calm myself down. It began to work and so I  stood up. 

   Just then I had an idea. A crazy, stupid idea. More stupid than anything. I slowly slid my hands down and undid my jeans. I slid them off my legs and removed my boxers. I then hid them behind the toilet pump and placed my jeans back on. I felt so devious. So naughty. Then my chest pain returned. This time more and more painful. The red hot flames traveled from my heart up to my face where it burned like the walls of hell. Like a whip slashing me across my face in all directions. I slammed the cubicle door and the pain released. I opened my eyes and my vision was tinted red. I rubbed them and It became clearer.
