Chapter Three

~Author's Note~

Alright time to kick it up a notch. Things between Adam and Tommy are gonna heat up.

Adam's POV:

I knew we were in St. Cloud to visit Emily, but I was planning to stay a while. I didn't have to be anywhere for a few weeks, and these girls were obviously infatuated with Tommy and I. I sat down next to Emily on her bed and grabbed her hand. Katherine stood up and walked out of the room, which I wasn't surprised at. She didn't like social situations; I could tell that much.

                Emily looked down at her stuffed animal, "How long are you guys staying in St. Cloud? Don't you have to be somewhere any time soon?" She asked, a little depressed.

              "We're free for about a month. So we might be here for a week or so," Tommy replied. I looked at Emily and wrapped my arm around her. She smiled and leaned into it.

               "Wait until I get to school and tell everyone that Adam Lambert and Tommy Joe Ratliff were at my house. My ex boyfriend will be soooo jealous..."

                "He likes us?" I asked.

                "Like is an understatment. He says you're both beautiful."

               Tommy and I both blushed at this, and I ran my hand through my hair. "When does school start for you?" Tommy inquired.

                Emily checked her phone, "In a week or so. I go to a private school and it will be my junior year."

                "Private school? Is it like a school for overachievers or what?" Tommy questioned again. He looked over at me and smiled gently, then refocused.

                    "It's a Christian school. I'm a....a christian," she stuttered.

                    Tommy and I nodded awkwardly, knowing that christians are supposed to hate gays. "Does that mean you can't talk about gays and lesbians at school?" I asked.

                    "No, and I don't know if the school would accept you if you supported gays or anything, but I support gays, I don't share that, and I'm a..." She didn't finish that, but I could guess that she was bisexual from her clothing and her actions.

                      I smiled, "I get it. You're still in the closet, right?"

                      Emily smiled and nodded. "I never want to come out. My parents would hate me, my friends would hate me, I'd have to switch schools....my life would be ruined by who I am."

Emily had given us the 'okay' to stay overnight at her place. Katherine slept in bed with Emily, and Tommy and I were given her parents and brother's room for the night. Tommy and I just decided to take her parents room instead of messing up two rooms. I layed down in the bed and looked up at the ceiling. It made me feel good that I made one my fans happy beyond her wildest dreams, but I still felt conflicted about Tommy.

"Adam, are you still awake?" Tommy whispered.

"Yeah I am."

"About earlier...are we going to be something? I mean..."

I turned over to look at Tommy. His brown eyes sparkeled in the dim light  coming from the hallway in the house. "That depends. Do you want to be something?"

He gave me a confused look, "Adam, do you like me?"

I shrugged a little, "Tommy, you're a beautiful, sexy guy, and I've been attracted to you since we met." I suddenly became really nervous, thinking that Tommy didn't like me the same way or that not wasn't the right time or something else...

Tommy was silent for a few minutes. I started thinking of a way to take it back. "Adam...." He started. I sighed quietly. "I like you too."
