Guy's Night Out- 9

Percy lifts me up by the waist and sits me on the counter between two sinks. I felt like i was going to break the marble granite. Though the marble granite slab is about 3 inches thick.

In my head, it was a jumble of ideas. they we're all contradicting each other and, what seemed to me, they we're battling each other. Also, there was Percy on top of me.

Gods, Percy.

A tingly feeling shoots up my spine and tickles the backs of my thighs. It felt all sexy and "in the moment" but probably looked like this:

A/N: yeah.. i found the GIF feature that wattpad updated...

Percy steps back a little. "Are you okay?" he whispers. "I would think you would be more accustomed to... this..."

I feel my cheeks flush bright red. "yeah, well. I hadn't really had any romantic-"I pause, searching for the right word."Encounters, before Nico."

He was my first time.  But i would never admit that to Percy.

I'd like to think that he thinks of me as more than "Nico's freak boyfriend".

But i doubt that he thinks that. 

But there's a chance he does think that.

"Are you sure you're okay? You didn't really answer when i asked the first time." Percy's black hair fell in front of his eyes. I resisted the urge to push it away.

I eventually gave in to said urges. Every time he blinked, the strands of hair twitched. After i swiped the hair from his eyes, i ran my hand through his hair. 

So. Soft.

He brings his hands to my face and cups them around my chin and jaw. The tips of his fingers flex against the back of my neck. I close my eyes, and we stand there for a while.

"How's your shoulder?" I ask, my voice eerily quiet.

"Don't worry about me. I'm fine." he sounds angry. I don't respond. I don't move. I just want to freeze, capture this moment. Keep it forever.

"You know what i think." he says this more as a statement, not like a question, as if i had said no, he would tell me anyway. 

"hm?"

"I think you, as a doctor, worry too much about your patients. You should take some time to, i use the term lightly, worry about yourself. That's part of the reason why we decided to take you to the city for a while." he pauses. "Call it... A guy's night out, if you will"

I rest my forehead in the area between his neck and shoulder. "What are the other reasons?" I ask, my voice muffled.

"Well, the obvious one, Nico. And--"

"Percy!! Where are yoouuu???" I hear Leo calling our names in very loud, out of tune singsong.

"Put your shirt back on. Quick, get in the stalls." Percy orders me in aggressive whispers.

"PERCY... Where aaaare y--" Leo opens the door. "Ohp there you are. Is Will in here too?"

"Here." My voice trembles, it does that whenever I'm nervous. I flush the toilet (though i didn't use it) and open the stall door. I proceed to wash my hands. 

"You guys okay in there?" Jason asks, opening the door.

"YES. POTTY PARTY. IN THE MALL." Leo dances a little.

I risk a nervous glance at Percy. The left side of his mouth goes up in a smile. It was a smile that said, "It's okay. They didn't find out. Stop worrying"

Hey guys. I wonder what kinds of stories you would prefer. Taking suggestions whenever DM me or just comment. 

*squints* I know what you want.

*squints more* You want more smut, don't you? 

Of course you do. I know your minds and stuff.... No, that sounds weird, I'm sorry.

ANYWAY. I read this awesome (that's right. It's worthy of bold and italics.) Its called Fans of the Impossible Life. I'm reading it for the third time now.

I'll copy a summary below directly from the back of the book. I do not own any of this, it was originally written by Kate Scelsa. Published by HarperCollins, 2015.

And here it is (the summary, not the entire book):

Ten months after her recurring depression landed her in the hospital, Mira is starting over at Saint Francis Prep. She promised her parents she would at least try to pretend that she could act like a normal functioning human being this time, not a girl who sometimes can't get out of bed for days on end, who only feels alive when she's with Sebby.

Jeremy is a painfully shy art nerd at Saint Francis who's been in self-imposed isolation after an incident that ruined his last year of school. when he sees Sebby for the first time across the school lawn, it's as if he's been expecting him.

Sebby, Mira's gay best friend, is a boy who seems to carry sunlight around with him like a back-lit halo. Even as life in his foster home starts to take it's toll, Sebby and Mira together craft a world of magic rituals and secret road trips, designed to fix the broken parts of their lives.

As Jeremy finds himself drawn into Sebby and Mira's world, he begins to understand the secrets that they hide in order to protect themselves, to keep each other safe from those who don't understand their quest to live for the impossible. 

  A captivating and profound debut novel about complicated love and the friendships that have the power to transform you forever, perfect for fans of The Perks of Being a Wallflower.
