Pen Pals

Chapter 8

Daniel's P.O.V.

Joey and I get escorted down to the showers by our guards. Being in jail makes me feel disgusting so i'm going to scrub everything um, really well.

"Quit hiding, Joey. I can see everything you have," I comment to Joey over the tiny wall separating us. He glares at me.
"Daniel, I miss my privacy. I need this. Okay? Leave me alone," he says rinsing the soap out of his hair.
"Whatever you say Joseph," I say putting a bit more soap into my hair.
"Fuck. It's in my eye it is in my eye," Joey says grabbing his face in pain. I walk around our little barrier and grab his face to flush out the soap.
"Come on, Joey. You need to get it out," I tell him placing one hand on his back and one on his face helping him get the soap out. He starts laughing inmediatley when he looks down.
"I'm bigger than you. I kean, you're still pretty big but I got you beat," Joey says laughing harder and looking me in the eyes. I would be offended, but...
"I'm taking a cold shower, Graceffa," I whisper in his ear. His whole body shudders as I place a kiss on his neck and walk back over to my shower to wash.

"Shut the fuck up Ryan," I hear the all too familiar voice of Preston yell.
"Make me twink," Ryan replies loud enough for it to echo in the showers. And then we hear some bone crushing punches sent from Preston to Ryan's jaw. Soon after several guards rush over to them, Ryan on the ground in pain and Preston rushing to swing at him again.

"Oh m-my god," Joey says to me. We both grab towels and wrap them around ourselves. I reach to him and pull him next to me, leaving my hand on his shoulder.
"It's okay. They're going to be okay," I tell him to make sure he doesn't freak out. I mean, I would love for them to not be okay. Then they would never talk to Joey again. But I know that would crush him so I just have to shake it off.

We walk back to our cell with our guards, Joey is a bit shaken up from watching them fight. We lay down on my bed, joey laying directly on top of me and I am propped up a bit.
"Joey will you be my boyfriend?" I say rubbing his back. His whole body freezes as he looks up at me.
"W-what, Daniel?" Joey says looking at me wide eyed while shaking.
"I never officially asked you and I know that I care for you. So, will you be my boyfriend?" I repeat with a very hopeful smile bleeding around my face.
"I don't know, Daniel. Do you really want a relationship that started in jail?" Joey says looking a bit concerned.
"Well, if we wait until we get out, we'll be in our forties. And I don't think I can wait that long to hold you as my boyfriend," I say looking away. This boy has hit a spot on me that no one else has.
"Okay. I'll be your boyfriend. But you still can't watch me pee!" He says standing up and running from me.
"Oh, I plan on watching you do more than just pee," I say going after him. He really doesn't have much space to run from me.

Our giggling and laughing ends when I hear my guard slam on our bars. I had Joey pinned to the wall so I slowly release him.
"Daniel, you're moving cells," my guard says opening the door and walking towards me to handcuff me.
"We won't run around again I promise please, just let me stay," I say as he wraps the cold metal around my wrists.
"It's not that. We need to switch you with another cell mate. They got into a fight earlier and we need to separate them," he says dragging me out of the cell.
"Daniel!" I hear Joey yell as he drags me way down the hall, and another, and another.

"Your new cell mate is Preston. Ryan will now be with Joey," the guard tells me as my body instantly floods with rage.
"Officer, please. Trade me back to Joey and put Ryan somewhere else! Please!" I say as he rolls the door back shut and locks the door.

"Away from your, what is it now, pen pal?" Preston says. I'm not facing him but I can hear the smirk plastered on his stupid little face.
"Am I going to have to listen to you fuck yourself every night little dick?" I say turning around to see Preston crimson with a very scared look on his face.
"That's why I beat the fuck out of Ryan, for telling people about that," he retorts rubbing his face.
"I'm sure you need all the compensation you can get, Preston," I say walking over to my bed.
"Awh don't be that way, Daniel. Ryan told me all about his relationship with Joey. They have already fucked and you didn't even know it," he says causing my body to explode.
"You know damn well that Joey did not fuck him, Preston," I say clenching my jaw and fists wanting to wipe this smirk off his damn mouth.
"Well, why don't you ask him later then?" Preston finishes off his words and then closes his eyes. We don't get to have breakfast this morning so we have to wait a few hours until lunch.

For the few hours that went by, all I could think about was Joey and Ryan fucking. I mean who knows, maybe they have. And now it is easier for them to since they are in the same cell! I have to ask Joey. Because if they are, we are going to be over.
