Gay. (Royce)

Chapter 11.

Chresanto watched Jacob say a sentence in spanish. He was intrigued by him to the fullest. Jacob was wearing a simple John Lennon Tee. He had on light, bleached pants with platforms on. He had his nose pierced. Chresanto now couldn't stop his endless feelings for Jacob anymore.

"Son las dos y nieve de la mañana." Jacob rolled his tongue.

"It's 2:09 in the morning?" Chresanto tried. "Is that right?"

"Yes!" Jacob squealed. "Finally. Let's take a break."

"Yeah, what not?" Chresanto said.

Jacob got up from the table and walked to the kitchen. He grabbed a beer from the refrigerator. Chresanto jumped up and grabbed it from him and shot him a vile look.

"Why you drinking?" Chresanto snapped. "You know damn well you had a problem."

"You don't run me and why would you care?" Jacob yelled, snatching it back. "I'm a fag! I'm gay; unholy! Remember!?"

"You being gay has not-"

"I'm saying you don't care!" Jacob yelled, cutting him off. "If you cared, you wouldn't tease me to the point were I want to KILL myself."

Jacob began to break down. Chresanto sat the beer down and held him. They crashed into the floor. Jacob was bawling on his chest. Jacob has been waiting for this for a while. He wanted to let it out.

"Why should you care about me drinking when you don't even care that I love you?" Jacob said, looking up at him, tears frozen in his eyes. "Chresanto?"

"W-What?" Chresanto said. "Y-You wha?"

"I love you and I wish I didn't!" Jacob yelled, as he started hitting him.

Chresanto tried to catch his arms, but Jacob wasn't letting off. Jacob was distraught. He was hurting. Chresanto grabbed them and let Jacob throw his head in his chest.

"I'm in love with you." Jacob cried. "And I hate it. It hurts so much."

"B-But..." Chresanto said. "I love you too."

Jacob looked up at Chresanto and scrunched up his face in confusion. He pushed him away and ran up the stairs. Chresanto got up and followed him. He looked both ways and heard water running. He opened the bathroom door and found a shirtless Jacob washing his face. Jacob dried it and looked at Chresanto through the mirror. Jacob grabbed Vaseline ® and rubbed it on his face.

"Why'd you walk away when I told you I-"

"Would you tell your friends we date?" Jacob asked. "Like Kevin, Na'Im, Spank, Joey, CRAIG, etc.?"

"Uh..." Chresanto hummed.

He'd be too embarrassed to tell them. Jacob chuckled in a non-humorous way. Chresanto was shamed. He was disappointed in himself.

"I'm sorry." Chresanto said as he turned to walk away.

But that was before Jacob turned him around and smashed his lips on Chresanto's.
