Gym Class Love [Book 1]

I Think I Love You Better Now

Mr. Way's P.O.V

"-and so we really got blanketed in snow this weekend didn't we Barbara?" the weatherman was droning from the television. It was Monday morning and all I wanted to do was check and see if I needed to be at school or not. "All schools have been cancelled for the week due to the 12 feet of snow and below freezing temperatures! You all may want to find someone to cuddle up with and keep warm." chirped Barbara the news anchor a little too happily. I quickly ran to turn off the tv and get dressed. "You don't have to tell me twice!" I exclaimed as I was pulling on a t-shirt. I was just about to call Dobson, when a pair of arms snaked themselves around my waist. "You scared the hell out of me!!" I jumped and turned so I was pressed chest-to-chest with my boyfriend. He didn't say anything for a minute, just silently laughed as I controlled my breathing which was hard being this close to him. "Did you forget you gave me a key? I heard the news from Reeves almost an hour ago and I was waiting for your call..." Dobson was obviously taking advantage of the close proximity by whispering. I struggled to free myself from his grip, not because I didn't want him but because that idiot had left my door wide open when he came in. "Can we, uhh, shut the door?" I asked with a blush on my face. Dobson quickly stopped letting his hands roam my body, to turn toward the door. "The fuck? I swear I closed it.." he muttered as he crossed the room to close and bolt the front door. I breathed a sigh of relief but not for long because he was back, like he had never even left. He pushed me against the wall, letting his hands roam under my shirt and onto my sides. A quick glance to my eyes showed no objections and he slid his tongue into my mouth. This is how our days were spent, steamy make out sessions in our apartments or quickies wherever we could get one in. I wanted a real relationship but Richard was too scared of what our coworkers and students would think. I know that Jesse likes me and sometimes I wonder what it would be like if it were him kissing me right now. As pants and shirts are shed, I'm reminded why I chose Richard. He's kind, patient, and he loves me. Later in the day, after lunch and more kisses Dobson is laying on the couch watching the news. I can't help but think I'm a little selfish. I haven't told him about my kiss with Jesse yet, because he'd freak out. I don't want Jesse to get hurt but I also don't want to lose Dobson. Do I tell him, or not? It goes on like this for hours before I make my decision. "Hey, can I tell you something?" I asked to his back. He sits up on his elbow and looks at me over the back of my couch. "Yea, anything babe. I kinda have something I've been wanting to tell you also." he's looking at me expectantly as if urging me to go on so he can tell his story. I shuffle my feet, and chicken out. "How about you tell me yours first?" I ask with a half defeated smile. I swear it was a sense of déjà vu from valentines day because he was wearing that cheesy smile. "Ok, well I love you and you know that. I've had some time recently to do some thinking and take into consideration your side of things about the relationship. I think if you want a public relationship then dammit you should be able to have a public relationship. I'm willing to tell everyone now, because I can love you better than I could before and I want you to give me that chance." He said all of this with a determined look on his face, never taking his eyes from mine. I didn't know what to say, here he was willing to give me what I want and I was going to rip his heart out of his chest. I really am a horrible man. "So what do you think of my decision?" Dobson asked suddenly alight with a blush, rare but it happens to even him. "I-I love it and I want it. I want it more than anything. Well, I did want it." I said more nervous than I thought. His face fell. "My decision and yours rests on what I have to say." I was really about to just bullshit something up and say I was kidding, but something told me I needed to do this. "What were you going to tell me?" he asked solemnly. Here was my moment of truth. I took a breath and walked out from behind the kitchen counter.
