Once they reached there street Ness said he was going to grab some clothes so he could stay over for the weekend. I stepped into my house and saw my dad on the couch. He waved to me as I walked in. "Whatta doing home early?" Lucas rolled his shoulders. "The principal sent all the kids home early, because of the heatwave." His dad nodded. "By the way i'm having my friend over, don't worry we won't be loud." Lucas said. "Who?" "Ness. My friend?" Nodding again his dad looked back at the T.V. "Keep your door open." He said. That surprised Lucas. "Why?!" "Because I know you like that kid and I won't have my son dating some hoo-ha I don't know. Or like for that matter. You're not gay Lucas, I say so." This, made Lucas mad. "You hardly even talk to me! I can make my own life choices! If I like someone I LIKE SOMEONE!" His dad stood up making Lucas back away. "Do you want to be grounded?" Lucas looked down. "No....but-" "But what?" His dad hissed. Looking up, mad, upset, Lucas grabbed his keys. "Nothing...." He went upstair and closed his door anyway. He set his sketchbook on his desk, made his bed, and changed into his yellow and red P.Js. He heard the doorbell ring and peeked out his door to hear Ness' voice. His dad was saying, "No funny buisness..." Ness sounded confused. "Ooookaay?" He said. "Lucas is in his room." And with that his dad sat down turning the game on. "Thanks sir." Ness said politely and came up the stair. Freaking out trying not to seem like a stalker, Lucas jumped back grabbed a pencil and his sketchbook then started to draw a dog. Lucas used to have a dog. His name was Boney. He passed away at the perfect age of 16. His mom had Boney before Lucas was born, he died when Lucas was around 13. Visiting Ness then cheered him up. Ness knocked on the door and came in. Lucas looked up smiled and set his sketchbook on his dresser again. Ness was holding a bag containing his clothes. "Hey Lucas, I'm still amazed you drew your wall art." He said grinning at the baby blue walls with sunflowers on them. "There not that-" Ness shushed him. "Stop that, it's amazing, take the compliment and tell me what we're doing this weekend." Lucas rolled his eyes and said, "Well tomorrow you have a game, i'll be there, then we can do whatever you want." He looked away shyly. "I don't always plan ahead." Ness just shrugged and sat down next to Lucas. "Do I have to take off my hat? Or can I keep it on?" Laughing Lucas shook his head. "Whatever you're comfortable with!" Patting his hat Ness nodded. "Then it stays on! Heeey where am I sleeping?" Lucas giggled. "Didn't I tell you? Your sleeping on the carpet! I hope you brought a pillow!" With mock sadness Ness said. "W-what?! B-but Lucas! Isn't it the host job to make there guest comfy?!" With fake sternness, Lucas said back, "To bad, floor for you." Ness laughed for a moment, making Lucas blush, his dad called him, asking for help with moving something. "Ahhh b.r.b, stay here." Ness snorted, "Didn't I tell you I plan to jump out the window?" He said laying back on Lucas' bed. Rolling his eyes Lucas went to help his father.

When Lucas came back Ness was looking at his sketchbook. Panic shot through Lucas. "NESS NOOOO!" His face felt like it was on fire. "Wow Lucas!" Ness said casually. "You really like sunflowers! Do I really look this good?" He said showing Lucas a sketch of Ness laughing. "NESS! Please give it to me!" All he could see was Ness laughing at Lucas showing Paula, everyone noticing him, hating him, laughing....at HIM! But no, Ness shrugged and handed it to Lucas. "Chill dude, I like it! You must really study me!" You have no idea~ Crap. Ness looked confused at what Lucas thought but he shrugged it off. "Ha! You look like a tomato." Ness said snickering. "HMPH!" Lucas said crossing his arms and sitting down on the far side of the bed. Ness made a little crying sound, making Lucas worry he had hurt his feelings, "Ness, I didn't-" But then Ness jumped on Lucas pinning him down. "Fooled yea!" He said winking at me, and trigger blush, make sure there is extra red!

Ness' P.O.V

Lucas' eyes are pretty. Looking down at him Ness realized how red Lucas looked. Wow he must like him a lot. Anyway, back to his eyes. There not pure blue, there's a mix. Baby blue, ocean blue, you name it. And yet, they still shined like a clear day sky. Ness doesn't know why he's with Paula, maybe because he didn't want to hurt her feelings? Yeah that's it. But she doesn't give two horse craps about Ness'. Or others. He was this close to breaking up with her. Ness knew Lucas liked him. And Ness liked him to. Just as much as Lucas liked him. But he couldn't just leave Paula. Actually he could be then she would spread rumors. About Lucas. And he would get upset, and she would play victim. Euuck...Paula was a brat. Plus being gay at there school wasn't very popular. Mostly with Joe, the jerk bully. But back to Lucas. I never really felt like this about Lucas until I heard him overthinking...me. Ness didn't notice, because of certain thoughts, that Lucas was trying to push him off. "Ness! Get off me!" Making a fake yawning sound Ness fell down of Lucas his head resting on his chest. "I think i'm just gonna sleep here..." He said closing his eyes and snoring. "NOOOOO GET OFF!!" Lucas screeched. Ness laughed and rolled over laying next to Lucas now. "Sorry bud. Couldn't help." He sat up. "But really where am I sleeping?" Lucas sighed rubbing his face. "You can sleep on the other side of my bed...." He handed him a pillow with a black and white pattern on it. "Thanks! And uh....please don't be mad!" Lucas looked over at Ness confused. "I'm not mad...just embarrassed..." Dawww he's so cute. Ness can hide his thoughts. Lucas can to but forgets. Oh Lucas, why are you so darn cute >w<

Lucas' P.O.V

If embarrassment could be defined in a human, Lucas would be that definition. "Uh...you can change in my bathroom..." Lucas mumbled to Ness fluffing up his pillow. "Okay. Thank." Ness said casually. Lucas looked up to watch Ness close the door to his bathroom. "Ugh! What is wrong with me!?" He groaned when he was sure Ness wouldn't hear. "Now he most likely knows I like him....or that i'm a weirdo." Sighing Lucas got out clothes for tomorrow at Ness' game. A plain red shirt with light blue shorts. Ness stepped out in striped white and blue p.j's they were button up, and the top two buttons were undone. "Man I feel like I could sleep forever!" Ness said flopping down on his side of the bed. Smiling Lucas grabbed an extra blanket from his closet. "Help me out? It's going to get cold soon...my dad turns off the heat at night. Power saving or something.." Nodding Ness helped Lucas smooth the blanket onto the bed. "Thanks!" Yawing Lucas snuggled into his pillow. Thinking of it as Ness. Ness laid down to. "Lucas?" Opening one eye Lucas said Hmm? "I think i'm going to break up with Paula tomorrow...." Taking a moment to let this in Lucas jumped up. "What? Why?" Ness looked at the pillow Lucas gave him, avoiding looking at Lucas. "I saw her kissing someone else, plus I don't want her treating you like garbage....She has no respect for me or my other friends that aren't in our 'group'.." Settling back down into his blankets Lucas said. "Well how are you going to break it to her?" Shifting slightly Ness shrugged. "I don't I guess I'll just tell her. No use in holding back. Just get it over with you know?" At this moment, Lucas felt like the world was just given to him. Ness was breaking up with Paula. He could have a chance with his true love! Staying calm Lucas nodded. "Yeah i get it. But I don't since I haven't dated anyone..." Ness snorted. "I'm surprised the girls in your art class aren't all over you!" Blushing Lucas buried his face into his pillow. "Maybe it's because I don't speak to anyone unless i'm mad. And that hardly happens....so...they ignore me, and I like it. I don't like talking and you know that Ness." Sighing Ness Pulled the blankets over his shoulder as the cold set in."But your talking to me." "Your different Ness....I...." Lucas stopped. "I what?" Ness asked. "I-I....I've known you for a long time and talking to you just comes normally!" Lucas finished quickly rushing over each word. "Sorry...i'm tired, rambling and what not hehe....heh...." Sighing again Ness kicked Lucas lightly. "It's ok I know. Let's sleep so you can get a good seat tomorrow and I can get there early." "R-Right!" Lucas said smiling to himself. "Night Ness.." He said yawning as he curled up. "Goodnight Lucas....You're amazing you know that?" As Lucas faded into sleep, he could of swore he heard Ness say, "Maybe you are my one and only." But, maybe not.
