Chapter 8: Of awkward moments in awkward situation Part II

Third person's POV

Jonathan was about to enter first, but when he saw sherwin was in the middle of the backseat he tried to get out again for david to go first but he was pushed by his brother. "Nope, i got the window sit" david said smiling. Jonathan with a thump on the seat facing sherwin.

Sherwin looked back, gripping the towel harder and the biting stronger for a moment then trailed his eyes forward. He then put the towel over his head completely covering the view jonathan ravishing. Sherwin's face can only be decribe as *one big bloody mess* crimson cheeks, eyes warily looking everywhere but not jonathan's direction.

Jonathan seems to notices sherwin's predicament and growled at his brother, who just give him a lopsided smile with his hands in the air. "Now boys. That's enough" their mother warned them from front seat next to the driver's.

"We have guest. Where's your manners?" Their father added. Both stop and properly sitted. Minutes passed david was humming along the music with his headphones on. The couple and sherwin's mom animatedly talked while occasionally hearing snores from nicky's sleeping form. Sherwin and jonathan were looking directly infront of them cautiously not even glancing each other. Well...maybe a little bit.

"Hey sweetie is your hair still wet?" Sherwin's mom asked. "N-no mom" he replied shakingly. "Are you cold, dear?" Jonathan's mom asked. "I g-guess but im fine" sherwin replied shyly at her, earning him a giggle from the older woman. "Yes you are" jonathan subconsiously thought. "Wait...what" he mumbled. "What was that, dear?" His mom asked making both the adults looked at him minus the driver and sherwin. Sherwin just couldn't look at him at the moment. For...obvious reasons.

"Huh? Oh that! Oh it was nothing, really hehe" he replied scratching his head. He notices sherwin's mom took the towel from her son's head. "Mom!" Sherwin complained. "Sweetie, it's soaking wet by now. Your hair is dry enough" she replied to him grabbing hold to the thing. Sherwin felt vulnerable, the very air that touched his now freed hair and face prickling him with agitation. And the added fact of him seeing jonathan in his peripheral vision had his stomach twist with the same odd feeling before.

Jonathan saw those ginger curls sligtly messy form when the towel was removed, awed at the sight, he didn't even recalled the mother and son argument and just stared at sherwin. He only got the hold of himself when the car thud and had them all bounced up a bit. He inches closer to sherwin by the sudden disturbance, then felt a cold hand where his landed in.

He looked at where his hand were then up to person owning the said hand. Sherwin took a sharp breath, lowering his head and slowly tilted his head to jonathan's meeting him with his eyes. The two hold their stare "Honey!" The woman infront said, nicky startled, sit straight up and marianne chuckling. "Sorry, i forgot about the new humps" he replied forcefully smiling. "Well, that looks fun" david said grinning, looking over at jonathan and sherwin.

It was sherwin who broke the link first, blushing violently. "Sorry, heh" jonthan said smiling, blushing a bit. "I-it's umm ok" sherwin said hesistantly. Jonathan then send an elbow at david's side and let out a painful grunt. "Boys!" Their mom gave them a glare "it wasn't me!" David immediately said in defense, jonathan sighed. Then glanced at sherwin, who also took a few small glances back looking hesistant whether to hold it or not. And jonathan couldn't hold back an amused smile "yep, definitely adorable" he thought.

Minutes passed and nicky is happily snoring back again. The car halting to a stop "alright, here we are" jason said, unlocking the doors. David got out first, stretching himself "oohh, that felt forever" then their mom carrying nicky "david be a dear and open the front door for me" throwing the keys at him, david caught it and walked with him forward to the front door.
