"Alex is... Alex is gay"

Spending the Night

The picture above has nothing  to do with the story it's just super cute and I love Neil Patrick Harris.
Alexs P.O.V.
I typed out a text to my mom saying " Hey my friend Brian's parents went out of town last minute. Is it okay if he spends the night?" with shaky fingers. Brian's long fingers skillfully playing with my hair was extremely distracting. I leaned into his touch and closed my eyes enjoying the moment. A second later my phone buzzed from its spot on my bed with a text from my mom that said "Sure. As long as it's okay with his parents. I'll be home soon". I turned back towards Brian and told him "My mom said you can say". He mumbled "Good" and pressed a gentle kids into my temple. Normally that would send shivers down my spine but anxiety started coursing through my veins as I realized anybody could walk in and see us all cuddled up like this. He must have seen me tense up because he asked " What's wrong?". I sat up and played with my hands while nervously stuttering out "Nothing. It's just my mom and Elena are going to be home sooner and my abuelita after that and Schneider comes over whenever he wants. That could allow walk in at any moment and I'd they see us all cuddled up like that they will know something is going on between us and I'm not ready for that". Brian got up on his knees and wrapped his arms tightly around me while saying "Hey. It's okay. I get it just calm down. We can do whatever you want. Homework, maybe?". We settled down next to each other and complained "No! Not homework! ".Brian shifted a little closer taking my hand in his and responded " Yes, homework. You have to get caught up and I have to do mine. I can help you". Arguing as always I stated "Yes but you just said that we could do anything I want and the last things I want to do is homework". He stood up, went over to my desk and grabbed the homework while telling me "Well to bad. It needs to be done and at some point you are going to come out to your mom which means she is bound to dislike me because no one is good enough for her son. Which I agree with completely by the way but if she sees that I got her video game lovin' son to do homework she might like me a little more". Awww, he wants to impress my mom. I relented "Fine" and started in on the huge pile of papers he sat in front of me.  The next few hours consisted of homework, random eye contact and an awkward dinner full of questions from my mom and abuelita. If they are this crazy now what are they going to be like when they find out we are dating. Eventually it was time for a to go to bed and it was ... awkward to say the least. I handed him a shirt and shorts that should fit then told him "You can change in the bathroom down the hall". He nodded and left. I hurried to change into a t-shirt and boxers but thought it might be even more awkward so I slipped on some sweatpants to. After a minute Brian came back into my room cute as ever and sat down on my bed next to me. I turned towards him and broke the ice by saying "So I guess we should go to be now". He nodded uncomfortably and climbed under my covers. I flicked off the light then joined him in my bed with my back facing him. After a few monutes of both of us tossing and turning I turned to face Brian and ranted " I can't sleep. Why is this so weird? I mean so what I'm sharing a bed with my boyfriend its not a big deal right? I mean I'm wearing pants and I always just wear boxers and a t-shirt but thought it was to weird or uncomfortable or something". I briefly saw his face light up when the word boyfriend slipped out of my lips but instead of commenting on that he said " It is weird but it doesn't have to be. I felt the same way which is why I'm wearing a shirt right now. So how about you take off those sweatpants and I'll take of my shirt then you come over here and snuggle with me so we can both get some sleep tonight?". "Deal". We shed our extra clothing and my head found it's way to his shoulder again. After a few minutes his fingers drifted to my hair and we drifted off to sleep.
Finally an update. I'm sorry it took so long. Hope you enjoyed it.
