When He Sees Me [Draft]

[11]

Andrew approached Ben once again on the football team as he gave the shorter boy a bright smile
"Danny said he won't pay any attention to you. So I'm taking that as a good thing?" Andrew told him.
Ben nods "it's better than being beaten up. Plus, who needs him. I have you to hang out with."
"Not gonna lie, but i'm pretty much a party animal." Andrew said with a smug grin, linking arms with Ben as he led him to his own black BMW.
"Oh really?" Ben chuckled, leaning into Andrew a little to make the most out of them being close together.
"Yes sir I am." He replied, opening the passenger seat for Ben. "I can give you a ride to school tomorrow so you can just leave your car here tonight. Is that okay?"
Ben nodded and got into Andrew's fancy car.
"Cool." The taller boy said as he hopped into the drivers seat and took off to Danny's house.

Once the boys reached the party, music was blaring and high schoolers were all over the place talking, dancing, and underage drinking.
Ben got out of the car as Andrew led him inside, Ben trying his best to just blend in with the other boy so they didn't make a scene.
A bunch of jocks and cheerleaders were all sitting in the living room playing spin the bottle, so Andrew naturally wanted to join in with his friends on the game.
"Do you wanna play?" Andrew asked Ben.
"I mean, I guess so. If your friends don't mind." He shrugged, looking at the drunk, horny teenagers.
"ANDREW! My boy!" Yelled Danny, waving Andrew over to the group "You gonna play with us my man?"
"Hell yeah!" Andrew laughed, pulling Ben over as the two sat down in the circle next to each other.

After a few rounds, Ben felt out of place so he sort of zoned out a little until he realized it was Andrews turn to spin the bottle. He watched carefully as the bottle spun, landing on some random chick who was passed out in some guys lap.
"I'm not kissing a passed out chick." Andrew said, spinning it again. His heart stopped when he saw who it landed on;
Ben.
He wanted to kiss him, and he'd already done it before, but now it was in front of everyone. He knew he had been Ben's first kiss, and that it was important to him, and he didn't want to screw up what they had going on by embarrassing Ben.
"Oh damn. You gotta kiss the queer! Don't get sick homie!" Yelled Danny, other yells and insults being thrown by jocks.
Ben looked at Andrew "You don't have to.." He said quietly, tuning out the idiotic drunk teens around him.
"I want to." Is what Andrew wanted to say, but instead just leaned in and connected his lips with Ben's. Andrew put his hand on Ben's cheek as they kissed, never wanting to move away from him.

After about 15 seconds, but what seemed like hours, all of the jocks were yelling at Andrew for kissing him for so long.
"What the hell!? Andrew he's gonna infect ya!" Danny yelled.
Andrew moved away from Ben, who was blushing profusely as he stood up and quickly walked to a random room and shut the door.
Ben turned on the light, sunk to the floor and put his face in his hands.
He didn't know what he was doing, or why he just ran away, but he figured it was because he was embarrassed for Andrew for just kissing the most hated kid at school. He sighed. He sighed because he knew he was falling for the guy he could never be with, it would never work out. All Ben wanted to do was cry, but he wouldn't let himself do it.

Andrew looked at all of his friends, and then quickly got up to go find Ben as all of his "friends" yelled behind him calling him a queer lover. Andy knocked on the door that Ben was behind, and opened it before he could answer. He walked in, shutting the door behind him and sinking into the floor next to Ben.
"I'm sorry." Ben said quietly.
"For what? I kissed you."
"For coming to this party. For becoming your friend. For falling in love with you." Ben said, leaning his head on Andrews upper arm.
"Well, I'm not sorry. You are the best thing to ever happen to me. You're the best friend I could have." Andrew replied, turning to face Ben and put his hands on the smaller boy's cheeks. "And guess what? I don't give a damn what those ignorant assholes think. Because you're so much better than any of them." He said, pressing a small kiss on Ben's forehead.
