"Hey, Ben? I need to take a shower, I'm just now realizing I didn't after the game." Andy said.
Ben nodded, "Okay?" he said, watching Andy get off of his own bed.
"You wanna join me?" Andy said smugly, with a slight smirk.
Ben instantly turned red "Uhh, no thanks." He said awkwardly.
"Oh, um... Okay. Sorry." Andy said, quickly going into the bathroom.
Ben covered his face with his hands and laid back on Andy's bed. "Great job stupid... You're a senior in high school, almost a legal adult, and you're still scared of anything past kissing..." he thought.
Andrew took his shower quickly, only halfway getting dressed. He had everything but a shirt on, which I mean, c'mon right? He's the quarterback so he obviously was pretty in shape.
When he walked back into his room, he sat on the bed next to Ben "Oh my God, Ben, you're still blushing."
"Wha-? No i'm not! Shut up!" Ben pushed Andy but it did nothing because he's a theatre kid what would you expect.
Andy laughs and grabs Ben's waist "Yes you are." He teases. "You're such a prude, Benjamin."
"Okay, no, that's wrong. Don't make me fight you, Andrew."
"You say that, but when I try to do this..." Andy moves his hand up Ben's shirt, and Ben pushes it back out, and jumps like he was being tickled. "You do that."
"Your hands are cold." Ben says as an excuse.
"Mhm." Andy says sarcastically.
"Maybe the problem is that you're a hoe." Ben jokes, "I mean, you are cheating on your pregnant girlfriend with a dude. Sounds like something out of a terribly cheesy romance book."
"I'm not a hoe, I'm a boy with needs." Andy stands up, accidentally knocking over a bottle of something from his nightstand onto the ground.
Ben sees that it's an empty bottle of lotion and looks into the camera like he's on the office. "You got any lotion?"
"Huh? Oh, no I don't have any- wait a minute, that was rude." Andy jokes, throwing he empty bottle in the trash can and putting on a Barnum football t-shirt, sitting back down facing Ben.
"Ew I hate you."
"Ha that's funny, if you hated me you wouldn't let me do this." Andy says, pulling Ben closer and kissing him pretty deeply.
Ben, of course, wrapped his arms around Andy's neck and kissed him back, "Got me there." He said quietly with a slight laugh. He then moved away from Andy a little and excitedly said "Hey! Let's watch Les Mis! Auditions for it are next week and I need to watch it for the 30th time this month."
"Oh dear lord." Andy mumbled, but nodding to agree with Ben because he'd never seen it and what was there to lose.
Of course, had he known it was a 3 hour long movie with no dialogue that isn't sung with a dramatic vibrato, he wouldn't have agreed to watch it. But it made Ben happy to be able to lay in the dark all cuddled up with the dude he was hardcore crushing on, and seeing Ben happy made Andy happy. And that's all that mattered to Andy, was that Ben was happy.
