Gift

AN: A little 'gift' chapter for y'all~
~~~~~
Jeremy's POV:
After two more hours of teacher's droning and being misgendered, he is finally able to escape to his video games with Michael, who is already waiting for Jeremy by leaning on the side of his PT cruiser.

"Michael!"

"Sup, man. I was thinking' we hit up the Sev' Elev' 'round the corner then we can head over to my place. Sound good?"

"'Man'...sounds amazing..." Jeremy unknowingly breathes out a response as a part of his internal dream state. Sure, 'man' and other 'masculine terms' makes Jeremy feel better about himself, but the fact that it came from Michael almost makes Jeremy's miserable and meaningless life worth while. Maybe if this 'QUICK'...'QUIP'?...'SQUIP' thing is for real, IT could make my life worth while. Once Jeremy's mental rambling process is finished, he snaps out of his hazy state with a light blush adorning the freckles across his nose as he realizes he had dreamily staring at Michael during his mental monologue while Michael chuckled at him. "L-let's just g-go..."

Jeremy embarrassedly climbs into the passenger side before turning to the window and pouting from mortification. He can only hope Michael took it as one of his common thinking trances that he tends to go into...one of which he almost went into again had he not been distracted. A small boy with dirty-blond hair in a blue and white striped polo had waved at Jeremy with an an arm in a cast. The name 'CONNOR' took up a majority of the cast in big, bold letters, which Jeremy assumes is the name of the tall guy with long brown hair and a black hoodie. The two appear to be dating as the taller one held the smaller possessively as they wave at Jeremy through the car window.

"Who ya wavin' at?"

"Uhhh...Connor and the cast boy, Emu Handtowel?"

"Jeezus fucking...that kid is like the Benedict Cumberbatch of our school, I'm pretty sure no one gets their names right, even if they do actually know their real names...is it bad I know exactly who you're talking about?"

"Probably. I would give anything to be in a nice relationship like that." Frick man. Chill out before you start fantasizing about Micha. Jeremy manages to stop himself from going back into a trance only for his blush to deepen.

"We're heere."

"Wha-ohhhggggnnn...Micha-"

"Love ya, too."

Pause.

...

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOGHAAAAA OMGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE IIIIIIIIYAAAAAAYYYY DUDEDUDEDUDEDUDEEEEEEE BRO WHOAH GAHEEEEEYAH MMMMMMMMMMMMNNNNN AH...

...

Holy shit.

...

Resume.

It takes a minute for Jeremy to snap out of his eternal and internal fanboying to realize the two had been silently staring at each other with bright red faces. "W-What?" His voice crack breaks the silence and Michael takes the chance to clear his throat.

"I um...I...no hetero?" Oh.

"R-right...n-no hetero..."

Michael's POV:
He watches the previous excitement in his beloved's eyes die out. It hurt to think he's the reason J's excitement went away. Of course J wouldn't know the implications behind the words. Michael didn't say it because he didn't like her, he said it cause he's madly in love with him.
