Quietly Queer

Chapter 29

~Jacob's POV~

About a week has passed, since Shawn told me about his dream. I really didn't care since I know nothing has really happened like that between them.

I was walking to my next lecture of the day and Shawn suddenly showed up by my side.

"Oh, hey kid" my eyes started darting around to make sure no one was looking. I looked down at the shorter boy. He smiled up at me and reached his hand over to mine and I yanked my hand away. He frowned and lowered his voice so only I could hear him.

"Why won't you hold my hand?" I saw a janitors closet and pulled him into it with me. He looked at me with sort of watery eyes that melted me. I sighed and sat on a bucket.

"Do you not want to be seen with me?" His voice was quivering a bit. I grabbed his hand as he stood in front of me.

"Babe I'm just not used to it. I know it's sad that I'm gonna day this, but I care what my friends think of me. When it comes to gays, they are basically Nazis. I just don't know if I'm quite ready to come out yet. It has nothing to do with you I promise." I pulled his face down to me and pecked his lips. He smiled slightly and ran his fingers through my hair, looking into my eyes.

"Okay but if we are keeping it a secret during our lectures, then once we are back in the dorm you have to make it up to me for not showing me love during the day."

I nodded and kissed his nose. "Deal." I leaned in to kiss him and he pulled his head back. "Nope, not until we are in the dorm. Also, where is Zach?" I groaned staring at his lips. He smirked leaning against the door. "He's with a close friend of mine, they are back at our dorm." I looked at my watch and started to panic. "Babe we are missing our lectures come on." I got up and walked out, I made it halfway down the hallway before Shawn walked out. I got a text and pulled out my phone to see that Shawn had texted me 'See you tonight ;)' I smiled at my phone before walking into my lecture. My lord... he's so freaking adorable it kills me.
