Saving The Heart

Part Two : Chapter Five

Guys I told my mom that I had 900 reads and she said she was going to get Wattpad to see my writing. I'm really scared but anyway thank you all so much for reading this! I feel so popular lol. (Omg my mom is gonna have a long talk with me) Well enjoy this chapter!

Jon took a deep breath. Damian stood there, waiting for his response. "I don't want to talk."

"But we need to talk." Damian walked to the couch and sat down next to Jon. "You've been acting weird lately, are you okay?"

"Damian, I really don't want to talk about it."

Damian became angry. "Jon, I'm here giving you the opportunity to let me help you and you're not taking it! You know I don't do stuff like this but I'm trying to, okay?"

"Why are you so mad all the time?" Jon was angry now too.  "Am I allowed to have emotions? Am I allowed to be upset?"

"Jon, what are you talking about? You have literally nothing to be upset about with your perfect life!"

"I have plenty to be upset about but you never let me talk to you about it!"

"I'm giving you the chance right now!"

The boys were quiet. Jon gulped. "Damian, do you still like me? Like, like me like me?"

Damian took a deep breath. "Jon, you know I do."

"Do I? Everyday you look at me like you're disappointed. Like you wish I was older or that I could just grow up. Well I'm sorry, but I can't.  And you probably hate me for that. I'm sorry, Damian."

Damian's face was calm, but on the inside he was screaming. "Jon, I wasn't disappointed in you, I was disappointed in myself for not being able to wait for you. You shouldn't have to do things you don't want to in any relationship. Jon," Damian took Jon's face in his hands, "I love you with and without kisses. No matter what, you'll always be the Jon that I fight crime with, argue with, and love with my whole heart."

And at that moment, something overcame Jon that made him do something he really shouldn't have. He leaned in and kissed Damian right on the lips. And as quickly as it had started, it was over. Damian smirked. "Did you do that because you wanted to or because you knew I wanted to?"

"Both," Jon said smiling, and they both burst out laughing.

Aubrey was giving apologetic smiles to the customers of the coffee shop. Not only did- not one, but two- boys come running through the shop making noise, then they were yelling in the break room! A couple people had left, but some had stayed for the curiosity of this event. She handed a man his coffee as Damian and Jon emerged from the back, hand in hand. She opened her mouth to speak but Damian cut her off before she could start. "We handled it."

Aubrey smiled at the boys. "Of course you did," she said. Then she raised an eyebrow. "You know, that hot chocolate is still waiting for you..."

The two boys looked at each other and then back to Aubrey. "Yes please!"
