By Your Side; Ksimon

Chapter Seventeen

Simon's POV

I slowly opened my eyes, feeling a pounding headache and a queazy feeling in my stomach. As I looked around, I wasn't in a room I recognized. It was small, and crowded. The floors were messy with clothing, and a monitor and camera was set up on a desk.

I looked over to my right, seeing a man lying in bed next to me. I let out a yell as I jumped backwards, the man immediately opening his eyes and grabbing onto me, covering my mouth. My hands were wide as I realized it was JJ.

JJ and I were lying in bed together, he was shirtless. After he saw me calming down, he removed his rough hand from my mouth, "Shhh you're fine, you just got a little to drunk..." He whispers in a quiet voice.

A realization filled me, "Did we-...?" Please don't tell me we had sex, please. I'm a virgin and I'm not ready for that to change.

"God no geez Simon!" JJ throws his hands up, rolling onto the other side of the bed. I let out a breath in relief that I didn't know I was holding, "I brought you to a party and you drank to much, so I brought you home, that's all that happened." He mutters, staring up at his ceiling fan.

I brought my hands to my temples, rubbing them. I felt extremely nauseous and tired, "Y-You don't look so good..." He mumbles, his eyes traveling up and down my body.

"Is this what a hangover feels like...?" I muttered, covering my eyes, groaning out.

JJ chuckles, "Sadly, yes. What do you remember?" He questions curiously.

I searched through my memory, everything was really hazy, "I remember waiting for you to show up at my house...then we went to a party...it was loud and we order drinks...everything after that is really hazy..." I mumbled, wrapping my arms around my stomach tightly, wishing the aching feeling would go away.

The realization finally started to hit in, I just got drunk at a party, what if others found out, did I totally embarrass myself? Did I do something stupid?

I could feel panic start to take over me as JJ gripped my shoulders, "Nothing happened, you're fine, I promise." He said comforting, I took a deep breath, calming myself down.

My head was pounding, making me feel overwhelmed, "Fuck..." I mumbled under my breath as I rubbed my head with both of my hands.

JJ sighs, "All you need is some water and rest, it should disappear in a matter of no time." He mumbles, laying his head on my shoulder.

I wanted to know everything of what happened last night, but no matter how much I tried to remember, I couldn't.

JJ's POV

Just by looking at Simon you could see his innocence, and I was starting to ruin his innocence, I wasn't sure if I should be proud or ashamed of that fact, he was perfect the way he was, yet every day he gets more and more desirable.

He looked even paler than usual as he laid his head on top of mine, which was on his shoulder, "This is so gay...." I muttered. He quickly lifts his head up, laying it on the other side. "I never said I didn't mind it...anyways, you aren't mates unless you act a little gay." I gently grabbed his chin, moving his face back to rest on the top of my head.

He lets out a small groan as I looked up, seeing him squeezing his eyes shut, "I'm to young for this...a-are we going to get in trouble?" His voice sounded panicked as he opened his eyes.

"Of course not Minter, you're eighteen, and anyways it's normal for high schoolers to go to these parties and get drunk. I don't even get why it's a law anyways, everyone does it and people rarely get caught." I thought this would comfort him, but it only caused the crease in his forehead to grow larger.
