Falling || PhaYo

"What have I gotten myself into?"

PHA POV

    “Where did you guys go?” Beam asked as we walked back to the table.

    I had kissed Yo in the bathroom, on pure accident. It’s just hard to control your hormones when someone, who you may or may not find attractive, is pressed up against you in a small bathroom stall.

    “Ricky is here.” Yo said to Ming, and everyone else who could hear, as he took his seat again. Ming’s eyes widened as he looked around.

    “How did I not notice? Why didn’t he come to talk to me?” He questioned. Yo shook my head.

    “I don’t know. I just panicked and grabbed Pha and hid behind him and,” Yo paused for a second before looking at me. “And hid in the bathroom.” Yo explained, leaving out the crucial detail of our kiss.

    “Do you wanna go?” Ming asked. Yo shook his head as he downed a shot.

    “I think I’m gonna need to have a few more drinks after what just happened.” Yo said drinking his drink he had before. I couldn’t tell if he was talking about the kiss or that Ricky guy. Or both.

    And he can’t say he didn’t enjoy it. I mean he clearly liked it. He kissed back.

    I mean who does that? Who goes around pulling strangers into bathroom stalls and kisses them, granted that I kissed him first, he still kissed me?

    “Drink however much you like. I’ll find you a ride home.” Ming said patting his shoulder. Yo nodded and grabbed another shot, downing it.

    I sat back in my seat and just enjoyed my alcohol-free water. As thoughts of what Lemon had asked me earlier rushed into my head.

She liked Yo, but it was so obvious that he was gay. I didn’t want her feelings to get hurt, but she wouldn’t stop begging. She’ll end up learning the hard way. And how are you supposed to ask a man who likes men to spend time with another man, gay or straight, and get to know him and not fall in love with him? That’s isn’t how it always worked. Given, Lemon didn’t know I was gay. No one did. Except for Yo now.

And I had seen Yo before. He was the Science campus moon last year. Like, everyone knew his name. I thought he was adorable far away. Now he is hot and kind of fierce for a little person. He is also weirdly strong.

“Do you like him?” Lemon asked scooting closer to me and smiling. I turned to her with wide eyes.

“What?” I questioned making sure if I had heard her correctly or not. She looked at me confused before repeating herself.

“Do you like her? Jennie.” Lemon said gesturing to her friend who was sitting next to me looking a little drunk. I sighed and sipped my water.

“She isn’t my type.” I said looking at Yo who was laughing with Forth and drinking his drink. He looked to be getting pretty drunk. I heard Lemon sigh from beside me.

“Than what is your type?” She asked. I sighed again deeply and tilted my head.

“Small. Dark hair. Dark eyes. Light skin. Someone who is ordinary and extraordinary at the same time.” Before I could stop myself, the description of Yo had come out of my mouth.

“Guess I’m gonna have to continue my search.” She said sighing deeply. I chuckled to myself. Sometimes she could be the most oblivious person in the world.

“Maybe you should go home.” Forth said causing me to look to see who he was talking to. Wayo. He was trying to stand up but was failing miserably. I jumped up to catch him before he came in contact with the ground.

“Thanks.” He said patting my shoulder and standing back up.

“Let me take you home.” I said, still holding onto him. He laughed and shook his head trying to get out of my grip.

“I’m fine.” He said slurring his words. I sighed and shook my head.

“I’m taking you home.” I demanded. “Lemon, I’ll take you guys as well.” I said picking up Yo and carrying him bridal style. I said my goodbyes and walked out with Lemon and Jennie following close behind me.

I set Yo in the front seat, afraid Lemon might try and take advantage of his drunk state. I dropped Lemon and Jennie both at Lemons house. I began driving down the street again when I realized I had no idea where he lived.

“Yo, you have to tell me your address.” I said using my hand to try and shake him awake. All I got back was a groan and him moving a little. “Wake up.” I said shaking him again. He groaned again but answered me.

“I don’t know. Just take me where ever.” He said before sighing deeply and settling back into sleep. I sigh and shake my head before just heading straight for my dorm. He would just have to stay the night with me.

I parked my car as close to the building as possible. I didn’t want to have to carry Yo so far. I opened the car door and picked him up bridal style again. This time, instead of sprawling out like a crazy person he wrapped his arms around my neck and put his face into my chest. I smiled unconsciously. He really was kind of cute. Like a little puppy. What have I gotten myself into?

How did I go from agreeing to help my friend to get Yo to like her, just this morning, to this? Carrying Yo into my dorm after kissing him in the bathroom stall of a bar, minutes after meeting him?

What the hell?
