Hell's not that bad (Krii7y)

[3]

The boys headed out after showering and getting in some new clothes, they hopped in Evan's cat which was a surprise to Jaren.

"You drive?" Jaren said looking around the newly bought car. It's interior had nice leather seats and it had that new car smell.

Evan looked over to Jaren before he pulled the car out of the driveway smiling a bit, "yeah bought this bad boy a few months ago. Was going to get an older one but I fell in love when I saw this beaut right here."

"wow ev, never seen you so passionate about a car. Better tell Jonathan to watch out," Jaren giggled a bit saying that as Evan laughed hitting his shoulder. They drove for a good 10mins just singing their hearts out to whatever was on the radio. When the pair arrived Jonathan smiled waving at the two from outside the shop. Evan smiled parking the car and getting out to hug Jon while Jaren slowly got out approaching the two.

Jonathan smiled bringing Jaren into a hug, surprising the boy as he hugged back. "It's good to see you Jaren,"

Jaren was taken back again but nodded, "same to you,"

The trio walked inside and claimed a booth as their own, Jaren looked around the sleek designs the shop had made to make it more of a teenager hangout. "So what's this place got?" Jaren asked looking around.

"Smoothies!" Jonathan shouted putting his hands in the air, a few people looked at him weirdly but then went back to their conversations.

"I'm gonna go order for us," With that Evan was off leaving Jaren and Jonthan alone. Jaren looked to Jon as a 'what now '

"Soooo..." Jaren started off not really knowing what to say.

"Sooo.." Jonthan said back chuckling a bit

"How did you and Evan meet?" Jaren asked, it was a simple question easy to answer.

Jonathan smiled a bit before playing with his hands a bit, "well, we meant our senior year of high school, I was 'new' and he had been there for a year already. We meant through mutual friends. We hit it off really well and now we're here."

Jaren nodded smiling happy to see his friend was happy and that he found someone worth loving. Evan came back with three drinks putting them in the middle of the table.

"What kind did you get babe?" Jonthan asked grabbing drink and a straw, Jaren did the same looking to Evan.

"It's called island breeze, it's a tropical smoothie" The two both nodded taking a sip. Then looked to each other.

"Now this is a lot of damage" Jaren and Jon both said gigging to themselves.

"JINXS, YOU OWN ME A SODA" Jaren screamed slamming his hands on the table as Jonathan sighed laughing. Evan looked over at the two happy they were bonding.

Jonthan fished out 2 bucks and threw it at Jaren, "go buy your own damn soda" he huffed slightly a smile still on his face.

"Haha yes" Jaren fist pumped the air. He climbed over Evan in the booth they shared walking over to the dollar tree store that was next door. As he pulled out his phone he bumped into someone.

"Hey-" He looked up to see John or that's what he thought his name was. One of Evan's friends.

John looked over to Jaren confused, "Jaren? What are you doing here?"

"Jon owned me a soda so he gave me money," Jaren proudly held up 2 dollars from his hand with a grin on his face.

"Conning people already, I like it," he laughed a bit tucking a few strands of hair behind his ear. Jaren just winked walking past John to grab a Coke.

"Can I hang with you guys?" John asked as he walked with Jaren to pay for his drink. Jaren shrugged thinking for a moment .

"I don't know, can you handle us cool kids?" Jaren asked thanking the lady who rung him up, he stepped outside the store John following him.

John fake scoffed putting a hand on his heart , "who said I wasn't a cool kid" Jaren smiled at that then nodded towards the smoothie shop.

"Then let's get to it partner," Jaren walked into the shop and slide back into his booth taking his smoothie back, he gagged a bit as Evan and Jonthan kissed.

"I leave for two seconds and you guys are fucking," Jaren laughed as John joined him in his free booth now. Evan stuck up his middle finger as Jonathan blushed slightly.

"I see you've found a wild John," Jonathan pointed out trying to hide his embarrassment.

"More like he found me." Jaren chuckled taking a sip of his smoothie. John hit his arm scrunching up his face. Jaren looked at him sticking out his tongue.

"Okay lovebirds," Evan said shrugging winking at Jaren and John.

"Ew" Jaren said making fake gagging sounds while finishing his drink, John laughed and winked back at Evan.

"Don't make that face babe you know you love me," John played along wrapping his arms around Jaren, as if they were a couple. His hair covered Jaren's face and he could smell the the shampoo and conditioner making him feel comfortable. His heartbeated slowly but he pushed John off of him playfully laughing along.
