Chapter 15 - Rough Days

"So that hickey actually is from Lucas?" Leonard asked.

"Oh hell yeah," I said, proud of the mark I had left on him.

"I thought you were straight," Leonard stated.

I shrugged. "I don't really have a preference."

"What did Ellen say earlier?" Henry asked.

"Not important."

"Yes it is."

I sighed. "She said we shouldn't see other people."

"But you're sucking on Henry?" Leonard pointed out.

"The other way around actually," I said, as Henry hit me in the chest. He instantly started to blush, it was so cute.

"Please don't say anymore, or my ears will start to bleed." Leonard said, putting his hands over his ears.

I started to laugh, but Henry looked embarrassed. The bell suddenly rang, causing me to frown. I wanted more time with Henry. "We better get going," he stated.

I waited for Leonard to turn around, as Henry began to follow. I grabbed Henry's hand, and quickly pecked his lips. He smiled, and a blush arose on his cheeks.

We went our separate ways in the hall, and I traveled my usual route to my locker. I opened it up, and unzipped my backpack. As I did so, I felt a firm tap on my shoulder. I turned around to see Mr. Evans staring down at me. Mr. Evans is the school principal, and let's just say I've had my fair share of trouble. I knew what this was about.

"My office, now." he said in a stern voice. I sighed, and followed behind him as we walked to his office. We entered the high school office, and walked back until we reached his room. He opened the door, and Zander was sitting in front of his desk. He was holding an ice pack to his head, and had a few bandages on his face. He had some on his nose and chin.

"Take a seat," Mr. Evans instructed. I sat next to Zander in the seat in front of his desk.

"Take a look at him," Mr. Evans stated, "does it make you proud that you can beat people up. I don't allow that behavior at my school."

"Wait a minute," I stated, Zander was definitely not the victim here. "I didn't just beat Zander up. He threw himself at me."

"You expect me to believe that Mr. Terry? You have one small mark on your chin, and bloody knuckles. Zander has a broken nose, and multiple cuts. It appears to me that you attacked him, and he threw in one punch."

"Quit pretending Luke, you know you started it." Zander said. I couldn't believe the shit that Zander was pulling.

"You're suspended as football captain for the next two weeks." Mr. Evans stated.

"I'll miss our first play off game!" I argued.

"I don't care, Lucas. This is your punishment. I'll be letting coach know." he said. "Now head to class."

I got out of my seat, glaring at Zander. I wanted to rip the smug look off his ugly face. I left the office, and slowly walked down the hallway. I was pissed. How the fuck could Mr. Evans believe that I started it when Zander has been in three fights in the last few weeks? It's a load of bullshit. I punched the locker next to mine, and opened mine up, grabbing my textbooks. I just wanted this day to be over.

"Look, Terry, I know that Morgan has been a jerk lately. I doubt that you started the fight. But I can't go against the principal's decision. I'm sorry. You're suspended as captain." Coach said to me. "You can still practice, but you won't be in any games until your suspension is over."

"Fine," I stated. I knew coach would put me in if he could, I mean he made me captain.

Practice ended up being the longest drag ever. Zander was showing off the entire time, and he wouldn't shut up about how much his nose hurt. Henry sat on the bench, and watched our practice, towels laid out. I just wished I could pull him aside, and get a blowjob. He's damn good at them.

Everyone headed off to the locker rooms, but I stayed by Henry as they walked in. "My days just keep getting worse." I said, with a sigh.

"You're gonna be okay," Henry said with a smile. His dimples made me smile back at him. They were adorable. "See, you're smiling now."

"Yeah, because I can't resist you." I admitted.

Henry laughed, "I don't see why."

"Because you're gorgeous, and you're probably the sweetest person I know. I have to keep resisting the urge to kiss you."

Henry started to blush, "You got to kiss me earlier." he stated.

"But that's not enough," I told him. "Your lips are addicting. Can I come over later?"

"My mother will be home. She doesn't know about... you know."

"That's okay," I said. "I can kiss you without making a sound."

Henry's cheeks were very pink by this point. "Okay." he agreed.

"Great, I'll see you there." I said, walking towards the locker room. Henry began to pick up the water bottles and bring them inside. Most of the boys were gone by now. I went to my locker, and Nate was the only boy in my row.

"Do you have time to talk about some stuff?" Nate asked. I remembered we discussed talking after practice at lunch.

"Yeah, let me change." I stated, putting my regular clothes back on. We walked out of the locker rooms, and out to the parking lot. I leaned against my car as Nate began to talk.

"I've been acting upset lately because my parents are having issues. My dad's been drinking a lot because my mother's never home. When she is home she's always unhappy. I don't know why, but it seems as if they've lost their love. This last week, my mom has been really happy. I thought things were going to be okay. But when I came home on Wednesday, she must not have realized I was there. I walked into the kitchen, and she was making out with some guy I've never seen before. I realized she was happy because she'd found someone else, not because things are getting better with my dad. She begged me not to tell my father, but I can't be stuck in the middle. I'm just so stressed out because I don't want to hurt him, but I don't want to keep this from him."

"I'm sorry, Nate." I said. "You shouldn't be stuck in the middle, your mom needs to tell your dad the truth. If I were you I would tell her that if she doesn't tell him you will. That reverse psychology usually works."

"But I don't want them to split up."

"My parents split when I was very young. You're going to be okay."

"I hope you're right." Nate said. "I don't want to talk about it much. What happened last night?"

"I made out with Henry Simpson."

"What?!" Nate said, surprised. "What about Ellen?"

"We're on break, remember?" I reminded him. "She told me we needed a break, so I asked Henry if we could talk about it. I knew he liked me, so I kissed him. We went to my car, and some things happened from there."

"Oh my god, did you fuck him?"

"No!" I said. "He's a virgin."

"Well I know that. Did you at least suck his dick?"

"I did. And the other way around." I admitted. "And he was so good at it."

"Damn! Who knew?"

"What?" I asked.

"Who knew that Lucas Terry would get a blowjob from Henry Simpson?" Nate said.

I began to laugh. "Definitely not me."
