Homebound (BoyxBoy)

Chapter 26

The last three days have dealt with waking up at Javi's house, going to school, coming back here, and spending time with my boyfriend until we fall asleep. It's been hard to adjust to this after already being in the middle of getting used to life at Lukas and Paige's house. 

Speaking of Lukas and Paige, we've had small conversations together. Wynter is still ignoring me whenever we're at school, even going as far as asking the teacher to switch seats so she doesn't have to sit by me. Not only that, but it's obvious that she told her friends to leave me alone, which sucks since they're the only people I actually know in all my classes. I haven't even tried making other friends.

I haven't really seen Jackson or Liza around since Jackson's been busy with exams and study groups. Liza's been working the same hours she usually does, but since I basically don't live at home anymore, we don't see each other. Whenever I go over there to pick up things, she's not home, so we haven't really had time to discuss anything. Not that she would since she's most likely just as disgusted by me as Wynter.

"You fuckin' idiot," Chris grumbles in his spot next to me on the couch while he, Javi, and Nathan play some video game. I have my homework sitting on my lap, but I'm too caught up in my thoughts to actually be doing it. My eyes are set on the carpet with probably a dead look on my face and I don't even realize it until a hand waves in front of my face and I turn to look at Chris, who chuckles at me. "earth to Blaine."

I clear my throat, shifting in my spot on the couch to lean more against Javi. I look up at him to see that his eyes are already watching me with a concerned glint in them. "I'm fine, just thinking."

Javi nods, but he doesn't seem convinced. But he doesn't need to know that I'm thinking deeply about how my twin sister hates me and is grossed out by our relationship. And how I'm thinking about my other sister, who also probably hates me since she and Wynter are close and most of the time agree on everything. And my brother? Well, even if he does like me now since we made up, that probably all went to hell after Wynter outed us. And, unfortunately, I don't think there's anything that I can do to fix it.

"So," Nathan drags out the word to get all of our attention. Javi's eyes snap away from me to look at his roommate on the other side of the couch. "should I order takeout or what?"

"Yeah, that's cool with me," Javi says with a short nod before sinking down on the couch. I snuggle closer to his side, but I get a whiff of my shirt that I've been wearing every other day since I'm running low on things. Javi's shirts are way too big on me to wear to school and since I've only gone home once to get clothes that I didn't realize half were dirty, I need more. Javi seems to notice my exhausted look because he presses a kiss to my temple. "what's wrong?"

"I have to get more clothes," I whisper in a pitiful look.

"Well, how about you go now? Lukas and Paige are probably cooking, so as long as you don't go in the kitchen, you should be okay, then once you get back, we'll eat and watch a movie," he offers, giving me the cutest smile that I can feel my heart burst in my chest with admiration for this man.

I nod my head. "Okay."

"Do you want me to go with you?" Javi asks once he realizes that I don't even move a muscle after agreeing to his plan. I shake my head because both of us going over to the house sounds like a shit show and not something that I want to be apart of.

"No, I got it," I whisper before finally making my move to stand up. Before I can fully stand on my feet, he grabs a fistful of my shirt in his hands and pulls me down to kiss him. He keeps it soft due to the two men in the room with us, who are no doubt watching us from the wolf whistles and chuckles we hear.
