My submissions for the Jonawagon week 2020prompts

Day1 confessions/first meeting/first kiss

The little group had settled into their normal routine for the evening.By the time food was passed around the sky had lost all it's vestiges of the daylight;instead embracing the cool shade of night.So there the three men were,huddled around a campfire sharing stories over hot bowls of pasta and a passing around bottle of wine.Both of which were courtesy of the baron.As the drink in to dwindle Jonathan's senses began to dull.His head swimmed with half finished thoughts as the conversation continued on around him.

That was until a single question cut through the haze in his mind.

"So do either of you boys have a significant other back home?"The baron's mustache tweaked as he asked jovially.

Despite his head telling his eyes not to drift to the blond beside him they were treacherous and took in the sight.The fire's light highlighted speedwagon's face in striking colors,how every dip and contour on him was dark and shadowed.The man's weaponized bowler hat had been abandoned for the time being.Oh how dashing he was his hair so brilliant in the fire's blazing light.

He must've been staring for too long because the man spoke again."Well?"

It was strange,Speedwagon hadn't responded yet either.

"I'm not courting anyone as of now but there is someone I would if given the chance."It was hard to really say it,especially in a way that didn't give away his infatuation.If it weren't for him admitting it to himself a few days ago he probably wouldn't have had the strength to say it.Even though he know he love him there was still that nagging thought in the back of his head telling him all of it was false,that his love wasn't real.Every time his heart raced when they were close,all the times he'd wondered if those lips felt as soft as they looked,the wishes to hear that loudly rugged voice softly whisper;He asked himself if it was just all in his mind.

"She must be quite the lovely woman."William spoke and Jonathan shook his head.The italian quirked an eyebrow.

"Lovely they very much are but..."He took a breath.Will was one of the people he trusted the most in this world,he could do this."They're not a woman."

Now there were two sets of eyes boring into him.His teacher didn't seem disgusted in fact he was barely even fazed.

"Well I hope I can meet him one day and make sure he's good enough for my pupil."The way he said that made Jonathan wonder just how much he knew.

"I assure you he's a good man."He sighed in relief and smiled easily.Everything was fine.

The oldest of them then turned his attention to Speedwagon."And what about you?Find anyone that strikes your fancy?"

The blond seemed a bit uncomfortable with the spotlight now on him.He seemed to unconsciously curl into himself.

"There is someone,but I'm not getting my hopes up."

"Oh?"The baron leaned forward and rested his chin on his hand."What are they like?"

"Oh I'd rather not say."The light dusting of pink that was barely visible in the fire's light made Jonathan's heart melt.

"If you do I'll force Jonathan to talk more about his.Does that sound fair?"

"Fine.As long as Jonathan is alright with it."

"You are,right?"The baron asked.

Jonathan only answered with a nod.

Speedwagon paused,eyebrows furrowing in concentration for a minute before speaking."Well they're gentle,you wouldn't think it upon first glance but they really are.And their voice too,to everyone they speak so kindly but when angered that soft tone becomes a lion's roar."

He tried to decipher who they were to no luck,they must've been someone speedwagon had met on their travels.A girl from one the surrounding towns maybe?

"Now it's your turn Jojo."

Oh,oh boy."Though he'd probably beg to differ he's really a gentleman.Loyal and honest.Even when he's scared he does what's right.No matter what kind of beastly foes face us he..."His blood ran like ice,he'd said too much and now Robert was staring at him with an expression he couldn't pin down.He sighed and looked down at his hands."I should've said this at the beginning but It's you Robert,you're the one I fell for."He hesitantly looked up but couldn't see much as a pair of arms wrapped around him and his vision was filled with golden curls.

"Thought you could steal a theif's heart and get away with it didn't you?"

"What do you mean?Aren't you disgusted with me?Want me to leave you alone?"

The older man pulled away just enough to look into the wide blue eyes."Oh Jonathan,"It was just a whisper but it was enough for them."I love you too."Before he could register what was said His eyes closed as their lips pressed together and they were softer than he'd ever imagined.
