I Won't Ever Hide Alone

Ch:19 The Meeting

Julian: Do you remember anything that happened the last time we hung out?

Dom: Yeah, I am pretty sure I do. Why do you ask?

Julian: Just curious, seemed a little gone that night. What do you  remember?

Dom: I remember talking to you, drank a lot of beers, and dancing with this one girl who came through.... Oh and you leaving.

Julian: Riiiight... Remember anything else?

Dom: Is there something else I should remember?

Julian wasn't sure how to answer that question. He was hoping Dom would remember kissing him and not just kissing him, but where he almost kissed him. He kept trying to think of things, but nothing was coming to mind of what to say.

Julian: No. Just asking. So, how's it going? 

Julian wanted to tell Dom that he missed him, but he stopped himself.

Dom: It's great! It's so good being back home. Seeing my Mum and my sisters.

Julian: Oh so we have a Mummy's boy, huh?

Dom: Proud of it. And as far as I am concerned, it seems you are as well.

Julian: Guess that's why we're such a match. (;

Julian realized what he had sent and hoped it wouldn't be taken in that way, even though he definitely meant it in that way.

Dom: Lawl, yeah. Makes sense. Well, I have to get going for a bit, but I will message you later.

Julian was relieved he responded well to it.

Julian: Alright. Talk to you later.

Julian set his phone down and decided to just put it on the charger. He figured he wouldn't be hearing from Dom for a while so he wanted to keep his phone charged up as he got ready for his double date tonight with Lori and Kara. He was finally going to meet the guy Kara has been non stop talking about since they started dating a month ago.

Julian got up from his bed and decided it was time to get ready. He realized Lori was going to be there soon, and he didn't want her to try to add in a quicky again. He needed a break from the random quickies they would have before they were about to go do something.

He knew Lori wanted to have sex with him before they ever actually did, but he didn't realize she would be such a fiend for it. He wasn't even sure he was that good at it. Especially, because he always found himself thinking of someone else. He knew it was wrong to think of Dom while he was with Lori, but he couldn't help it. For Julian, it was the only way he can actually enjoy himself and to be honest, for Lori to have a good time too. The times he legitimately tried not to think of Dom, he realized he wasn't performing very well. So, in order to be better for Lori, he felt that he had to think of the one person he felt a deep attraction with.

Julian thought about all this stuff as he got ready for the date. It was like a constant battle within himself. He was also wondering if he was becoming obsessive over Dom, but then he pushed that thought away. Though he missed Dom and always wanted to be with him, he wasn't constantly checking his phone or  stalking him at all. So he figured that he is normal. He just had a major crush on someone he can never have.

Julian was finishing up the final touches of his date night wear when he felt warm, soft hands cover his eyes. He knew exactly who it was.
