Sexual tension yES
♡•♡•♡•♡•♡•♡
Describing Arlo and John's relationship was never easy. One would easily say Rivals. But paying closer attention, they could be portrayed as friends. But their relationship is so unstable that it's difficult to describe.
Some days, they act... peaceful. Nothing is wrong, and they don't banter for hours. other days it's hectic. but there are these rare moments... when no one else is looking, when no one else is paying attention to them, and no one witnesses the desire that sparks between them for a split second.
-The First Example-
Today, John and Arlo had been arguing. just the normal kind, not too hectic, thankfully. In both their schedules, they had Physical Education together. [yALL KNOW WHERE THIS IS GOING LMAO]
The two of them entered the changing room without acknowledging each other. Arlo's locker was nearer to the exit, and John's locker was near the back.
Arlo peeked first, watching the Black haired boy change through his periferal vision. Only when John took his shirt off did Arlo zoom in to recognize the humps of muscles. His back was facing him, and Arlo got to see his back muscles. Arlo looked away once John turned around to get something. He dropped all his things from the prior class and started taking off his clothes as well. But as he started taking off his shorts, he felt someone's eyes on him. Not minding it, (since he's used to people staring, with or without clothes) he continued dressing into his gym shirt, doing a quick glance at John while he was at it. As soon as he glanced at John, he saw his eyes, not looking directly at him, but Arlo's torso. when John realised, he looked up at Arlo and made eye contact. For a split second they stayed like that, until John looked away, closed his locker and waled out. When he passed by, Arlo smelt a faint hint of cologne as he did.
Arlo fonished dressing, closed his locker and went out, ignoring the warm feeling on his cheeks.
-The Second Encounter-
This time, Arlo was in John's dorm, studying with him. It was kind of late. Arlo had agreed to eat dinner at John's dorm, and it was now 8pm.
They were still reviewing, but he could tell John was getting a bit tired, and so was Arlo himself.
As they were finishing the last sheet, John couldn't help but notice Arlo's facial expression. His eyes were half-lidded, his voice slower than usual as he was explaining the equation. John's gaze then lowered to Arlo's lips as they moved, slowly. They were plump, a bit dry, but John knew his own lips were worse. Arlo's were probably aofter than his....
As Arlo explained the Equation, he looked up to check on John.
"You get it, right?" He asked, focusing on John. Instead of replying, Arlo watched as John slowly licked his lips, his eyes trailing from Arlo's own lips and up to make eye contact with him.
Arlo persed his lips, closing eyes for a bit, to act like he was resting them, but really he was trying to gain composure over himself.
"I think we should stop for today. I'm getting pretty tired." said Arlo, standing up to get his bag. "Just continue the way I explained it to you and you'll get it right." Was all he said before walking to the door. As John walked to see him out, Arlo looked back at John once more. His eyes were half-lidded as well, and he muttered a "Good night." before closing the door.
rude. Arlo thought, but left and went home nonetheless.
