Date: Sat, 3 Mar 2012 20:16:15 -0700 From: jhol7689 H Subject: Not Another Love Story Chapter 18 Cody's POV Wade is seriously a sucker for romance and a total girl at heart. On our first date, I asked him what movie he wanted to see and it had to be water for elephants! Of course I went all out; we went to the olive garden which was packed, being a Friday night. After everything I did to make this date happen, I knew he wasn't going to put out because as I've said, he might as well have been a woman. I didn't see it happening but soon enough he had me wrapped around his little finger. It didn't matter because the feelings that I had grown towards him have been stomped on. I kept denying it and hoping that one day these feelings would just vanish, but to no avail and I knew I was getting attached. There was only one person who I had fallen in love with and her name was Veronica. Her father was in the military and the whole family had to pack up and move every time he was re-assigned somewhere else. The first day I saw her I knew she had to be mine. Chinese was her main heritage but her mom was English, so her skin had been light. She had sparkling blue eyes and dark brown hair, skinny as hell and medium sized breasts. I loved everything about her from being 5'8 to her bubbly personality. I did everything I could, from asking her out in front of her friends to announcing it to the whole school that I loved her. In the end she ended up being my girlfriend, we did the deed and a couple months later she and her family had packed up and left. Two days later I received a letter in the mail saying she found out she was pregnant and had gotten an abortion. I feel so low every time I think about her and how she didn't even discuss the matter with me so I don't. Wade took me by surprise, at first I thought of it as a game, close to cat and mouse. I tried being forceful but in the end what does that get me? I'll tell you, it had me beaten up twice by two tough, protective men and no guy. Today is the day Wade is going back to school and honestly, nobody gives a crap that he takes it up the ass; however they do care if it's one of their friends giving it to him. I swear this is one backwards state, I know why Robbie backed down. If the guys found out Wade were his boyfriend, they'd kill him. Although the hypocrisy is buried down deep because I can see them sneaking glances at Wade as if he were a piece of meat. It pisses me off because I'm a jealous, possessive son of a bitch. I had also told Wade that I stayed true to my word and didn't give two shits about what the guys thought; I could take care of myself. However I do want to find out if I have real feelings for him or if it's just lust and we won't know until we have sex. *** I smirk deviously over at Robbie who is glaring daggers my way as I walk Wade to his locker. Wade completely ignores Robbie and I don't blame him because the guy is all but getting a lap dance from his girl. Now I've been with slutty girls, no doubt about it, but I only go down that low because I get tired of using my left hand. I know they think it's hot and all, but suck the guy off in the classroom and it's actually a turn off. I laugh when girls get offended when guys call them whores and such because they're the ones making themselves out to be one. I look down at Wade who meets the height of my waist; he's so small that you just want to cuddle with him. His dark reddish, brown hair is straightened, yes people, he has a straightener, and I'm telling you he screams out GIRL. The length hangs down to his eyelashes, barely missing hazel green eyes. His skin is almost like a cream color, it's free of acne, making him look like a small, porcelain doll. I get side tracked when he starts waving his hand in my face. "Would you please stop undressing me with your eyes and help me?" He smirks, obviously fond of my interest of him. I roll mine and carry his back pack, we don't get too far because Austin stops us in his tracks. Wade completely freezes up and I can understand why after there last encounter at school, but I knew they made up so I don't have to bring out my fists. "Hey dude, welcome back." He gives Wade a nuggie and pats my back in appreciation. Man I wonder what he would do to me if he ever found out what I tried to do to Wade? I know we wouldn't be best buds, that's for sure. "Thanks, how goes you and Candy?" Austin gets this goofy grin and I can't help but mentally gag. Candy has him by the balls and he doesn't even know it yet, poor bastard. "She took me out to a club on Saturday to celebrate Saint Patrick's Day, it was the bomb dude!" Wade raises his eyebrows suggestively towards me. I knew what he was thinking, after the movie I took him home. We made out on his front porch and continued into his living room where his father all but kicked my ass out. Before Wade could get another word in, Aaron walks up from behind Austin. "What the hell man! What are doing hanging out with the little fairy? Do you want people talking shit on you?" He screamed, catching everyone's attention, curious on lookers stopped in their tracks to watch the show. "I told you not to tell anyone and look what you do behind my back! I realized I've been a jack ass and no one is keeping me from my blood brother." Aaron scoffs; he gives Wade a death glare but Austin steps in front of him. "Look, you throw amazing parties but you and I have never been friends, if you wouldn't talk shit on Wade so much maybe we could be." Aaron narrows his eyes at Austin who I have no doubt been meant for Wade to see. "You'll get yours queer." Surprising us all; Wade steps out from his shield in armor. "I already did and don't play dumb I know you helped those guys." Aaron widens his eyes in shock and something else I can't place. "I don't know what you're talking about." "You told everybody my sexual orientation and I don't have proof but you probably told those guys to attack me." Aaron snorts and completely dismisses the idea with a wave of his hand. "You're out of your mind Dayton." "Yeah that's why the guy said he heard it from a bird, for all I know you could have pictures! I knew they were taking pictures of me naked, thinking they were going to humiliate me more and didn't think they would get caught." Aaron didn't get a chance to respond as a teacher came out and told all the students that the bell had rung and get to class. Aaron punched the locker door which earned a detention from the teacher and a shivering Wade. Austin pats the kid on the back and starts walking away. "I'll see you after school, later Cody." "Are you OK?" I ask since it looks like he could vomit at any second, he had one arm wrapped around his waist and another on his forehead. "Yeah, fine, let's go." I take him to class and head off to gym, where not surprisingly everybody is already warming up but Robbie. Once our eyes lock with each other he takes a menacing step towards me, I don't even flinch. "I don't know what the hell you're thinking but stay away from Wade." I close in the gap between us and now I'm inches away from his face. "Why do you still care? You threw him away like a piece of trash and what you said to him in the hospital just put you back in square one." "I know Wade and he knows I still care about him, it's you who's twisting his views and messing him up!" I raised an eyebrow up and let out a small chuckle. "See, here's the difference between me and you, I'll stand up for him and I can take care of myself and won't chicken out of a fight like someone we know. All it is, is balls my man and you surly don't have a pair." "Whatever, look you stay away from him and I won't tell the guys what you're like." "Was that a threat Robert?" "No it's a promise." "Boys; class started ten minutes ago, you can give me five extra laps, GO!" I sigh and think about the best approach to get Wade underneath me so I can find out if these feelings are real or not. It's not that I'm afraid; I just want to be the one to tell everyone, not an enemy of mine.
