I've written others but decided to share this one first. Other stories I have written are Gavin's Got Game, Hayden's Story, Shawn's Turn, Teddy Bear, and the After Party. You can find the first three here in the high school section and the latter two in the college section, all under the gay category. If you have trouble finding them, I am under the Nifty author section as Aaron Hull so you can also find my stories that way. Warning: My shorter stories contain sex. If you like this story, contact me at wah.stories@yahoo.com. I strongly encourage it. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Mason's perspective- "Okay now...let me get this straight..." Chelsie began to say. Her and I were on my couch with her head in my lap. I know that looks wrong but we're just friends. Nothing more. "You're in love with this Spencer guy, right?" "Yes." "And you fucked everything up, right?" "Yes." "And you still love him, right?" "Yes." "And he still loves you, right?" "Yes." Chelsie sat up. "Then you need to go be with him! Why are you here with a cute girl on your couch when the man of your life is out there!" "It's not that simple though." Her and I have tried talking about this, it's been three weeks since we've met. We've gotten a lot closer. Megan, Lily, and Tyler all like Chelsie too so things are working out for my group of friends. "Sometimes the simplest answer is the right one." I didn't know what to say to that. "You all should be able to talk now. From what Lily tells me you all completely avoid eye contact. I know you are waiting for the perfect moment but there is no such thing. Think about when you two started dating, did that go exactly like you planned." "No." "What about all the best moments in your life? Were they perfectly planned and executed correctly?" "No..." "Then why does this moment have to be perfect? Right now the two of you are aching for one another, waiting for the right moment to come where the two of you can be like Noah and Allie from the Notebook but that moment will never come if you keep waiting." I wanted to change the topic. I'm so scared Spencer will tell me that he's moved on and that he just wants to be friends. It scares me that the next time I look in his eyes I won't see love, I'll see hatred and disgust. "I still haven't seen that movie..." "Well you and I are going to watch it tonight." Chelsie rested her head on my lap again. "And you're going to like it." -Spencer's perspective- "Have you two fucked yet?" Macy asked as she plopped down beside me on my couch. I rolled my eyes and gave her the same answer I've given her the past three weeks. "No. Kurt and I have not fucked and like I told you I am over that phase now." To be honest I wasn't, but since I've told Macy, she keeps telling me that he and I should just do it. When we hang out as a big group, Macy always tries pushing the two of us together. It makes things even more awkward that Daniel tried to pull Kurt away from me. I can tell that Daniel knows Kurt's master plan and it's hard to see the two of them fight. For a while they didn't talk whatsoever and made every outing extremely awkward but now they act like brothers again, for the most part. It's hard to believe that before this year they were like two peas in a pod. "No you're not. And by the way Kurt asked when you wanted to fuck?" "What?!" There was no joy in that shout. I was having a mini heart attack. "Yeah. I asked him, from your phone obviously, if he could fuck you today. He replied with `When do you want it?' with a winky face." "When did you take my phone?!" I wasn't really made at Macy since she does things like this a lot now. She's become more of a sister to me. "When you went to pee. It took me awhile to figure out the password but I should have guessed it was Mason's birthday." I blushed. I know it's weird that I'd keep his birthday as my password but it's just...I don't know. I still love him. "Give me my phone back please." Macy rolled her eyes and handed me my phone. I then texted Kurt back. "Ummm..sorry. Macy took my phone. But anytime you're available ;) haha" "Oh my god!" Macy squealed. "You're being such a flirt! No wonder all the guys want you." I couldn't help but blush even harder. "Shut up. The offer is kinda still there and I don't want to like completely reject it." "Then do it. I feel like Spason will be happening again soon and I want you to have a little fun before then. You need to get your mind off that god of sexual desire for at least one night and settle for the god of one pump and done." "If only Kurt was here to hear that." "It's not try, he actually-" "Even! I don't want to hear one more thing about how great Kurt is in bed. If it ever happens I want to find out on my own and not have Macy's Handbook to Fucking Kurt." "Whatever." Macy rested her head against my shoulder and the two of us continued to watch TV. Ever since the last incident with her parents, Macy lives here for the weekends so my mom can watch after her. My mom and Macy's parents had a long discussion over it and they all agreed that it'd be best if she stayed here on the weekends because it would give her the freedom to see friends but also have close supervision since my mom is home all weekends. My mom works online so she's home all day and can watch after me and Megan. "Did Kurt tell you what happened to Kasey and Daniel?" "No?" I was really confused. The two of them seemed kinda distant yesterday but I didn't want to say anything. "Kasey's mom caught the two of them in the act the other day." It kinda hurt to hear that Daniel was having sex with someone but I've known about it for a while so it hurts less and less. "Kurt also told me that the two of them don't really text anymore. He thinks the relationship is basically over." "Wow. That's...." "Great?" "No! I wasn't going to say that." "But you love Daniel right?" "Yes." "And you want to be the one having sex with him right?" I didn't answer this one. My blushing gave the answer away though. "So then fucking Kurt would be the next best thing." I rolled my eyes as a giant grin took over Macy's face. "Don't you have anything better to think about than me and your basically boyfriend having sex?" "Nope." Later on that day, Emma, Brennan, Daniel, Kurt, and Kasey were all over here. We didn't have anywhere to go or anything to do so we sat outside on my patio furniture and just talked. Daniel and Kasey were in individual chairs, everyone could tell something was up; Emma, Brennan, and Macy were awkwardly entwined on the couch; leaving me and Kurt to awkwardly sit on the loveseat, which made Macy wink. For the most part, we all just talked and had fun. Every now and then I'd feel Kurt's hand touch my thigh or our feet would bump into each other and Macy would wink or say something about how cute we looked together, but for the most part everything went well and Macy stopped herself from completely embarrassing me. "What are you alls' plans for spring break?" Emma asked everyone. Spring Break was right around the corner and I had no idea what I was going to do. Mom told me that she had nothing planned but if I could find anything affordable we could go. "Absolutely nothing." Kurt said. "We normally go to the cabin but this year Dad is taking Lisa up there for the week since they as well get the week off." "It sounds like you're going to have a new mommy soon." Emma said with a wink. "We already have Daniel for all the cooking and cleaning so I have no idea why we need one of those." Daniel just rolled his eyes and flipped Kurt off. "My cousin is coming down to visit." Macy initially said. "Wait! Oh my gosh! Spencer! It's Cory!" At first I had no idea what she meant. I then remembered that Macy tried hooking me up with her gay cousin over Christmas break, whose name is Cory. She gave me his number and everything and we texted for a few days but then Mason and I got together and well...I kinda ignored him, by accident though. "Oh." I really didn't know what to say. I felt bad for what I did and I really didn't want to meet him and have to explain to him that I had a boyfriend and now I'm single. "Why `oh'? You should be excited! He thinks you're super cute and the fact that you're single, maybe the two of you could fool around." The last part made me blush. I could basically feel Kurt blushing as well and I could also feel Daniel glaring at both Macy and Kurt even though they were on opposite sides of the patio. "I don't know if I could do that. I'm not the kind of guy who is into one-night stands." "Why not?" Kurt asked me. "If any chick told me that I could fuck her and never see her again then I'd be the happiest guy in the world." His smile broadened. "You're kinda taken though, so..." Macy said, nudging towards me. "Wait...Are Kurt and Spencer dating?!" Emma asked. This caused Kurt and Macy to laugh. I wanted to die while Brennan and Kasey were completely confused and Daniel was ready to kill. "No. We're just friends." I said, looking straight into Macy's eyes. She just shrugged her shoulders and smiled. "But anyways...Yeah Cory is coming in and his siblings. Nothing really out there." "I'll probably be staying home." I told the group. "You should come with me to Panama!" Emma said all excitingly. "How come he gets to go to Panama and not me?" Macy asked. As the two of them talked and the other guys listened in on their conversation, Kurt whispered into my ear. "If you want, you can stay with me all of Spring Break. Daniel and Kasey are supposed to go camping so they can `reconnect.' It'd just be you and me." I gulped and crossed my legs. The idea of being alone with Kurt just...it did things to me that I'd rather not talk about. Once the girls were finally done with their debate, they had decided that we'd all go on some sort of vacation together in the summer, probably to Daniel and Kurt's lake house. The house was way out of their budget, but it belonged to their mother and her side of the family still let's their dad use it when he wants to, as long as he gives them a notice. "So, do you wanna go to Panama with me?" Emma asked me once more. "I think I'll just stay home. It'll give me some time to myself. Having Macy over every weekend has ruined any kind of quiet time." "Dang...I don't know what I'd do if I didn't have my mastubation time." Kurt said, finally back to his old self. This sent the girls into a fit of laughter as the other guys blushed. "What?! We all know guys masturbate when they way they're going to have some alone time." The girls were then sent into an even worse fit of laughter, at one point I thought Macy was going to die, but sadly she was okay. Again the girls were distracting the other guys and again Kurt whispered into my ear. "My recent fantasies have all been about you." This made me turn more red that a fire truck. This made Kurt lose it and he joined the girls in their near death laughter. Daniel, Kasey, and Brennan had no idea what was going on and kinda just gave up. After a little more of the bantering and conversation, we decided to head in. I had to put cover over the outside furniture since it looked like it was going to rain and Brennan decided to help me. When it was just the two of us, he came over to me and kissed me on the lips. At first I was shocked but like every time we've done this I sorta melted. When our lips separated he blushed. "Sorry. I couldn't help myself." "It's cool. You never told us what you're doing over Spring Break." "I didn't want to bring it up with all of them around." "What is it?" "Mine and Mason's families decided to go back to Texas for a while to see some family. I felt like bringing Mason up would make things awkward." "It's cool now, I guess. Thanks for thinking of my feelings first though. I hope you all have a good time down there." "Thanks. And there is something I want to talk to you about." Brennan seemed a little nervous. "What is it?" "Well...the other day I met this gay couple and we talked. It was nice having someone to talk to. They told me about how they met and what it's been like since they've been together and I really want you to meet them." "Why me?" "I kinda told them about you and they seemed really interested in meeting you." "How did you meet them?" I was confused. Brennan didn't seem like the kind of guy who would hook up with someone but you never know. "Through GSA. I went to the college's branch and met some of the guys there. Don't worry I didn't like shack up with any of them." "Good. I don't want my little Brennan to chase after older guys." I wrapped my arm around him as we finished our work. Brennan rested his head on my shoulder as we walked inside. "Even if I tried none of them would want me. I should probably just start collecting cats." "Don't say that! One day you'll bump into the perfect guy for you and you two will live happily ever after." Just then, ironically, I accidentally knocked Brennan into to Daniel. I got some of the impact but most of it was Brennan. "Sorry." I said to both Daniel and Brennan as I helped Brennan up. It seemed like Daniel was in a hurry because Brennan and I were barely walking yet the impact nearly caused Brennan to fly backwards. I looked up at Daniel's face and he was crying. "What's wrong?" Brennan backed away and gave me the look, telling me to comfort him. I rolled my eyes at Brennan and wrapped my arms around Daniel in an embrace, I forgot how perfect it felt to have him in my arms. "Kasey. We broke up." Daniel was now full-on crying. "Just now?!" I looked at Brennan the look, telling him to go check out what happened. He rolled his eyes and proceeded towards the living room. "Yeah. I had his phone a-a-and I looked and s-s-saw a text. N-normally he doesn't mind me checking his phone s-so I r-read it and-" at this point he began crying hard again. "Shhh. It's okay. Just let it all out. Wait and tell me when you've calmed down." We just stood there for a few minutes. He was crying on my shoulder and I was standing there holding him. I didn't mind whatsoever because I knew that despite all the shit that we've gone through recently, the Daniel I still love is somewhere in there. Daniel quickly spat out the next few words before he could begin to cry again. "I found out he was cheating." "With who?" The two of us sat down at the island in the kitchen. "I don't know. All I can remember seeing is the text that was telling him he had the house to himself and wanted to know if Kasey was up for sex." "I'm so sorry, Daniel. What did you say?" I didn't want to pry but normally telling someone what happened makes me feel better so I wanted to do everything I could to make Daniel feel better. "I began to yell at him and he tried calming me down and explaining what happened but I couldn't listen, I just keep yelling at him and crying and then I ended it. I was running out to the back door when I ran into you and Brennan." "It'll be okay. You'll find someone who will treat you right someday." Daniel then looked up at me. I don't know what came over me but I gently pulled his head towards mine and we kissed. This was only the third time he and I kissed, the other two times being the two times I rejected him. This time, though, it felt right. Daniel and I just fit so perfectly together. I know things have been rough but in time everything could return to normal and I could have the old Daniel back. The one who gave me his shirt when I ran into Isabella the first day of school. We broke our kiss when we heard someone clear their throat. I looked to see who it was and it was Emma. "I don't want to ruin a good moment but could you all come into the living room? We're all sitting there awkwardly waiting for something to happen." Emma then turned and left, obviously embarrassed. This made me and Daniel smile. I then needed to tell Daniel something: "I know that we just like kissed and I know we're both single but I don't want us to really jump into a relationship anytime soon. I'm still getting over Mason and you're just starting to get over Kasey. I think it's best if we stay friends for a while." I could tell Daniel didn't want to hear that, but he took it pretty well. "Yeah. I guess you're right. If we ever get the chance to date I don't want it to be ruined because neither of us were really ready for a relationship." "Thanks for understanding." "Thanks for always being by my side, even when I was a complete ass to you." I giggled. "That's what friends are for, right?" "Yeah. Friends." The two of us left then kitchen and joined Brennan, Kurt, Emma, and Macy in the livingroom. Like Emma had said, they were all just sitting there awkwardly. Kurt looked like he had a black eye but I knew right now was not the best time to ask him what had happened after Daniel and Kasey broke up. The six of us sat and watched TV together. After a while everything was back to normal, for the most part, and we were all able to carry on a conversation. Daniel still seemed bummed but at the same time it's like he knew that it wouldn't work out because he also seemed like his old self already. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Every time I read a story of Nifty, I never read the top part, so just in case you are like me and only read the bottom portion if you liked the story, here is my email again: wah.stories@yahoo.com.
