Oh and I accepted an invitation to Oliver's Party wow it seems I really am Growing up, well I hope I am I guess we will find out. ******************************************************************************* The next day I was nervous about going to Olivers Party tonight , what would happen , who would be there , who would want me there , the only upside to it all was I knew my best friend would be there with me. As I walked to my locker my mind was on constant overload with things , such as where I was headed in life,who would be in my life who wouldn't be in my life, I know I over analyze things and I always think about the past , but at this point it's helping me cope a little I guess. I put in my combination on the lock and opened my lock I put my book bag inside and took out my American History book . I should write a book on my history so far it didn't look too good. "hey Steve" I heard a voice behind me it was Oliver "hi Oliver" I smiled at him he smiled back "so are you really coming to my party or are you twisting my chain" he stated "I'm coming , oh wow that sounds familiar" he laughed so did I " yes it does" he looked dead in my eyes , his sparking brown eyes were taunting in a way that makes you want him and forget about any of his flaws or mistakes "you should go before Amanda comes and think something is going on" I stated "I don't care what she thinks, Maybe.." Mark approached "hey Stevie, so I was wondering if you could help me with my history assignment" he leaned in way to close I notice Oliver face change "it's due today in like ten minutes" I stated he smiled "I know and I promise I will do it at home like it was intended but I really need your help, I wont copy your work just talk me through it" I tussled his hair "fine okay lets go, Oliver I guess I'll see you tonight" we walked away , I had the sudden urge to look back and I did , Oliver still was standing there with that look on his face , I couldn't tell that look , because I never seen it before was he angry ,sad , didn't care , his eyes were dim not bright how they were a few minutes ago. Maybe Ollie was regretting what he did. *** "So The Tea Party was the resistance movement throughout British America against the Tea Act that England wanted to pass, but the Boston tea party was directly in Boston where the colonist went against the British Government and dumped all the tea in the harbor , I understand that but why?" mark asked as he was writing "because of many issues mark , first the British Parliament in 1773 Passed the law in which this could go in effect. That's when things went crazy, Colonists objected to the Tea Act , especially because they believed that there rights were being violated. And imagine if you were being taxed by another country wouldn't you want to be taxed only by your own elected representatives" he smiled at me "your all Handsome and brains" he leaned in and kissed me , his tongue slid in my mouth we were actually making out in the lounge area for anyone to see . Then we heard the clearing of a voice we broke apart "wow what do we have here" it was Josh "so I guess you have moved on from you know who and you are with Mark Delauro" Josh looked amused "dude you cant" josh stopped him "Mark , Steven is my best friend I wont if he doesn't want me too , so how long have you crazy kids been seeing each other" he asked "we aren't I mean , we haven't , Josh go away" I replied "I have to use the bathroom" mark got up and left out Josh sat down "really, another Jock Steven, this isn't good ,Jocks have an image to maintain , he will never be there for you fully" Josh stated " I know, I'm not looking for anything like that , we are having fun it's okay" josh seemed to be relieved "okay, just be careful, so on another matter I called the number and it was Lauren, can you believe that Lauren Johnson is so hot" "that's great, I on the other hand know that Mark gave me the watch but didn't give me the other gift , what if it was someone that I am not thinking about , maybe another guy that is interested" . the bell rung and i had to get to class . I put my mind at eased and focused on my classes soon it was lunch time Lunch I walked into the Cafeteria and saw Mark sitting at my table I went over "what are you doing here, your lunch hour is next period" I asked as I sat down next to him "I know , Will Josh be a problem for me, I mean " I shook my head no "Don't worry about it , no one will know your deep dark secret" I stated "its not that ,I don't know I'm just a coward I guess" "no your not , you don't want to be in the position I was last year , I wouldn't want anyone to go through what I been through, your not a coward your great" he smiled at me "so your eating with us now" I heard Oliver's voice he and Amanda sat down at the table "Um, I was just going, Oliver you have a problem with me or something" Mark asked "no Problem, I was just asking a question" mark stood up " I have to get back to class , Steven Thanks" he left out "you and Mark are really Tight these days" he added "yeah I guess we are" Oliver looked at me for a minute then focused on Amanda they started talking virtually leaving out of there conversation I stood up " enjoy lunch" I said and walked away and out of the lunchroom. soon school was over I made up my mind I wasn't going to Oliver's party then I decided I would again , I got home and decided I was going to dress up, look hot , I took out a red and white button up shirt , my stone wash jeans and my Abercrombie undies , you never know ha ha , I took a shower , then styled my hair , I never styled my hair it seemed like a waste most days but tonight I wanted to look good , I did my homework watched a little T.V then I took a shower after that I got dressed ,and I sprayed some Tommy Hilfiger true star men on I put on my sneakers , by the time I finished it was six thirty , I looked in the mirror made sure I looked good , I smiled at myself , I never looked this good , I thought , I went downstairs "oh , wow Steven , you look great what happened , I mean you always look nice but you put extra effort" mom said I smiled "going to a party just thought I would look nice" she smiled then kissed me on the cheek dad walked by "bye dad" I said he kept walking , he still hadn't talk to me , since I came out . I hated this but it was his decision to not talk" I left out to my car and drove to Oliver's house ************************************************************************************************* Flashback No one would talk to me in school , I was alone , people pushed me tormented me , I had no one, josh turned his back on me , so did my other friends, Josh came into school and walked down the hall actually coming towards me I thought he would stop this madness and talk to me but he bumped me and kept walking , I sat down on the floor near my locker completely hurt and humiliated no one wanted to be around me i was alone and a little afraid , i wanted to rewind everything that happened and go back to a better time but that was impossible i couldn't go back. "hey, are you alright?" I looked up into the purest brown eyes I'd ever seen they showed no hatred or Malice like the other kids held his name was Oliver Greyson , he played for our football team at Lincoln High, well he starting play recently , he wasn't important on the team but he would be he was hot, tall brown hair that looked soft to touch just perfect "I'm good thank you " he smiled and sat down beside me " I'm Oliver by the way" he stated extending his hand "Steven" we shook hands , I felt electricity shoot threw my arm it scared me , he looked at me wide eyed I think he felt it too, he leaned in and our lips met , what was happening I never been kissed before and stuff like this doesn't happen maybe this was a sick dream no it wasn't a dream this was real , he pulled back and looked around , no one was in the halls "I'm sorry" I stated he smiled "for what I kissed you don't be sorry for that, hey don't worry about these Douche bags around here, People like us have to stick together" ********************************************************************************************* That was the start of a doomed relationship, I thought , I parked my car and walked up the drive way people looked at me , a few girls were smiling at me . I went inside the music was blasting, people were dancing kissing drinking talking , you know the regular teen parties , I saw Oliver and Amanda dancing , I was fine , I think my heart was really healing , then his eye caught mine , he did a double take , he just stared I laughed then josh wrapped his arm around my shoulder "dude what happen , you look good did you magically get a make over" "haha very funny , need a drink" I said he laughed and went back over to Lauren . I went into the kitchen , Mark was In there with a few friends they were playing suck and blow, with a credit card , you put it to your mouth and suck on it the next person comes and place there mouth on the other side of the card and sucks it you blow it to them as they sucking, its just passing the card around using your mouth but if it drops your lip touches the other person, it is usually a drinking game as well , Mark had it and passed it to Megan , but the card dropped , and they kissed , actually started making out , it bothered me, but he wasn't mine so I shrugged my shoulders and got a beer "hey Steven come play" Megan said Mark turned around and saw me looking he looked serious as if he been caught but I smiled and so did he "okay" I took the card "come on Mark lets play" I stated I sucked on the card he put his mouth on the other end I dropped it on purpose and was kissing him, I backed away the kids playing were rooting us on , they didn't care we kissed again. "what's going on" we separated , Oliver looked at me then Mark just looking back and forth he looked kind of angry "oh Oliver relax have fun, tonight is tonight what ever happens here stays here" a few of the guys agreed , then everyone started kissing each other it was only like six of us , I saw a guy kissing another guy, they were drunk as hell and they kissed Megan and her friend , Oliver kept looking at him with a bothered look on his face , as if he was judging me I didn't like that. "come on Mark lets take a walk" I said he smiled at me and we went to the back yard "that was interesting" I stated "yeah it was , Steve you look great" he stated and his lips met mine again I felt his long fingers wrap around the back of my neck this kiss was intense. My heart was pounding I was getting light headed he backed away "are you drunk" I asked "no , I don't drink silly , I like you" he stated " I'm sorry this looks all to familiar" I stated "what do you mean" he asked "I fell for another straight boy , well I thought he was gay but he left me for a girl , and I see the same patterns , I cant keep doing this" I said " trust me , I don't want another girl Steven" he said "are you serious all you do is date girls" I stated "that's because I was scared of what other people would say or do , Steven I'm gay" he said I couldn't believe this , not hot jock Mark who have the girls swooning over him. "Mark you out here , were about to make cookies" we heard one of his friends "okay I'll be right in" they went in the house "Cookies , wow how exciting" I stated he laughed "come on" he said "no I want to be out here for a little while you go" he smiled and kissed me then went in the house I sat down on the swings . And looked up at the stars , it was peaceful out here "So I think I have to say it" I looked over and saw Oliver he stopped right in front of me "say what?" I asked "I love you Steven , you have my heart" he leaned over and kissed me I couldn't believe Oliver said that to me , and the best part is , I loved him too " I love you too Oliver" I stood up he hugged me tightly "this feels good" "Steven!" I snapped out of it, I was freaking dreaming really brain!, Oliver was standing in front of me he sat down on the swing next to me "brings back memories don't it" he looked at me "yeah, good ones" I stated. It went quiet "so are you seeing anyone" he asked I shook my head no "I have a interest in someone , don't know how it will go but I feel positive about it" it went quiet again "Steve , you've been there for me when no one wasn't and I hurt you because I was curious about what it would be like to be with a girl" I didn't know what to say "Oliver it was in the past I'm not going to dwell on it , you hurt me so bad , I really thought me and you were solid , in fact that night I came over to surprise you with Black Eyed Peas tickets I bought them for us , I knew how much you loved them , that's when I saw you with her" he put his head down and looked back up at me he had tears in his eyes " I'm so sorry" he began to cry I stood up and bent down in front of him and held out my arms we hugged I got a little misty eyes myself "its okay , I don't ever want to hate you for finding yourself its just the way you did it Oliver , it sucked" he held me tight I missed this , him for a second it felt like I had my boyfriend back , I pulled back " our faces seemed to be drawing together like a magnet and metal , then our lips met it was different then mark kiss but both were equally mind blowing his tongue attacked the inside of my mouth then I stopped it " I cant , I'm sorry , your with Amanda and I'm moving on" I stood up "yeah, your moving on" was all he could say "lets go back in " he stood up " do you think we can be friends at least" he asked I smiled " I would love that" he smiled back, it was a painful smile . We walked back in as friends. ********************************************************** So it seems like One paring is getting started and another is dead but from the death of a relationship could turn into a real friendship, Steven is Just trying to find himself like you and I , maybe the talk Steven and Oliver shared was what they both needed to move on, or maybe the talk is what will bring them back together, you never know .
