Date: Mon, 30 May 2022 16:29:00 +0100 From: Andrew Passey Subject: Coming Out Part Fourteen (Young Friends) I woke up with sunlight streaming through the curtains. For a moment I couldn't remember where I was but then the events of last night slowly came back to me and I realised I was in Jamie's bed. I heard heavy breathing and looked over to see Jamie sleeping on the floor which instantly made me feel really bad. I'd taken his bed and been sick on his clothes! What a mess I'd made of everything. I quietly got out of bed and went and had a piss and realised I actually felt fine. I expected a hangover but maybe throwing everything up last night had helped. I brushed my teeth with a toothbrush I found, gargled some mouthwash and I splashed my face with cold water. I went back into the bedroom and Jamie stirred, "You okay Sam?" He asked as I got back into bed. "Yeah fine thanks to you, tired though. I need more sleep. There's plenty of room in your bed so don't sleep on the floor!" I said shuffling over to leave Jamie some room. He looked grateful and his semi naked body got into bed next to me. Funny really, finally in bed with the boy I fancied, both of us in just our pants but only because I'd got drunk and messed up last night. Fuck, it all flooded back to me, that I'd told him last night that I fancied him. I closed my eyes, maybe if I went to sleep all of this would go away. I woke up a while later. Jamie was awake and on his phone, "Morning again Sam! Just messaged Tom to say you're still asleep but you're fine." "Thanks," I said with a smile. "So.........," Jamie said leaving it open ended before following up with "What do you remember from last night?" "Charlie um...groping me. Me being drunk. You saving me from him. Me being sick." "Yeah Charlie feels terrible about it. Says he was drunk as well and you maybe misinterpreted things." "I'm not sure you can misinterpret someone shoving their hand into your pants!" I said in a terse tone. "Yeah but alcohol makes people go crazy. Do you....do you remember what you said to me before you were sick?" I stayed silent before saying,"Would it be better if I pretended I didn't?" Jamie shrugged, "Words once said can't be unsaid. But honesty is the best policy. Sorry I sound like one of those weird motivational posters at school or something!" I giggled before I simply said "Yes I do remember." "Oh. Did you mean it? Or was it the booze talking?" Jamie had given me an out. I could use it but maybe he was right, maybe honesty was the best policy. "I meant it. Can we still be friends even though I um...fancy you." "I'm not sure," Jamie said, causing my heart to feel like it had fallen into an abyss. "Oh." "Sorry maybe I didn't say that right. Because maybe we can't be friends...just friends anyway....maybe I want more than friends. But I'm so confused, I only ever fancied girls till I met you. But...you've done something to me Sam. You've got inside my heart. I feel like...I don't know like we click on so many levels. But if I go with this then what happens if it all goes wrong? I'd hate to lose you as a friend. Also then if I fancy you what does that make me if I only liked girls till now?" My heart had soared out of the abyss and was now doing cartwheels across the sky! "You think too much Jamie! What did you say the other day, life is about experiences, about taking risks! As for what you are, you don't have to rush to figure it out. Clearly you aren't gay like me if you like girls but you can be Bi! Or maybe even pansexual!" "What's that?!" Jamie asked curiously. "Actually I don't know, I think it's where you fancy someone for who they are not because of what they are but I might be wrong." "But what if I'm wrong?" Jamie asked softly, looking confused. I suddenly felt braver than I ever had before, "If you feel the way you think you do then it's unlikely you're wrong. But why don't you kiss me and we find out?!" Jamie looked at me nervously, "I don't know.l..I want to I think but I've never kissed a boy before." "I've never kissed anyone!" I said with a shy smile before realising I probably needed to take the lead. I leaned in and our lips brushed before we both opened our mouths to kiss properly. Tongues danced inside our mouths as we kissed and oh my god it was amazing. My senses were on fire and all those dreams I'd had were finally coming true! "Jamie, Marcus has been sick in the kitchen!" We broke apart as Danny knocked on the door. Jamie quickly got dressed and said he'd be back. I lay there in his bed feeling on top of the world. I'd kissed Jamie! I wanted to stay in bed and wait for Jamie to come back but I suspected there was a lot of cleaning up to do. Cleaning wasn't my favourite thing to do at all but my Mum had made sure me and Tom pulled our weight at home. So I was no stranger to a vacuum cleaner or a mop! I dragged myself out of bed and looked for my clothes. I then remembered that my trousers were either being washed or had been washed. I got dressed apart from them, standing there in my pants and shirt. I rummaged in Jamie's drawers, trying not to get excited about having my hands on his clean pants! I eventually found a pair of basketball shorts which looked much too big on me but would do the job while I found my trousers. "You look ridiculous!" I heard Danny say as soon as I walked into the front room. "Yeah I know but bloody Charlie spilt his drink on my trousers, accidentally on purpose." Danny's face darkened, "That arsehole. He was spreading rumours about you when you'd gone to bed before I firmly put him in his place. Don't worry, we've got your back. You might want to find your trousers though, you'll freeze to death in those!" I wandered into the kitchen where Jamie was using the mop on the tiled floor. "At least you managed to spew in the toilet Sam!" He said with a wry smile on his face. "Yeah sorry about that, um do you know where my trousers are?" Jamie looked around to check if we were alone and came close to me, "You look hot as fuck in my shorts!" He whispered before going into another room and coming back with my now dry trousers. I gratefully pulled off the shorts giving Jamie a quick flash of my pants clad bum and pulled the trousers on, "Fuck, the things you make me feel Sam...." Jamie looked slightly hot and flustered. I grinned at him, "you can feel any bit of me you want to!" "I reckon the house is just about clean enough, if you don't need me I'll head home," Danny said, coming into the kitchen and breaking the moment. He yawned, "I think I might spend the afternoon in bed." Mmm an afternoon in bed with Jamie sounded appealing but I didn't know his plans and I guess I had to go home soon. Jamie went and kicked Marcus out of Jacob's room and there were a couple of other boys in various rooms of the house. Half an hour later everyone was gone aside from the two of us, we sat on the sofa together as I messaged Tom to tell him I'd be home soon, When I'd finished Jamie looked at me nervously, "So was what we did earlier okay with you?" I giggled, "Okay?! Okay?!?! It was what I've dreamed of ever since I met you! I hope you still feel the same now you've woken up properly?" He smiled at me, "I do, well I think I do. I'm not going to lie, I feel really confused about everything. As I said, you're the only boy I've ever felt anything for but fucking hell it's hit me like a train. I definitely want to kiss you again!" "Well what are you waiting for?" I asked and I pulled him on top of me on the sofa as we kissed. We pressed our bodies together as we did and I felt my dick harden. I started to push into him until he broke off our kiss. "Um Sam,...I'm not quite ready to do more than kissing yet. I'm sure I will be! I want to! But....not yet.. I just need time, I want to take things slowly." "Kissing is always fine with me!" I said and we kissed again for what felt like hours before I knew it was time to go home. We kissed goodbye and I walked home feeling like I was floating. I toyed with the idea of telling Tom exactly what had happened but I wasn't sure how he'd react when he knew what Charlie had done let alone me and Jamie getting together. Were we even together anyway? All we'd done was kiss so far. So for now I decided to keep it to myself. Mum fussed over me when I got home and I told her it had been great and no problems whatsoever. She looked relieved and said she was pleased it had worked out well. "Make sure you thank Tom for looking out for you, you know he needed to persuade me that you should go. I know I need to give you more freedom, it's just hard to think of my little boy growing up!" She hugged me as she said this and I protested, "Mum! I'm fourteen!" "Not too old to be hugged by me! Now I bet you've left your homework until today haven't you? Better go and get it done then!" She said as I nodded. I ran upstairs and knocked on Tom's door. "I'm on my way out little bro but I hope your head isn't too sore?" I smiled, "I'm fine!" "Good, I want to hear all about it later or maybe tomorrow depending how late I'm back!" Tom headed out and I went to do my homework. I thought about messaging Jamie but wanted to play it cool so I focused on my science and maths. It wasn't until I'd gone to bed that I picked my phone up. I'd gone to bed much earlier than normal, tired after last night's exertions! "You okay Sam? Haven't heard from you since you got home!" Jamie's WhatsApp message said, "I'm fine! This morning was the happiest I've ever felt in my life," I replied back. I could see he was typing his reply, then deleting it, then typing it again. "Me too! I'm so happy you're my boyfriend but don't tell anybody yet please. I need to work out how I feel about everything before we start going around announcing things. "Fine with me! So this means we are boyfriends!?" I sent back excitedly. "Well yes!? I don't usually kiss someone I'm not going out with. You're a boy, ergo you're my boyfriend! Unless you don't want to be...." "I want it more than anything in the world!" I sent back. "I wish you were still here so we could kiss some more!" "I can send you dick pics if you want..." I knew I was pushing it a lot with this but then again when he'd given me his number he'd mentioned not sending any so I thought I'd have some fun with it. He didn't reply straight away, "I'm fairly sure that doesn't count as "taking things slowly!"although I have already seen it!" "You can see it anytime you like!" "Yh. Let's not rush things, taking our time will mean it'll be worth it when we take things further." Reading that made my dick go instantly hard. Taking things further! One day I'd have my hand on his dick, maybe even my mouth...then eventually....no too much to think that far ahead. I wasn't ready to go that far either. So I just sent a simple message to him: "Very sensible (and slightly boring)!" "Romantic I think you mean rather than sex crazed!" "I'm off to sleep now, see you tomorrow!"I considered adding a xxxx at the end but I didn't want to scare him off "Hope you dream of me..." "I usually do!" As I drifted off to sleep I almost had to pinch myself to check I wasn't dreaming. I'd kissed Jamie! Suddenly we were a couple and I felt the happiest I'd ever felt. My life had been so chaotic and difficult since I'd been outed, now things were finally looking up.
