Chapter Text
Third Person:
It was later in the evening now, he lay there on his back on the floor, gazing up at the ceiling having thought's and scene' of the same boy flashing through his head.. Some one's of him just being happy and joyful other's that are a bit more heated which Jake is not very hard but he is trying to keep out of his mind, his face his hot from both the heat of earlier and well Albert. He can't take this anymore, thinking about some guy who doesn't love him nor like him back after a miss understanding! But what was Jake to do? He couldn't really call Albert as he was blocked and he had no idea where he lived or might be.. Maybe he could get into contact with one of his friends like Kaden? But would he even tell Jake a thing!? This was driving poor Jake crazy, insane even.
After a few seconds which felt like hours he scrubbed his face with a hand before pushing himself up and onto this feet before walking out into the kitchen where his mother sat preparing what seemed to be orange juice! She looked back at Jake as he entered before looking back at the jug.
"Look who finally decided to join the rest of us" She remarked, a flick of her tail made it very clear she was annoyed.
"Ah sorry mom.. Just been down about someone" Jake muttered as he took a seat at the table, crossing his arms on the wooden surface and resting his head in the little circle it made.
"Someone? Is it that girl you dated because I thought you got over her-" She spoke quickly before Jake cut her off "No mom it isn't.. It's a guy"
She paused, turning slowly to look at him. "A guy? This better be in like a friends way and he better me a claw!" She spat, he ears flattening against her head as she stalked over to where Jake was sat.
He didn't respond. He knew if he said no it would be a lie and she would see right through it.. There was no way out of this
"Jacob Green. This kid better be a claw.." She hissed lowly
"I'm sorry mom.." He mumbled, not looking at her out of shame. His own ears flattened to his head and his tail curled around the leg of the chair.
"Listen hear boy. You better get over this guy, you hear me? I don't care how much you "love him" it isn't a claw nor is it a girl. The gay's are sick people and mentally ill. I will not be having my son become one and I will not have our name be spread around because the son of the house is gay!" Her voice was high, it dripped with venom as she snarled at him. Very close to doing something very very wrong.
"Yes mom.. I will.. I don't want to be.. A gay.." He whimpered, he knew if he didn't agree she would explode. He knew if he didn't agree she would hit him or kick him out. He knew she might take away dinner if he didn't agree, no matter how hard it was to agree he did it because he knew. He knew..
"Go to your room till that sun is out." She spay before turning away and stalking to her own room with the flick of her tail
Jake sat there for a few more second, dragging himself to his feet with tear's pricking at the corners of his eyes. He got back to his room quickly and threw himself onto the bed with a broken sob as he broke down. Why? Why couldn't she except him for this? Why was it so wrong to love someone of the same sex as well as from a different class? Why was this so bad..? Jake sobbed, sobbed for an hour before he finally was able to gather himself (and his mother came in and told him to man up and stop being a pussy). Now he lay there, not stopping his mind from wandering to Albert and anything his mind could think of.. Most of his was about Albert, some dirty some sad or cute who knows.. After a second Jake got an idea! He pulled his phone out and texted Denis very quickly, it was simple message but was clear "Please let me camp out at urs for a bit,i need to tell u smth and i feel like my moms going to start drinking again.." He hit sent without a second thought. Denis read it and a minute or so later replied "Yeah ofc dude, my parents said it was fine too so come on over." Jake's face brighten and he packed a backpack and another easy to carry bag quickly before opening his window all the way and throwing them outside before climbing out himself and closing the window. Now was the fun part of getting to Denis's at 10:36pm.
He almost ran to Denis, key word almost as half way he got very very tired as well as it was late so he sped walk until that was to much and he just walked.. It's wasn't bad though and nothing bad did happen! He made it to Denis's safely with all of his stuff! Once inside he and Denis sat down on the other boys bedroom floor with ice pops. For a long time they were very silent before Jake spoke
"I have a crush on a guy" He just spoke it without a thought, the moment he did though both guys stop eating and just looked at each other
"Uh okay dude, is that why you didn't feel safe at yours?" He tilted his head to the side, oh Denis you wonderful yet sorta stupid man.
"Yes that's one of the reason but the other reason is that's it's a Wing.." Jake looked away from his friend, scared to see what the other's reaction would be.
"Ohhh, that make's more sense yeah.. It's that Albert isn't it?" He flicked his tail from one side to the other before it rested beside him.
"Wha- you're not mad or something?" Jake's ear's pircked up, Denis was very chill about this all?
"Why would I be? As long as you're happy what's wrong with it?"
Jake sniffled and before either of them knew it, he was crying. "T-thank you Denis, you don't get how much that means" He threw his arm's around his friend who was first caught by surprise before returning the hug.
"Any time dude, I wish you luck on trying to get him though.."
Jake nodded, agreeing but at this moment he didn't care. He was tired and happy and sad and just filled with a sort of hope.
"We should get going to bed soon though" Denis said as he pulled away from Jake and finished off his ice pop.
"Yeah.. I'm tired as fuck." Jake nodded in agreement before finishing his own ice pop off and looking at Denis. "Could I have a pillow and sleeping bag, please?"
Denis nodded before padding off to go get this stuff for Jake. Once he returned he gave the boy this stuff to set up for the night. Finally able to settle down and get some rest Jake didn't take long to drift off. The world was quiet and peaceful for the two. For Albert though...
For Albert, how to describe the world for this poor boy.. It was loud to say the least, beeping and the noise of a hospital that was rushing about through the entire night. There was nothing to do and he couldn't fall asleep with all this noise.. So he barely did. A thought that kept creeping into Albert's mind though, it was the same and always about one person. Jake. How was he doing? Did he miss Albert? Did Albert miss him? Only they knew what they thought of the other but would they ever know that they thought about each other in the same way?
