BLUE Chapter Twenty-Five
“Hey.” “Hey.” They both simultaneously broke into smiles and turned in the direction of the announcer who had already gotten there and was ready to announce whatever she had to say. Alex shoved his hands into his pocket, stylishly watching Seb as he folded his. He looked tired. Exhausted, even. His t-shirt looked rumpled compared to how it looked earlier and his hair looked dishevelled, lacking its natural style. “Was it stressful working over there?” “No, it was okay,” like he heard his thoughts, Seb replied then ran his hands through his hair like he was trying to make it look smooth. “It felt weird not seeing you around for almost a whole day.” “Don’t be dramatic,” Alex faked a scowl. “Nothing should be weird about that.” “It did though,” Seb said, giving Alex a quick glance. “Um, earlier. Who was that guy you were talking to?” “Oh, you mean George?” “Is that his name?” “Yeah,” Alex turned to notice Seb had folded his arms again and was looking away from him. His eyebrows

It took Alex only a few seconds to realize he wasn't sleeping on the floor anymore.He turned and instead of feeling the hard cold floor against his body, he felt a soft and warm duvet wrapped around him.Immediately, his eyes shut open and he got up from the bed, confirming he was truly no longer on the floor.What the hell had happened the previous night?Was it not all a dream?"You're up," Seb's voice pulled him out of his momentary trance. "Good morning."He looked up at him as he strode across the room. He was fully clothed in dark jeans and a sweatshirt. His hair looked freshly washed and in total, he looked like he had gotten up ages ago and was ready to go."How did I get here?" Alex asked him, pulling the sheets away from him. "On the bed, I mean. I clearly remember falling asleep on the floor so how?""You don't remember?" There was a confusing look in Seb's eyes as he asked. "Well, it got really cold yesterday so I helped you up. To the bed.""Oh," Alex had more questions

SEBASTIAN KEATES: Hey SEBASTIAN KEATES: Can you come over? It was an unusual text to be received from Seb so early. Especially considering the fact that they hadn’t spoken to each other ever since the last day of volunteering. Alex: Um, why? His reply came in few minutes later. SEBASTIAN KEATES: I’m going shopping for my birthday party and could use an extra hand SEBASTIAN KEATES: You wouldn’t be attending anyways. SEBASTIAN KEATES: It’s the least you could do with me, don’t you think? Alex fought the urge to roll his eyes as he texted his reply. Alex: Fine, I’ll be there. SEBASTIAN KEATES: I could pick you up if you want Alex: You don’t have to. I can manage. SEBASTIAN KEATES: I’ll be expecting you then He slid his phone down his pocket and got up from his bed, grabbing a hoodie resting by his bedside. He had taken his bath and was all freshened up. Having no class he had decided on spending his entire day indoors, literally expecting no interruptions. He jumped down t
BLUE Chapter Twenty-Eight
On letting the words out, Seb took a deep exhale and rested his head on his lap. He remained in that position for a while in silence then later raised his head to look at Alex. “You aren’t saying anything,” he said to Alex. “Why? You aren’t all that surprised, right?” “No, it’s not that,” Alex spoke up for the first time in a while. A whole lot had been running through his mind ever since he came out to him and he had at least a dozen questions for him. “How long have you known you were you know, gay?” “Pretty much since high school,” Seb replied. “Junior high, actually. Right since I was in elementary school and all the guys would talk about the girls they had crushes on, I never had a crush on any girl. I used to think there was just no girl in our grade I liked until I realized there was actually no girl I liked. It was always boys for me.” “Oh,” Alex’s number of questions doubled. “If you’ve known since that long…why do you have a girlfriend now?” “About Madison,” he press
BLUE Chapter Twenty-Nine
Alex: Hey Tasha Alex: Do you perhaps want to go to a party with me? Alex: Remember Seb? It's his. Alex sat on his bed, anxiously waiting for a reply from Tasha. He might have agreed to go to Seb's party but he couldn't imagine going alone. It was going to be a party with half of the coolest people in college and he sure as hell wasn't ready to withstand it alone. Tasha: OMG you're also going? Tasha: I'd have loved to go with you too but I have a family function so I can't Tasha: 😭 "Shit," Alex muttered as he read her messages. Alex: Oh, no. It's totally fine. He groaned and curled on his bed. This was what lack of friends did. He racked his brain again, trying to think of anyone else he could ask but found none, leaving him with his last choice. He got up and walked out of his room, heading to his cousin's. His aunt was out and had left the house to just him and his cousin. "Lucas?" He placed a gentle knock on his door. "Are you in?" "Yeah," he heard Lucas drawl from in
BLUE Chapter Thirty
He was a little far from Alex but close enough for him to see him clearly. He could only see his upper body and he could see he was putting on a leather jacket with a plain white t-shirt underneath. Thanks to the lightening of the house, his hair was glistening and his blue eyes just seemed to light up as he spoke. He was surrounded by a bunch of guys Alex concluded to be his friend. By his side, was his girlfriend and she had her whole body pressed against him as she talked and giggled at intervals. He couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed at the sight. He couldn't bring himself to look away though as he kept on staring at him from his distance. He was talking and laughing at his friends over and over, making Alex wonder what was so funny. Alex felt his stomach turn as he watched Seb finally take a break from talking and laughing with his friends. He turned his head and looked around the party like he was searching for someone. Alex suddenly felt self conscious. He pressed h
BLUE Chapter Thirty-One
“Can I kiss you?” Alex swallowed, feeling Seb’s intent gaze on him. His breathing was slow, his lips slightly parted as he stared at him, anticipating a response. Fear gripped Alex as he watched every single wall he had built up between him and his feelings come crashing down. There was only so much he could take and he knew he had finally reached his limit. Seb’s grip on his hand pinned against the wall, loosened, Alex finally gaining control of his hands. “Seb.” He simply nodded and without hesitation, Seb got rid of every distance between their faces, crashing his lips on Alex’s. Alex felt his body melt, his hormones shooting up as he returned the kiss. Slowly, he raised his hand to place his on Seb’s shoulder and like he gave him permission, Seb took it as a cue to slowly deepen the kiss. The kiss was soft and slow as they both responded with burning need and passion. Seb’s arms were wrapped around Alex’s waist, pulling him closer to him as his other hand was wrapped behind

“For the millionth time Sebastian Keates, what is wrong with you?!” “Sophia-” “Do not even try to tell me it’s nothing again,” Sophia almost yelled at Seb. “You’ve been oddly glum the whole day. You were barely yourself, you seemed lost in thoughts more than half the day and now you’re lyng.” “Actually-” “Did you have a fight with your freshman boy? Alex?” Sophia asked, Seb immediately turning to face her. “Ah, I’m guessing that’s it.” “What? No! We didn’t fight, I promise,” he quickly said. “What made you even guess this is about him?” “Cause I’m suddenly remembering how you were staring at him pretty much throughout lunch,” she replied. “Is there something you want to tell me, Sebastian? I’m your best friend, remember.” He was silent for a while then let out a deep exhale. “Yeah, you’re my best friend.” “Are you confirming that right now?” “No, I’m reminding you,” he said, Sophia rolling her eyes. “Which means you have to be on my side no matter what, right?” “Isn’t tha
