7 Months In The Rain Ch 2
Chapter 2
During his Science class, Jake couldn't help but think of the man who walked by him without notice in the hallway. Looking at the plastic skelteton in the classroom made Jake curious on how big Austin's muscles were, seeing the human body chart just made him daydream about Austin's pale complexion, his perfect structure and his irresistable glow. As the teacher droaned on and on about how you shouldn't do drugs, Jake starts closing his eyes to the class and starts to dream completely. He wakes up in a room with lit candles, Def Leppard playing on the radio and a box of random knick knacks. Jake realizes that the "toys" in the box were not exactly for little kids. He hears a knock at the door, then realizes he's barely wearing any clothing. He opens the door and sees Austin there smiling, not wearing any form of clothing besides a pair of worn out jeans. Austin picks up Jake, kissing his cheeks and carrying him to the bed in the room, as he continues to place kisses on Jake's body, his hand hovers over Jake's chest and stomach....
"Mr. Henry!!!" Jake snapped out of the fantasy and fell out of his chair at the sound of his professor's thundering voice calling at him. "If I catch you sleeping in my class, you're gonna pay for it with detention."
Jake layed his head on the table, embarassed as his classmates pointed and giggled, his friend Danielle just turned her head, confused by his unusual behavior.
Jake and Danielle exit the classroom as soon as the bell rings. "Hey" Danielle said, turning Jake around as he was trying to walk away. "Something on your mind?" Jake never liked to admit his crushes cause he knew the word would get out somehow, even if he did trust Danielle. "Nothing's wrong, I just bored of hearing the teacher's yammering and took a nap." Danielle didn't buy it, she just turned her head again. "Oh is that all? Something tells me there's a boy on your mind." Jake's eyes widened. "Ha! I'm right aren't I?" She exclaimed. Jake shuttered, shivers ran up his spine, he didn't know what to do. "I gotta go, uh, Mr. Sheaden's gonna kill me if I'm late to class again." "Wait-" Jake dashed down the hallway before she could finish her sentence. He felt so vulnerable letting a guy he didn't even know get into his head. As he turned a corner in the hallway, he felt like he hit the wall and was knocked backwards. However, when he looked up, he saw what he hit was not a wall, but something that was obviously built like one. Austin. "Ouch, you okay?" He asked Jake. Jake felt like he was turning red, Austin's voice was just like the voice in his fantasy and he saw kindness in his eyes. Before Austin could help Jake up, another jock walked in front of him. "Yo Austin, is this little twerp bugging you?" The brute clashed his fists together. Anger rose in Austin's eyes, he did not favor violence what so ever, even if he was on a sports team that was considered voilent and hurtful. "Lay off him Kenny. He didn't do anything wrong." Austin said, pushing Kenny away. "You sure? Cause giving this kid a black and blue sounds like fun." "No, there's no need for that." Austin stated in a loud voice, standing in front of Jake. "Come on Austin, loosen up, one hit can't hurt him too bad for life." "I said No." Austin yelled, walking over to Jake as the jocks walked away, disgusted as Austin's nice guy routine. "I'm sorry about that, those guys can be real basterds at times." Jake became stuttered and shy everytime Austin spoke to him but managed to say something at last when Austin looked at him. "It's alright, thank you, you seem alot.....nicer than the rest of the jocks." He laughed and helped Jake off the floor, giving him a pat on the back and a smile. "I'm Austin McElroy, It's nice to meet you." He said, clsoing his eyes and smiling, lending his arm out for a handshake. "I'm Jake Henry, It's nice to meet you too Austin." Taking his hand, shivers running up his spine at the feel of the man's hand. Austin opened his eyes and gave Jake a peculiar look. "Oh yeah, I know where you're from, you live with the Church ministers on the edge of town, I live just a few streets away with my sister." Jake started to get used to the feeling of Austin's hand in his before he took it back, he couldn't help but to smile, hoping Austin didn't know why he was smiling. Before Jake could say anything, the bell rang and Austin dashed off with a waving goodbye and "nice to meet you" smile. Jake was in no rush to go to class, he felt the hand that was in contact with Austin's. He loved the feel of Austin's hand, soft yet firm and at the same time so comforting. As Austin turned a corner and away from Jake's sight once again, the boy couldn't help but smile as much as he could possibly smile, he considered himself lucky, forgetting about the mishap before and the possible rumors to spread. All troubles and burdens were replaced by a well toned, well mannered and irresistable man named Austin.
