| Part 3 - Different, But Good |
| Justin followed Lance slowly out of Chris� room. Neither one knew where to go from there. They hadn�t really made it clear that they wanted each other, they�d just said they�d rather kiss one another than another guy in the group. Lance was the first to speak, �you want to come to my room to talk?� �Sure,� Justin answered, fidgeting nervously. �Ok,� Lance said, leading the way to his room. He opened the door quickly, and held it open for Justin. Then he asked, �do you want something to drink?� �You got any Coke?� Justin said, moving to the couch and waiting for Lance to come back with his drink. �Yeah, hold on a sec,� Lance said from the kitchen. Justin sat down, wondering curiously what would happen after they talked. �Here you go,� Lance said, handing Justin his Coke and sipping his Sprite. �Thanks,� Justin replied, opening it and taking a drink. �So�� Lance started. �Yeah�� Justin responded, not knowing what to say. �Um, we�ve established that we want to kiss each other more than the other guys. But do you actually want to kiss me?� Lance asked, starting the conversation. �Yeah, I do. This past week I�ve been feeling a little different towards you,� Justin admitted, blushing. �What about you? Do you actually want to kiss me?� �Yes, but I�ve been feeling this way a little longer,� Lance told Justin. �How long?� Justin asked curiously. �A few months,� Lance answered, refusing to look into Justin�s eyes. �Wow, why didn�t you tell me?� Justin asked. �Because I was scared of how you�d react. My parents didn�t react well to my being gay, so I was afraid to tell you guys,� Lance admitted. �Oh, I�m so sorry you felt that way. You know I � we � would always accept you Lance,� Justin told him. �Yeah, but that doesn�t make me less of a chicken,� Lance replied. �What matters is that I know now, and that just makes me feel stronger about you, knowing that you were feeling the same way about me,� Justin said, looking directly at Lance now. He wasn�t too worried anymore, now that he knew Lance felt something towards him. He wanted to find out more. �How long have you known you are gay?� Justin asked. �Well, just a few months. I realized it when I started having feelings for you. �Oh,� was Justin�s only reply. �Are you gay?� Lance asked softly. �I�m not sure yet. I might be bi. I�m certainly not straight because of the feelings I�ve been having, that�s all that I know,� Justin answered, smiling. �Ok,� Lance replied, �so we�re both attracted to each other.� �Yeah,� Justin responded, and then there was silence. He broke the silence a few minutes later by saying, �have you ever� well, been with a guy before?� �Um, no I haven�t *been* with a guy. But I�ve kissed a guy before. What about you?� Lance asked. �I haven�t done anything with a guy before. Is it different kissing a guy?� Justin asked, his curiosity showing. �I�ll let you determine that,� Lance answered, and after seeing the confused look on Justin�s face, he leaned in to give Justin a short, sweet kiss. When Justin recovered from the shock of what Lance had just done, he smiled and said, �yeah, it is different, but a good kind of different. Maybe we should try again, just to make sure.� His eyes were sparkling. He leaned forward, initiating the kiss this time, and covered Lance�s lips with his. �Mmm,� Lance said after Justin pulled away. �Yeah, it�s definitely a good different,� Justin told Lance, laughing. Lance laughed too, thinking about how cute Justin looked right then. |
