The sun floods your room as you drown Quinn Allman & Jeph Howard
The sun burned down on the pale, tattooed man's skin. All the band had come home to see family and friends then, because they had a few days off and the weather was scorching hot, headed down to the nearest outdoor pool. "Hey Jepha! You coming in for a bit?" Bert asked, splashing about wildly. "Nah," Jeph replied, "I'm gonna go get an ice-tea!" he got up off the lounger and headed toward the nearest drinks stand.
"Aaww, come on! We could have loads of fun!" Jeph heard a voice shout behind him, the words causing his stomach to flip. Jeph had always known about his feelings for this man, ever since his teens. But now, after all the girlfriends and arguments, he knew they weren't close enough for Quinn to feel the same way as him. Although, one night last week had changed these thoughts slightly as his fiancé dumped him after a rather drunken, yet prolonged, 'spin-the-bottle' kiss with him on the party bus.
Jeph turned around to see Quinn's usual cheeky grin and his toned, slim body in a pair of blue and red swim shorts. The sun was behind him, highlighting his freshly dyed blonde hair, droplets of water jewelling his porcelain skin; making him look like some half-naked angel. Jeph's heart started to flutter at the sight, until he was snapped back into reality by Quinn snapping his fingers in front of Jeph's face. "Err…Jepha? Is my wonderful body entrancing you?!" Quinn laughed as he stepped nearer an embarrassed Jeph. "Sorry, the sun…it was in my eyes" Jeph lied and turned his back on Quinn, envying his always cheerful, jokey personality.
"Well I'm off to get an ice-tea if you want one." Jeph mumbled, walking quickly off.
"No I'm ok thanks, I'm gonna get out now anyway…and get changed…I'll see you around?" Quinn replied, slightly disappointed. "Yeah."
"Oh my god, how could I have just blown him off like that?!" Jeph shouted in his head, he knew he had never been able to deal with flirty comments from Quinn. Not that they weren't close, no, the complete opposite you could say! They had had many moments where they made a rather convincing couple. And that is what confused Jeph the most.
He walked silently back over the terra-cotta tiles, past the row of shower cubicles at one side of the pool. Suddenly, a hand shot and grabbed Jeph's arm, causing his cup of drink to drop. "Hey!" Jeph managed to shout out in protest, before he was dragged into the captor's cubicle and a hand was clamped over his mouth.
Jeph found himself staring into a pair of sparkly, hazel eyes; slightly covered by wet, peroxide hair. He sighed, then asked Quinn "What the hell's going on, I thought I was gonna be raped or something!" Jeph whispered to a smirking Quinn. "No no," Quinn replied grinning, "I won't go that far…"
Quinn pushed his lips onto Jeph's. Jeph's eyes widened in shock, but immediately after he melted into the kiss. Wrapping their arms around each others waists, Jeph deepened the kiss and pinned Quinn against the wall; something he had wanted to do for a very long time!! Quinn managed to find the shower tap on the wall and turned it, causing cool liquid to spill over them both, then ran his free hand through Jeph's jet black hair; a small moan escaping Jeph's lips. They parted and grinned goofily at each other, then the slid down the tiled wall; their arms still wrapped securely around both of them and the water still running over their soaked bodies.
Quinn snuggled close to Jeph, stroking his soft skin from head to toe, Jeph gazing at Quinn's gorgeous eyes. They soon fell into a comfortable silence before Jeph started to get up. "Wait, don't you want to gaze into my eyes a little longer?" Quinn asked, pulling him back down into his lap "Of coarse I do" Jeph replied, smiling at Quinn's cheeky, puppy-dog face, "I could catch fire in your eyes!"
