Damn. He was going to be late, and it was only the fifth day of school. Leo walked swiftly through the high school hallway, skirting around the massive crowds of people who decided to stand in the middle of the hallway for no real reason. Seriously, why did people do that?
Suddenly, he heard a low male voice singing behind him. It was unexpected, and Leo may have jumped just a bit. He scowled as he noticed the song. Whoever it was was singing "Hey, Good Lookin'." How terribly lame.
Say hey, good lookin' - what ya got cookin'?
How's about cooking somethin' up with me?
Hey, sweet baby - don't you think maybe
We can find us a brand new recipe?
Leo paused and turned in the hallway, expecting to see yet another hetero boy singing to a blushing, only somewhat pretty girl in a lame attempt to woo her. What he didn't expect, however, was Niles. Standing right behind him. And singing.
Having known Niles since elementary school, Leo wondered how he hadn't recognized the voice, then lost the thought as Niles smirked and grabbed Leo's hand, going down on one knee and pressing a kiss to the back of it before continuing.
I got a hot rod Ford, and a two dollar bill
And I know a spot right over the hill
There's soda pop and the dancing's free
So if you wanna have fun, come along with me
Leo knew his face had turned red by now, and tried not to stare at the crowd that had gathered around them. Did Niles seriously have to be this dramatic?
Say hey, good lookin' - what ya got cookin'?
How's about cooking somethin' up with me?
I'm free and ready, so we can go steady.
How's about saving all your time for me?
No more lookin' - I know I been cookin'
Hows about keepin' steady company?
Oh, god. Niles winked at him as he sang the innuendo, and Leo's face reddened even more.
I'm gonna throw my date book over the fence
And buy me one for five or ten cents
I'll keep it till it's covered with age
Cause I'm writin' your name down on every page
Say hey, good lookin' - what ya got cookin'?
How's about cooking somethin' up with me?
Leo let out a sigh of relief as the song ended, but Niles wasn't done. Leo helped Niles to his feet (his hand was still in Niles' grasp), and as soon as Niles was steady, Leo felt a hand on his waist pulling him closer as his boyfriend leaned down and kissed him. In school. In front of everybody. Leo felt mortified.
The response, however, was ecstatic. There were wolf whistles, which Leo rolled his eyes at, and some people clapped. Leo felt Niles smile against his lips.
Niles pulled away, and Leo rested his head on Niles' shoulder in embarrassment. "Oh my god, Niles, did you really have to do that in front of everybody?" Niles chuckled and took his hand off of Leo's waist, touching his cheek briefly before letting his hand drop.
"You deserve it. You're beautiful." Leo blushed and gaped at Niles, who smiled at him. "Now go to class. You'll be late if you don't go now." Niles sent him a wink before turning and walking away, with Leo still standing there, watching him leave.
High school was going to be interesting.
