Chapter 1~ Time To Party
Dedicated to my best friend Lalenya
Alfred. was a Popular Kid at Grey's Academy, his tousled blonde hair, tanned skin and bright blue eyes made him popular with the girls, and his strong hold making him a great competitor for the soccer team, and any other sports team, making the guys look up to him as a kind of role model.
Being labeled as a casual school jock didn't phase Alfred one bit, in fact, he kind of liked it.
Now most jocks are, like we all know, complete jerks... And Alfred, wasn't a complete jerk, just... a bit big headed and, maybe a tad self centered, but he wasn't a bully, and he never meant what he said to... intentionally hurt anyone.
He liked to think of himself as a hero, the person to sort any situation and to leave peace and harmony where ever he went... But things don't always work out the way we plan, huh?
Alfred was more of a clumsy boy, who left more of a path of destruction behind him, and carried on, completely oblivious to his doings, but that didn't matter to Alfred... because he was a hero. Right?
Anyway, like any normal high school jock, Alfred liked to throw parties, and to him, it didn't matter WHO turned up, just as long as his house was so full of moving bodies by 11 o'clock, that no one could even see the carpet, let alone their own toes... because that was when you know your party had hit success.
One particular night he spotted a pale figure through the already growing crowd of people. He managed to wriggle his way over to a rather burly gentle man who seemed to be maybe, two or three years older than him... and about one or two feet taller than him... as he found out as the man stood up politely when Alfred approached him.
"Dude! Why are you sitting all alone?" he asked, having to reach up to the males ear so he would be able to hear Alfred.
Instead of waiting for an answer however, Alfred had other plans. He looked around and spotted a bunch of fellow teenagers playing spin the bottle on the round dinning table.
Alfred tugged at the long scarf around the tall guys neck lightly and motioned for him to follow, before heading straight to the table.
Alfred pulled up two chairs and watched as the other waited for him to be seated in one chair, before taking the other.
It was starting to get crowded in the house rather quickly and he wondered how it was anyone could stand being wrapped up in a large coat and scarf.
He turned to the man and shook his head, tugging the scarf off in frustration at the stupid man, before looking up to ask his name.
Alfred was just about to ask when he got a sudden surprise to see the eyes of the male was purple, a rather light violet type of purple.
"Uhh... So, umm, what's your name dude? And hey take that coat off before you die of... what ever the opposite of pneumonia is!" He ordered, watching, as obediently, the other did as he said, but the male was staring at Alfred rather intensely.
Alfred found he didn't mind so much, but when he went to take the coat from the male and found the tightness of the black t-shirt he was wearing made his rather broad shoulder and the contours of his chest clearly visible, Alfred wished the man could look away so he could freely study the amazing body in awe for just a little longer.
That wasn't going to happen though, and as Alfred looked up at those, just as breath taking, purple eyes once more, a sentence tumbled from the lips of the other male. "My name is Ivan, Ivan Braginski."
Living in Russia for the first five years of his life and moving to America shortly before his sixth birthday, Ivan Braginski learned not everyone is excepted for who they are.
He always loved his pale frosty skin, and his equally pale and frosty blonde hair, his culture and family, he also loved and accepted his personality and sexuality.
Sure Ivan may seem big and gruff on the out side, but on the inside, he didn't care that he was really a big softy and push over, running around after his sisters, and at school doing favours for the cute boys if possible.
Which was all fine, when he was still young, but as Young Ivan grew older and started high school things were a little different, and he had to adapt fast, to protect himself... Not that anyone would even think of going near someone as tall or as strongly built as Ivan anyway, but he didn't know that.
Ivan had been asked out many times before... By girls... and naturally he rejected each and every one of them, gently, of course.
Ivan was saving himself, for a special someone, a guy for a start, a certain guy, a guy with blonde hair, and blue eyes and tanned skin, and a rather slim but well built figure.
Ivan knew he had no chance with this particular girl crazed jock, but that didn't stop him from admiring Alfred from a distance...
Ivan didn't like parties... Normally... But he found himself surprisingly drawn to any that were thrown at a certain Mr. jones' house.
Ivan had been to several of these parties, and like every other time he had come, he sat on a seat by a dead fire place, watching as Alfred invited in each guest as they arrived.
Ivan had learnt a lot about the young male in these parties. Asking people directly was out of the question, he wanted to keep a low profile when it came to his sexuality, but he often heard other people's conversations about Alfred. He also acknowledged the different things Alfred did both in school and at parties.
Ivan was watching Alfred quietly from his usual spot, and he knew it was Alfred and not his extremely identical twin brother Matthew, for one, he was very much more noticed by people, unlike poor Matthew who was normally walked into or pushed over or into a wall, and two, by the way he practically bounced off the walls with excitement each time someone new arrived at the door. He would bound towards it and fling it open, his eyes alight much like a childs.
This night however, Ivan was watching Alfred so intensely he noticed he was staring. As he unfocused his vision a little and paid attention more to what Alfred was doing, instead of Alfred himself, he was soon aware that those blue eyes were looking straight at him, and on top of that Alfred himself was moving right towards him. In a sudden flurry Ivan shot to his feet and looked down at the other male.
Ivan was unaware of why Alfred was over here, in front of him, looking at him, but as he felt the warmth of the American's breath on his ear he blushed lightly, glad that the boy's attention was drawn away at the next moment.
Ivan quickly composed himself and looked when his scarf was tugged at, just in time to see a motioning hand disappear off to a table.
Ivan followed after Alfred quickly and waited for him to pick his seat before taking the other.
He was just looking around at everyone to see if he recognised any of them, or to see if he was being stared at, but his attention was pulled away suddenly, along with his scarf. "He-" he began to protest, before realising the hands which had removed the scarf, and he stared, dumbfounded at the American.
Purple clicked with blue for a short moment before a bunch of orders and questions were half playfully thrown at him.
He quickly unbuttoned his coat, trying hard not to notice that Alfred was staring at his eyes, and slowly slipped the coat off his shoulders, folding it neatly over his arm.
He looked back at Alfred, and when their eyes clicked again, blue averted away quickly instead.
Ivan felt a sad pang hit his gut, and watched one hand reach out to take his coat from him and then stop, hovering over the arm where the coat lay.
Ivan was wondering what the matter was, and when he looked up to check Alfred's face for any signs, the pang vanished.
Instead a huge puff of embarrassment lifted inside him to see the fast moving blue eyes skim over his body quickly... Was Alfred. ... checking him out?
Ivan felt his cheeks begin to warm up again, but as Alfred's eyes reached his once more he remembered the girl crazed jock and told himself he was being stupid, just hopeful thinking, that was all.
The blush faded as quick as it rose and he leant forwards a little so Alfred could hear his answer to the question he was asked. "My name is Ivan, Ivan Braginski."
That is the first Chapter :) sorry for anyone who read this in the first few hours as i was still trying to work out how to use the site as i am new so i apologize for that.
I have the next two chapters done already, but I want to know how everyone else feels so far about the first chapter before uploading the next.
