Summary: Charlie and Adam. Kori and Jesse. Two perfect couples. Only one couple has two guys. When the Ducks don't exactly like the idea of homosexuality, things get a little out of hand…*sequel to Realization* SLASH!

Author's Note: If you haven't read Realization, I guess you could read this. But you should still take a look at it. By the way for all my readers who have yet to read the last chapter of Realization…it's up.

This is slash so if you don't like it…DON'T READ IT!     

Disclaimer: I only own Kori, Shane, Jordan, Bryan, Jesse, and Yolanda.

LOOK WHO'S BACK WITH A SEQUEL!!! ME!!!!!! The first chapter's kind of dry, but it'll get better. I promise.

Adam

***

            "Banksie, your boyfriend's here," Portman poked me in the ribs. Even though I was sleepy beyond belief, I had to smile at his choice of words. Boyfriend. I really liked the sound of that. But the sleepiness in me refused to let me get out of bed. Getting no response from me, Portman just let him in.

            "He won't get up," Portman stated matter-of-factly, "He was up late last night doing a report. Go figure."

            I heard Charlie laugh, "On a Friday night? He's crazy."

            "He's your boyfriend. You deal with him." And Portman left. It was quiet for a few minutes before I felt the edge of my bed sag with the weight of another person. Charlie grabbed my ankle and shook it lightly.

            "Come on, Adam. Get up!"

            I still didn't move, "Tired."

            "Well nobody forced you to finish that report last night, did they?"

            "Well…no," I sighed and finally moved to prop myself up on my elbow, rubbing the sleep out of my eyes with my other hand, "What?"

            Charlie stood up mocking a wounded expression, "Oh Adam, I'm hurt! Do I really need a reason to come over here?"

            I rolled my eyes at him and threw a pillow at him head. Apparently, my aim at ten in the morning is worse than it is on the ice.

           "I have no clue how you're the best player on the team," Charlie gasped between laughs, "And still can't hit someone in the head with a pillow." I looked to see that the pillow had landed about three feet away from where Charlie was. I had to crack a smile. With much effort, I heaved myself out of bed and headed towards the bathroom. I left the door open while I brushed my teeth so I could talk to Charlie.

            "Kori invited us back to her old town for winter break," Charlie said casually, leaning against the doorframe of the bathroom. I spit out some tooth-pasted.

            "Really?"

            "Yeah. She said her dad probably has extra rooms in the house or something like that. She invited the whole team."

            I almost choked on my toothbrush, "Everyone?"   

            "Yeah I thought she was insane too. I mean, no house could fit thirteen lunatics in it. Well, except for yours."

            "My house couldn't handle the raving lunacy of Averman and Russ together."

            Charlie laughed.

            "What? It couldn't!" I rinsed my mouth out and turned the sink off.

            "You're probably right. So? Do you want to go or no?"

            "Well of course I want to go. Do you want to go?"

            "Yeah. Portman's probably going and Guy too. But I'm not too sure about the others. The out-of-state Ducks might want to go home. I don't know. Kori said she'll talk to everyone about it."

            "Okay." I replied easily and left the bathroom, kissing Charlie lightly on the cheek on my way out.

            "Hey is that all I get? On the cheek? That's so cheap!" he protested, following me out.

            "Excuse me, I am not cheap." But I wore a smile on my face anyway.

            "Prove it."

            "I have nothing to prove to you Charlie Conway."

            "Fine…" he gave me that face that always made me want to grab him and kiss him, but I didn't. Not that time anyway. We headed down to breakfast together after I got dressed. As soon as we left the dormitories, we unlinked our hands. It was dangerous to be two guys holding hands on Eden Hall campus. Especially when there were a certain group of people that were entirely homophobic. Most of them were openly homophobic. Charlie and I figured that we'd been through enough shit already and we could save the absolute living hell part of the deal for later on. It had been bad enough admitting to each other our true feelings. We didn't know what to expect from the other guy, but it was all worth it in the end. At least I think it was.

            "Hey guys," Kori Smith greeted us as we sat at our usual table. I nodded at her and grabbed the apple sitting on her tray.

            "Your very welcome Adam, it's not like I was going to eat that anyway," Kori commented sarcastically. I just grinned at her.

            "So when are you going to see Jesse again?" Charlie asked, shifting the subject to Kori's boyfriend. They had gotten together two weeks before and a day prior to when Charlie and I got together.

            "I don't know, probably winter break," Kori sighed, "I miss him though."

            "Don't you spend like…every night on the phone with him?" I asked her pointedly. Kori and I hadn't talked as much as we used to mainly because she was maintaining a long distance relationship and I was maintaining a private gay relationship.

            "Don't you see Charlie everyday?" she retorted.

            "We all see Charlie everyday," Averman cut in, slightly confused.

            "Yeah, and?" Kori asked, subtlety covering up for the real topic of conversation. Luckily, Averman hadn't heard any of it.

            "I'm not even going to ask."

            "Don't," I told him smiling widely. Averman rolled his eyes and went off to get his food. The three of us exchanged glances.

            "That was a close one," Charlie said quietly, barely above a whisper.

            "Yeah." Keeping our relationship a secret from our friends was not going to be easy. A part of me just wanted to tell them and get it over with, but Charlie didn't want that. Not yet anyway. He said that ignorance was bliss. Maybe it was. Maybe it wasn't.

Thanks to all those who reviewed Realization! These are the shoutouts for the last chapter:

LB: haha, thanks. I never thought of myself as the comical type. And I'm pretty sure you're an awesome writer; don't put yourself down like that!!

Sphnix the Minx: Awwww….thanks! I'm happy for Adam too. But since this is the sequel (and rumor has it that sequels are not good…eek!) more problems will definitely arise. *cough coming out cough*

Eternity: Thanks for the idea, I'm probably going to use it because it's the most realistic thing that would happen in real life. I'll definitely do the reaction of the other person that you mentioned though I'm not saying out loud here because it's between you and me. For now anyway. =D

DuckHockey00214496: hehehehehehe!! Your review cracked me up! Here's the sequel!

Chelsea: AHHH!!! I WROTE A SEQUEL!!!! Please keep those Newsies in your closet!! =D Chuck…hmm not a bad idea. I'll find a way to incorporate that in somehow.

Vinnies-Angel: Yes! You must!!! Awww, thanks!! Look, I'm writing more!!! =D

Skarlett: Awww thanks! *sniff* That was such a sweet review…I'm touched. No seriously, I really am. I hope the sequel is just as appreciated.

And thanks to everyone else to read Realization and who's reading this now!

PLEASE REVIEW!
