This takes place befor Rods confession

-
Rod walked in the door, He was tierd from work and just wantedto sit down and read. He walked into the living room,
Nicky was asleep in a chair while a loud infomercial about Ladies razors blared in the background. Rod sighed and started looking for the remote.
He loved Nicky, he could never tell him though. It hurt every single day not telling him but he was sure that Nicky would never speak to him again if he did. Rod gave up the search for the remote and just switched off the TV. The sudden silence woak Nicky up.
"I didn't mean to wake you." said Rod apoligeticly. Nicky rubbed his eyes and fished for the remote. "It's ok." mummbled Nicky "How was work?" "Ok. Same as always." replied Rod. Nicky had the TV blaring again. "I'm tierd. I'm going to go to bed." It was hard staying up with Nicky, everytime he smiled it made Rods heart race. One day he was just going to break down and kiss Nicky, that would be a disaster.
"It's still early." protested Nicky. He wanted to spend time with Rod, it hurt him that Rod never seemed to want to spend time with him.
"Come, sit, tell me about your day." Nicky switched off the TV.
"Not tonight Nicky, I'm tierd." said Rod "Please? You never spend time with me anymore." pleaded Nicky "Good night Nicky." sighed Rod. Nicky got up and stood in front of Rod.
"What's wrong?" asked Nicky softly. Rod didn't say anything, he couldn't say anything. Having Nicky so close had him blushing and his heart racing.
"Please tell me what I can do to help." said nicky. He was genuinly worried about his friend. Rod leaned forward and kissed Nicky. Nickys eyes widend and he was too shocked to move. Rod moved back.
"I'm sorry he mumbled befor running out the door, crying.
"Wait!" called nicky. His made was racing. Rod loves me! oh Rod. Thought Nicky, brushing his fingers over his lips. Nicky ran out the door slamming it behind him hurriedly. He called Rods name loudly and franticly. Rod was crying in an ally. Now Nicky hates me! He thought. He'll never speak to me again. Rod looked up when he heard Nicky calling his name. Nicky ducked into the same ally Rod was in.
"Rod!" exclaimed Nicky "Go away." mutterd Rod.
"Rod please look at me." begged Nicky placing his hand on Rods shoulder. Rod turned at the touch. Nicky kissed Rod gently.
"I love you. Please don't ever leave me like that again." said Nicky leaning in to kiss him again. Rod leaned into the kiss.
"I don't understand. Your not gay, I've seen you out with girls before." said Rod linking his fingers with Nickys "No I'm not gay, not really anyway. Your the only guy I've ever been attracted to, ever. But I've liked you for a very long time." explained Nicky. He licked away what was left of Rod's tears. "I've wanted this for a long time." Rod moaned slightly at the light touches. "Nicky I've waited so long for this. I....I wish I would have kissed you sooner." admitted Rod.
"I wanted to tell you. You denied being gay so forcefully though, I didn't think you wanted to be with me. It was better having you friendship over nothing." said Nicky. He wrapped his arms around Rods waist and pulled him closer. Rod kissed Nicky. Nicky pushed his toung against Rods lips and Rod opend his mouth just wide enough to let Nicky in. Rod moaned against Nickys lips when he felt Nickys toung against his. Nicky pulled back to breath.
"I love you." said Rod "I love you too." replied Nicky. "Can we go home? I'm soaked." Rod laughed and they walked home together, hand in hand.
