Hey everyone! I'm back with a new chapter! Great right? Totally. Anyway, have fun reading and I will see you whenever I update next! XD
"I can't believe you agreed to do this." Sumo said as he pushed a rickety old boat into the water.
"I was forced!" Jeff said; throwing the life jacket he had in his hands at Sumo.
"Just get in the boat dude." Sumo said picking up the brunet's life jacket for him after it hit him in the back.
The two were on the water in a few minutes. Sumo was rowing into the middle of the lake. Jeff was driving the tanned boy insane. He kept complaining about the heat and the dirtiness of the water.
"Jeff, I know you never grew out of your 'clean-freak' phase, but please…just pretend you have. Live a little. Swallow some of the lake water. Go crazy." Sumo said stopping the boat.
"I most certainly will not." Jeff crossed his arms. "I don't even know why you wanted to go fishing. We haven't done it since we were kids."
"I like fishing." Sumo said grabbing a fishing rod and the tackle box. He prepared the worm and everything and held the rod to Jeff. "Do you still remember how to cast it?"
Jeff looked at him and sighed. He took the fishing rod. "Yes, I do."
"Good." Sumo started to prepare his own rod. Jeff watched him as he put the worm on the hook. It looked totally gross to the brunet. Then, rather unwillingly, he noticed Sumo's arms. They were a bit larger than his own, as he never wished to play sports. Sumo only dabbled in basket-ball and dodge ball. Sumo got roped into a lot of things because of Clarence. Jeff also couldn't help but notice Sumo's shirt, and how tight it was on his torso. The black mixed with his dark skin tone nicely. He could see every muscle, which was probably why he wore it.
"Are you done staring?" Sumo said. He glanced over at Jeff.
"Uh, what? I wasn't staring! I was just…looking at the clouds." Jeff pointed to the large one that was above Sumo's head.
"Oh, and do the clouds look like me at all?"
"I'll drown you."
"Just admit you were staring and I'll let you do whatever you want to me."
Jeff growled. He cast his line and ignored Sumo. Sumo did the same but was silently snickering at the brunet.
An hour passed and they were still sitting there in silence. Jeff was going over vocabulary words in his head. Sumo was glancing over at the brunet. The tanned boy could sense the boredom in the air. Sumo then put his fishing rod down. He looked at Jeff, who glanced over at him quickly.
"Yes?" Jeff asked looking a bit worried.
"Put down your rod for a sec." Sumo said quickly.
"Why?"
"Sh. It's important."
Jeff did as he was told and put the fishing rod down. He looked up at the tanned boy curiously. "Okay? How is this important?"
Then Sumo pushed Jeff into the lake. A quick shove was all it took since Sumo was strong and Jeff was…well, very thin. Jeff hit the water with a smack. Sumo didn't take long to laugh. He was throwing his head back just as Jeff reached the surface once again. His hair was in his face and he looked fairly angry.
"Sumo, I am going to kill you." The brunet said shivering.
Sumo was still laughing though. He looked at the brunet once and then started laughing again.
"Sumo, stop laughing! I got some of the water in my mouth! Help me get back in the boat!" Jeff said in a nagging tone. He stretched out his pale hand and reached for the edge of the boat.
Sumo grabbed the brunet's hand and pulled. Even though he was the stronger of the two Jeff had managed to pull him off the boat. Sumo should have been expecting this. He angered Jeff and once you do that there is no turning back. He was first hit with the cold as he fell in. The water was about as cold as his freezer at home. He guessed that this is what the water felt like in fall. Sumo poked his head back up to the surface and turned to look for Jeff.
Jeff was submerged up to the bottom of his nose in dirty lake water. He was sending daggers Sumo's way. He looked about ready to pounce.
"Okay, so I know you're mad…but come on, you should have known I was going to do something heinous." Sumo laughed still. The coldness of the water was making his legs numb.
Jeff just glared.
"Come on, I know you wanna laugh Jeff." Sumo got closer.
"Don't touch me, I'm still mad." Jeff said putting up his hands in defense.
Sumo then grabbed for Jeff's waist and began to tickle him beneath his life jacket.
"No stop!" Jeff yelled. "I swear; I'll kill you with my bare hands." Jeff said and then finally Sumo heard it. They were small outbursts of laughter. Jeff's laugh was usually unheard but when it got the spot light, like now, it was the most beautiful thing. Of course, this was only proved by Sumo, considering he was the one that loved Jeff's laugh. Well, maybe the only one.
"Alright, let's get back in the boat." Sumo said. He lifted Jeff into the boat and then himself. He grabbed each fishing rod and started to clean them up.
"Hey, I thought we were going to fish." Jeff said.
"Nah, I have some more interesting things to do."
Jeff almost pouted but he caught himself in time. "Well then what are you going to do?"
"First, we're going to get warmed up with a shower at my place. Then we're going to see what Clarence is doing."
"Is this what you usually do on the weekends?"
"Yes."
"I pictured you a little more active…" Jeff said. Considering his body type regular exercise seemed normal.
"Stop marveling over my hot bod Jeff."
Jeff blushed. "Shut up about that. I was only admiring your shirt's design."
"It's a plain T-shirt Jeff. It doesn't have a design."
Jeff got redder with every second. "Whatever, hurry up I'm cold."
Jeff was standing in the doorway of Sumo's trailer. Sumo was telling his dad that he brought the boat back safe and sound. The tanned boy then grabbed Jeff's soaked blue shirt and drug him to the bathroom. The room was small but clean, which Jeff enjoyed more than Sumo knew. He stared at the tile floor and then at the bathtub, inside a shower head stuck out from the wall. The shower curtains were a lovely floral print.
Jeff stopped looking around to notice Sumo take off his shirt. The tanned boy's back was facing Jeff. Some dirt flew onto the floor. Jeff was appalled and frankly concerned for his own well-being.
"You can grab the first shower. I'll set you up with some clothes. Nothing with a skull right? I can't remember what you like." Sumo started to turn the knobs on the shower.
"Uh…" Jeff tried not to stare but he failed harder than Clarence did during that one math test. He couldn't help but take in the tanned boy's skin tone. His arms were even better when no shirt was covering them. Jeff looked at his shoulder blades.
Sumo turned around. "Jeff?"
He got the full picture. Sumo looked like he could lift up the brunet and carry him off into the abyss. There was a bit of hair growing below Sumo's belly button. It was blond so you could barely see it. But with Jeff's contacts it was easy for him. Jeff felt his face grow a new shade as Sumo crossed his arms, waiting.
"You definitely weren't staring at me this time." Sumo stated as he looked at the reddening brunet.
"N-no I wasn't." Jeff said and moved to push Sumo out the door. "Any T-shirt is fine, please go now."
Jeff walked out of the bathroom dressed in a black T-shirt with a blue skull on it and baggy jeans. No matter what he did, Sumo's clothes were still a bit big on him. It was a good thing Jeff was wearing his black sandals. If he wore his sneakers they would have been a nightmare to clean and dry. Jeff looked to Sumo who was prepping his own shower. He was now discarding his wet jeans. The denim clung to his skin even more because it was damp.
"Grab the door for me?" Sumo called as Jeff stared at the floor out of shock. The brunet grabbed the doorknob and then closed the door. He was on the opposite side of Sumo now. He could hear the stream of water hitting the tub.
Jeff sat at the wall beside the bathroom door. His heart was beating fast. He could feel his hands get clammy. He couldn't afford to be thinking about Sumo like he was. Jeff couldn't think about his friend like that. That would just mess with his plans for his future. He liked how things were going; he didn't have room to factor in anyone else into his life. Jeff felt at the carpet beneath his hands.
Jeff had known about Sumo's crush on him for a while now. When the two were kids Jeff always thought that Sumo was oddly buddy-buddy with him even though he was only friends with him because of Clarence. During middle school, when Sumo started to be a bit more open about his feelings Jeff definitely got the feeling that Sumo wasn't just joking around. Jeff remembered the kiss he received from the tanned boy about a week ago.
Jeff touched his lips. He could feel Sumo's lips on his own once again. Jeff could feel everything Sumo was feeling at that moment. When he kissed him he felt nothing but warmth and want; a desire that needed to be satisfied. Now that he thought about it, Jeff was glad that Sumo had kissed him. A kiss was easier to deal with than something a bit more adventurous. Jeff shook his head. He was still not going to dabble in Sumo no matter how much he wants to. It would only end badly. He just had to keep thinking that. It would only end badly.
Then the door opened and a fully clothed Sumo emerged. His hair was still damp, just like Jeff's. The blond looked down and saw Jeff sitting on the floor. He stretched out his hand and Jeff took it. It would only end badly.
"Alright, let's get out of here."
Welp there it is. Hope you liked it! Review? Or nah?
