Chapter 3

Xander woke up and found that he was naked and sticky; he sniffed the air to make sure Jonas was still there. Truthfully the last night after those first kisses was a blur though, he attempted to stretch but he found himself restrained by Jonas's arms, he looked at Jonas, who was snoring softly. Xander kissed him lightly on the forehead and went back to sleep, snuggling into the other mans arms.

Jonas mumbled and woke up; he was naked in bed and his arms around someone. He saw a mass of dark hair and he remembered what happened, he hoped Xander wouldn't regret what happened Jonas knew he didn't. He attempted to move only to hear murmurs of disappointment.

"Hey," Xander mumbled, "no moving, still tired, sleep," as he attempted to pin Jonas with his body.

Jonas grumbled, "It seems to be 9 in the morning Xander."

Xander opened on eye and looked at his watch, 'Damn!' he thought, 'Jonas was right, it was time to get up,' as he pulled himself from Jonas he admired the other man's body and yawned, he flashed Jonas a grin and kissed him.

Jonas found himself staring at Xander's body, admiring every part of Xander's body, he whispered, "Beautiful."

Xander noticed Jonas staring and smiled, "You aren't so bad yourself," and straddled Jonas's chest smiling and kissed Jonas again.

"Wow," Jonas said, "you are a really handsome man Xander."

Xander sighed as he left Jonas's body and settled next to him, he noticed Jonas looked a bit down and whispered, "Jonas, what's wrong?"

"I don't want you to regret being with me," Jonas whispered.

Xander heard the hyena growl, *Who has made our mate feel bad like this.*

Jonas continued on talking, he said some things that Xander couldn't understand, he whispered, "I want a relationship with you but…"

Xander grinned brightly and whispered and, "I want you too."

Jonas said, "There are things that I wouldn't be able to tell you about and we live so far apart."

Xander said, "So we'll see each other whenever we can, it's possible to make it work and Jonas, there's things I wouldn't be able to tell you either."

Jonas was also worried about the rest of the SG1's opinions; he knew Teal'c would understand but he wasn't sure about Sam or the Colonel and then he wondered; 'What would Xander not be able to tell me?'

"So Xander, you think it will be easy?" Jonas asked with hope in his voice.

"Hey," Xander whispered, "it's never easy but there's phone calls and internet."

Jonas nodded slowly, Xander was different from any other person he met and felt Xander's lips on his, and he looked at Xander and said, "Be prepared for me to call you every day."

"Wouldn't have it any other way," Xander whispered into Jonas's ear.

Cordilia came in and saw them talking and said, "Wow, naked talking. I need a camera."

Jonas blushed furiously and tried to cover himself while Xander smirked, got up and said, "Enjoying the view, Cordy?"

She laughed and said, "You should have seen Larry's face when he heard you two last night."

Larry blushed and nodded and said, "Yeah, Jonas is a screamer," as he tried to get a peek of Xander naked.

Xander grinned at Larry and closed the door and saw Jonas was red as a beet; he crawled on Jonas, giving him a kiss, and whispered, "Let's get dressed."

Jonas nodded towards Xander and watched Xander dress in some of his new clothes, Xander looked at Jonas and said, "Get dressed; I want to get something to eat."

As they left Jonas tried to ignore the stares that Teal'c was giving him, Xander noticed how self conscious Jonas was getting. He moved next to Jonas and began to touch him reasuringly.

Teal 'c looked at Jonas and said, "Jonas Quinn, your mate seems protective, he will be good for you."

As they ate breakfast Jonas asked Xander when they were leaving for home.

Xander said, "Unfortunately I can't hold it off any longer; we'll probably leave by noon."

Jonas looked upset, he wanted to spend as much time as possible, 'What could he call Xander now his boyfriend or what?' he wondered.

Xander looked at the puzzled look on Jonas's face, "So," he asked, "what are you thinking about?"

"I am just wondering what we are now?" Jonas asked.

"Jonas," Xander said, "I think I made it clear that you're my boyfriend now."

Xander smiled as Jonas blushed and Jonas said, "So, how long do we have?"

Cordelia looked at her watch, frowned and said, "Sooner than I thought."

Xander pouted, he had wanted to stay with Jonas a while longer, he looked at Jonas who looked upset too.

Cordilia sighed and said, "It looks like we have to leave soon Xander."

"Well," Xander replied, "better get going Jonas."

Xander walked up to his room, followed by Jonas when he turned around and kissed Jonas with all of his might.

Jonas sighed as the younger man kissed him and felt Xander's hand reach towards his face.

Xander said, "You come and visit whenever you can, okay?"

Jonas nodded sadly, already beginning to miss his friend.

Teal 'c and Jonas watched as Xander and his friend's leave. Teal'c looked at Jonas and said, "Do not worry; I believe you will see him again."

Xander sighed with just a bit of sadness, he missed Jonas already. Cordelia smiled and said, "Don't worry; I gave him your new cell phone number."

"Thanks Cordy," Xander said as they got closer to home, they could feel the ever present evil of the Hellmouth. Xander sighed, he still had Jonas's scent in his nostrils and he intended to keep the scent here.

Jonas , along with Sam and Teal'c, headed back to the base; Sam noticed that Jonas was positively gloomy. Now she had asked Teal'c about it but Teal'c just said, "It was Jonas's thing to tell, not his." Jonas sighed as he replayed the kiss between him and Xander over and over in his mind losing himself in the memories.

Xander walked in the school library that night he was tackled by Willow, who demanded to know where he was? She had been worried about him.

Xander laughed and said, "I was with Cordelia and Larry in LA."

Willow looked a bit confused but it dawned on her that she had forgotten Xander's birthday and she babbled,

"!"

Xander said, "Breathe Wills! It's alright; I had a good time with Larry and Cordy."

Buffy whispered, "I forgot your birthday! Oh god Xander, I'm so sorry."

Angel was staring at Xander and sniffed the air, Angel smelt the pheromones in the air; it was heady and he realized that Xander had a REALLY happy birthday. He nodded to Xander.

A couple of days later Xander was sitting down in the library when he heard his cell ring, he picked it up and heard Jonas's voice, he sighed happily and said, "Jonas, what's up baby?"

Jonas said, "Not much, I just miss you a lot Xan."

The calls continued almost every day; Jonas wanted to know everything that happened in Xander's life and the same went for Xander, he knew Jonas couldn't tell him everything but it was all of the good, Xander thought.

Giles noted that every time Xander's cell phone rang he would drop everything and run somewhere private to talk; it was starting to get annoying. He had to see if Xander was up to something so he followed Xander to where he was talking, he snippets of the conversation, "I love you too Jonas, I wish I was with you too."

'Oh dear!' Giles thought, 'So that's what it was about; Xander has a boyfriend.' Giles felt horrible for thinking the things he did about Xander.

Meanwhile, Teal'c was fending off the questions of rest of SG1; he kept saying it was Jonas Quinn's story to tell not his.

Jack said, "Look, it's just weird; almost every night he goes off and talks for almost two hours and when he comes out of his offices, he's smiling like he's in love."

Teal'c raised an eyebrow and said, "Indeed."

Jack's eyes nearly bugged out and said, "So, he met someone in California? Who's the lucky person?"

Teal'c simply left the table and said, "It is Jonas's story to tell."

Sam and Jack waited to the next day when Jonas went off to make his call, Jack snuck off to listen in on his conversation and he heard snippets of conversation, "Xander, it kills me not being be with you. I might have some leave coming up and I want to spend it with you."

Jack backed off and walked to where Sam was sitting, she saw the look on Jack's face and asked, "Colonel is everything fine?"

"Yes it is." Jack said, "Oh and next time I decide to go snooping please stop me."

Sam looked at him and said, "I told you it was a bad idea."

"Yes you did and I should listen to you more often Carter," Jack said.

Xander was beside himself with happiness; Jonas was coming to visit. He was getting ready for the visit and his parents were actually leaving for a couple of weeks, which just seemed too coincidental, but he found out that Cordelia had used a bit of her father's influence to get them a trip outta town.

Jonas and Teal'c decided to have a little Roadtrip to Sunnydale, it took them a couple of days but they finally reached Sunnydale.

"So, this is Sunnydale?" Jonas said, "It looks nice."

Teal'c looked around and said, "I don't like it here."

Jonas looked puzzled at Teal'c and asked, "Why did you say that?"

"There is a saying I have heard: I have a 'gut feeling' about this town and it is a MOST unpleasant feeling," Teal'c said.

Xander saw them come up and he rushed towards Jonas and kissed him deeply, whispering, "I missed you."

Jonas smiled and said, "Not nearly as much as I missed you," as they walked into the house and Jonas noticed a robe and square hat with a tassel, he asked, "What these are for?"

Xander said, "Oh, my graduation is in a couple of days."

Jonas said, "You're graduating from school?"

"Yeah," Xander said.

"Well," Jonas said, "well then, I want to see you graduate."

Xander muttered under his breath, "Crap!"

Poll question: How will Jonas and Teal'c react to the graduation ceremony and how will they react to the solution of the problem? Or will they create their own solution?
