And here's where we see Ryan and Kendall just hanging out at their house.


Chapter 3: Comfort in a Boyfriend

At Kendall's house

Kendall was just going through a couple of DVD's and Who-ray's to find a movie they can watch together and as he was plwoing through them, Ryan was eating a couple of seedless grapes in a bowl and he asked, "Do you have any good ones?"

"Well, I got tons of them, you know. It's kinda hard to pick one." Kendall said, still searching.

Soon enough, he eventually found one movie and it's considered one of the classic movies of their generation about a couple of college students in totally different cliques that spend one weekend in a forest that relates to Kendall mostly and as he popped it in the DVD player, he checks to see how the popcorn is looking and brings the entire bowl over to the living room and sat next to him with his arms around Ryan and he asked, "Have you seen this one before?"

"No, I haven't." Ryan replied, eating some popcorn.

"Well...you're not gonna say that anymore by the time you see it." Kendall added, with a smile.

Both of them spent the next 125 minutes watching the entire movie, eating popcorn, drinking soda, cuddling up close to each other and crying throughout the scenes and Ryan looks at this bisexual character in the movie and that's the one guy he related to the most because he knows what it feels like to be in a struggle to come to terms with his orientation and how to deal with it...something that Ryan always tend to never talk about or leaves it alone.

After the movie, Kendall looks at Ryan and he said to him, "So...how's it going within the pack?"

Ryan sighed heavily at this and he tussled his hair a little and replied, "It feels like we're falling apart, even when we are together in this house. We've got so much financial problems and work schedules around us, it's hard to even come together and I'm starting to question about why the pack is formed in the first place. Me and Casper feel the same way, but never really talked about it much because Casper feels the most affected by all of this."

Kendall couldn't imagine what it could be like to feel this way if he was in Ryan's position and he asked, "Maybe you should tell them how you're feeling about this?"

"I would...but I don't think that's a possibility. There's no one really there to talk to because they're so busy with their own stuff. Yet...that's the least of my problems. I haven't really told them I'm bi." Ryan added, putting a strained voice on the last part.

"They have to know sometime. If you can't tell them, then they'll never know. I've told you this at least 200 times since we started dating." Kendall added.

"I know. And I should...but the last thing I wanna do is be judged and have everyone focus on my orientation rather than my accomplishments. Sometimes, the interest of someone's personal life is more interesting than their professional life. I could never live it down and have someone fuck up my reputation." Ryan stated.

Kendall could tell that Ryan fears being judged by not only his pack members, but everyone he meets and he knows what that feeling feels like and he turns to Ryan and said, "Ry, I know what you're going through...but you know you can't let someone change you for who you are. You have to remain who you are to make yourself happy. And if they don't like it, that's their problem."

What Kendall said made a lot of sense and he knows that he went through it as well and how he came out stronger in the end and Ryan looks at him and strokes his cheek gently and chin, feeling a little bit of facial hair there and he said, "You always know what to say to make me feel better."

"I see a lot of myself in you, Ry. I know that you'll be stronger than this, but you gotta have strength and have the confidence to just get through it." Kendall answered.

Ryan smiled at him and he kissed him on the lips gently and Kendall kissed him back with a huge load of passion and wrapped their arms around each other and after that, Kendall placed his finger on Ryan's lips and he said, "Let's take this to my room. I really feel like fucking right now."

2 hours later

Ryan heads out of Kendall's house and he couldn't be any more happier to be around his boyfriend and he said, "Thanks for letting me hang here."

"Anytime, Ry. I'll see you at campus tomorrow." Kendall said, with a smile.

"I'll be there. You think you can meet me here, so we can walk to the campus?" Ryan asked.

Kendall nods his head at that and he knows he would love to go to the campus with Ryan and said, "No problem. Besides, I'm cool with hanging with nerds...especially one I'm lucky to be in love with."

Ryan giggled in response and he asked, "Are we still on for skateboarding?"

"You know it, Ry."

Both of them fist-bumped each other while hugging each other and they kissed each other in the lips again before Ryan leaves the house and walked his way back home to the pack's and he placed his hoodie back on when he walked out, but he knows for a fact that the struggles for the pack are just beginning.


BTW, for those that want to know what happened in Kendall's room for those 2 hours, you'll have to find out for yourselves. There's a possible chance that it'll be in a deleted scenes fic for this one. (chuckles) I'll do a deleted scenes fic for this story after I'm done with the original. But stay tuned for more!
