Jeff was lying in his bed trying desperately to get his mind to shut up and let him sleep but so far he wasn't having very much luck. He sighed and rolled onto his side. Stupid Nick and his stupid handsome face and his stupid mouth and his stupid stupid voice. Nick had left his house just before 7, Jeff figured that Nick didn't do the whole meet the parents thing even though they were just…friends? Acquaintances? Friends with benefits? Whatever they were it wasn't enough to warrant a meeting of Jeff's parents. It surprised Jeff but they finally were able to decide on a song, it took them another 45 minutes of flipping through Jeff's iPod but they had decided on one. The rest of the time that Nick was at Jeff's he didn't make any more passes at Jeff other than the usual innuendos and crude comments that he made. What was weirder than the fact that Nick didn't try to kiss him or anything again was that he was disappointed that Nick didn't try to. It was ridiculous, why would he be upset that Nick did what he asked, actually did Jeff a kindness by laying off the come ons? Maybe because now he knew that Nick was only interested in Jeff if sex was a possibility, but he couldn't just have casual sex with Nick. He was serious when he said that he wanted to do physical stuff with a boy who loved him and who he loved. He was trying to subtly tell Nick that if they were together that he would do those things with him; he wanted Nick to ask him to be his boyfriend. It was too late to deny it now, he definitely liked Nick. He liked his crudeness because he knew when directed at him it was Nick's way of complimenting Jeff, his way of letting Jeff know that he was desirable. He liked how he got protective of Jeff even though he tried to cover it up by saying he did it to get in Jeff's pants. He liked Nick's leather jacket, God he just liked Nick. He didn't care that he had a reputation already at McKinley or that everyone would disapprove of them because of how Nick rubs people the wrong way, he just wanted Nick. He wanted him bad, and that terrified Jeff. He had never felt quite so strongly about another boy. He's had crushes before but he never thought about what he would like them to do to him or how he wants to see them naked..on top of him…holding him down. Jeff shook his head and buried his face in his pillow and winced when the fabric rubbed against the hickey on his neck. Jeff rolled onto his back and reached up and touched the mark that Nick had left on his neck. Curious he pushed on it slightly making him hiss through his teeth. He liked the dull throb that followed, and he liked that Nick had given him a mark. He liked that Nick's mouth had been on his neck and sucked his pale flesh into his mouth. He just liked Nick, but he probably scared him off. Why did he have to say that he wanted to have a boyfriend? Sure it was true but now he probably freaked him out and whatever they had was probably gone. Why would Nick want to be with Jeff anyway? Jeff was the biggest of geeks and he dressed like it too and Nick was handsome and dreamy and sexy and totally out of Jeff's league. Jeff sighed, all he had to do was sing the duet with Nick, they probably wouldn't win so he didn't have to worry about having to sing again with him, and Nick would probably forget about him and find a cute guy that was more in his league and Jeff could continue his as he had been. Jeff rolled onto his stomach and closed his eyes counting every time his neck throbbed until he fell into a dreamless sleep.

O.O.O

Jeff woke up to his alarm ringing loudly beside him. He reached over without opening his eyes and slammed his hand down on the snooze button. He really did not want to go to school today, going to school meant seeing Nick and seeing Nick meant that he would have to face the reality that he couldn't have him. It was his fault that he didn't have him but he just couldn't do casual sex or anything like that, it just couldn't be done. He alarm went off again, Jeff groaned and sat up and turned off the alarm. He stood and walked into his bathroom. He showered quickly and picked out a black short sleeved button up and a red tie and a pair of dark wash skinny jeans. He looked in the mirror and noticed that the hickey on his neck was completely visible sitting just above his collar. He groaned realizing that he had to go to class with a giant lovebite on his neck and he would have to answer any questions that the glee club would probably ask him. He sighed and then quickly styled his hair before walking back into his room and grabbing his glasses off his nightstand and placing them on his face. On his way down the stairs his phone chimed in his bag. He fished it out and read his just received text message.

Jeff, I'm on my way to your house. BE READY. –Sam

I am ready. –Jeff

Jeff put his phone back in his bag and walked into the kitchen, his mother was standing at the stove flipping eggs.

"Hi mom." She turned and smiled at him.

"Good morning hun, do you want some eggs and toast?"

"I don't have any time, Sam's on his way." She turned to face him fully and placed her hands on her hips.

"Jeffrey Sterling you will eat something otherwise I will smack you upside the head." Jeff laughed

"Fine mom, I will have toast but that's it. That's all I have time for." He quickly threw two slices of toast in the toaster and then grabbed the peanut butter out of the pantry. His toast popped up just as he opened the jar. He quickly spread peanut butter on both slices and shoved them in his mouth just as Sam honked his horn. He grabbed his bag off the floor and ran to the door. "eye om, I uv oooo." She just chuckled.

"I uv ooo, too sweetie." Jeff opened the door and shut it behind him before he ran to Sam's car. Jeff was surprised to see Rory sitting in the front seat. Jeff opened the backseat door and slid inside the car.

"Morning guys."

"Mornin' Jeff." Sam said as he put the car in reverse and pulled out of Jeff's driveway.

"Top of the Mornin'." Rory smiled cheekily.

"Do you do that just to be cliché?"

"Maybe, it's fun sometimes seein' yer faces when I say the stereotypical irish sayin's." Jeff just shook his head and laughed and Sam looked over at Rory with a fond smile and heart eyes. It was disgustingly sweet.

"So how was your night Jeff?" Jeff paled. Should he tell them?

"Uh it was fine I suppose, uh…Nick…came over and we worked on our song." Sam nodded his head but then stopped and thought a minute before catching Jeff's eyes in the rearview mirror.

"Wait yesterday was Monday; your parents work late on Mondays. What were you thinking agreeing to that Jeff? What if he tried something?"

"I think he already did Sammy, Jeff's got a love bite on his neck there." Jeff blushed and brought his hand up to his neck.

"WHAT? You let him give you a hickey?" Sam turned to look at him but quickly turned back around to watch the road.

"Yeah maybe I did, so what?" Jeff crossed his arms petulantly.

"So what? Jeff you let him molest you, I thought you were smarter than that. Was it because he showed some interest in you? Did you really let him get that far on some sexually charged comments that were probably used just to get with you?" They pulled into the parking lot and as soon as the car stopped Jeff got out of the car and started walking towards the front doors. "Jeff!" Jeff turned around.

"Don't Sam, just don't. You want to know why I let him do this?" He pointed to his neck. "Because I wanted him to, because he made me feel special and it felt a hell of a lot good too. Sure he's not the sweetest guy in the world but he can be to me when he wants to. And sure he doesn't like me like I like him but it felt like he did. And yes Sam I do like him sue me but don't question my judgment, we're friends and I care about you but don't treat me like a child or your baby sister that needs her virtue protected because I don't and I'm not." Jeff turned and started walking towards the doors again.

"What happened to you Jeff? You would never say anything like that before and you never got so mad. You've been acting different ever since Duval got here." Jeff stopped but didn't turn.

"I'm finally standing up for myself and saying what I think Sam, Nick doesn't have anything to do with that." He resumed his walking and entered the school making his way quickly to the choir room, completely missing someone climbing off their motorcycle in the staff parking lot. And completely missing how they had heard the whole thing.

O.O.O

This had to be the worst day of Jeff's entire school career and that was saying something; he was locked in a deserted girls bathroom once for 4 hours. The day started bad and just continued to descend into worse. After his fight with Sam he walked into the school and quickly made his way to the choir room, he wanted some time alone. Soon people started to trickle in not paying much attention to him but that was normal, they were friends but they weren't best friends. Kurt and Blaine came in and sat beside Jeff like it was just any other normal day but when Sam and Rory walked in, they took one look at Jeff then looked at each other and went in sat the other end of the row. Everyone stopped and looked at them and then at Jeff then back to them, it was strange that they weren't sitting together, Sam and Jeff were best friends. Then Nick walked in, he looked even better than yesterday. He was still wearing his brown leather jacket but he was wearing a tight navy blue V-neck that stretched across his chest and stomach, you could see the ridges of Nick's abs pressing against the fabric. His hair was damp and free and Jeff had never wanted to run his hands through someone's hair more. Jeff also wanted to run out of the room, he didn't honestly think that Nick would show up today. Jeff wasn't sure why he thought that but he did and now he wasn't sure what to do. Nick walked towards Jeff, more like sauntered and walked up to his seat behind him. Nick smirked and Jeff swore that he felt Nick ghost his fingers across the mark on his neck. Mr. Schuester came in and talked quickly about Sectionals and reminded them about glee after school and then dismissed them, Jeff could feel Nick's eyes on him the entire time. Jeff was the first one up and out the door. He walked towards his locker but as he turned the corner he seen Azimio walking down the hall in his direction. Jeff was tall and had platinum blonde hair, it was a like a beacon. Why he was invisible with hair like that he didn't know, only the jocks seemed to notice him. He quickly turned around and took a less populated side hallway and went all the way around to his locker. He stopped and looked around the corner carefully and didn't go to his locker until the coast was clear. He opened it quickly and put away his books that he didn't need and kept his books for his first period calc class. He didn't hear him walk up behind him.

"Well well well, if it isn't sweet," Nick pressed his entire front along Jeff's back and place both his hand on top of Jeff's chest and slid them down his chest to his stomach and stopped them right at the waistband of his jeans. "Little," He then dragged his hands to hips and slid them up to his waist and back down to his hips. "Innocent," He whispered into Jeff's ear, his lips caressing his skin and warm breath fanning across his neck. He then took his earlobe into his mouth and nibbled on the warm flesh. He removed his mouth and put his lips to Jeff's ear again. "Jeff." He removed his hands from Jeff's hips and put them on his ass and squeezed then attached his mouth to the hickey on his neck. He licked at the mark and gently kneaded Jeff's ass in his hands. Jeff's head fell back onto Nick's shoulder, closed his eyes and reached up and threaded his fingers in Nick's slightly damp hair. Nick started to place gentle kisses up and down his neck and then quickly spun Jeff around and pressed him into the lockers, making sure to press as much of their bodies together as physically possible. Jeff felt Nick's hardness on his hip and he was sure that Nick could feel his. How could he do this to Jeff so easily, make Jeff so overcome with arousal with just a few words and carefully placed touches? Jeff pulled his lower lip into his mouth to keep any sounds from escaping. "You are so fucking sexy Sterling; I can barely control myself around you. C'mon babe, I know you want it, I know you want me." Jeff closed his eyes, he wouldn't give in, he couldn't give in to Nick no matter how much he wants him. "I would be so good to you, make you feel things you couldn't imagine, make you come undone so thoroughly that you won't be able to remember your name. I know you want it, I know you crave it, crave me." Jeff was losing it, there was just something about Nick's voice, it was deep and rumbling and he was practically growling the words into Jeff's ear. He didn't want to fight it anymore he wanted to let Nick take him, let Nick have his wicked way with him. He wanted to do something spontaneous and not at all like him. Nick must have known that he was winning and needed that little extra push because he slowly and strongly grinded his hips against Jeff, pulling Jeff's hips forward with his hands on his ass and letting their hard lengths rub together through the denim. "That's it Jeff just give in." He removed one hand and placed it on the lockers by Jeff's neck.

"Nick…" Jeff breathed softly. Just as he was about to kiss Nick and give in, Sam's words from earlier rang in his head. Jeff you let him molest you, I thought you were smarter than that. Was it because he showed some interest in you? Did you really let him get that far on some sexually charged comments that were probably used just to get with you? Jeff opened his eyes and pushed Nick back just enough to squeeze through the gap under Nick's arm. He shut his locker with a slam and placed his bag in front of his groin.

"I have to go; I'm going to be late." He started walking down the hallway.

"Sterling—"

"I'll see you in glee." He said over his shoulder and quickly walked down the hall. Just as he turned the corner he was met with a cold wall of ice and corn syrup.
