For The Love of Yaoi!
Chapter Two: BTR
Three weeks past eighteen, and here I was, in love with a man, and a girl I didn't want to hurt chasing after me. How much more screwed up would my life have to get before I could be considered clinically insane?
Well, it was around seven o'clock, and I had just finished selling some of my crops to Katie's grandfather. It was, again, another sweltering evening without promise of cooling off anytime soon, and I was restless. I just started walking, and before I knew it my feet had taken me up to the Goddess Lake. I stopped for a moment to breathe in the cool, clean air up there, and I heard something over by the bridge. I looked and nearly feel over when I saw that it was Kurt. I hadn't talked to him in at least five days, and I could feel the tension like a tightrope between us, about to snap and send us both tumbling into nothingness.
I didn't make a sound, and all he did was sit there, staring out over the water. 'This is is,' I decided, starting to walk toward him, 'I'm gonna talk to him, right now.' And, amazingly enough, I did not trip or fall at any time during the completion of this plan. I was so very proud of myself.
"Hey, Kurt..." He jumped at my voice, and straightened up immediately. I tried not to wince, and instead, I sat down next to him, wondering what to say.
"Listen, Kurt, I... well, I don't know exactly why I did what I did, but, well..." I kinda lost my momentum mid-sentence, and just let it hang in the thick air, not really knowing what else I could possibly spew forth to make it mean something.
"It's okay, Jesse." I let out my breath as he turned to face me, a slight smile playing on his lips.
"It-it is? You don't hate me or anything... do you?" For a moment his eyes widened, and I thought that he had changed his mind, but when he spoke, I realised that he was merely surprised.
"I don't- I mean, I don't think I could ever hate you..."
Of all the times to notice a really inane thing, I happened to look down, and I couldn't help but see (due to his slightly short tank top) a tattoo just above the hem of his pants. I cocked my head to the right, and pointed at it, my curiosity taking over.
"What's that?"
Kurt looked to where I was pointing, and then raised his eyebrow at me in a mocking sort of way. I rolled my eyes and poked his tattoo, and a look of comprehension dawned on his face. He turned to lean back on his arms, and let the moonlight shine on him. The white rays pooled around him, lightening his already pale skin, and reflecting off of his hair, turning everything to shades of grey and white. My breath quickened as I leaned over to look at the tattoo, midnight black against velvety white skin.
"BTR..." I spoke the letters as quietly as possible, yet I'm positive that he heard me. "What does it mean?"
"Ya really wanna know?" He looked at me with a lopsided grin on his face, and I simply nodded my head. He leaned back up toward me, took hold of my chin, and looked into my eyes, and said,"Built To Ride." I gulped, and he kissed me, and I kissed him back. His tongue brushed lightly at my lips, and I opened my mouth to him. His mouth was warm and wet and tasted of something that was so essentially HIM, and all I knew in that moment was that I wanted to taste more of him.
I deepened the kiss, my hands roaming over his chest, and under his tank top. I don't know how, exactly, it happened, but I ended up on the bottom. I could hear myself off in the distance somewhere, mewling out tiny whimpers, and I both hated and loved feeling this way. His lips were so soft on mine, and I couldn't believe that this was actually happening; my dream being acted out right here on a bridge in plain view. In plain view...
It didn't hit me until I heard the gasp. Almost instantly, I felt numb; even in Kurt's arms, where I had never felt so safe. We'd been found. I was afraid to look, but I did anyway. I was always a curious person, and, like they say, curiosity killed the cat. I saw her standing there, so pale, shock dripping from her very pores.
"Gwen."
A/N: Okay, so maybe not the direction I was originally going with this, but still for awesome. Sorry to leave you with the suspence, but I just stretched my imagination for you guys, and I'm not sure I can spare much more today. 'Sides, me am sick and gots ta rest now. So, I'll blather on in your general direction at a later date. 'Kay?
Much love,
Remember that you can't stop the bum-rush,
Peace out,
Sarah
