Chapter 14
When Principal Richards finally got around to seeing them the buzz had worn off and Jack realized that he had just cursed out a teacher. His mother was going to have a fit. They waited thirty agonizing minutes before Principal Richards was ready to see them. Then they spent another twenty minutes listening to his lecture. Jack zoned out and was making a mental list for Friday nights party.
"Congratulations, boys you are the only two students with detention this weekend." The balding older man declared.
Both Chris and Jack exchanged looks. Jack's mind was racing if they were the only students in detention chances were they would end up having sex in a classroom one of his ultimate Chris fantasies being taken on a desk.
"You may return to your classes." Principal Richards said.
Just as they recess bell rang. Jack and Chris got up from their chairs and went out to the courtyard where all the other students were gathering.
"That wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be." Chris said.
"You're right it wasn't." Jack said.
"Is everyone staring at us or is it just me being paranoid?" Jack asked as they walked up to the candy machine.
"You're not being paranoid. They are looking at us." Chris said without even looking around.
"There's a big cluster of guys from the basket
ball team talking about us over there." Chris said reaching down and retrieving his Twix .
"You want some thing. I've got the munchies." Chris said.
"Nah. I'm not all that hungry." Jack said, choosing to ignore his boyfriend's less than subtle subject change.
"Chris?" Jack asked.
"Yeah." Chris said tearing open the candy wrapper.
"How do you know those guys are talking about us?" Jack asked.
Chris shrugged taking a bite of the candy.
"Chris." Jack said giving his best no nonsense expression.
Jack wanted to know what was going on there was definite weirdness going around and Chris knew about it.
"What do you want me to say Jack?" Chris asked suddenly defensive.
"I want you to tell me what's going on." Jack said.
"I'm sorry Jack it's just one of those things." Chris said.
"One of what things?" Jack asked.
"Those things that a person just knows. You can call it intuition or maybe it's that I've had enough people talk shit about me behind my back to know what it feels like." Chris said.
"What it feels like?" Jack echoed.
"You know what I mean." Chris said just as Tim Snyder one of the football players from another group walked up to them.
"What's up guys I just wanted to say that it's awesome what you two are doing." He said.
Jack frowned confused.
"I'm gonna say this once and once only." Tim said loud enough to stop all conversations in the courtyard.
"If anyone has a damn thing to say about either one of them you'll be dealing with me." Tim said.
All of the conversations resumed. And Jack was finally able to ask, "What are they saying about us?"
"Oh don't worry about those close minded assholes. There is absolutely nothing wrong with being gay." Tim said.
Jack looked at Chris who didn't look surprised at all.
"So McCallister are you still having that party Friday?" Tim asked.
"Yeah." Jack said still confused about the whole thing.
He hadn't told anyone about him and Chris and he was sure Chris hadn't either.
"Do you need me and the guys to bring anything? Kegs? Chips?" Tim asked.
"Can you score a keg?" Jack asked.
"Yeah my cousin works at this bar in town he can get one really cheap." Tim said.
"Cool." Jack said.
"Cool." Tim said walking back over to his friends.
"Okay so what in the hell is going on? How does everyone know about us?" Jack asked.
"I'll give you two guesses." Chris said taking another bite of his candy.
Jack followed his eyes and saw that Chris was looking at Bobby and his mother Grace who were walking over wearing a PFLAG button.
"Are you okay with this baby?" Jack asked.
"Yeah question is are you? You are the one who was all popular and stuff. I'm the mysterious dude from California remember with the enigmatic green eyes." Chris said fluttering his eyelashes dramatically.
"Well now I can kiss you anytime I want." Jack said with an impish smirk.
"Not now your mother is coming over here." Chris said.
Jack could almost swear he was blushing.
"Well since we're out and everything. I'm gonna hold your hand." Jack said taking Chris' free hand in his.
"Are you aware that I just got pulled out of important lecture because you were mouthing off to your teacher?" Grace McCallister
said as walked up to them.
"I know that."
"Why did you do it Jack?" She demanded. Jack shuffled his feet.
"I didn't mean to… I cussed her out on an accident. She was talking stuff about Chris when he wasn't in the room it was totally unfair." Jack said.
Grace didn't respond she just clicked her tongue.
"Hey Chris." Bobby said from where he stood behind his mother.
"Hey Bobby." Chris said.
"Where were you this morning?" Bobby asked.
"I overslept." Chris said.
"Hello Chris it's nice to see you again." Grace said once she had calmed down a considerable amount.
"Good afternoon Ms. McCallister. It's nice to see you again," Chris said smiling at her.
Jack noticed that Chris had a way with people when he wanted too, he could charm the pants right off just about anyone.
"Did you guys happen to tell anyone you know about us?" Jack asked. "No. I just got one of these," Grace said pointing to her button. "I didn't." Bobby replied.
"The whole school seems to know about us." Chris said.
"You didn't make out in the hallway or anything?" Grace asked.
Jack gave his mother a look. Chris chuckled slightly and then the blood drained from his face.
"The secretary saw us holding hands. That must be how it got around." Chris said.
"The nurse saw you licking my neck." Jack said.
"No I took care of that she won't remember we were in there." Chris said.
Jack looked at him quizzically. Chris blushed and averted his eyes.
"Must have been Missy." Jack said.
"You think she would tell it?" Chris asked.
"She can't keep a secret to save her life." Jack said dryly.
"We're out I'm over it. We were going to have to let everyone know sooner or later. They would know something was up when we were slow dancing together at the Winter Formal." Chris said giving Jack's hand a light squeeze.
"You told Missy?" Grace asked.
"She kind of guessed." Jack said.
"She must have been upset." Grace said.
"If she was she had Courtney to console her." Jack said raising an eyebrow.
"You've got to be kidding me." Grace said. Jack shook his head.
"I'm serious Mom. They are probably fooling around somewhere as we speak." Jack said.
"Did you see any of that Missy and Courtney action?" Bobby asked.
"Yeah," Jack said noncommittally.
"Must've been hot." Bobby said.
Grace, Chris, and Jack looked at the younger boy as if he were losing his mind
"What?" Bobby asked.
"Come on Bobby we're going to be late for your doctor's appointment." Grace said.
"Hey I thought you got pulled out of a lecture to come up here?" Jack asked.
"I wanted you to feel guilty," She called over her shoulder as she and Bobby started away.
"That was weird," Jack said.
"Yes it was." Chris agreed popping the last piece of candy into his mouth. Jack knew Chris would probably be hyper in Spanish class.
Spanish class was as it usually was loud talking, gambling, and excessive use of the f- word. Mrs. Day spent most of the hour on her cell phone. Chris won more candy in a poker game, which he ate making him more hyper than he was already. They were all sitting around ready to run out of the room as soon as the bell rang they had three or four minutes until it rang and it seemed like an eternity. Chris was humming a song and bouncing around in his chair.
"What are you humming?" Mrs. Day asked. "Oh nothing," Chris said. "Come on." She prodded. "Chris you're a great singer show them what you got," Jack said. "Okay," Chris said feeling suddenly nervous, he'd never sung in front that many people before. He took a deep breath.
"I know you heard men say it, time and time again that they would rock your world and change your life. But I can't blame them cause you make a dude wanna get involved wanna get them draws," Chris sang standing up as he went into total musical autopilot.
"Well I'm gone put my bid in to get with you, no disrespect I cause I want it just as bad as they do. The only difference is they look out for themselves but I'm doing it just to hear you yell. "Chris sang locking eyes with Jack who bit his lip and squirmed in his seat. Chris knew he had to continue.
"O...that's gonna be the sound boy when I'm going down. You be sayin' O. You don't have to say my name I'm just so glad you came. So you can say O... In the morning O... in the night. You saying O cause I must be hittin' it right. Don't be mad at me I'm just aiming to please." Chris sang.
"Come on over and we can get this thing crackin'. You'll be surprised when you see what all I'm packin'. Cause I'm young but I'm
ready wanna get hot and heavy turn you out if you let me." Chris sang. "I'm gonna take you someplace that you ain't ever been show you some things that will make you wanna show your friends. Have you so weak you can't even say a thing. But that's okay." Chris sang as he rounded the desk and placed himself in Jack's lap.
He hadn't sat in another man's lap since he was three and he was taking a picture with his dad. This was way better. Chris draped his arm around Jack's shoulders forgetting about everyone else in the room and resumed singing,
"O...that's gonna be the sound boy when I'm going down. You be sayin' O. You don't have to say my name I'm just so glad you came. So you can say O... In the morning O... in the night. You saying O cause I must be hittin' it right. Don't be mad at me I'm just aiming to please."
"O is for that overtime I'm puttin' in. We'll go for hours take a break and go at it again. I'll work my way all the way from A all the way to Z. Trust in me O is where you wanna be. Just believe me when I tell you I'm not trynna tell you what to do. Cause when it's said and done the choice ain't mine it's really up to you. Just say yes don't fix your mouth to tell me no. Drop that bottom jaw for me and just say O." Chris sang.
He could feel Jack's erection against his thigh; he had gotten exactly the reaction he wanted.
"Boy you can sang." Mrs. Day said bringing Chris out of his lustful reverie. Chris blinked remembering that there were other people in the room. "I didn't know ya'll was together." She said. Chris looked at Jack who blushed.
"We've just started." Jack said. "Well go ahead then! Shake them haters off," She said.
Chris laughed. Nobody had ever said that to him. The bell rang then, and Chris got off Jack's lap.
"You were amazing." Jack said. "You're my inspiration," Chris said as they filed out of the classroom with the other students.
"You make me so horny," Jack said pinning Chris against the wall.
Chris giggled and said, "I've got about an hour before I got to go to work." "That's not nearly enough time but I guess it will have to do," Jack said pouting slightly. Chris craned his neck slightly leaning down to kiss away his pout.
"Come on." Chris said writhing out from in between Jack and the wall. He grabbed Jack's hand and they walked out of the rapidly empting building.
