It had been a whole week since camp ended and today was the first day that Jake and Steven would interact outside of that environment. Thankfully, Steven didn't live very far from Jake, so it only took Jake a 10-minute walk to get to Steven's house.
When he got there, Steven's house looked the same as Lucas'. Not too small, but not too big either. He rang the doorbell and was greeted by Steven.
"Dude, you're here!" Steven said before the two boyfriends gave each other a hug.
"What's going on with you?" asked Steven.
"Nothing much. I've been stuck in the house, doing nothing since camp ended. You?" said Jake.
"Same. I hung out with Bill yesterday, but we can't do anything today because he's busy. But I'm really glad you're here though. Come on in." Steven said before he let Jake enter his home.
"So, where are your parents?" asked Jake.
"My dad is upstairs, and my mom is at work." said Steven.
"You got any siblings?" asked Jake.
"Nope. I'm an only child. I know you have an older brother. It's Matt, right?" said Steven.
"Yeah, you got it right." said Jake.
"How's he?" asked Steven.
"He's doing fine. He's dating Lucas' sister right now." said Jake.
"Woah. That's big." said Steven.
"Yeah. Lucas and I are hoping they stay together and get married so we can be stepbrothers." said Jake.
"Cool, so you want to watch TV?" asked Steven.
"Yeah." Jake said before the two boyfriends sat down on the couch to watch some cartoons.
After watching several episodes of Jimmy Neutron, Jake asked Steven, "So, you want to do some boyfriend stuff?"
"Sure. What kind of stuff?" asked Steven.
"I don't know. I guess the same stuff that guys do with girls. Like holding hands." said Jake.
"Okay." said Steven.
Jake and Steven proceeded to hold hands romantically and Steven said, "Is it me or does this feel weird?"
"It does feel weird but it's not a bad kind of weird. I'm just not used to this." said Jake.
"Same. What else could we do?" asked Steven.
"You want to just wear undies?" Jake responded.
"Well, I've never done it at home before, but sure." said Steven.
Jake and Steven quickly took off their clothes, leaving them in nothing but their tighty whities. Jake didn't want to be naked in Steven's house, so wearing underwear was as far as he wanted to go.
"Isn't this better?" asked Jake.
"Much better. I can't believe I wasn't doing this before I met you and Lucas." said Steven.
"So…um…I know another thing that girls do with guys. And I'm not saying we should do it now but eventually…we could…" Jake attempted to say.
"Kiss?" Steven finished for Jake.
"Yeah, kiss." said Jake.
"We could do it now." said Steven.
"Now?!" said Jake.
"Yeah, it's not a big deal. Guys our age kiss girls all the time. If they can do it, why can't we?" asked Steven.
"Well, I was hoping it would be more of a special moment." said Jake.
"It doesn't have to be. We can do a quick kiss on the lips, instead of a long kiss with tongue." said Steven.
"Umm…okay." Jake said nervously.
The boys then looked at each other, before closing their eyes. They leaned in and their lips touched for a second. They then moved back, and it started to set in that this was real. They did in fact kiss each other.
"Woah. That was our first kiss." said Jake.
"Yeah, it definitely won't be our last. That wasn't too bad, was it?" asked Steven.
"No, it was good." said Jake said before both he and Steven blushed.
For the next few hours, Jake and Steven just did whatever. They ate some snacks, played some video games, talked about superheroes, and had a wrestling match on the floor. While in the middle of a match, Steven's dad entered the room and saw Jake and Steven wrestling in only their underwear. The room was so silent that you could hear a pin drop.
"So, you boys want to explain what's going on here?" asked Steven's dad.
"Yeah, um, Jake, this is my dad. Dad, this is Jake, a friend I made at Camp Maverick. He's also my boyfriend." said Steven.
"Nice to meet you, sir." said Jake.
"Boyfriend?" asked Steven's dad.
"Yep, we're boyfriends." said Steven.
"Well, that's fine but you still didn't answer my question." said Steven's dad.
"We're wrestling." said Jake.
"In only your underwear?" asked Steven's dad.
"Yeah. It's better this way, so we don't mess up our clothes." said Steven.
"Hmph. Well, have fun then." Steven's dad said before walking away.
Once Steven's dad was gone, Jake said, "Dude, you just told your dad about us."
"Yeah, he's cool with gay stuff. My mom, not so much. So, I'm not going to tell her anything for a while. Have you told your parents?" asked Steven.
"No. I've only told Matt and that's it. I'm not sure when I should tell them." said Jake.
"Well, that's up to you, not me. But we now know that my dad and your brother are cool with us. It's better than no one." said Steven.
"True." said Jake.
After another hour, it was time for Jake to leave. He put on his clothes, and gave Steven a long hug, before walking out of Steven's house and walking back home.
"Now this definitely the best summer of my life." Jake said to himself while walking home.
Hope you enjoyed the chapter. It felt different not writing about summer camp stuff, but I think it turned out alright. The next chapter will deal with Lucas going to Kyle's house and learning more about Kyle. Also, I'm working on a ton of stories (one-shots, old stories, and new stories), so stay tuned for more updates. Other than that, I hope you all have a wonderful day. Bye for now and stay safe.
