Disclaimer: We don't own the Ducks and probably never will because they belong to Disney. However, Emaliar Malfoy does own Bella, Emily, and a few other random characters.
A/N: This is the sequel to the other Mighty Ducks fic "The Way Things Are". We recommend you read that one first. However, this can also be read as a stand-alone story. Please read and review.
Chapter 5:
Adam's POV
I didn't go straight to bed after speaking to Emily. I really don't regret that decision either. After a little time watching the last of the sunset I went up to my room. I waited up until Gunnar returned.
"I'm sorry Banks,' He said in his Icelandic drawl. 'I trust the ve ear good?"
"Yeah we're good. I'm sorry. I mean that you're not even that bad— of a kisser that is – I was scared and, I guess—" I started to say.
Then he kissed me. Again, just to shut me up and the worst part is:
I enjoyed it. A lot.
So, I intensified it. Exploring every bit of his mouth with my tongue and then after several minutes we broke apart. Just in time to hear a wasted Charlie making his way down to our room.
"Ve should probably go help him," Gunnar said.
"Yeah, we should," I said.
We walked out into the hall and heaved Charlie to his bed. Which still had no sheets or anything and tried to convince him to go to sleep. That was harder.
Once Charlie was settled into his drunken slumber, I turned back to Gunnar.
"Well," I said.
"Vell," Gunnar said.
"I like you," I blurted out. Shit, I sounded like a pre-teen girl or something.
"That's convenient considering that, I like vou too. For a long time," Gunnar said.
"What wow," I said doing a double take.
"Veah," Gunnar said.
"Can I kiss you again?" I asked, kicking myself at how stupid that sounded.
"I don't see vhy not," He responded.
So, I did. We fell onto my bed as we made out for at least half an hour before we fell asleep in one another's arms.
When we woke the next morning, I sprang from Gunnar's embrace and looked at the clock on the side table, 7:45. Fifteen more minutes and we'd miss breakfast, which would lead to missing the first class of the day, which was French 2. I could not miss a lot of classes this year, because I missed a hell of a lot last year. Gunnar quickly climbed up to his bunk to make it look like it had been slept in. While I was shaking Charlie awake. When we finally pulled Charlie out of bed, we made our way down to our table in the cafeteria.
It was extremely tense when we arrived. Guy and Connie were not even acknowledging each other. The old Varsity guys were doing their best to keep a distance from us Ducks. Portman, Fulton, Russ, Kenny, and Goldberg kept giving Gunnar dirty looks. I can only imagine what would happen if they found out what had happened between the two of us, last night. You know what, I am not even going to go there.
Things only got worse as the day progressed. As I was walking down to the bus stop after Study Hall when I saw someone, someone who I hadn't seen in over a year.
My brother, Ollie.
A/N: Thanks for reading. As you can probably see the intention is for Adam and Gunnar to get together. Connie and Guy breaking up is just a spat. Anyway, what do you all think of Adam and Gunnar getting together? What do you think Adam and Bella's brother is doing at the school? What do you reckon will happen next? Let us know of your opinions in the reviews.
