Exams were over, and it seemed so was the cold. The days had warmed up drastically over the short week and long sleeves were now out of the question. Seifer had pretty much totally avoided Hayner after the incident at the sandlot a week ago. However, today was the day of Struggle preliminaries and there was no way he was backing out. Seifer gave out a large sigh, hoping desperately that he would not have to fight the younger blonde. Un able to waste anymore time in his apartment, Seifer took up his things and left his apartment.
Relief and slight irritation ran though Seifer when he arrived at the sandlot. Hayner was no where to be found. Seifer tsk'ed at himself for liking such a coward such as Hayner, then again, he had also been avoiding the blonde as if he were the plague. Just as the ring shop owner began to make the opening statements, Seifer caught sight of the boy entering the sandlot. A mixture between tension and relief shot through his body at the sight of the honey eyed boy. There eyes met for a split second before Seifer turned away, surprised by the feeling of flushed cheeks. How the hell was he blushing? Seifer never blushed, never!
"Now If the contestants would make there way to a quick briefing before the tournament begins." Said the announcer. The crowd made its way towards the score board and Seifer moved along with it. He easily tuned out the rules and watched the crowd. He had heard them spoken numerous times before and couldn't even listen if he wanted to. The inner turmoil of his mind blocked pretty much anything from him.
"The first match will be... Seifer and Alvin." A huge sigh of relief escaped his lips. If the cards were played right, he might not even have to be closer then three feet to the younger blonde.
Luck was on his side today, as each match passed, so did Seifer and so did Hayner, but neither of the boys would have to fight the other. Preliminaries were over and the final four had been chosen. Hayner, and Seifer being among those four. Seifer was on his way out when a familiar voice called his name. 'Shit...' The older blonde thought as he turned around to see who had called his name.
"We need to talk." Hayner said simply, a determined look on his face. Seifer's heart skipped a beat as he tried to think up an excuse. He attempted to slip on his normal smirk and conceded look but had a feeling no one would be buying it.
"Like hell we do, what would I have to say to a Lamer like you." he spit out quickly.
"Oh really, is that what you think of me? Then why the hell did you kiss me that day!" Hayner asked, his eyes flashing with confusion and hurt. Seifer felt his jaw tighten, how was he supposed to answer that question when in reality he didn't even know the answer him self? Why had he kissed Hayner so suddenly? Why did the boy litter every one of his thoughts? Why had he fallen for him? When had he fallen? All of these were questions even Seifer didn't know the answers to.
"I...I don't... it doesn't concern you chickenwuss, just forget it!" Seifer said, turning his head away from the boy. This time anger flashed through the younger boys eyes.
"Of course it does! You've been avoiding me all week! Don't you get it! That's not a normal thing to do you jerk! You don't just go around kissing people, let alone guys!" Hayner's face had taken on a pink tinge and Seifer couldn't help but notice how cute he was when he was angry. He quickly shook off the thoughts letting them become ones of anger.
"Of course I know it's not normal! I.. Just, I don't know what I was thinking, just forget about it already!" He yelled back at Hayner before storming off.
"Seifer!" Hayner yelled before chasing after him.
Hayner followed him into a alley way before cornering him again.
"Give me a straight answer Seifer! Why did you kiss me!" Hayner grabbed at Seifer's vest leaning him closer to show how angry he was. Something snapped in Seifer and he found himself huging Hayner closer to him. He looked deeply into the honey eyes of Hayner, trying to get him to understand the fact that he didnt know why either, before crushing his lips to the younger boys once again. His arms snaked around Hayner pulling him even closer, deepening the kiss. Un able to control himself, Hayner found his lips to be moving in time with Seifer's. The younger boy's arms snaked around Seifer's back causing there to be little to no space between them. The simple kiss became more passionate as Seifer slipped his tongue into Hayner's mouth. A suprised moan escaping the younger boys lips. Seifer's whole body was reacting to the kiss of this boy, more then any other kiss had before. He could only hope that Hayner felt the same. Seifer could feel his pants tighten as there tongues rolled together. Seifer pulled away from Hayner and let his gaze fall to the ground but made no move to run away this time. Hayner attempted to open his mouth to say something but nothing would come. The younger boy wiped his mouth on the back of his hand and backed up a little from Seifer.
"I don't know why..." Seifer said, hesitating while trying to piece his words together. "But I think I might like you, chickenwuss." Seifer wiped his mouth too before beginning to walk away. He was almost out of the alley before Hayner called out his name.
"Seifer! Wait... I... I." What was he about to say? Hayner's eyes were filled with confusion, this whole thing just didn't make any sense at all. The younger boys cheeks flushed and before he could even think, he was wrapped in Seifer's arms once again.
"You're so cute when you blush." Seifer whispered into the boys ear.
"What the- what are you saying you jerk!" Hayner said before flushing even more.
"I have no idea." With that the boys conversation ended, replaced by a passionate kiss. Seifer pushed Hayner down to the ground while pushing his tounge into the smaller boys mouth once again. Another peep of suprise escaping the younger blonde. Seifer broke the kiss to give a small bite to the boys ear. Seifer then licked the sensitive skin of the boys ear all the while never taking his eyes off of the boys face. Hayner couldn't help but give a small sound of pleasure, he was still totally shocked at what was happening. Seifer gave a line of small kisses down the boys neck before stopping at Hayner's clothed chest. Seifer teased the boys nipples though his shirt. Suddenly the scene dawned on Hayner and he quickly wriggled free of Seifer's grasp.
"What the hell! You just... you just cant do that!" His face was redder then a strawberry and a very defined bump poked from the crotch of his pants. Seifer seemed to come to his senses a bit too. What the hell was he doing? Was he really just about to do what he thought he might of? A defined bulge also present on his crotch. He smirked when he saw Hayner's.
"Like you didn't like it." He chuckled and wiped his mouth. He would most likely be eating his words soon as a very pissed off- and embarrassed - look crossed the younger blondes face.
"Like hell I did!" He said standing to get even more space in between them. He quickly turned his face away so that Seifer couldn't see his bewildered look.
A few moments of silence passed between the boys. Both refused to move, to stubborn to flee yet to embarrassed to speak. Seifer stood and walked in front of Hayner, who in turn stood his ground but was obviously nervous. He leaned in closer to Hayner until there faces had but an inch between them. Hayner stiffened and Seifer chuckled.
"You. Like. It" Seifer said slowly in a deeper tone then usual. Hayner couldn't help but shiver as the words rang though him but still refused to back down.
"Li-like hell I do!" Hayner stammered trying not to let his voice crack. Seifer sighed and backed away, Hayner did the same trying to keep as much space between them as possible. Foot steps could be heard coming around the corner and Hayner sighed in relief as the familiar faces of Pence and Olette appeared before him. The brunette girl gave Seifer a dirty look before asking Hayner if he was okay. Pence was half gawking at bulges in the boys pants.
"Hayner...?" Pence asked but was quickly glared down by the younger blonde. Seifer laughed heartily in his condescending manner.
"Well I'm out of here, you go play nice now chicken-wuss." Seifer said before making his leave.
Even though he seemed cool calm and collected, inside his mind was running a mile a minute, and then of course there was that issue involving his crotch area. 'What the hell am I thinking? Was I really just about to do something like that? And with Hayner!' His mind was in total chaos and nothing made sense. Once he was safely inside his small apartment he tried to calm himself down. He sat down on his couch and pressed his palms to his eyes. "Hayner..." The older blonde said aloud. He unzipped his pants and grasped his length in his hand. The blushing face of the younger blonde overwhelming his thought process.
"Wait... Seifer did what!" Pence said totally not comprhending what his best friend had told him. The two had dropped Olette off at her house and where now walking to Hayner's.
"He kissed me..." Hayner said, he had already gone through the whole story with Pence. Hayner couldn't shake the feeling of Seifer's soft lips against his out of his head. He had to resist the urge to lift his fingers to them. There was no way he enjoyed that, but then why had his body betrayed him?
"So Seifer's gay? For you? and he practically just raped you in the alley way and you didn't do anything? What's wrong with you! I would've beaten him to a pulp!" Pence said throwing his arms in the air for exasperation. Hayner shook his head trying to shake his thoughts back in order.
"I- I gotta go." Hayner said before taking off. He just needed to be alone for a little while, talking wasn't helping. He didn't want to go home yet either, to much parental drama. What he needed right now was to be alone. He let his feet wander, to lost in his thoughts to care about where he was going. Hayner felt him self stop and was suprised to find himself in that alley way where not much earlier he had been with Seifer. His eyes mouth and eyes narrowed in frustration.
"Why the hell am I here!" Hayner said frustrated with how confused he was by the whole thing. He slammed his hand against the brick walls and instantly regretted it. Pain shot up his arm from where his soft skin had been shredded by the rough brick.
"Damnit!" Hayner yelled holding his hand to his chest. He sat down against the brick to frustrated and confused to care about getting home at a decent hour.
The older blonde grabbed a dirty towel to clean up. He was still very confused but at least a little calmed down. He opened his refrigerator and frowned a bit as he realized how empty it was. He checked the time, it was still a couple hours before the grocery closed and he decided to head out. The air had gained a slight bite to it as the sun began to lower itself out of the sky. There was only one way to the store from the blondes small apartment and that small alley way was along it. Seifer tried to shake the events from his mind and focus solely on the task before him but still couldn't shake Hayner from his mind. As he reached the alleyway the boy couldn't help but stop and look down it. His breath caught at the sight of Hayner eyes closed and bloodied. Total concern washed over Seifer as he rushed over to Hayner.
"Dammit, Hayner I swear if your hurt I'll- I... I don't know what I'll do!" Seifer shook the younger blonde before bringing him into his arms. He looked at the boys hand covered in dried blood and tsk'ed. Hayner began to stir as Seifer picked him up.
"What... who?" Hayner said drowsily.
"Hayner could you really be this stupid!" Seifer yelled at the boy.
"Heh, you didn't call me chickenwuss..." Hayner said leaning his head against Seifer's chest. Seifer felt a slight warmth come to his cheeks and he quickly dropped the boy.
"Ow! Damnit, what the hell!" Hayner complained as he woke up. He then quickly blushed as he realized who was with him and what he had just done.
"Come on lamer, we got to clean off your hand." Seifer said shoving him along.
"Wah-wait! Where are we going!" Hayner protested as Seifer forced the boy forward.
"My house. It's closer." Seifer said matter-o-factly.
