Anyhoo, here's the next litte instalment so hope you enjoy :D
Boarding School Hell
The two teens were awoken by the sound of Wyatt's cell phone ringing. Chris sat up and looked around. He was still in the backseat of the his lover's car, but one thing that was not the same was the sky, it was now morning.
As Wyatt answered the call, Chris rubbed the sleep out of his eyes, he was amazed that he had not woken up during the middle of the night, usually if he did not sleep in a bed he did.
"That was my mom," Wyatt said, after he hung up from the call, "She wants us home. She was a little worried. I swear she worries far too much."
"What do you expect," Chris smirked, "You were out all night with your 18-year-old boyfriend. Who she now knows is your boyfriend." Wyatt laughed slightly and laid a gentle kiss on the brunette's lips.
"I can't believe we stayed out all night," the 17-year-old finally stated as the two teens jumped into the front seat, Wyatt was going to drive home, "I closed my eyes for like a second."
"I can't believe I didn't wake up in the middle of the night," Chris said, with a little yawn, "And I can't believe I still feel tired."
"I hope my dad's not home yet, or if he is, he's in bed," Wyatt stated, "And I hope Parker isn't up yet. Although it's just after eight, he shouldn't be up yet, he likes his sleep."
Chris laughed at the Halliwell's comment and looked out of the window, "Are you going to speak to you ex?"
"I'm not sure yet," Wyatt sighed, "I know I should, but I can't bring myself to. It's just another drama that's going to go on and…I don't want another drama. Might leave it after Christmas. Man, two days away, I can't believe it."
"I know," Chris nodded, "Maybe you should at least make up with your brother before Christmas." Wyatt rolled his blue eyes.
"I don't think I'll be making up with anybody within the next two days. My dad and my brother both hate me. Some Christmas this is going to be, but I've got you and that's all that matters."
Chris looked over to the blonde with a soft smile.
"I love you, Wyatt." He said, taking the Halliwell's hand in his own.
Wyatt quickly glanced over and then looked back at the road, caressing the Perry's hand gently; "I love you too. Always."
Piper paced the hallway, nervously looking at the grandfather clock. Wyatt had only stayed out all night once, and that was the previous night after what had happened with Parker. She understood that, but she did not understand this. It was not like she was angry with her eldest son, either, unlike the night before. She had been supportive but because of her husband Wyatt was out. Luckily, the younger Halliwell had answered his cell phone on the first attempt at calling, even if it did take a while. He had obviously fallen asleep, but where would Wyatt go and what would he be doing. He was with his boyfriend too, so God only knew what they were up to. She remembered seeing the hickey on Chris' neck last night, he must have got that when they were out last night, wherever they had gone.
As she heard the front door open, she looked around, pushing the thought of her son and his boyfriend to the back of her mind; all of that could wait. She expected to see Wyatt step through the door but it was not him, it was her husband.
"Did you see Wyatt's car out there?" She asked him, to which he shook his head, "Damn it, what's taking him so long?"
"Piper, what's happened?" Leo asked. He really needed to get some sleep, but his wife's panicking caused him to forget about his own needs, especially when it was about Wyatt. He had left last night after shouting at his step-son, for something so stupid too, and he would never forgive himself if Wyatt had gone out and done something stupid because of it. What if he had driven his car into the bay? Would he do that, over something like that? No, course he would not, not when Wyatt knew there were so many people around him that loved him. His family, friends...Chris...Leo shook his head, the thought of his son in love with his school roommate, this would take some getting use to, but it would be worth it to keep the family together and have his eldest step-son happy.
"Wyatt went out last night, with Chris," Piper explained to the father of her youngest child, "He never came home."
"Have you tried ringing him? He'll have his cell phone on him…"
"Yes, Leo, I have…"
Just then the front door opened again and the two teens walked in.
"Hi mom…" Wyatt said as he stepped through the front door, and then stopped looking at his step-father, "Dad."
"So, I'm dad again." Leo crossed his arms over his chest and frowned at the 17-year-old. He wanted to rush over to him and tell him he was sorry for the way he had reacted to the teen's news, but after the panic he had just had Piper in he had to be stern again.
"Leo, not now," Piper sternly told her husband and then turned to her son, "Wyatt, where have you been? I thought you would have been home…"
"I know mom," Wyatt nodded, "It wasn't intentional. We went for a drive and just fell asleep. I'm really sorry, mom."
"Yeah, Mrs Halliwell," Chris had gone back to being formal, now that she had found out about them, "Really sorry."
"Oh Chris, sweetie, you can still call me Piper," the 55-year-old waved off her son's boyfriend's formalities, "You just got me a little worried when I woke up to find you not back yet."
Understandingly, Wyatt nodded and hugged him mother, apologising again for giving her a scare, and then he turned to his step-father.
"Dad, about last night, I'm really sor…"
"No, son, it should be me who apologises," Leo looked into his son's blue eyes, which were showing a mixture of shock and confusion, "I'm sorry for the way that I acted. It was wrong of me. I should have accepted it and not have been angry. If you're happy, Wyatt, then I should be happy for you."
"Thanks dad," Wyatt smiled softly, "But I shouldn't have said what I did…"
"You had every right," Leo explained, "And you and Chris…I think I can deal…as long as I don't hear anything…"
"Dad!" Wyatt groaned.
"Leo!" Piper exclaimed, her hazel eyes wide as she looked at the amusement on her husband's face. Then she turned to the two boys, "About that. You two sharing a room…"
"Mom, I know, I'll sleep on the…"
"Let me finish Wyatt, I was thinking last night. I didn't like the idea of it, after all if it was one of your girlfriends there would be no chance, and you understand that, I know you do. But you two share a room at school," Piper sighed, although she did not want to do this. She did not want to keep her eldest son in the same room as his boyfriend, "And if we split you up now, we're just delaying what…well, I'm guessing what's already happened from Chris' hickey," Piper looked to the brunette 18-year-old, who was now blushing, "So, you two are fine in a room together, but I swear, I hear one noise from that room that I shouldn't and I will be separating you."
"So, neither of you are bothered I'm gay then."
"Course not, Wyatt," Leo stated, "You're happy that's all that matters. You are happy right?"
"Definitely," Wyatt nodded his head, "One little question though dad, what made you change your mind?"
"Just something that happened at work, that's all."
As father and son got along, Piper turned to Chris.
"So, this is why you've been so understanding of everything that's been happening," Piper nodded, now understanding why Chris had gone with Wyatt the previous night, "Well, thank you for being there for him, and you know you're still welcome here whenever."
"Thanks Piper." Chris smiled, just as a little voice called out from the stairs.
"Wyatt's gay!"
ok, so somebody else has found out and any guesses for who it was...and how that said person will take it...
Anyway, please review to tell me what you thought of it :D
