Chapter 6
"How my heart stumbled into someone so kissable, huggable, loveable, unbelieveable..." Jovian sang as he trailed off and hummed the songs tune. The knife in his hands slid flawlessly through the large potato that he was currently cuting into wedges, May stood a few paces away working the meat so it would come out tender. The kitchen was a lit with the sun as it shown through the windows, the sky was beginning to turn pink. May's eyes flickered towards him, as he continued to hum, and use the knife like it was first nature.
"You know how to use a knife really well." she said, Jovian almost dropped the knife he was so shocked, he had completely forgot May was there. "Whoa jumpy aren't ye" she chuckled, Jovian's cheeks dusted with an embarrased blush.
"Sorry" he said as he continued to cut potatos. May smiled, he was so polite, she was glad Thomas met someone like this, he never really met anyone that liked him before, she just hopped the things Thomas has done in the past would drive this young man away, he seems to be doing good, Thomas has changed some what.
"No need to be sorry, so where did you learn to use a knife so effortlessly?" she asked again.
"Oh! In high school I took up Cooking, they teach you some really interesting stuff in that class" he said and even chuckled a little. May smiled, he seemed to really like the class, that wasn't something you see everyday in men, he certainly was different. She was about to open her mouth again when the door opened. The two turned and were staring at Thomas.
"Welcome back Thomas" said Jovian as he smiled up at the tall man, Thomas nodded back, May smiled at the two as they interacted, her smile widened when she saw the light in Thomas' eye that seemed to be present when Jovian was around. Then she saw it, confusion in his eyes, and also she blinked was that sorrow? What had caused this?
"Hey Thomas after dinner, do you want to come outside with me? There's something amazing happening tonight and I want to show you" Jovian said. Thomas nodded and Jovian smiled. It was a day ago, that Thomas stayed with Jovian till he slept, a day since Riley tried something, a day since Jovian kissed and saw Thomas face. Jovian noticed the tension in his shoulders, Jovian didn't suspect anything about it, he just thought that Thomas was uncomfortable from the day before, he would too, it someone for the first time in your life liked you, he should know he's been there. Soon the sun was down and the Hewitt's, Jovian and Riley were seated at the table, Jovian ate fast, he has since Riley came to stay at the house about a day ago. May didn't understand it, Hoyt did tho he learned alot about there past today, that he was ready for there plan which will be commencing tomorrow, he almost smiled he was so excited. His eyes flashed towards Riley and his eyes caught the young mans. Riley nodded to him, he had to admit, this Hoyt character certainly was interesting, even dare he say handsome, he couldn't deny the attraction he felt to the dark hearted man. Oh the fun they would have tomorrow. Jovian sat next to Thomas at the table, his shoulders stiff. He wanted out of here quickly, Riley always gave him the creeps, even when they were dating, he just didn't know why until it happened. His green eyes clouded with memories.
Green eyes gazed at the man across the resturant, he was laughing with his friends, Jovian ducked his head as they other man caught him watching. a soft blush covered his cheeks, he heard the creaking off the chair in front of him move, he looked up and his eyes widened, it was the gorgeous man.
"Hi can i sit here?" he asked, his voice was so smooth and gentle, Jovian was stupid and said yes.
----
"I love you" whispered Jovian as he rested against, Riley's chest, his head rised with each breath he took in.
"Love you too" he said, Jovian never noticed the dark look pass through Riley's eyes, neither did he notice the slight change in the mans voice.
----
Jovian held his cheek, tears fell from his green eyes, he stared up at the man he loved with disbelief. A snear made itself a home on Riley's face.
"Why?" Jovian whispered. Riley laughed.
"You actually thought i loved you, please you aint even worth the dirt i walk on" he said. "You were just another piece of ass i wanted to break!" he said. His laugh rang through Jovians mind, and his heart and world shattered.
-----
Jovain jumped when he felt a hand clamp down on his shoulder. He turned his head fast, he calmed when he saw the hand belong to Thomas, he smiled at the concern that shown through the practically silent mans eyes. He shook his head and stood up.
"We should go now so we don't miss it" he said and grabbed Thomas' hand and tried to drag him out of the dining room. He didn't have to work very hard, Thomas whole heartedly replied. Riley, Hoyt and May watched them walk from the room, May had concern etched on her face, but Riley and Hoyt had the exact opposite. They glared, and they glared hard. Hoyt saw how Thomas complied so willingly to Jovian, the boy wouldn't beable to complete the task he assigned the boy, he was too smitten with the rotten city boy.
Jovian sighed when they were out of the house, his shoulders un tensed and he seemed to relax after he took a large breath of the fresh air, he paused for a minute, it was going to rain sometime tonight hopefully not for awhile he really want to show Thomas something before the clouds set in, he just hoped it started sooner then later, his eyes traveled the skies and to the east he saw the rain clouds, they walked through the fields. Jovian just noticed the warmth that engulfed his hand, he blushed and dropped the hand he was holding.
"Sorry" he said and sighed " sorry about zoning out back there, i just thought of somethings i wish to forget, and i'm sorry for just dragging you out of there, i just couldn't stand stay there with him in the room." he said and looked towards the ground. Thomas looked at Jovian, and he completely understood what Jovian was saying and where he was coming from. Thomas glanced down then looked away, his hand inched towards Jovians and he grasped it. Thomas hopped this was one way to comfort Jovian. Jovian was startled and looked towards Thomas but he was looking away, Jovian smiled and looked before him at the path a head. They reached the small circle of lush green grass. they took a seat and just sat there. Thomas was looking at the ground, and he never noticed the light show going on above his head. Jovian looked towards the sky and gasped, it was starting, he looked towards Thomas wondering if he noticed but he didn't.
"Thomas look!" he said pointing towards the meteor shower. Thomas looked and was amazed never in his life had he seen such a thing. "This is what i wanted to show you" Jovian said. "Did you know if you make a wish on a shoting star, it will come true?" he asked, Thomas looked at him and shook his head in a negitive way. "Really? well make a wish, and don't tell me what it is or it won't come true! I'll even do it" he said, he released Thomas' hand and glasped them together, he bowed his head, Thomas copied him. "Star light, star bright, have this wish i wish tonight" Jovian said before he closed his eyes and made his wish. I wish nothing bad happens while Riley' here. he opened his eyes, and looked towards Thomas a smile crossed his lips as he watched the young man make his wish, his eyes opened.
Thomas opened his eyes and looked towards Jovian only to notice the other man staring at him. He quickly looked away, a light blush came to his cheeks but was lost beneath the leather mask that adorned his face. He couldn't help the nervous flutter of butterflies in his stomach. He wondered if he was sick, he never felt something this strong in all his life. Not even when he was a kid, when he had that crush on Patty Pinttle, a girl everyone fancied in grade school, she ended up dead a few years later, murdered in the hamptons of New York, before he met Jovian he would have been jealous that someone other then him had killed him, but not anymore, right now he felt that since Jovian came to stay with them that no ones opinion mattered well except for Jovians of coarse, tho he didn't know why, he probably didn't want Jovian to think anything bad of him. Jovian smiled. He looked so cute lost in thought. He never noticed the gray clouds that covered the sky he was to busy staring at the man beside him. And the first drop of rain fell on the pair. Jovian looked up, just as the clouds opened up and released there tears. Thomas stood up to get out of the rain, but Jovian pulled him back down. Thomas stared at him in confusion.
"Its just a little rain, it wont hurt any, and beside i dont want to go yet" he said looking back towards the house "Not yet, in while" he said, Thomas nodded. Jovian smiled turned his face up and sighed, it felt nice. He felt at piece, his long hair plastered to his face, and the cowboy hat fell off his head when he looked towards the clouds. Jovian opened his eyes and looked at Thomas who sat staring ahead of him he almost had a lonely look to him, and so Jovian did something so daring it wasn't him, that seemed to be happening more and more. Jovain crawled into Thomas' lap, and hugged him. Thomas was startled as the cold rain was replaced by heat his arms instictively wrapped around Jovian's thin frame. Jovian thought back to the song he had hummed and sang some parts of, this morning. Thomas certainly was kissable, huggable, loveable, and unbelieveable. Jovian's heart sweld, he loved this man, he wanted to tell him, but he didn't want his heart to be broken again. He should be glad he wasn't acting nervous and stuttering around him, that would would be a sure sign, minus the kiss and the dependance yesterday. He wondered what Thomas thought of him. Thomas looked at the top of Jovians head, and he made up his mind, there was no way he could harm a hair on his head, if Hoyt or Riley touched him, he would kill them, unconciously his arms tightened around the lean young man, and he sighed, he was happy, and he didn't want it to end. The two sat in the rain for hours before they got up and walked back to the house, both unaware of the happenings of tomorrow.
