Jacob wrapped his arms around Seth's waist bringing him closer to his body. Seth let his arms rest on Jacob's shoulders as Jacob lowered him down onto his bed. Jacob straddled the younger boy's legs and used one of his hands to run it through Seth's hair, looking him directly in his eyes. Seth pecked him on the lips. Jacob grinned, responding with a passionate kiss.
Their kiss lasted forever. Seth broke it off, panting. He stared into Jacob's beautiful brown eyes. He turned his head to the side, overwhelmed by the perfection of the moment. He wished he could freeze it in time and never leave it. Jacob kissed and nibbled at his neck, lifting the hem of Seth's shirt over his head.
Jacob pulled Seth back into another kiss, Seth arched his back into the kiss. Jacob began unbuckling Seth's belt. Seth's eyes shot open wide.
"What's wrong?" Jacob stopped worried. Seth just shook his head.
"Don't you think we should get going?" Seth asked with a smirk, lightly pushing Jacob off of him.
" You okay?" Jacob asked.
"Yeah. I'm fine." Seth replied.
"Was I going too fast?" Jacob asked, tugging playfully at Seth's arm.
"No, I trust you Jake. I love you." Seth grabbed Jacob by his shoulders, forcing their lips together one more time.
Seth disappeared into his closet out of sight from Jacob and emerged a few minutes later dressed in his beach attire. A pair of short red swim trunks, sandals, and a pair of sunglasses.
"How do I look?" Seth asked gesturing to his outfit.
"Hot!" Jacob said with a giggle.
Seth blushed from the compliment. "What about you?" He asked, referencing that Jacob had not yet changed clothes.
"Oh, I didn't exactly pack anything for this. Do you have something?"
Seth frowned.
" We don't exactly wear the same size Jake."
"Oh..." Jacob said, feeling embarrassed.
" You could always go au naturel." Seth said, raising his eyebrows twice.
" Only for you." Jacob whispered in Seth's ear.
Jacob retreated from the room and returned a few minutes later dressed in a hideous pair of multi-colored swim trunks.
"What are those? Seth asked.
"They're Sam's. What's wrong with them?
"Jacob, it looks like a lion ate a parrot and then threw it back up."
"Well I think they look okay." Jacob argued.
Seth made every effort to get Jacob to change but it became clear early on that Seth would not win the battle. After double checking the lock on the door, the pair made their way to the truck that Bella 'abandoned.' The truck was run down on the outside but it surprisingly ran well. They listened to the radio in silence. Jacob kept glancing over at Seth, who was just staring in thought at the passing scenery. He averted his eyes to the road, getting lost in his own thoughts. Jacob broke the silence first.
"I think we should go on a date.. someday."
Seth perked up his head instantly.
"Really?" he asked excitedly.
"Yeah, sure. Why not? I was thinking maybe we could go and check out the new mall or catch a movie or something."
"Cool." Seth said, in a pathetic attempt to contain his excitement. In his head he was already planning out the details of their date.
For the rest of the trip the pair made small talk, something that neither of them were accustomed to. They soon arrived at the beach. Leah and Emily were seen wrapped up in conversation while everyone else frolicked in the water.
"Hey you two, ya finally made it!" Emily greeted both of them as they approached. Jacob nodded his head at both of them while Seth didn't even bother with a "hello" and instead made a beeline for the water.
"Someone's excited." Emily mumbled. Leah grimaced when she noticed Jacob's trunks.
"Blah! Where did you get those?" She asked, pretending to vomit.
"They're Sam's old trunks. What's wrong with them?" Jacob asked.
"They're hideous!" Emily interjected.
Jacob rolled his eyes. He thought they were cool so that's all that mattered. Jacob took a seat next to Leah who was sporting a designer bikini, her breast partially exposed. Jacob took notice of it but didn't feel anything.
"Jake I've been meaning to ask you. Why have you been spending so much time with Seth? You two are together every moment of the day." Leah asked.
"... ….. Seth and I are toge- best friends." Jacob caught himself.
"Oh... well that's good." Leah said, not really believing Jacob. "He's totally lying." she thought. Jacob picked up on this and became defensive. "I am not!" he shouted causing Emily to flinch.
"I'm sorry Jake but it just looks like there is something else going on between you two. Everyone's already speculating it."Jacob felt a slurry of emotions ranging from anger to fear. He wasn't ready for everyone to know about him and Seth. Telling his father was one thing but telling everyone else was a whole different ballgame. Jacob shook his head.
"Just drop it okay?" he said.
=====( ._.)====
"Seth we've been meaning to ask you." Jared began.
"What's up with you and Jake? You guys boyfriends or something?" Quil finished.
Seth didn't answer. He wasn't sure if Jacob would want everyone else to know about them.
" 'Cause it's okay if you are. We won't judge." Quil said.
Seth hesitated. "Yeah... BUT DON'T TELL HIM I SAID THAT!" Seth panicked.
"Okay okay. Chillax." Embry said rubbing Seth's shoulders.
"We won't tell." Jared said, a mischievous smile growing on his face.
Night soon fell and the pack and Emily found themselves sitting around a bonfire. The fire was roaring peacefully, the sound of crickets echoing throughout the night. It was a beautiful night. "I love this!" Emily blurted out. "Beautiful night surrounded by friends and family. Doesn't get any better." she said, pecking Sam on the lips afterwards. "Wish we could do that." Jacob whispered into Seth's ear. "We can." Seth answered back smiling. "Not here." Jacob said. Seth sighed and rolled his eyes. "Come on, lets go talk." Seth said, pulling Jacob up by his arm. "Don't you two lovebirds get lost now." Embry called out as they were walking away. Jacob raised his middle finger to him.
"They'll be fine with it you know? Why not just tell them?" Seth asked once they were out of earshot of everyone else. Jacob sighed, "I don't know. I mean do we really have to tell everyone?" Jacob asked. Seth shrugged, "We don't have to tell everyone. But don't the people who are closest to us have the right to know? Everyone's already assuming it anyway so why not just confirm it?" Jacob paused. "Okay." he said after a tense wait.
Jacob and Seth returned to the bonfire hand to hand. Jacob's knees buckled with each step. Everyone was off in individual conversations when they returned. "Hey everyone? I have something I want to tell you." Jacob said. All eyes turned to him. "Seth and I are... …. boyfriends. He imprinted on me and I accepted it." Jacob finally managed to say. There was an awkward silence. "Well no duh Black." Quil said. "Yeah it's kind of obvious Jake." Embry said. "Wasn't really hard to see." Emily said. "Obviously." Paul chimed in. Jacob's facial expression changed. "Oh... well okay then." He took a seat next to Seth. Seth smacked him on his back, "See? You were worried for nothing." he said. As the fire roared to a smoldering ember everyone drifted off to sleep. Jacob and Seth curled up in a spooning position.
