Sorry for the late update again this is my first time doing this and it's actually a lot harder than it looks. Things are moving a bit slow I don't want to rush anything between these two I kind of want to mellow into this and share and exciting experience. Enjoy !
Jeremy POV
Lockwood Mansion, I thought I would never step foot in this place again and here I am with Tyler. Out of everyone in Mystic Falls really? As if things weren't strange enough in this town already. Ugh that reminds me, I should text Elena or Jenna. **I'm out doing a project for school, don't worry im fine** I probably should have placed a little more information in that text but if I tell them i'm with Tyler they would probably just start worrying and calling and i didn't need any of that tonight. I look over and Tyler for whatever reason, looks pale or queasy. "Are you okay man? You look a little pale." He looks at me strangely as he exits the car. "Yeah, I just haven't eaten, i'll grab something inside." I get a text, and its from Elena, I don't bother opening it. As we head in we hear someone moving about. "Oh hey honey, perfect timing, can you help me get some bags in the car i'm running late. " Tyler's mother stops in her tracks. "Oh hi there I hadn't realized Tyler had someone with him, im Mrs. Lockwood" I shake her hand and she gives me a smile that seemed to hide something. Tyler proceeds to grab her bags and I decide to help to make the situation a little less awkward. "Thanks a lot for your help uhh." "Jeremy," I assist. "Have fun, there's food that I ordered in the kitchen help yourselves." We turn and head inside.
Tyler POV
FUCK. Of course she would be running late and I don't need her input into who im with and what i'm doing. Not that it matters anyways because its fucking Jeremy but whatever. I'm sure she's going to tell father tomorrow to question me and i'll get the "hang with trash, end up trash" talk. Anyways she's gone and I need to defuse this awkward tension. "Want anything to drink, you should probably eat some too, you look like you haven't eaten." I grab two plates and look over at Jeremy and see him awkwardly take a seat. Jeremy looks kind of nervous I can't help but think that I am the reason for this, I hold back a smile. "Soda or Juice? I also have water or.." "Water." I toss a bottle at him and see him open it and almost completely down it. "Thirsty much?" I grin. "Yeah I was jogging a bit before meeting up, probably a little dehydrated." he looks embarrassed. He needs to relax some. We eat a little and head upstairs. "Listen i'm going to take a shower set up or whatever."
Jeremy POV
"Don't drown," I fail at restraining a laugh at his reaction. "Whatever man, don't get too excited that i'm showering now," his words almost an invitation. I watch him walk into his personal bathroom and close the door. I pull out my sketch book and notice that all I have in here are sketches of random guys that I've drawn. He'll get a kick out of those, i'm not hiding anything anyways, if he finds out i'm into guys so be it. Tonight's going easier than I thought it would. He's not being a total dick but then again there's the part where we have to sketch each other. A few minutes pass and I get another text from Jenna this time. **Jeremy, Elena says you're out working on a project I just want to make sure you're okay. Text me back 3** I roll my eyes, **I'm fine i'll be home tonight and i'll explain later. It's just a project** I hear the shower turn off, and immediately get this rush of energy, what is going on with me?
Tyler POV
I step out of the shower and go to put on my clothes but I decide to see what reaction I can get from Gilbert. I toss my clothes in a corner and wrap a towel around my waist. I look into the mirror at my reflection and notice that all the football training and workouts over the Summer paid off. I rub my hair a bit and walk out the bathroom. Jeremy's eyes widen as I walk out and kind of goes into a trance. "Take a picture Gilbert," I grin. He looks transfixed and blushes a bit. "Sorry" he stammers. I reach into my closet to grab some clothes on a shelf and then head into the bathroom to dress. Nice one Tyler, I can't help but feel cocky. Maybe this whole project thing isn't such a bad idea. I walk out into my room and reach for my sketchbook. I'm pretty good at drawing not that anyone ever cared anyways. I become a little excited that i'm able to showcase my work. Gilbert is on the floor watching me stroll around my room. I take my seat in front of him, possibly a little too close but I don't care, and he doesn't seem to either. "Ready?" a grin splashes across Jeremy's face.
Please Review ! :)
