I sat in my room, avoiding the message icon that was flashing on my phone. It's been almost a week since I had babysat for the Morgan's, where Mr. Morgan had thrown himself at me… I shiver at the thought and roll over, tossing my phone onto the other side of my bed before grabbing it, finally clicking on the icon.
"Hello Mr. Weir, it's Kathy Morgan. I know you've been busy and this is kind of last minute, but I was hoping you could, well, come babysit for me again? I have to go away starting Friday night and won't be back until early Monday morning. I know you have school on Monday, but you're welcome to stay at our house and leave for school. My husband can even drive if you'd like. And I can pay you triple your normal rate in case money is a problem. Please call me back at least by Thursday if possible. Thank you."
I looked at my calendar, seeing that tomorrow was Thursday. I know I need to respond to her soon, but I can't help but be worried.
I mean, the dude had kissed me! What can I do? Can I really go back there? Can I spend an entire weekend at his house? I rolled over onto my back, placing my pillow over my head.
Throwing the pillow to the side, I get up and head to the living room, where my Grandma is reading.
"Gramma? Can I ask something?"
"Well of course dear," she tells me, closing her book and smiling at me. "What is it?"
"…Mrs. Morgan wants me to come babysit for the whole weekend and up to Monday morning." She looks surprised but still smiles.
"If you want to, then you can. You're almost an adult Benny. You can make your own decisions."
"I just feel uncomfortable, being there for a whole weekend."
"Benny, is there something you're not telling me?"
"..No. Of course not." She nodded and reached over, grasping my hand.
"If you want to go for a whole weekend, then go. It's okay with me." I nod at her and get up, going back to my room and grabbing my phone, quickly calling back the number.
"Hello?"
"Mrs. Morgan? It's Benny Weir."
"Mr. Weir. I'm assuming you got my message?"
"Yes ma'am. And… I can babysit all weekend."
"Great! Come by Friday after school?"
"I'll be there."
…
I'm shaking as I leave my house on Friday, a duffel bag of clothes and necessities in hand. I walk slowly, the closer I get to the house the more dread I feel.
I can feel it, deep in the pit of my stomach, that he wasn't going to be gone all weekend. Only her.
I would be alone with him.
All weekend.
I don't know what to expect; I still don't feel like I'm gay, but is that going to stop him?
He wants me; that much is obvious.
Before I know it, I'm there, on their doorstep. I take in a deep breath and knock.
He opens it, giving me a grin worth of the Chesire cat. I nod at him and force a smile back.
"Mr. Morgan."
"Benny," he tells me, grabbing me by my free hand and pulling me towards him. "I'm glad that you were able to come." I know my face is red from a blush as I nod.
"I imagine you are." He grins at me and brings a hand up to my face.
"I have all weekend planned out." I blush at his words, wondering what he has planned.
"What-"
"Is he here?" Mr. Morgan groans and lets go of me, leading me in.
"Yes dear."
"Mr. Weir."
"Mrs. Morgan." She smiles briefly at me, and realize she's dressed for work – a crisp business suit and light heels.
"You know the drill. Thank you, for doing this for me. It means a lot."
"I'm sure it does. Thank you for asking me." She nods at me and I catch her eyes briefly flash to her husband before she looks back at me.
"I'm going to say goodbye to Julie, and then I have to go. Have a fun weekend."
"I'll try my best."
"I'll help with that," Mr. Morgan whispers in my ear, making me jerk back and away. He frowns at me and I shake, moving to sit on the couch. "Let me show you to the guest room." I nod and follow him to a small room, right next to his office. "This will be your room for the weekend. Unless… things pop up," he says, clearly amused with himself. I get the reference and step away, nodding.
"Uh-huh… what's the doors?" He grins again and turns to face me.
"One's the closet, one's the bathroom, and one is connected to my office." I open my mouth at this, but no words come to me. He nods and moves to me.
"It'll be okay Benny. Just trust me." I shake my head as he moves to run his fingers through my hair and kiss my forehead. "Don't be scared."
"Ethan? Mr. Weir? I'm leaving now." He steps away from me and gives a tender look before leaving the room. I move to sit on the bed, thinking about what he said.
'Don't be scared.'
Yeah, like that's going to calm me down.
…
I was sitting in Julie's room, watching her sleep ,when I finally began to get tired; it was nearing midnight now, and I hadn't been out of the room much due to shot nerves.
"She'll sleep through the night. You don't have to stay in here." I turn to see Mr. Morgan leaning against the doorway, giving me that tender grin again.
"I'll grab a monitor and go to bed then," I say, grabbing a monitor off the charger and moving to the door. He moves so I can walk out, him following me. I go to the room I'm supposed to sleep in, about to open the door, when he grabs my arm.
"Benny. Can we talk?" I look at him, not seeing the man that's been hitting on me and kissed me, but a guy who looks like he honestly wants to talk.
I find myself nodding and allowing him into the room with me.
What did I just do?
…
Hmm, what's Mr. Morgan got planned now?
Hmmmmmmm...
Thanks for reading and see ya'll soon.
