Chapter 5

A/N This is where they actually kiss. Ooooooooooooooooooooh. 3

Nathan thought hard. They were real. They had feelings for each other. They liked each other, but it wasn't love, no. Not yet it wasn't.

Simon suddenly appeared in front of him.

"JESUS!"Nathan yelled, jumping backwards.

"Sorry."

"It's alright."

"Did I scare you?" Simon questioned with a smirk.

"pfft...no." Simon raised an eyebrow.

"Okay, fine. You fucking scared me. How long have you been standing there anyway?"

"I haven't been standing, I've been sitting."

"Fine. How long have you been sitting there then?"

"I don't know, maybe an hour."

"Why?"

Simon couldn't really tell Nathan it was because he liked watching him. Was that the sort of thing couples can do? Having no experience in the field, Simon didn't know.

"Okay, I don't want you to freak out or whatever, but remember that day I got to the community centre really early and we just talked?"

"Yeah, yeah I remember."

"Well, you thought I'd just gotten there early but the truth is, I'd been there the whole night, watching you." Simon was blushing now, he couldn't believe he'd just told Nathan that.

"But why?"

"Because I liked you. Because I've always liked you and now I like you even more."

Nathan smiled. Simon was glad he hadn't freaked out.

"I like you too."

"And you're not freaked out? You're not going to call me a pervert or whatever?"

"I guess it's a little strange. But mostly, it's just cute."

"Cute?"

"Yeah, it's adorable." Simon waited for the mocking tone he knew so well. But it didn't come. And that's when Simon leant forward and kissed Nathan, properly this time.

He didn't pull away when Nathan deepened the kiss, he kisses back. Nathan held onto the back of Simon's head like a lifeline. And Simon ran his hands through Nathan's hair. Their kiss only ended when they needed to breathe.

"Fuck oxygen." Nathan said, determined to get back to kissing Simon.

"Easy for you to say, you're immortal." Replied Simon, but pretty soon his lips were back on Nathan's.

Simon heard the door of the community centre open and saw Kelly walk in, but he didn't stop kissing Nathan.

Kelly gasped when she saw them.

"Guys! Guys stop!" Neither of them paid any attention to her apart from Nathan sticking his middle finger up.

When all five of the ASBOs were there, it was Simon who pulled away, he seemed embarrassed that they had all watched.

Alisha started clapping. "I'm honestly surprised that they kept going that long without breathing."

Nathan laughed, before lying down on his camp mattress and pulling Simon down too.

"You too should get ready, we have crap to clean." Kelly said, clearly not as amused by the situation as Alisha was.

"Alright, you spoilsports. Come on, Barry." He pulled Simon to his feet and dragged him by the hand downstairs.

A/N I'm afraid I must end this here. Because it's gonna get shittier and shittier. So I'll stop before it gets too awful.
