Chapter 8

Songs of Love and Misconstrued Feelings.

JUSTIN DASHED THROUGH THE CLUTTERED HALLWAY WITH BLINDING speed. The expression of realization and nervousness and excitement filled Justin's prominent red cheeks as he searched for the one person he wanted to find the most. Zeke. He had finally realized the obvious facts that apparently he was the only one not understanding, and all though it was still confusing to Justin himself, he still felt the urgent need to talk to Zeke today. Justin zoomed past the first hallway by math class and science, swiftly darting to peer into the science lab to see if Zeke was there, as he was always there most of his free time. Such a nerd, but yet..a cute nerd. Justin Had never thought of him that way before but now that he was, though it was different, he didn't mind it. In fact he was kinda taking a liking to it. Sadly as Justin looked through the smudged glass window of the science lab door, he found Mr. Hallmound and three of his prized students (The ones that Zeke usually was in) but strange enough no Zeke. He could of sworn he would see him there with his cute red cheeks and reverberant smile as he gleefully dissected a frog or a pig heart. Justin was apposed to that sort of thing, not because of his animal rights belief, but because it made him sick. Yet the thought of watching Zeke dissect one was a lot less sickening.

With a sigh Justin gave a quick wave to Mr. H when he spotted him and in a flash ran off again to attempt to find Zeke. He was determined to find him before the beginning of the 3rd period bell..which was in ten minutes! A sweat drop fell down from Justin's Forehead as he thought of the time restriction, though fought to keep his mind off it. He was just determined to find Zeke and talk to him no matter whatever it took.

Justin then darted down the next hallway which was the English class and the history class hall and sadly he wasn't in there either. Justin went down 4 hallways all total until finally he decided to check the last place he decided that Zeke would be...the Music room and the art room hallway. Sure Zeke was artistic but they constantly had rants and heated discussions about the difference between art and science and which one bettered society today and through out history. Of course science won but that was just because of both of their undying love for it. Justin was sure he wouldn't find him here anyways, but with a bowl of sorrow and an effort of last hope, he checked anyways. As he turned the corner to the hallway, his heart jumped out of his chest and did a double no TRIPLE back flip double spin landing gracefully on the ground, for his eyes caught the glimpse of the beautiful and absolutely stunning Zeke Danforth.

His eyes sparkled with joy and delight as he feasted upon the soft delicate features of Zekes velveting silk slightly pale skin, his rustically defined face, dreamy subterranean sapphire blue eyes and amazingly adorable and easily noticeable dimples. This sent a fantastic smoldering sensation down Justin's hole body and he couldn't help but to let out a luminous shining smile. Just everything about Zeke made him feel like a sleeping child on Christmas day and boy were his presents great! He just couldn't wait to unwrap him erm I mean them. As Justin stood their gazing at the luscious pure image of divinity that floated their gracefully putting back his books in his locker, along came, like a bad canker sore on a first date, Millie Shouthimer his former bratty crush.

She stood their with her plastic face and washed out barbie doll fake blond hair as she gave her usual expression of disgust and distaste, as though she ate week old baloney.

"Wow Justin, just so entranced by my beauty that your speechless, or are you just to ugly to say anything?" She spat, prodding Justin with her dull whit.

Justin sighed as he saw Millie Appear. He had realistic what Zeke meant by plastic and ...trashy! How in the world did he even like this girl? Was he really that desperate?

He spat at Millie's rehearsed line.

"Pssh no Millie, actually I'm too busy to play with ugly Barbie dolls right now so could you do me a favor and do something unintelligible like talk to your friends about facial cream and plastic surgery or something" Obviously Justin wasn't so swell at comebacks but he was sure that he was getting better. He said this while he peered over Millie's shoulder trying to get a better view of Zeke. Obviously He hadn't noticed him yet. Her eyes bulged with shock though still with that underlying distasteful expression on her expensive face.

"Uh! What the freak did you just call me, little boy?" She asked though it was more of her exclaiming it.

Justin, now amazingly numb to Millie's trashy beauty felt a large blast of strength and confident bubbling up inside him, that he had never felt before. This inspired Justin to stick up to Millie and finally get back at her for all the years of pain, torture and embarrassment that he put him through. So with that as he was about to walk away from her, he turned around with a sly look on his face and aimed his attention at Millie as he spoke.

"Ok first Im not a little boy, Im a Man. And Second Im Gay and third of all, Im glad Im gay because now I have a nicer excuse not to sleep with you other then because your an ugly, trashy, slutty, personalityless anorexic bitch who's breath smells like a cow who ate his own shit, which has a very close resemblance to your face. Though the cow dung is a bit more attractive and is a LOT more intelligible in a conversation. "

Justin shot back with his sharp words with a surprisingly witty and entertaining edge. While he did that he did a perfect Z snap and turned his back on her and walked away. All Millie could do was stand there and staggered the inconceivable fact that someone actually didn't like her. The best she could do was utter an "Ah!" as her mouth hung wide open, still not believing what she just saw.

Justin felt a superb feeling of distinguished triumph and a gratuitous amount of self confidence that wasn't there before. He just wanted to break out dancing down the hallway. Though he kept his cool composure for that would ruin the effect. Though as he was walking away from her, he suddenly got a spark of inspiration and dashed back up to Millie's face.

He shown a deviant smile as he turned to Millie and rose his finger teasingly.

"Btw your lip gloss is SO not glossy" He said with a sassy fierceness that resembled any diva in show business. How in the world was this guy ever straight?! The thought came to mind but instead justin decided to bask in the gaping reaction that Millie gave. He left her presence with a smug smile. He then remembered the reason he had came here. To look for Zeke! And as he switched his gaze to Zeke's locker,(Duh he forgot to look around Zeke's locker) he found that Zeke wasn't there!

Darn! It seems that he must of noticed Justin talking to Millie and ran away. Oh shoot he probably thought I was flirting with her again. Man Now I know why Zeke hates her so much. Agh wait of course! He is jealous! Thats one of the reasons. Not just cause she is a skanky lifesucking whore bitch who no one can stand!

Justin arrived at Zeke's Locker, and seeing 3 books on the ground he picked them up. It seemed that Zeke must of dropped them on his way out. Justin held them in his hand as he read the titles off nonchalantly like a list. "Modern Science and Technology, Advanced Physics, Song Book, Personal Journal.." He stopped when heard those two words, personal journal and song book. His eyes blazed with shock and curiosity and he instantly blasted through his song book, reading at the speed of sound. For he knew it was not possible to do anything at the speed of light.

He read each word with precious delicate observation as she sweet and heart-aching word hugged his very being. It was so beautiful and amazing. He never knew some of the talent that Zeke withheld. Why hadn't he ever shared this with him before?

He sang the words out softly...

Your Blues eyes, The Sunshine,

Fills your room as we awake.

Your Soft Breath, I feel your hands upon my chest.

Your Warm Skin, your touching, Feels like Divinity To me,

Your Sweet Caress, as you undress

Makes my heart Tremble its make feel on fire.

Makes me wanna stop and think, that

Nothing could be better.

The words met up with the beautiful and enchanting singing coming from the room behind him, The music room. Justin perched a brow curiously though then continued to sing as each of his words intertwined with the musical voice coming from the music room in perfect harmonized unison.

Holding me so ever close, Dont even think of letting go,

I just wanna be by your side,

They sang together slowly and softly as Justin crept toward the door of the music room singing each word with a enriched passion.

I dont care how its gonna be, Ill just go for the ride.

Holding me a I catch my breath, Hearing those words you said.

The door just slightly cracked open. Justin entered the room unnoticed he continued singing. To his amusement there he saw where the beautiful music was coming from. Zeke was sitting on top of a stool and playing an exquisitely crafted soft maple acoustic guitar, his fingers dancing on the cords like angels fluttering beyond the heavenly clouds. The sight was breath taking and justin couldn't help to shine a warm smile upon his face. He continued to sing sweetly, matching his velvety smooth deep rock ballad voice with Zeke's stunning deep melodic voice. It reminded him of a combination of John Mayor and a lighter Josh Groban.

I dont really care about the next day, just let us drift away..

Let us drift away...

They gave a beautiful show stopping faux finish as the song ended. Justin's locked his gaze on Zeke's blue eyes and for a moment it felt like fireworks were blasting into the air between their gaze. Justin felt a deep comforting warmth as he stared at Zeke for those pure 8 seconds. Though Zeke realized what was happening and snapped the gaze in half as he looked away in a embarrassed surprise and tried to hide the guitar. A rosy red blue appeared burning up his cheeks. God he was so hot when he was blushing.

"No dont put it away! I loved it. It was beautiful..." Justin said as he blissfully hung on to ever word of the last sentence.

Zeke struggled to look away from Justin though finally his self control gave away and he searched Justin's face. The eye contact made even Justin blush.

"Really you liked it? You don't think its...stupid?" Zeke asked shyly. Justin had never seen Zeke like this.

"Yeah are you kidding I loved it! It was amazing. Zeke I never knew you had so much talent. Why did you ever hide it from me. Its amazing!"

Justin complimented Zeke as he slowly inched forward towards Zeke. Zeke whipped his gaze back to the floor.

"Oh...well I never thought of it that way, I thought you know, it would be stupid and girly.." Zeke still didn't give Justin eye contact. Apparently there was an immensely intriguing spot on the floor that Zeke couldn't bare to take his attention off.

"Girly, stupid? No way this is awesome! Why this is like the coolest and awesomest I have ever seen you before! You were totally rocking that guitar. And yes I used a word that is not in the dictionary so you know that I'm enthused about it!" Justin said stepping up onto the first dull grey carpeted step of the music room, getting closer to Zeke. Zeke still didn't look away but his blushing was getting even more intense.

"Really you think so?" Zeke repeated while stuttering.

"Like I said, the most amazingly awesomest ever! That song was kick ass and so sweet...and simply beautiful" He complimented as he soon climbed up on top of the dark mahogany desk that stood right next to the light maple wood stool that Zeke was sitting on. This made Zeke blush even more intensely and he struggled even more to not peer into Justin's eyes.

"Thats..cool. More beautiful then..Millie?" A slight hint of distain in his voice.

Justin crept closer looking at Zeke, then drawing Zeke's face closer with his hand resting on Zeke's cool skin. He turned Zeke's face towards him with a hand on his chin. Zeke stuttered and looked even more flustered.

"Your more beautiful then that washed out skank is ever going to be." He said softly with his velvet smooth voice.

Zeke got caught in Justins gaze for awhile, sharing the heat between their faces until jerked away from Justin's grip.

"Your just saying that to apologize" Zeke excused.

Justin reached out to place his large hand on Zeke's warm rose petal cheek. He gaze soft and comforting.

"No, I really mean it Zeke your beautiful! Have you looked in the mirror lately?" Justin joked with a sweet manner to it.

A hopeful smile was growing on Zeke's face until it died away as though it was stabbed in the heart.

Finally Zeke pushed Justin's hand away from his face as he quickly stood up from the stool and stomped 3 feet from Justin.

"Oh SHUT Up Justin! Seriously where are the cameras? Huh! Come on out camera crew, I just got punked! The shows over you can stop the gig Justin. You dont have to pretend to like me. Go on to your next devious plan to crush someone's hopes. Seriously Justin Im sure its something you may laugh about in the future but really? You had to make a weird poem for me AND KISS ME! For gosh sakes how heartless are you!" Zeke flared, a pained expression in his eyes.

"No Zeke I-" Justin pleaded

"Just save Justin, we all know your not of nearly as good of an actor then you think you are. Dont even try to convince me your not playing cause its obvious you are. The jokes up haha very funny you played with someone's feelings and smashed their heart all for a good joke, good job! Congratulations!" Zeke yelled back sarcastically.

Justin was shocked and surprised at Zekes reaction. He was sure that Zeke would be totally gleeful and happy when he found out about..

Wait thats it! He hadn't told him yet. But first he had to work up to it before he told him.

"Zeke I know about the thing!" Justin rose his voice as he cut in.

Zeke froze like an icy statue. His expression motionless.

"Know about..what?" Zeke asked, astonished at what Justin said.

"I know your gay" The words just barely came out of Justin's mouth. Justin looked towards Zeke's reaction, though it wasn't what he was thinking it was going to be.

Zeke's astonished frozen statue expression melted into the pained, hardened and bitter face that he was so keen to wearing now.

"Oh great thats just fanflipping fantastic. Is that what this is all about, you FINALLY find out I'm gay and you go make a freaking joke out of it. Like always! And how fucking oblivious can you be justin? The whole school knew except for you! And you have been my friend since 3rd freaking grade! So now you know and your creeped out by my gayness. Afraid that I might get a crush on you or drool over you in gym class just cause your a guy. Well don't worry I will be sure to keep my fagyness away from you Ok? So now that the jokes over why don't you go flirt with some desperate ugly girl like you always do. I have better things to do then sit around and have my emotions made a fool of. Good day!" He spat as he ranted out furiously and slammed the door in Justin's face.

Justin sat upon the desk completely gawked and not sure of what just happened. It went by so fast that justin was completely speechless. He didn't even know if it did happen. This was definitely not how he planned it to be. It was much more romantic, like a rerun of the OC. Sorta but a bit more gay.

Justin then realized what WAS happening and saw Zeke bolt out the door. He gasped. He absolutely could not let Zeke get away. At least not until he told him how he felt about him. Moments later as Zeke bashed through the door, justin quickly followed. He shot through the crowd of people as he chased Zeke. He shouted repetitively as he reached out for Zeke.

"Zeke wait up! Zeke Wait! ZEKE WAIT!"He pleaded, feeling small bulbs of tears filling his eyes. Finally after a few persistent pleads, Zeke finally replied.

"What?" Zeke said coldly and sharply as he turned around slowly, an obviously un amused expression on his face.

This was the time! This is where Justin would proclaim his undying love for Zeke. Where he would sweep Zeke away into his arms and carrying him off in the sunset. This is where he would finally say those words, "I like you" (Not I love you, not yet at least. That would be too sudden)

But as he stood their, frozen, stunned with empty words hanging onto his tongue he drew a blank. He just couldn't say it. He couldn't say those words.

He had to do something! So with all the effort he could muster up he forced out the words.

"I...I..li-" Though Justin suddenly felt a lump in his throat. It was blocking the words he desperately wanted, no needed to say to Zeke.

Zeke unimpressed by Justin's lack of words transformed his face back to the cold pained bitter expression he was wearing and before turning his back onto Justin he said this words.

"Just save it Justin, no one wants to hear your empty excuses"

Snap!

Justin could hear as those words shot through his chest like a shotgun, ripping open a wound and snapping his heart in half. Leaving nothing but emptiness left.

Justin keeled over, grabbing his chest and found himself face down on the ground, wounded and alone as Zeke just walked away, bitterly.

Justin couldn't help but to shed a stream of tears. Down on his hands and knees he wallowed. Bleeding tears of sorrow. People around him were staring at him and Zeke for they saw the display of emotion that happened he wished that they would just mind their own freaking business and get a life, but other then that Justin did not care. No in fact the only thing that he felt right now was ironically the same exact word that Zeke said. Emptiness, Nothing but Emptiness..

Justin cringed as the tears streamed down his face now more prominent.

He cried as he stood their on the ground in the middle of the school hallway, alone, cold and empty as he thought

"What the hell did I do now?"

Were the only words that could come to comfort his mind.

He truly had no idea what he had done but whatever he did, he was planning to make up for it. No matter whatever it took, he would....
