Chapter Three: Cute Freshman & Being Asked Out!
John shifted uneasily as they drove; Ronan's car was nice a shiny black hummer; he was sat bare assed in the guy's car and it was so embarrassing "Why are you fidgeting" Ronan murmured.
"Oh uh n nothing" John stuttered looking away.
Ronan smirked "Nervous" he drawled.
John snapped "Oh well im naked in a stranger's car and I was just humiliated by some idiot on my first day at my new school; and now I am being driven home by my Godfather's star student and most popular guy in school wearing only his letterman jacket".
Ronan chuckled "Calm down" he murmured.
"CALM DOWN" John hollered; "Im NAKED in a stranger's car".
Ronan rolled his eyes "Well im Ronan Dex; feel any less awkward" he asked with a smirk.
John sighed and slumped down in his seat "A little" he admitted with a small shy smile.
"So you know Mr and Mrs O'Neill" he asked.
John nodded "Yeah there my Godparents they've been looking after me since My Mother passed away" he murmured.
"What about you dad" Ronan asked offhandedly.
John shrugged "He didn't want to be in my life" he mumbled "He lives with his new wife and two new kids in Paris" he added offhandedly.
"I don't have parents either" Ronan murmured "My Mother died when I was born and my Father I never knew him".
John was surprised that this guy was even talking to him; arriving at home John smiled nervously "Do you want a drink or something" he asked fidgeting with his fingers.
Ronan nodded "Yeah well I need my jacket back after you've changed" he murmured following the cute boy into the house.
"Maria" John called out; there was no answer "Oh she must be shopping" he mumbled quickly scampering off upstairs; "Go ahead and make your-self comfortable I'll be back in a minute" he called rushing off. Ronan watched with a glint in his eyes as that sexy little ass swayed as the boy ran off upstairs.
Once John came back down stairs wearing a pair of black skinny jeans and a loose grey sweat shirt; "What would you like to drink"?
Ronan shrugged "Whatever is fine" was his simple reply.
John nodded and pulled out two cans of coke "Is this okay" he replied.
Ronan nodded distractedly; John handed him his jacket back as he sat down "Thank you" he murmured quietly cheeks tinting pink.
"It's fine really" Ronan replied "So what's your name kid?".
John snapped up to look at the tall boy "Oh uh John Shepard" he explained.
"Ronan Dex" the tall senior replied.
John nodded "I know my friend Rodney told me about you" he explained quietly.
"Oh yeah I don't remember anyone called Rodney" Ronan thought about it.
John smiled weakly "Rodney McKay he's really smart a second year".
"Oh McKay yeah I know McKay whiney pudgy little guy" Ronan grumbled.
John laughed "Yeah that's Rodney" he said with a grin.
"Always hanging around the Scottish guy who likes helping the nurse and is really interested in being a doctor" Ronan asked?
John nodded "Yeah that's him".
Ronan nodded opening his drink, he raised an eyebrow "Does that belong to Mr O'Neil" he asked pointing at the sweat shirt.
John flushed "Uh yeah" he replied; "I live alone so Jack said that if anything ever went wrong I could call him anytime" he replied "Don't tell him I have it, Jack's kind of like a dad to me" the boys cheeks tinted pink "I kind of stole it form him" he admitted shyly.
Ronan smiled at the adorable boy "Your kind of adorable" he murmured.
John's eyes widened and his cheeks heated even further "W what" he stuttered.
Ronan rolled his eyes "No need to get all nervous on me again" he chuckled "I said you were adorable" he repeated.
John didn't know whether to smile or run away from the tall senior "Uh… thank you" he said unsurely.
"If you're worried if im pulling some sort of cruel joke on you" Ronan asked "Im not, im Gay" he added nonchalantly.
John smiled more sincerely this time "Oh okay" he replied softly.
Ronan grinned "What are you doing this afternoon" he asked?
"Oh uh nothing I'll catch a lift home with my friends and uh probably help Maria cook dinner" John explained softly.
"Well how would you feel about going out with me" Ronan asked.
John blinked at the taller boy "Really" he blurted out, "Oh uh I'm mean really are you s sure with m me; im not the sort of person people like to be friends w with" he stuttered.
Ronan smirked "I don't want to be friends with you" he said; John's tentative smile faded into a sad look; a look which Ronan wanted to erase immediately "Im asking you out on a date" he added hastily.
John looked astonished "A d date" he squeaked?
Ronan nodded chuckling slightly "Yeah a date, I want you to go on a date with me" he replied.
John grinned, his entire face lighting up "Oh uh y yeah s sure" he stuttered.
Ronan smiled "Okay well we better get back then" he replied.
John nodded grabbing his zip up hoodie and following the senior back to his car; there drive back was silent but not uncomfortably so. Once arriving back at school Ronan left for football practise while John went to his self-defence class.
