Chapter 3

Jeff looked nervously at his shirt. He and Nick were going on their first date tonight. Nick had planned it, and wouldn't tell Jeff anything. He just said to look nice. Jeff was wearing a deep red button up shirt, and his favorite pair of black jeans. The ones that he knew Nick loved, of course. He was just finishing his hair when there was a knock on the door of his dorm. He opened it, and all concious thought left. Nick stood there in a nice blue button up, and black slacks. He had on a pair of nice dress shoes, and his hair was perfectly styled. But what really got Jeff was the boquet of roses in his hand.

"Nicky!" he said, speechless.

Nick smiled, "These are for you Jeffy." Jeff took the flowers blushing, profusely.

"You didn't have to Nicky." he said.

"I know, but I wanted to." Nick said, smiling lovingly at Jeff. Jeff blushed.

"I love you, Nicky." he said, quietly.

"I love you too." Nick said. He kissed Jeff sweetly, and they set off down the hall.

Ten minutes later they pulled into the parking lot of the fanciest restraunt in town. Jeff's jaw dropped.

"Nicky! We can't eat here!" he said.

Nick smiled at Jeff. "I talked to my dad, and he was so happy we finally got together that he said he'd treat us to dinner here."

Jeff's jaw dropped. Nick's dad was paying for them to eat here! They got out of the car, and walked towards the door.

"I can't believe this!" Jeff gushed. Nick smiled at his boyfriend lovingly.

"Calm down, baby, or they'll kick us out." Jeff stopped bouncing, but the sparkle never left his eyes.

The rest of the evening the boys spent just enjoying each other's company. They arrived back at Dalton just in time for lights out. They were met at the door by Headmaster Welsh.

"We were back before lights out, Headmaster." Nick said defensively, not wanting to get in trouble. The Headmaster laughed. "Don't worry Nicholas. You and Jeffery are completely fine. I just wanted to talk to you two. We have two new students coming. They are going to take the second bed in your room, since I get the feeling it isn't exactly being used by you two." he shot them a look, as both Nick and Jeff blushed. They are part of the Witness Protection Program. Around Dalton they are to be called Darren and Chris. Their real names are Kurt and Blaine."

"Why are they in Witness Protection?" Jeff asked.

"Well, Blaine is very special, like both of you are, and has the carrieer gene." the Headmaster said, "His however is currently active, unlike yours. Unless you boys have something to tell me?" Nick and Jeff blushed again, shaking their heads. The headmaster nodded. "Alright. They will be arriving on Monday. I expect you boys to show them around, and get to know them. They could use some friends." Nick and Jeff nodded.

"Good Night, boys." The headmaster said, walking away.

Jeff and Nick went up to their room.

"Do you think they'll be nice?" Jeff asked.

"I'm sure they'll be great, baby." Nick said, placing a sleepy kiss on Jeff's temple. Jeff cuddled into Nick, laying his head so he could hear the brunette's heartbeat just right. He sighed, contentedly.

"Love you Nicky." he said.

"Love you too Jeffy." Nicky said, and both boys drifted off to sleep.
