Chapter 2: Sparks

Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN DEGRASSI: THE NEXT GENERATION. SOME COMPANY IN CANADA DOES

Once the bell rang, the two boys walked down to the caf for lunch. People stared and watched as the two opposites sat, laughed, and talked, but soon lost interest.

"True story! I did cough on complete accident!" Declan exclaimed.

"While the Pope was making a speech about something you told your parent's was crap?" KC crooned.

"Come on! It wasn't my fault there was another mic that close to me!" Declan hooted.

"KC is so cute! If I could only just..."

Before Declan can get his thought finished, his lips were pressed to KC's, and the two boys interlocked in a fiery-hot kiss.

"OH MY GOD DECLAN!" Mrs. Coyne shouted.

"Wait mom I can explain!" Declan yelled as he chased after his mom.

Declan knew he was gay, he could feel it since he hit puberty. He just dated girls to cover for his homosexuality. He hadn't told his mom, his sister, his dad, or any of his friends for fear they would shun him.

K.C. was left sitting alone in the caf, tears welling up in his eyes. He felt elated when Declan's tongue was exploring his mouth, feeling along his teeth, stroking the inside of his cheek... but now he was left hollow, cold, and extremely upset. In the midst of his tears, he looks on the table to see that Declan left a note on the table before he left. In his note he said:

"K.C. if by chance you have this note then you must know that I have come out to you. I have had a lot of trouble reaching this decision but personally I must accept the fact that I am in love with you. Call/text me at (184)759-2306. I love you, I only wish I could have told you earlier before when we were in the caf. -Declan."

K.C. was not only overjoyed that he could be sure that Declan was gay, but he even got his phone number. A few weeks later and after he summed up the courage, K.C. was walking back to his mothers apartment and sent Declan a text message.

'Hey u its kc'

K.C. waited for a reply. Seconds turned to minutes, and after what seemed like years, K.C.'s phone buzzed with what seemed like an alert for a text message. K.C. unlocked his phone and tapped the screen to open the text message.

'My bad for not texting you back earlier. I see you found my message in the caf.'

'Yes I did... Declan can u call me?'

'Sure. Give me a sec.'

K.C. cheered as he read the text message. Not even a full minute later, K.C. grabbed the vibrating phone and answered it with an overly indifferent yo.

"Yo?"

"K.C. you don't know how much I've wanted to hear your voice."

"You've wanted to talk to me that badly? Wow."

"Yes I have. I can explain why it took me so long?"

"Sure, I was just about to ask."

"Well, the only reason I went out with all those girls in the first place was so that I could appease my mom. She's a bit homophobic but you can't really tell. So then once I told her that I was gay and that I was kissing you because I had a crush on you she was a little freaked out like any normal parent, but she still is going to have to get used to the idea. Then I had to tell Fiona but she said she knew for a long time, and she just wanted to see if I would come out to her. But then I had to eventually tell Holly J. about the fact that I had a change in my orientation, and then I think she thought I was bi, so she could at least have the chance of getting to stay with me, but she was more hurt and upset once I told her that I was gay. She cried for a while but I had to tell her that I had to to prevent her from getting hurt later."

K.C. fell quiet. He didn't know that Declan would have such hell over that. He told Alli and Connor and they were cool about it, so he thought that it would have been cool for Declan too. Declan had to have been hurting.

"K.C.?" Declan murmured, snapping K.C. out of his thoughts.

"Huh?"

"I have something to tell you..."

"What is it?"

"K.C. Guthrie-" "How does Declan know my last name?" K.C. thought.

"I-" Declan's sentence was cut short by the sound of his phone powering down. Declan was absolutely furious at that moment.

"FUCK!" Declan swore as he threw the BlueBerry smart-phone against a picture of him and Holly J.

"Why must those phones have such short battery lives?" Declan mentally fumed.

K.C. was not only shocked to have the line disconnected but was furious. He thought that Declan had hung up on him, but he had not paid attention to the context of what had been said. After all, K.C. Guthrie is not someone who's emotions you can trifle with and get away with it. He swore that he would make Declan pay before going off to sleep. Around midnight, K.C.'s phone started ringing. Again with indifference with a hint of sleepiness, K.C. answered the phone.

"Yo?"

"K.C. I am so sorry my phone died earlier."

"Oh."

K.C. had not known that Declan's phone had not died, but automatically jumped to the conclusion that Declan had hung up on him. Thoughts raced through his mind now that Declan was sitting there on the other line. The thought if him waiting up for his phone to charge so that he could call back made K.C. almost want to run to the Coyne estate, grab Declan in his arms and lock their lips again. But soon after, K.C.'s mind hatched an idea that made him giggle a little, which shocked him because he doesn't giggle. Declan whistling into the phone snapped K.C. out of his thoughts.

"What did you want Declan?"

"I was wondering if you would want to meet up later. Probably at the park where I can be open with you."

"Sure what time?"

"Now."

"Where?"

"Degrassi Park."

"Declan it's 12 am, that park is...-"

K.C. realized that with it being 12 am, the park would be empty. What you could do in an empty park made him smile.

"-empty." Declan confirmed what K.C.'s thoughts practically snapped in his face.

"OK let me get dressed."

"No. I want to see what you look like when you wake up."

"Ehh OK. I didn't feel like getting dressed anyhow. What end of Degrassi Park are you in?"

"Actually I'm in the center, in the forested part."

"Oh OK. So now I'm on my way. Let me just grab my keys and I'm headed that way,"

K.C. walked the short journey to Degrassi Park, feeling the cool spring air whip against his face and though his long brown locks. Seeing the wooded area, K.C. was more than likely going to pass out as he remembered the hot make-out session from in the caf. After walking though the woods for around 30 seconds, he spotted Declan. To make a scene without any one around, K.C. walked behind Declan, called him, and quickly turned to the other side so Declan's lips could meet his, allowing the two bodies to become one, two minds bonded, two spirits joined, and a relationship bloomed.

"I love you." The two boys said in unison.

The two boys gasped as the both felt a sudden warmth and a tightening of the pants that could only mean one thing...

AN: Please review! I would love to see what you have to say about the Keclan/D.C. pairing [I haven't seen any pairings in that area before] so review if you like. No need for me to stop the story if I don't get reviews, because that's just selfish =D. I'm just here for your entertainment.
