Story: You need to calm down

Pairing: Micro-Ice & Sinedd

And as promised here is the next chapter I said would follow quickly. I wouldn't expect the next chapters to follow as quickly as this one did though.

So enjoy and hearing your thoughts about the story is always nice.

No one could know, it was a secret, their secret. Micro-ice would rather die than anyone ever finding out that he was seeing Sinedd. If you could call it that. Of all people, why did it have to be him? All those years of bullying and tormenting each other as kids. How could this have happened? They could not like each other. There was just no way. It must be a physical thing, a sort of company thing, since they both were very lonely. It had to be that, nothing more. Micro-ice certainly didn't love Sinedd and he was sure that Sinedd didn't love him either. How could they? They kept being awful to each other when in public and they didn't really do any of that lovey-dovey stuff when they were together. They just drink and make out when they are drunk enough. Micro-Ice is pretty sure that they wouldn't even make-out if they were sober.

So with being certain about these facts, it unnerved him that Sinedd did certain things. Things other people didn't pick up on, but Micro-Ice knew what they meant.

In the beginning Sinedd was always the first one out of the locker room and Micro-Ice, always being the comic relief that he is, was always the last one ready. Even the girls changed quicker them him. But since they started seeing each other Sinedd would take his time more and they ended up being the last one's in there. They didn't speak, but Sinedd did walk him to his room, although one could argue that his room was just down the corridors, next to the girl's room, so technically he was walking to his own room.

But Micro-Ice knew better unfortunately.

He wasn't happy about this new development.

Mei thought it meant that Sinedd was starting to accept them and he was allowing them to get to know him more. She was thrilled by this. D'jok joked that he better not find a body when they returned the next day for practice. Micro-Ice decided to change this new development when they kissed in the locker room. It was not suppose to happen and he should have ended it as quickly as possible, but he didn't and ten minutes later they walked out, both with their shirts rumbled, hair tousled and a slight red color on their cheeks.

Micro-Ice started to change quicker and made sure he was never alone again with Sinedd in the locker room.

Another thing he did was stand next to him when they were out in public. No one paid attention to this, but Micro-Ice noticed. They usually stayed away from each other, as far as possible. Even during public official football business, they would be put at opposites ends. Now when they would go out for dinner, Sinedd would walk next to Micro-Ice and sit next to him during dinner. It unnerved him when the others leg touched his or his hand would touch his under the table. They didn't speak to each other, but there was some sort of communication between them: Sinedd would seek out his attention and Micro-Ice would completely ignore him.

He hated that Sinedd initiated these kind of contacts, even if you could barely call it that. He would mock Micro-Ice but put his hand on the boy's shoulder and squeeze it. No one would notice that touch but Micro-Ice did. The hand would linger to long and Sinedd being so much taller then Micro-Ice sometimes let his hand slide down, making his arm lay around his shoulder and then use this other hand to push Micro-Ice's head back.

Micro-ice was really not happy when Sinedd did that.

The raven head crossed the line when he picked up Micro-Ice's training bag after an outing with the team and threw it over his shoulder. Micro-Ice pulled it of him, with a lot of force and even kicked his shines. His voice was unusually cold when he spoke, but he kept his voice low so that the others didn't hear him: "Don't touch my stuff."

Micro-Ice was lived with this.

Unfortunately this new behavior that Sinedd was showing, made Micro-Ice wonder why he did that and he came to a conclusion that he absolutely hated. He hated it, because it made him feel guilty. It made him realize that Sinedd was starved for attention, affection and love. Being an orphan must have been hard for him and he probably raised himself. That must have been tough and all things considered he didn't do too bad of a job. Micro-Ice hated knowing this because he was probably the worst choice to be involved with Sinedd because he still hated him a lot. And with a passion even. So he liked the fights between them, he liked the confrontation. But while he liked that, Sinedd was trying to get his attention in another way.

It made him feel guilty and he hated feeling guilty when it came to Sinedd.

But it didn't stop him from going out with Sinedd in the evenings. They started seeing each other more frequent. They didn't wait for those family gatherings, but started seeing each other when the others were out doing their own things. Mei provided a lot of distraction so D'jok didn't realize that he didn't see his best friend as much anymore. Micro-Ice didn't think she did this on purpose. He was positive that she didn't know anything about him and Sinedd.

It wasn't just random making out anymore either. When they walked into the bar they usually visit, Sinedd would take his hand into his and pull him along with him. Miro-Ice would order drinks, while the others arm found it's way around his waist. He let the taller boy pull him closer to his body while they listened to the music and enjoyed their drinks. Somewhere along the night Micro-Ice's arms would lay themselves around the taller boy's waist and he would take in his scent, what he realized was very subtle. He liked it. He also liked it when the other's hand would run threw his hair and grabbed it to make him look up at him.

Yeah the boy was starved for love, but he sure wasn't gentle because of that.

Micro-Ice liked that.
