Chapter 62 - Both - What Do We Do Now

Ocean

"I..I think I could tell that." I was nervous when I spoke just now, I was scared and nervous as I looked at the huge bulge in Makai's pants. "I..I don't know what to d..d..do here." When I stared at him this time, I was finally looking into his eyes instead of his manhood, that helped to settle a few nerves at least. "I..i..it's just th..that, I..I..I think that I..I..I-." I paused for a moment and took a deep breath, trying my best to settle myself. "I..I think I like you t..t..too."

The look in Makai's eyes when he heard those words was pure shock. It was like he couldn't believe the words that had just come out of my mouth. He had repeatedly told me that he liked me, that he wanted me, and he had shown me all of that as well. I guess the least I could do would be to say it again.

"Uh..uhm.. M..M..Makai, I..I..I uh, I uhm, really like you. A..a..and I..I um, probably have for a while now. I..I can't m..make it through a day w..without thinking about you." I felt the nerves raging through me, but it looked like Makai was anything but nervous. The grin on his face was starting to get excited.

"You think about me every day, huh?" He leaned in seductively and whispered the words. "How much do you think about me?"

I glared at him, worried that he might already know what I was going to say. I didn't want him to think that there was something wrong with me, but I didn't want to lie to him either.

"Too much." I clenched my jaws when I said those two little words. "So much that I am likely to get myself into trouble." I knew he would get the meaning of those words, or I hoped he would at least.

"That's a little vague." He was doing this on purpose, right? He had to know what I meant by trouble. "Can you explain it a little more?" Was he really asking this? Really?

"W..w..w..well." I stuttered, again. "I..I am thinking about y..you s..s..so much that I need t..t..to touch myself." I felt my face light up and flame bright red. Immediately I buried my face in my hands and prayed that the floor would open up and swallow me whole. That was so stupid of me to say. What the hell had I been thinking?

I did my best not to laugh when Ocean said that. He had been touching himself when he thought of me. It was flattering, arousing, and I knew it already. I had seen evidence of just how aroused we made each other. It wasn't that hard to figure out. Or, maybe it was for Ocean.

"You… touch yourself?" I asked him with a slight amount of curiosity in my voice. "That's… exciting."

He had his face buried in his hands still and he looked like he was too scared to look at me.

"Don't worry, Ocean. I already knew it. There is no reason to feel embarrassed about it either."

"Oh God!" He groaned into his palms, pressing his hands closer to his burning cheeks. "Just kill me now."

I threw my head back then, silently laughing. Dammit, he was so fucking cute right now. I just wanted to look at him and see those pink cheeks of his.

"Ocean?" I called his name, trying to get him to look at me. "Ocean?" I called again because he still wasn't looking at me. I needed to take matters into my own hands and force him to understand that this wasn't a big deal at all. He needed to know that it was perfectly normal to fantasize about the person you're attracted to. "Ocean." I said his name again as I pulled his hands away from his face so I could look at him. "It happens to me too. All the time."

Finally, he looked up and stared at me. His eyes were so filled with shock and awe from what I told him.

"I have the same problem." I made my voice sound smooth and seductive. "And I think about you at night, it causes that problem a lot as well. I don't mind, it's fun and I have lots of stuff to draw on ever since our first kiss."

"Oh God!" He buried his face and blushed again, this time I did laugh.

After a little while, it seemed that Ocean was calm enough to look at me. He seemed surprised to see me still sitting there. Did he think that I was going to leave? I don't know because he didn't say anything about it; he just ignored what had happened already today. 

"So, what do we do now?" He asked me as he ignored the blush on his cheeks.

"What? You mean for the rest of the morning?" I was confused by his question, thinking about it as I slid onto the floor next to his bed.

"No, I mean, about us." He still looked nervous, but I noticed that he wasn't stuttering right now. That was strange.

"What do you want to do about it?" I wondered; this time Ocean slid off the bed and sat next to me on the floor.

Together we were resting our backs against the bed and thinking. I knew what I wanted, but I didn't know what he wanted. I didn't know if he would approve of dating me just yet. He was so new to this.

"Look, Ocean, I told you what I wanted last night. But, I don't know how you feel about that yet. I am willing to take whatever path at whatever pace you want. As long as I get to spend time with you, hang out with you alone once in a while, go out to eat once in a while, I will be happy."

"So you want me to date you?" He glared at me as he tilted his head against the bed behind him. He looked relaxed and calm, but his eyes were the true tell to how scared he was.

"No, friends go out together all the time too, you know. We can just be very close friends who make out from time to time."

"Make out?" He laughed, and the sound was so nice it tightened my body again.

"Yeah, I won't be able to go without feeling those lips of yours. You're just too good of a kisser, and you taste so damn good."

"I..I..I do?"

"Yeah, you taste just like you smell. Pineapples and Coconut, memories of the beach. Though, you also smell like a campfire, I'm glad that part of the scent isn't in the taste." I laughed again, licking my lips for emphasis.

"W..w..well, you taste just like you smell as well." He was blushing again.

"And how is that?" I grinned and tilted my head toward him.

"Y..y..you smell like an orange creamsicle."

"That sounds delicious, it makes me want a popsicle." I swear he looked down at his crotch and then back at me when I said that. I laughed though, I wouldn't do that just yet. It was too soon for that type of intimacy, right?

"Uh..uhm." He was nervous again. "Y..y..you didn't a..answer m..me. What do we do now?"

"Let's hang out. We can see where things go from there. As long as I can be with you, Ocean, that's all that I want."

"Th..that's all?" He looked skeptical. "Nothing else?"

"I don't think you would be into public displays of affection, at least not yet. I will settle for this for the time being. I want to pick you up for school, hang out after practice, and watch a movie in your room. The little things, Ocean, I want the little things."

"That's doable." He grinned. "I like movies anyway."

With that he got up and put something on for us to watch. When he sat back down I saw that it was a chick flick. A romantic comedy by the name of 'The Proposal'.

"Seriously?" I asked him when I looked at the screen. "A chick flick?"

"What? I got used to watching them with Brittney, some of them are really good."

"I didn't say no, now did I?" I chuckled. "I think it's a good choice. Come on, let's watch it."

We sat shoulder to shoulder on the floor next to his bed and started to watch the movie together. It was a good end to the morning that we had shared so far. I also liked how we weren't just next to each other, we were actually touching. His shoulder was against mine when he drew his knees into his chest and settled in to watch the movie.
