Sometimes, being around a certain group of people, Noah would be terrified. Not so much like a child afraid of a monster, more like he was so scared he would be judged. He didn’t know what quality these people held, what made them like they were, or even why it was like this, but he couldn’t do anything about it. Around these people, Noah would never come out of his shell, never make a move or a squeak, and hope none of them ever noticed him. It was like his brain predetermined who was safe and who wasn’t, and those he should fear above all else. Because also, they’re some people who Noah was fine around, who he acted normal around. Like it was nothing at all. He usually didn’t even know them, but he just didn’t feel the self consciousness as extremely with the others. But the others had the upper hand. Anytime he was around a single person he was terrified of, nothing would ever matter. He knew it was weird, but he’d just grown to avoid the people who scared him. It was his tactic in life, to just avoid the difficult situations. He didn’t care if he was a coward, really. He just hoped somehow things would turn out, out of some other otherworld method, no matter really what it was about.
Noah groaned internally as the lights went out soon after Bo turned them on. He really wanted to just be in a lit and safe environment, not in the dark. He liked dark, when with others, because it hid everything, it hid himself and it hid the other, nothing was seen. Just for once he wanted the light, to see Bo, he found. But, he would deal with this. He looked around in the dark at Bo’s words. He couldn’t exactly see, but he was pretty sure where the couch was situated. He made his slow way, listening to B0 as he did something. Just as he sat, he noted Bo lighting candles. He smiled; glad that there would be some light, Bo was smart. He shifted nervously when Bo sat, smoothing his hands over the fabric on the couch arm at his side. But just then, a great roll of thunder rolled across the silence, and in an instant Noah’s hands flashed out and grabbed Bo’s upper arm and he flinched inwardly. His grip remained tight until several moments after the thunder was gone. Then, he flinched away, realizing what he was doing. “Oh! I am so sorry!” Noah looked at Bo’s arm in the dark, not knowing if he hurt him or not. He feathered his hand lightly down his arm, biting his lip, hoping he didn’t hurt him. “I know I’m totally lame for being so scared of storms and everything. I just, didn’t much like them as kids and have a few bad memories…I can appreciate the beauty; just the noise gets to me. I’m really sorry, are you alright?” Noah looked at Bo, his hand still on his arm, wondering really if he could do anything about it if he’d really hurt him. He knew he was a weak little thing, but he couldn’t help worry about Bo.

There was not a whole lot in the world that Bo was supremely affraid of. Truth be told, he did not know why he actually was not affraid of things either. Maybe it was because he was somewhat traumatized when he was younger by his father. Maybe it was that he did something that he was sure every living being would be scared of. He shot someone. He took someone's life. He saw the fear of his father pierce right through him like a lazor. What else was there really to fear after experiencing something as trauma enduring like that? Bo kind of wished he could be like "No, no Noah, don't worry about it, when you shot someone like me there is nothing else to fear because you already did the worst thing in the world, if you want you can borrow the gun i used and shoot me in the head... then i wouldn't have this running through my mind the rest of my life..." The last part was something that even if Bo had said out loud, he wouldn't mean. Bo wanted to live. There was so much more in this life than where he was right at that moment. Life extended Peace River. Life extended his father. Life extended Lunar Academy. After all life had brought him to Noah.
Bo realised that Noah was scared of the thunder, but when Noah grabbed at his arm, he was completely surprised. All that Bo actually felt was the brush of the arm against him, but Bo felt no pain. He never felt pain. He rolled his eyes slightly as if he had to explain this to someone multiple times, but he realised that Noah knew nothing of his painless skin. "Don't worry about it Noah," Bo said as he tensed up his hand and then released, multiple times. "Don't think anything of it, there is something in this world to match a someone for them to fear, it is just natural, really. I'm fine trust me... I didn't even feel a thing." Bo's voice dropped quite a bit when he said he didn't feel a thing. He kind of wished he could feel something. Without pain how else was he supposed to know for sure that he was actually living? Bo was just one of those types of people that would cut himself just to prove he was alive. He remembered skipping through channels once, and a girl from a show called Heroes jumped off a high pier, got back up and tried to do it again... for the sixteenth time. After that he started watching the show more often, just to see the girl Claire Bennett as she lived through something like that. It wasn't quite the same though. Claire could feel pain... but she regenerated herself. But when it came to the second season she stopped feeling such pain. Her character was living just like Bo was. A painfully painless life.

As the thunder raged around them, rain drops clattering onto the glass panes and lighting illuminating things everyone in a while, Noah still sat, near frozen, his heart shaking. One day he really wanted to get over this, to go and stand outside in the middle of a raging storm. Because it was ridiculous, he couldn’t get hurt. He was immortal, for heavens sake. Why was he scared of anything? He was going to live forever, lest someone cut his head off. It didn’t matter if he made a blunder or something tried to eat him, he would keep on living. He would outlive his family and his friends. Then all of a sudden, this made something come to mind. This meant he was going to outlive Bo. He didn’t really know when he would stop aging, if it was now or later on. The administrator had said it varied, but it would happen eventually. He felt himself shake, looking at Bo’s face. That was not something he wanted. He didn’t care that Bo and him would never be like he wanted it to be, he just wanted to be able to stay with him, for a while anyway. And he would outlive everyone, everything. It was insanity, how the hell was he ever going to get through this? He wanted to run a million miles away, demand a cure for this curse, or something. He looked at Bo, realizing that this would not last forever. Nothing would. Noah suddenly felt very alone.
Noah felt relief as Bo said he was alright. He still felt nervous, but he was always like that. He lifted his hand away, though he really just wanted to stay touching Bo’s arm. He was such a pathetic little thing. In what right world would Bo even fall for him. He sighed deeply, running his hand through his hair. He really just wanted to talk, a lot, a long rant about something, anything. Though last time he had ranted to someone, he’d managed to get himself smothered in a hug, which had been uncomfortable. But then, Noah imagined being tackled the same way Aubree had tackled him, but by Bo. That very thought made him smile just slightly. He wanted though, to remain a semblance of being normal. Talk about normal things like normal people. He drummed his fingers against his legs lightly, thinking. “Thanks Bo, I know I’m a total freak. I warned you,” he hesitated, unsure of what else to say. He hedged on an idea, wavering uncertainly. “You…ever wonder, really, what it’d be like, to…uh, like not get hurt?...not so much..just like, get hurt, get into pain, but then that all just go away, like nothing ever happened?” Noah felt awkward, speaking these words. He knew the sudden change of subject would throw Bo off, problem get him questioning things, but Noah didn’t care. He felt like his palm was tingling, though he didn’t know why.
Re: i know it's not your time, but bye-bye « Reply #78 on Sept 25, 2009, 8:25pm »
Bo decided to lay his body across his bed. He hoped that Noah would do the same. They could just lay there, their feet dangling off the edge and they could just talk as if the storm was ever so distant. He closed his eyes for a moment. Sleep didn't even evade him the slightest. He was so restless. He questioned how he was still alive when he almost never went to sleep. Thank goodness there was his pills or else he'd probably be a dead man. Bo always wondered what death would be like. To experience that climax in your life where everything you'd ever come to know is about to end. And then you would die. Would it be peacefully? Would you be born again? Would be with a God of somesort? Bo was a Christian man. He'd like to believe that Heaven was greatfully waiting for him. But probably not anymore. He was the villian of story books.
Bo was suddenly frozen in fear. He actually found something he feared. Had Noah realized that Bo could not feel a thing? Was his previous comment so much as throwing out the truth? Had he really just admitted to Noah that he was painless? But as Noah carried on with the topic, Bo realized that Noah was taking a different angle to the subject. Bo was relieved quickly. He should be able to tell Noah that he was painless... after all Noah would have something similar to Bo since they are in the same school, but the idea of someone actually knowing his "ability" was actually frightening. It made him feel vulnerable and weak. "Like extreme healing?" Bo asked a little cautiously. Was that what Bo had in technical terms? Was there just this instant relief of pain the moment if struck down on him, to the point where it instantly healed? The idea was a little out there, but it remained in his mind. The administrators never actually explained how his genetics worked. They didn't understand how Bo could have the sense of touch, or even taste, yet at the same time feel nothing when it came to pain. They just said that Bo was made of steal. Bo didn't like that. It just made him think of the shiney, cold coated metal. "Well, from where you seem to be taking it from, I don't think I've thought too much about it till now, I mean, I definately have before, haven't most people? But I think i have a pretty good idea with the whole... painless thing..." Bo needed to close his mouth. He was scared that if he said to much that Noah would start questioning what Bo had meant by that. The truth was, Bo trusted Noah a lot, but he was still scared of the reaction.
Re: i know it's not your time, but bye-bye « Reply #79 on Sept 26, 2009, 5:21pm »
There was a noticed movement beside Noah, and he turned slightly so he could see in the corner of his eye, Bo lying down. He looked back at him, curling his legs up onto the bed. Then, thunder crashed and, like usual, Noah jumped about a foot into the air. It scared him so much, he immediately dove down on the bed, laying so he was on his stomach and pressing his face into the sheets. He grumbled to himself, glad that at least in his fear he didn’t dive at Bo and freak him out totally. He rolled over onto his back, sighing deeply. Noah started twirling the hair at the side of his head with a loose finger, biting his lip and listening to Bo. He was trying to ignore the storm, it was pretty hard, as distracting as Bo could be. He was glad at least, that Bo didn’t really seem to infer anything from Noah’s words. “It’s a pretty strange thing to think about, but sometimes you have way to much time on your hands. Most people would probably think its great right? I mean, to never get hurt again, to ever have a cold, or a cut, or age. A perfect life. I think the immortality would drive me insane though, don’t you think? Everyone dying around you and you can’t even get hurt. For years and years, you would have nothing wrong with you. You’d forget what it was like, back when you were normal. I think it wouldn’t be all that great, even if it did save your life. We’re all supposed to leave this earth for a higher place, right? Well, what if you couldn’t?” Noah uncomfortably crossed his arm over his chest, and then pulled down his shirt, though it was far from riding up.
Lying there, on Bo’s bed, Noah started going over what had been said. They’d talked a lot in the past few hours. He would have never expected this outcome, standing outside Aubrees dorm with Bo there. The words tumbled together in his brain, unorganized but all there. He almost wished that he could have somehow kept a record of all this, words were to easily lost, and he didn’t want to loose anything of what Bo had said. “I think I have a good idea with the whole…painless thing” … “don’t worry, I didn’t feel a thing” Noah titled his head, going over those words a few more times in his head. Together, they didn’t make sense, or well, they led his stream of consciousness to a sudden realization. Noah knew, from many teachers telling him so, he was apparently a smart kid. He always got good grades, but took that for granted. He didn’t note the successes. But this started to get his brain turning. He twisted slightly, lifting his head up and placing it to rest on his palm, propped up by his elbow. He thought, knowing Bo was saying something here, but not outright. Noah didn’t know if he meant it, but he couldn’t miss the implied meaning of his words. “..Bo...I don’t...mean to assume, or anything, its just, from what you say, it seems…well it really seems like, you know a lot about the whole painless thing, I haven’t much thought about that…I just think usually about the pain, and then it being gone. ” Noah’s voice faltered and died. He couldn’t force out the words he wished to say, it was like his mouth had a filter and anything never came out right. He wondered if Bo would pick up on the question hidden under the layers there, and if he would really answer it.
Re: i know it's not your time, but bye-bye « Reply #80 on Sept 27, 2009, 8:45am »
There was a creeping suspicion that there was another reason why Noah had brought up such a topic. It was not something that a person would just randomly bring up. Could it be that Noah had this ability that they were speaking of...? No. Bo didn't think that Noah did, after all he had spoken as if he knew someone that had it, rather than he had it. As Noah said, having an ability like that would drive him crazy, and Noah seemed like a perfectly sane person in Bo's eyes. "Well... if I was to have a power like that, I'm not sure how i would react. I guess, what would matter the most... was if i met someone that was worth dying for, because if i did than more than anything i'd wish i couldn't live forever, but if i lived life in a shadow then why not watch the world pass by me?" Bo just said exactly what he meant. He didn't know what to say, or really what to do for that matter. This topic was just something he didn't discuss with most people. Nor did he discuss anything with most people.
Bo was starting to feel that creeping, worried sense in his body. He was figured out. Noah knew. Noah had placed it all together. The truth was, that it shouldn't be that big of a deal. Every body in Lunar Academy had an ability of some sort, but Bo just hated being exposed. Noah had not actually burst out saying that Bo had a painless ability, but it was obvious. Bo couldn't help but look Noah right in the eyes. He was hesitant to say anything because he was in fear. Looking into Noah's eyes, Bo realized that he couldn't lie to Noah. He needed to let him know the truth, after all he had already figured it out. Oh, how Bo somewhat disliked smart people. "Your right... I kind of do know a lot about pain, or lack there of, I guess you can say it is what i specialize in." Bo couldn't say it completely. He just felt uncomfortable saying "I'm a super hero with the power of no pain! I am ultimate!..." and then carry on with an evil laugh. No. Bo could say nothing like that. Just the thought of saying something like that made him uneasy. He shifted a little in his bed, but it was his inner self that still remained slightly uncomfortable.
Re: i know it's not your time, but bye-bye « Reply #81 on Sept 28, 2009, 7:50pm »
Bo’s words pierced through the fog Noah’s brain was in, and he looked up quickly. He spoke exactly what Noah had been feeling, feeling really since the accident. He’d lost a love once in his life, and though the confusion of what was going on blocked the grieving process, it wasn’t long before Noah realized the pain he was in a lot wasn’t from anything but a broken heart. It had been the worst thing in the world, leaving the boy he loved, but know, well he at least felt better about it. It was still a soft burn in his chest, just hidden now; an old ache that he knew was never going to go away. But the thought of going through that again, well Noah shied away from it majorly. That’s really why he hadn’t had any boyfriends since then, because he didn’t let himself fall for anyone, and his regular problems. He just never wanted to be hurt. Nor though, did he want to be alone the rest of his life. Laying here with Bo proved that. “That’s really what bothers me most about it. I’d rather die then live on without the person that I loved. I know you’re supposed to get over a heartbreak, and a lot of people do, I have, but its not something I necessarily want to go through again, and hell, things still aren’t right between him and I, even though I literally died and fucking came back to life, which is another horrid thing about being able to heal. When you die, you stay dead, and god, things would be so much easier then.”Noah’s voice cracked, his tone riddled with anger and hurt. He didn’t want to say any of those words, not to Bo, but they spilled out, blood pouring from his mouth. He felt exposed as soon as they fell into the silent air. He was bad for this, and so much different then Bo. Noah admired Bo’s ability to keep silent, to observe things and not let out every little secret. Noah got carried away on his emotions. He wanted to crawl under the blankets and hide from Bo, like a little kid. It was at least dark, he let that settle around him and tried not to move a muscle, playing dead.
As Bo finished his short sentence, Noah noted how uncomfortable he seemed to feel. He could pick this up easily off him, it was a reflection of how Noah always felt. He realized if he felt exposed saying his rant, Bo, the strong silent one, would feel like his skin was ripped off from these few words, though they said nothing. They implied much though. Noah half wanted to murder the fool who invented implications. The last thing he wanted was for Bo to be uncomfortable or say anything he didn’t want to. “Hey, Bo, you don’t have to say anything, yeah? I mean, I’m a raving freak over here, one of those is enough. We need someone to stay sane, and our best bet is you. And anyway, I’m just some lonely little stranger off the streets with an irrational fear of storms and a talent of getting myself into bad situations, you don’t need to tell me anything,” he tried to make himself sound as sincere as he felt, because he wanted Bo to understand this. He felt maybe he could shut his giant trap, though that was unlikely to happen.
Re: i know it's not your time, but bye-bye « Reply #82 on Oct 3, 2009, 9:12am »
Bo was shocked, for more than one reason. His head started spinning. He felt exactly like he was in one of those dreams where all that was happening was a constant fall until finally you hit the ground with a great thud. When he hit that ground he felt pain in his chest, but it wasn't because he actually fell, it was because he was so deeply surprised. Did Noah just say "he" meaning that he had been in a relationsihp with a boy? Wait. Did he just said he "literally dyed"? What was going on here? This was all a lot in one second. Thats all it actually was too. It all was said in a matter of a second. "Ummm..." Bo was trying to figure out what to say, but he just couldn't. Noah was dead? Noah was gay... or bisexual...? Noah was something all right and Bo was curious to know what it was. He was so confused. "I'm not one hundred percent sure if I heard you correctly..." Bo was trailing off trying to make things seem less awkward, but he was scared that the more he spoke the more awkward things might grow. He wanted to know for sure that what he heard was what he heard. If Noah was actually the same sexuality than Bo, than Bo had been worried over something he didn't actually have to worry about. And if Noah was supposed to be dead, did that mean that Bo had just figured out why Noah was at Lunar Academy?
Bo was a little stuck in what Noah had said that he somewhat forgot what he had said moments before. He didn't remember until Noah somewhat said something. It made Bo a litle angry. Noah had basically just spilled out his guts on Bo's bed and Bo couldn't say one direct answer. Bo lifted himself off of the bed flinging himself onto the floor, frustrated. He started to get huffy, and his eyebrows were furrowing in. He rest his hands up to his cheeks, whiping his face. But then like a whip he flung them about. Finally, he rested his hands on his hips, occasionally lifting his arm to whip the non existing sweat off of his face. Finally he looked over his shoulder at Noah, realizing how he might have scared Noah. "Look... Noah, I'm sorry, I just..." Bo almost screamed, but his came out like more of a grunt, "I don't know how to say anything directly, I want to tell you, especially after that spill you just had, trust me your not a loser for it... I'm the loser. I just, I just don't know what i am doing with myself, you know? I hate this world for that, it's like everyone is destined to not know what the fuck to do... sorry for the language." Bo was still a little upset. He was breathing heavily and just continued standing there... trying not to shy away from Noah's face.
Re: i know it's not your time, but bye-bye « Reply #83 on Oct 3, 2009, 8:01pm »
Noah was a little surprised when Bo hopped off the bed. He didn’t expect that. He sat up, watching him in confusion. He appeared to be suddenly very frustrated, and Noah immediately though he’d done something. He moved forward on the bed so he was sitting with his legs hanging off. He watched Bo in concern, wanting really to get up and hug him even if it guaranteed a hug. He knew he’d probably just overloaded Bo so much. He flinched when he opened his mouth to speak, expecting BO to blow up at him. He was certainly shocked when he didn’t, and just watched him speak instead. He sat still for a long while when Bo stopped, noting how angry Bo still was. Then he rose to his feet, looking down as his socks hit the carpet. “Don’t be sorry Bo, really…” Now Noah found himself lost for words. He didn’t know how to let what he wanted to say come out of his mouth. There was really something blocking his mouth from opening him mouth anymore. He was unsure and scared, but he found, looking at Bo, he had to. So he stepped foreword slowly, breathing slowly. He got into Bo’s vicinity quick, and as soon as he was, he reached out his arms and wrapped them around Bo in a hug. He held on for a few moments, noticing really how absolutely buff Bo was, it was strange. And how good he smelled, like pine and laundry and cologne. Noah backed away, moving his arms so they rested on Bo’s biceps and looked up at him, trying to see his face in the dark.
“There’s nothing that says we need to know what to do all the time, you know. People act like that all the time and I know I’m the worst for believing it, but it’s true. Sometimes you’ve just got to do what you think you should, even if it makes you look like a total freak. Because then at least you’re being you. I’ve told you a lot that I probably shouldn’t have, though you may not have understood. Like I am gay—which I hope doesn’t make this totally awkward…--And...There are certain bad reasons why I am here, that I really dislike talking about. But none of that is the point…” Noah stopped, trying to think more. He really didn’t trust his mouth anymore, but a hug and a half assed speech would mean nothing. “I don’t even know what to say here, but I’ll try. I don’t want you to think just because I’m spilling my guts to you that you have to too. I’ve gone through a whole lot of junk in my life, none of it good and I’m certainly not sane. You probably have a loaded history to, but you’re at least sane. I just need you to understand what I’m trying to say,” he said, finally sighing and stopping himself. He didn’t move, just stood there, looking up at Bo. It was strange, having someone taller then him, though he was a relatively average height guy.

Bo was so scared that he had frightened Noah, that he figured that when Noah got up he was going to walk out the door and endure the storm. It surprised him when Noah gathered Bo in a hug. It felt good. No. It felt great. Bo started shaking. He hoped that Noah wouldn't be able to tell that he was. He suddenly got worried that his eyes might start tearing. Bo tried to hold those back as best as he could. There was no way he was going to let a drop of his sadness tint, but he quickly had to open his eyes when Noah pulled away. Bo wish Noah had not pulled away. He just wanted to hide his face in Noah's shirt forever. It felt awkward for a moment, Bo realised with Noah's hands on his muscular arms. It made Bo feel like he was on steroids or something because he was comparing himself to a smaller person. But as Noah kept on talking Bo felt more comforted.
The words were spoken. They were right there, in front of Bo, and he had grasped them, collected them and kept them in his pocket. Noah was gay after all. Bo suddenly felt so much better about himself yet at the same time he felt as smart as a gold fish. Bo had been so worried that he was sending a gay-vibe of himself and that Noah would be weirded out by this, but all along there was nothing that Bo actually had to be worried about. Noah kept on going on about how Bo just needed to know what Noah was saying, and that Bo didn't need to spill out his guts, etc. But Bo could only completely concintrate on those certain specific words that Noah said, "I am gay". Bo got a little excited, and was almost ready to jump on Noah and yell "me too!" but Bo still felt hesitant about saying anything of the sort. Bo had kept it a secret from everyone in and surrounding his life that he was actually starting to keep the secret from himself. He was so scared of other people knowing about his sexuality that he almost was scared of his own self. "Yeah, I get what your trying to say, it's just... sometimes when it is hard to say something, one tries to say something that is also personal to them to balance out any possible tension?" Bo said as if he was asking a question. He wanted to balance out what had been said telling Noah that they share the same sexuality, but the idea was just too frightening. Almost overwhelming.
Re: i know it's not your time, but bye-bye « Reply #85 on Oct 9, 2009, 5:12pm »
Before Bo started speaking, Noah began to fret. He was, as always, setting himself up for disappointment, in the major way. He stood there, his hands on Bo’s arms, closer then someone would get to someone they’d just met, and he hardly wanted to move. he seriously liked Bo, but already he felt sadness. Because Bo was sane. Because Bo was straight. Because so many things were wrong that nothing would ever be right. He let his arms fall down, and took a step back, looking down at the ground. Even as Bo spoke he stepped away, listening but not watching Bo’s face. He ran a hand through his hair, tearing at his lips with his teeth, trying not to feel. The back of his legs hit thee bed and he curled downwards, huddling his legs under his body, finally getting the courage to look up at Bo now that he was a safe distance away.
Noah remembered the numbing sensation of being completely frozen, head to toe, unable to move a single thing. It was so powerless, but he tried now to remember how it felt exactly, in hopes of replicating it. Maybe if he made himself as cold as ice, he would stop. But with this he vividly remembered the tearing ripping sensation of that damned saw. he winced, even though there was no thunder, it was just silence. “Oh yeah I know that well. I must make things awkward a lot, especially now, saying every word I have in my mind and acting on nothingness. Life is way to intense and I think to much. I’m sorry, about all this. I’m imposing on your space, I should probably disappear before the real bad stuff starts to spill out…” Noah's voice lowered to a whisper and he looked out the window. Winds were still raging, the rain swooping down sideways. It terrified him, the thought of going out in all that, but he felt worse here. He’d made a giant mistake. He rose from the bed, walking towards the door, wondering if Bo was going to say anything, try and stop him from leaving. He wanted him to, Noah didn’t want to run into the beast that lay outside, but it felt as if there were a beast here as well, terrifying Noah.
Re: i know it's not your time, but bye-bye « Reply #86 on Oct 12, 2009, 2:54pm »
Everything suddenly felt wrong. There were wrong words, wrong feelings, wrong senses and wrong movement. Bo wanted to take back what he said and replace it with the words he really wanted to say originally. The expression that was on Noah's face broke Bo inside. He looked crushed, like there was something inside of him exploding. The way he bit his lip, the way he curled on the bed, it was so heart breaking yet... adorable. Bo was almost ready to pounce on Noah and attack him, forcing him into a bear hug. But Noah started saying all the wrong words. His words were filled with sorrow and regret. Bo didn't want Noah to regret what Noah had said. Bo didn't regret the words at all. In Fact, Bo was relieved that those words were spoken. If they had never of been spoken, Bo would've just let Noah keep walking as he headed for the door. But Bo wouldn't let that happen. Bo stood still for a moment as Noah was standing in front of the door, but then he moved his feet and walked up right beside Noah, holding his hand against the door so no one would be able to open it up.
"Look, Noah, don't go, please. It's storming out, and i know you don't appreciate all that intensity outside. I know it seems like an elephant is in the room, but i have never been able to say these things to a person in my life, not a single being." Bo's eyes were growing wide and intense as they peered into Noah's. It felt like Bo was looking right into Noah's soul. Everything felt so much more open. Bo let his eyes wonder down to Noah's tempting lips. He had to quickly look up again into Noah's eyes, "Noah..." Bo dropped the arm he had against the door, and let it graze against Noah's face. He cupped his hand to fit Noah's sharp cheeks perfectly. And then, slowly, Bo started leaning in closer to Noah until his forhead touched against Noah's. His heart started beating faster and his breathing started to slow down as he spoke his words, "I'm gay too..." Bo didn't let the words drift for very long. He let himself embrace to Noah, their lips connecting. Bo was so surprised with himself, but he couldn't let the moment go, it was too perfect.

Bo’s words, or moreover, Bo’s actions, comforted Noah like no other. Bo could have grabbed him ay from the door and broken his arm and Noah wouldn’t really have cared. He just needed to know that Bo wanted him to stay, that was all he was worried about. Also, he just didn’t like the words he’d uttered; it caused him to feel so strange. He looked up at Bo finally, and was shocked at the proximity. At the same time, what Bo said finally sunk in and Noah’s happiness hushed down. He got an aura of feeling around him, like when one is at a museum and feels they must hush, even though nothing tells them to. As Bo’s hand moved from the door to graze Noah’s face, he found that he’d managed to find that frozen state he’d been looking for before. It wasn’t like he’d thought it’d be though. It was like all of his sense weren’t frozen, but super sensitive anyway. He felt like he was floating when Bo’s hand rested on his cheek, and his face got irrationally close. But in all a moment, as Bo’s words floated out, and then hit Noah in the chest like a sledgehammer, he crashed back down. He was beginning to shake, looking into Bo’s eyes and almost loosing himself. Then, the most surprising thing yet, Bo kissed him. Normally, in this circumstance, Noah probably would have jumped clear across the room, because he was so overwhelmed. He would have felt Bo was just doing this out of pity. But instead, Noah was falling towards Bo in a way, wrapping his arms around Bo’s neck so he couldn’t escape just yet. He was shaking slightly; his knees trembling; feeling like they were going to turn to dust and Noah would crumble to the floor. It was all he could do to stop himself from feinting on his feet, his eyes rolling back and falling into the abyss. Noah let himself embrace Bo, a stinging feeling building up in the back of his eyes. This was way too perfect.
All at once, like he’d been shocked, Noah jumped back, gasping in a breath of air. His body hit the wall behind him and his head connected with the solid wall with a sharp little crack. His face was a deep crimson, his eyes wide and wild. He could feel a crashing in his chest, and he couldn’t really seem to get enough oxygen. He didn’t know what to do, what to day, and his lips were still tingling, his body shaking like a leaf. All the divine majesty flew out the window as Noah came back to himself. His eyes sought the carpet and he clutched his hands in front of his body, digging his thumbnail into his skin, causing pain. Things were clicking in his head, folding into place neatly, but Noah ignored it all. The words in his head didn’t make sense. His mind told him Bo was gay, Bo just kissed him, i.e., Bo liked him. It didn’t make any sense in context now though. Noah felt so confused, and half of him was screaming at him to forget it all and just kiss Bo again. He wouldn’t let himself do that. He wanted to leave, he felt like running, because he was so scared. But then Noah finally looked up at Bo, and looking into his eyes, Noah found he just couldn’t leave like that. “Bo….” his voice shook as he tried to speak. He didn’t even know what he wanted to say. “I don’t...I mean, I’m not…I…Umm…Bo...I…I’m really…No, I just…Uh….I don’t…think I really…I mean I know this is really hard and I feel bad, but I mean…umm…I just, I don’t think I understand….I’m...I’m really confused” Noah was surprised he’d managed to stutter through that lot. It was as bad as when he first met Bo. He swallowed, looking at him, trying to keep his eyes off his lips, holding himself back.
