Words had never really been Caleb's forte throughout his lifetime. Sure, he usually spoke a lot whenever he found himself going on a tangent, but that didn't mean that his sentences carried weight to them. At least not when it came to sentiments that the heart normally whispered. Those were intended for a selected few of people to hear, varying from family to friends. Once, he tried to let those very syllables roll off his tongue for the sake of someone special, only to have them fall on deaf ears instead. Now, fear anchored itself down onto his chest and refused to let go. [break][break]
Everything around him felt peaceful then, as he basked in the body heat that Johnny's touch emitted, steered his fears away from a possible, negative line of thinking. However, Caleb wasn't necessarily wired that way. The smallest of actions could very well set the teen off into a spiraling whirlwind of thoughts without even trying. It had been something his mother tried to help Caleb overcome when he lived under her roof. Upon his dorm stay, this wasn't a luxury he could easily afford from that moment on. [break][break]
And that became the reason as to why there now sat a person, right there on the floor in front of Caleb, as the rest of the world stood still. That familiar, deadpanned expression, physique matching Caleb's. Only difference being their difference in physical age. Those darkened blue eyes bore straight into Caleb's soul as the teen bowed his head in a display of shame. 'I warned you.. you never listen.' the voice echoed in the room. Caleb took in a shaky breath as he gradually released Johnny's hand in order to scoot closer to the edge of the bed. [break][break]
"I do listen—" [break][break]
'No. You don't.' this caused Caleb to stiffen in place before he raised his gaze towards those eyes that bore straight into him. A gulp followed suit as the other continued. 'Have you forgotten what others have done? The pain I've endured to keep you safe?' Caleb's shoulders raised as he glanced somewhere else. "No.." he trailed off only to have his mirror self continue their attack.[break][break]
'Of course you do. That's why I need to remind you not to let yourself be so vulnerable all the t—' Caleb snapped a pointed look towards them, "Well what if I'm tired?" this caught his mirror self to blink in surprise, all while they maintained their lips pressed firmly together and listened. "What if .. I want to take a chance this time? Maybe.. maybe it won't work out. Maybe.. I'll end up getting hurt. Who knows? I sure as hell won't if I don't at least try." this caused a look of sheer displeasure to take place on the mirror's face. 'Caleb, you'll get hurt—' [break][break]
"You don't know that." [break][break]
'I do. They all hurt you. Who knows, maybe one day Cyrus and Farrah will finally realize and leave you too.' [break][break]
"They wouldn't do that." Caleb's fingers clutched onto the bedsheets that were pinned underneath his fingertips. 'It always happens. Remember? Back in Kindergarten? People get tired of you, but you pretend like it never happens.' Caleb's chest tightened, "No. You're wrong." he protested, then shook his head. 'I'm not wrong. They will aaaaall leave you one day and you know it.' Those brows furrowed in building frustration, "It won't happen—" [break][break]
'But it could.' the mirror interjected as it looked elsewhere. "Just shut up!" Caleb finally snapped, which caused the younger version of himself to quickly flick their focus back on his present self in shock. "Shut up.. you don't know them. They would never do anything to hurt me." he sternly continued which, in turn, made his mirror gradually lower their stance. '... I hope you're right. For both our sakes.' before everything returned to normal. [break][break]
Nothing in the room had changed, and Caleb never moved from where he'd been sitting. His fingers were still intertwined with Johnny's, all while Caleb zoned out. Finally, he returned his focus towards the upperclassman with a few blinks. "Sorry.. I spaced out." he smiled apologetically, only to tilt his frame against Johnny's side, only to take a moment to observe his thumb brush against the side of Johnny's hand. "I.. want to get to know you a bit better, though. If.. that's okay." he finally admitted, allowing the display of those flushed cheeks to be seen as piercing, blue eyes honed in on purple. "If you want to..?"

Everything finally felt quiet for once in Johnny's life. A warmth wrapped around his hand, gentle and sweet when pressed against his calloused, bandaged hand. There was heat where Caleb was settled beside him. It spread across his arm and despite the weight, was comfortable for the welcomed human contact. Being nestled next to Caleb showed Johnny how much he desired this dark-haired man's touch. His breathing was steady as his mind ran millions of miles... There was no way Caleb thought this was not romantically intimate... right? But he specified being an official friend...
[break][break]
Maybe he needed to become friends first? ... But why the f*ck did that matter?! He should not be holding Caleb's hand, he should not be considering indulging himself further... Yet, Johnny found himself swallowing and squeezing Caleb's hand instead. As gentle as the bully could manage to avoid damaging Caleb any further. The blonde took a deep breath, contemplating if he should take a risk... The question rotated in his mind, burning on his lips as Johnny shifted nervously beside Caleb.
[break][break]
"So... just curious... What does it take for someone to become your partner?" Johnny asked, voice filled with awkwardness.
[break][break]
A silence hung in the air... Long, nerve-wracking and peculiar as Johnny glanced over at the azure-eyed cutie... The silence proceeded, long and uncomfortable... A hand was brought up and waved in front of the dark-haired junior's face as a brow rose.
[break][break]
"Uh... Caleb?" He hesitantly mumbled.
[break][break]
The hand drew away when the junior began blinking rapidly, attention returning to the present... He zoned out. An awkward smile stretched across Johnny's face as his cheeks burned a little... There was no possible way he could work the courage up to repeat his question... It's not f*cking happening! The tilted head followed by the idle movement of Caleb's fun brought a comfort Johnny enjoyed as he remained settled beside him... Carefully, Johnny's purple eyes watched Caleb, a little enthralled by their serene moment together... The question asked instilled a little hope in the blonde.
[break][break]
The azure eyes that locked onto his purple brought a strange feeling to Johnny. A nervousness settled in Johnny's stomach, akin to the butterflies mentioned when somebody had a crush. A red tint pooled in the blonde's cheeks, but... he could not pull his eyes away.
[break][break]
"Uh... yeah, sure, why not?" The blonde responded, an awkward cadence in it. "... And that means... I get to know you too, right?"
[break][break]
The words were spoken softly, a gentleness similar to a whisper escaping Johnny's lips. As though getting to know one another was considered a secret meant to be kept between them. Yet, for the blonde, it was considered that... There was a fear of interacting with Caleb intimately... As though he was waiting for somebody to point it out and condemn him. For his mother to suddenly appear and wail at him about how he was supposed to be straight... At times, it felt like everybody expected Johnny to be straight, that his compulsions and attractions should not exist...

It'd taken Caleb a bit to finally register what had been originally asked. What did he seek for a potential partner? A pensive look stationed itself on the teen's expression as he glanced back to their joined hands. At least in the brief instance they still were together. For some reason it caused a feeling of yearning to bore in Caleb's chest the moment they parted, but he couldn't bring himself to utter a single word in regards to it. [break][break]
Instead, he focused on Johnny's hope filled expression. This alone drew a smile onto Caleb's lips as he slowly sat upright, then looked onward towards nothing in particular. "Honestly? I really just want them to like me. The weird, rambling, clingy me. I just.. want someone to genuinely care about me. To.. see me for who I am. But maybe that's asking a lot." [break][break]
Caleb bowed his head in an apologetic manner as he stroked the crook of his neck. "To be honest, I never really.. had someone. I have thought about dating, obviously.. but most girls think I'm too cute. And guys think I'm too girly. So I'm .. not really sure if there's a person out there that would like someone like me." a shrug soon followed as he shifted in place. He wasn't entirely sure why he felt compelled to express such sentiments to someone who once voiced their disinterest.[break][break]
However, despite such words being exchanged originally, Caleb felt those walls around him slowly dipping down in order to, at the very least, expose such feelings and lay them, figuratively, in front of Johnny. The two had known each other for a few months, so with that in the forefront, Caleb felt a bit more comfortable with outing himself. A small sigh left his lips as he shook his head soon after, then refocused on Johnny. [break][break]
"What about you? Do you have any preferences when liking someone?" those bright eyes bore into the upperclassman before Caleb leaned in just slightly closer. He wanted to know what he'd be potentially up against. What kind of ideal person Johnny enjoyed as company, and perhaps, in a way, to soothe the feeling of eventual defeat. To Caleb, there wasn't a single way this person wasn't close but perfection, for deep down, that's how he slowly started to view the older teen. [break][break]
Granted, he couldn't bring that to light just yet, so he simply held it close against his chest for a little while longer.

There was a thorough expectation Caleb did not hear his dumbass question. It meant the blonde would be free from the hook... at least, that was what Johnny believed. A smile stretched across the face of the azure-eyed junior... and Johnny raised a brow... What was he smiling about exactly? While the purple-eyed upperclassman fancied watching a smile stretch across that sweet face, he occasionally wondered what caused it to appear. However, as Caleb began speaking, the blonde gradually began to understand the situation he was presented with... A red tint appeared on Johnny's cheeks as he listened to the oddly simplistic and saccharine answer.
[break][break]
Acceptance was everything Caleb desired. A genuine care where one's heart burned with a passion akin to his... The answer made Johnny's cheeks burn hot. A vibrancy exhibited in the red of his cheeks. It stretched across the bridge of Johnny's nose before he glanced away to salvage illusions of safety he possessed after slip after slip... Yet, he heard Caleb describe his situation in more detail, how people failed to notice the piece of perfection standing before him was beyond him. Gears turned as Johnny's eyes returned to Caleb, eyes softly narrowed, but the expression was not aimed at Caleb.
[break][break]
"Well, I think they're f*cking stupid because you're perfect...-ly fine!" Johnny answered, stumbling and catching himself.
[break][break]
The question was reversed... and managed to throw Johnny off. A silence overtook the blonde... his hand unconsciously squeezing Caleb's as he contemplated in a brewing storm of thoughts. He knew the answer... but was unsure how to say it. Unsure if should speak about his preferences... There was a step in two separate worlds, a frightening reality surrounding Johnny as he maintained his silence... but he knew what would happen.
[break][break]
"... I..." Despite knowing, words froze on his tongue. "I... like... um..."
[break][break]
Every time Johnny attempted to answer, his mouth froze, unable to push himself further... The blonde wanted to answer, but he found himself unable to provide more insight as his heart began pounding. Instead of answering, Johnny found his gaze drawn away and down toward the floor. The rumbling in his sternum brought nerves twisting inside his chest. Something dropped deep into the pits of his stomach as the repression conquered and the purple-eyed senior found himself staring forward and unable to speak further about the situation. He could not return the favour despite wanting to show reciprocation...
[break][break]
His thumb rubbed over the top of Caleb's hands, feeling the soft skin with his calloused thumb. Occasionally, his eyes drifted to him, the embarrassment written across Johnny's face in the form of reddened cheeks and the inability to look Caleb in those azure eyes.

Initially, Caleb wasn't really expecting much of anything in return to his initial declaration of his experiences. Sure, there had been instances in the past where he genuinely wished that things had played out differently. But alas, life never worked that way. At least not in his favor, except for the obvious few times. Like the times where he met Farrah, Cyrus, and even Johnny. However, the subject that lingered in the tensed air around the two didn't have anything to do with the aforementioned individuals so much as the latter. [break][break]
The teen waited patiently for the answer, all while he stared at Johnny's features in his attempt to find it physically. The shift in his expression did offer a hint off a possibility, but in that same breath, he didn't wish to get his hopes up. That voice in the back of his head reminded the teen that Johnny had a lot of options at his disposal. Ever since the two met, there had been a type of attraction that Caleb couldn't really deny. That alone caused Caleb's heart to skip a few beats the second the word perfect..ly had been brought into play. [break][break]
Caleb never really believed that Johnny could be capable of seeing him as something more than a fellow classmate. This became the initial reason as to why he never truly understood it at first, but as time went on, the pieces of the puzzle slowly fell into place. The blush that now lingered on Johnny's cheeks made sure to give more than enough, but Caleb willed himself from jumping into conclusions. For all he knew there could be someone out there that has been on Johnny's mind for far longer than the other way around. [break][break]
His tutor had attended the academy far longer than Caleb has, which allowed the possibility of other people to weasel into the romantic picture. The second Caleb took notice of those features that seemed a bit more downcast than they normally did, it made Caleb's stomach twist with guilt for putting his companion on the spot. Hesitantly, Caleb lifted his free hand and settled it lightly on Johnny's cheek the moment he took the moment to return his gaze towards him. Reassuringly, Caleb smiled softly while his thumb rubbed against the curve of the cheek in reassurance. [break][break]
"Hey.. it's okay. Don't force yourself, alright? You don't owe me anything. Not even an explanation to how you're feeling. I understand." before he added a light nod, then slowly moved in close. This time, he brought his head to a rest on Johnny's shoulder and closed his eyes in order to relax in place. "Besides, I don't want to ruin the confession for the person you like. Should be something special, you know? So maybe it's better this way." he uttered softly, then began to reciprocate the gesture by rubbing his thumb against Johnny's. [break][break]
Sure, jealousy had pinched at Caleb's chest, but he mentally swore he'd ignore it for the sake of Johnny's happiness. He deserved that much, especially after everything he's managed to endure. It'd be selfish of Caleb to want more than he already has managed to receive already, after all. And he'd hate to become someone like that just because he liked Johnny more than he initially thought he did.

His pathetic inability to answer Caleb made his heart beat loud and rhythmically in his ears... Something others could easily express and embrace was something brimming with a deep sense of shame for Johnny. A fear that roared loud inside his head, reminding him of everything he stood to lose by allowing that side of him to be free. The thoughts were irrational notions of abandonment. An expected lonesomeness that would consume him if he dared utter those words aloud. Despite that, his hand remained latched to Caleb's, that physical contact being among the few things grounding him as his mouth dried and invisible chains kept his mouth shut.
[break][break]
Despite the internal monologue about his homophobic friends having likely abandoned him because of the incident and his narcissistic mother not mattering in the equation... Johnny felt scared. Fear grasped him in a way that made no sense to the blonde, yet, he could not rationalize himself through those cruel, twisted nightmares... It felt as though his brain malfunctioned and was unable to process the question, instead returning to the emotions that cursed him. The cycle repeated as his gaze refused to meet Caleb's. How pathetic was he to not be able to even provide a vulnerable answer?
[break][break]
Then the warmth enclosed his cheek and his purple eyes looked at the azure ones as a smile settled across those familiar lips. Gentle and sweet as he always was... Caleb's words were benevolent as he spoke, ceasing the rampaging, mental tirade looping in Johnny's mind. Entranced, purple eyes watched as Caleb, listening to him speak of confessions... The blonde settled again, appreciating the reciprocation in the intimate contact between them. A silence settled over Johnny, his purple eyes returning forward as he inhaled deeply and allowed the breath to slowly leave him.
[break][break]
"... Thank you," was all he murmured.
[break][break]
His voice was soft as he settled there, appreciating Caleb's decision to not pry into him. Some people would have allowed their curiosity to fester and push him until he exploded... but Caleb assessed and treated him with kindness and patience... Two things the bully was hesitant to believe he deserved, but appreciated nonetheless. Once comfortable, the blonde did not add any additional comments, but instead sat there, comfortable and safe... He needed that sensation after hiking up his mind with the fight... There was a weariness that settled in his bones, stiff and heavy, thus the moment of calm was appreciated.

Caleb's eyes remained fixed on his companion, drinking in the closeness between them a bit longer. He did this while his hand maintained a steady stroke against his cheek, relishing in the settled intimacy. Something in the depths of his stomach shifted, breath hitched in his lungs, and throat ran dry. Something about Johnny really did whisk away his words without even trying. Cheeks grew slightly in color before his head dipped, sheepishly. [break][break]
"Sorry.." he softly apologized before he lowered his hand back to his lap. All at once it felt like Johnny had turned into a roaring flame and Caleb didn't really mind getting burned. Despite this, he wasn't even sure who had ignited it in his upperclassman to begin with. Caleb sat next to Johnny, basking in the warmth of that figurative flame that burned proudly underneath the layers of hesitation.[break][break]
Gradually, the blue eyed teen pulled away. In doing so, he returned Johnny's personal space, but in that same breath, missed the feeling of Johnny's fingers in the gaps between his own. "I.. think I'll catch you later. A lot happened today, and I honestly doubt we have any brain juice left for numbers." he smiled playfully, then began to gather his belongings. For some odd reason, it felt wrong. The notion of pulling away, of leaving, of unlocking his hold on that hand that offered such solace. [break][break]
But he couldn't.[break]
He shouldn't.[break][break]
Not when, for all Caleb knew, those aspects were meant for someone else entirely. Guilt poured straight onto his shoulders as he stuffed his notebook into his bag and adjusted it onto his shoulder. "I'll text you later, okay?" he inquired as his steps were directed towards the door. Caleb's heart tried to pull him back, even if his mind reassured the teen that this option could be considered the one that hurt less. He reached for the door handle and twisted it, slowly greeting the hallway past the doorframe.[break][break]
But before he stepped out, Caleb's step halted for a moment, then glanced back over towards his upperclassman. An appreciative smile graced his lips as he proceeded to add, "And Johnny? Thanks.. for earlier. You really didn't have to, but.. I appreciate you. A lot." Caleb admitted, then closed the door in his wake. Perhaps it could be viewed as him running away. [break][break]
Shutting the door on those blooming feelings that Johnny instilled in his chest. But he simply couldn't stay and potentially ruin what little he's managed to uncover. Regardless of how much he wanted to stay tucked beside Johnny. Regardless of how much his body now ached for his warmth. Regardless of how much he now missed his scent. Regardless of how much he missed his touch.. Johnny wasn't his.[break][break]
And honestly, maybe he never will be.
