Russian Roulette (Royce)

Two Spoons

::Jacob's P.O.V::

It's been a good two weeks since I've really talked to my uncle. We've been kind of avoiding one another, my mom insists that we talk, but it's something that we really need to do when we're both ready. I walked downstairs and went to the kitchen. "I'm skipping breakfast today" I said to my mom, my uncle was there, he was sitting at the island drinking coffee and reading the paper. "Okay, honey, have a nice day at school" my mom said as she looked at me, "okay, bye". I left without saying a word to my uncle.

As I walked down the hall, I ran my hand through my hair. I was kind of in an upset mood because of my uncle, but that all subsided when I saw Chresanto waiting for me at my locker. A smile spread across my face as I walked up to him. "Good morning" he greeted, "morning" I replied. I opened my locker and pulled out my chemistry book. "You're here early?" I said, he nodded "mhm, I decided to leave the house early". "Ah, okay, when are you gonna let me come over?" I asked curiously. 

"Jacob, I... I don't really live in the best neighborhood" he said lightly as he gave me a hesitant look, "you've seen it when you took me home". I looked at him, "I did" "and I know you saw the people drinking beer and smoking blunts" he replied. "Chres, I've seen people drink beer and smoke blunts before" I said simply, "but Jacob, you don't understand, I get grown woman flirting with me just because of who my father is". I furrowed my eyebrows, "who's your father?" "No one, it doesn't matter" he said as he looked down. 

He suddenly looked up at me, "when are you gonna let me come over to your house again?" "I don't know, my uncle and I aren't really on the best of terms right now" "oh, why?" I shook my head a little. "He got pissed off when I came back from Ray's party the day after, he said he was worried about me but I figured he was lying because he didn't call or text me. He got so angry that he said he wished I wasn't gay" I explained. "Jacob, I'm sorry" Chres said suddenly, "it's not your fault, I don't really understand why you're saying sorry" I said lightly. "It's just, the fact that your uncle doesn't accept who you are as a person, it's wrong".

"So your parents know you're bi?" I asked then, he shook his head "my mom left so it's not like I could tell her, and my dad doesn't know". "Why not?" "I'm afraid to tell him" I said, "I don't want him to.... React like-" "Like my uncle?" I said, cutting him off. He nodded a little and gave me a saddened look, "yeah, like your uncle". I stared at him for a minute before sighing and closing my locker, I began to walk away. 

"Jacob, wait! I-I didn't say anything to make you mad, did I?" "No" I answered. He was following me, why was he following me? "You're following me?" "We have the same class?" He replied. "Oh, yeah" "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it like that, about your uncle" "Chres, I'm not mad at you, chill" I said as I looked at him. He gave me a look filled with worry, "you're sure?" "Yeah, positive". I could tell he didn't believe me and I ended up backing him into the lockers and pressing my lips against his. Our lips moved slowly, I took his hand in mine and he gave it a soft squeeze. 

"You can come over" he said once we broke apart, I looked at him. "I don't have to, if you truly don't want me to, then that's fine" "no, it's okay". "Okay, I'll also see if you can come back over soon too" I said as I kept my fingers in between his. I pulled us off to chemistry.

::Chresanto's P.O.V::

I sat next to Jacob at lunch and Elijah sat across from the both of us. We were making small talk until Ray came over and sat down. "You will never believe who I caught making out near the library!" He said as he looked at us. We looked at him but didn't say anything, "well are you gonna guess?" He asked next. "Oh, I thought you were just gonna tell us" Elijah replied, Ray groaned inwardly "okay, okay, don't guess, I'll just tell you". I watched him sit up a little, "Jessica and Tyler" "no" Jacob said, "yes" Ray replied. "But Jessica's a slut, ain't she?" Elijah asked curiously, "yeah" Ray answered.
