001

Damien..... Damien.... are you even listening to me" a hand was waved across his face

"no am not, I'm ignoring your presence and what ever you said a minute ago" Damien replied as he flipped his locker open and started stuffing his books inside

"come on it'll be fun...." the voice insisted

"I don't do crowds, mason" Damien replied, shutting his locker and leaning against it "and you know that" his voice barely but a whisper but enough for the other party to hear

"I know.... that's why am going to be with you, I won't let you out of my sight" sincerity evident in the voice

Damien stood in silence as he looked at his best friend who was eager to hear his reply. Mason has been begging him to attend the party of the week but he had made up his mind not to go. reasons which he knew and so did mason.

Not getting a response from Damien, Mason let out a sad sigh as if understanding that he Couldn't change his friend's mind

"okay fine, I'll go"

"what.? really" mason questioned as if he had heard something unbelievable

" yes" Damien replied happy to see a smile on his friend's face

"haha, thank you, you won't regret it" mason promised as he hugs damien

"I better not" the smile still on mason face despite his aloof tone

"pick you up by 8 then" mason asked as he let go of Damien

"yes by 8, if your late you can forget it" he replied as he turned and left mason to Stand alone

"I'll be on time" mason shouted grabbing the attention of people nearby

****

Damien stood infront of the mirror, looking at the boy in a black sweat pants and a white t-shirt that stared back at him. He was dressed casual a way to make him feel comfortable and less nervous than he was. He wondered how he had allowed him self to be swayed by his best friend. He shouldn't have agreed to this he thought as he fought back the urge of calling mason to cancel so he could just stay at home to sleep. But as if telling him that wasn't possible a familiar horn sounded.

He took one last look at himself not at all displeased by the lack of effort he had put in before quickly taking his favourite hoodie and dashing downstairs. Taking a deep breathe before existing the house

"you know for a minute I thought you would cancel" mason spoke playfully as he took of the helmet

"you know me all to well" a smile on Damien's lips as got on top of mason's cool bike that screamed expensive

A chuckle escaped mason lips as he handed Damien his usual helmet "hold on tight to me"

Not less than 30 minutes, they had arrived safely to the door of where the party was being held and Damien guesses where confirmed as he heard the excitement and screams coming out of the house

"yup we are definitely at the right place" Damien nodded

"come on let's go in" mason urged as he firmly took a hold of Damien's hand and lead him into the house

The noise inside was a lot louder than one could expect but Damien wasn't surprised what did you expect when a couple of kids threw a party. He knew this was just the beginning but he could feel a headache coming on from the loud music that was playing which if he wasn't being honest didn't make a lot of sense to him

"Yo people the big dog mason has finally decided to grace us with his presence" someone shouted informing the crowd of mason arrival

"Yo mason"

"whatup big dog".

a couple of greetings where aimed at mason. Both from some girls who threw him flirtatious gazes and some guys coming to see him as he led Damien into the kitchen all while never letting go of his hand

Damien subconsciously held on tighter as his eyes scanned the crowd, observing and taking in as much details of every thing as possible

"Someone's pretty popular" Damien couldn't help but tease as the entered inside the kitchen. surprisingly it was only the two of them there

"what can I say with this handsome face how can I not be" mason grinned

Damien couldn't help but roll his eyes at mason narcissist behavior "oh, shut up"

"come-on...." mason dragged as he slowly approached Damien who was leaning by the counter, the smirk in his face getting broader with ever step he took.

Damien watched as the gap between them closed. his eyes caught and held captive by boy's sky blue eyes.

"you gotta admit it" mason whispered into Damien's ear. Placing his hands on each side and trapping him

"admit what...." damien asked as he unknowingly straightened his back as he looked forward. His body tensed a bit at how close the male was to him

"that.... am.... handsome" mason slowly whispered into his ear again. His hot breath sending shivers down Damien's spine.

"As if!" Damien scoffed pretending to be mellow as he tried to get his beating heart to calm down

"your ear....." Mason trailed off

"Huh..? What happened to it" Damien questioned

"Nothing.." mason shook his head

"Then...." Damien pressed further

"it's just really red right now " mason laughed as he withdrew his face from the side "you have sensitive ears which is really cute. your cute" he said as he finally stopped laughing and looked at him

"don't call me cute" Damien finally woke up from the trance he was in.

"I will" mason retorted as he suddenly brought his face closer to Damien's own. Making the boys heart to skip a beat.

Damien's breathe hitched at mason's action and he couldn't help but wonder why his body was acting strangely today

"fine, what ever not like I care anyway" Damien replied aloof as he tried to look any where other than the face inches away from him.

Mason grinned at the boy as he watched him stare into the air "alright I'll spare you fod now" he informed as his hands flew to Damien's raven hair. He couldn't help but rub it a bit"

"your messing up my hair" Damien complained as he snapped to look at mason but not making any signs to stop the fellow

"oh really?" an amused look om mason face as looked at the boy for a couple of second before removing his hands and turning towards the fridge

"coke right?" mason asked despite knowing the answer

And as if hit with something, Damien eyes widened "always"

"a beer for me then"

Damien sat on top of the counter his eyes fixed on the man in black as he opened the fridge.

"mason...." a high pitched voice called out grabbing the attention of the two boys

mason turned to look at the direction of the voice. He was more than aware of who it belonged to and so did damien

"Damien?" the voice sounded a bit shocked

the male in question waved at her as mason walked towards him with their drinks

"Stacy" mason greeted

"you actually made Damien to come?" a smile played on her lips "you did well, well done"

"thank you" mason responded as he opened his beer and gulped it. his lips gently spread apart.

"what makes you think it's cause of this baboon over here, I could have came on my own," Damien argued, clearly irritated by the smile on mason face

"haha! yh right.... and I could have wings and fly across the galaxy" a retort came from Stacy's mouth as she headed towards the fridge and back with a beer in hand

mason bursted out in laughter and immediately earned himself a side eye from Damien

"I don't get why people come to one of this when they could be at home" the raven hair spoke

"doing what? sleeping?" Stacy rolled her eyes

"yes sleeping" he exclaimed happily

"oh my god, who sleeps by..... 7" Stacy exclaimed after confirming the time on her phone

"I do!!"

"that's why you, my friend need to get a social life" Stacy sighed as she walked over to him and patted his shoulders

"I don't need one" Damien shrugged, taking a glup of his drink

"Yes you do....." Stacy argued

"I don't. I have you and mason" Damien explained "and that's Enough"

"Awwww..." Stacy hugged him "that's so sweet but doesn't change the fact you need to live more"

"I do live more"

"Yh right" Stacy answered sarcastically as she stopped hugging him

"okay okay guys... we should be out in the living room enjoying the party not in this kitchen" mason finally spoke, interrupting the two friends' banter

"mason's right. I need to get me laid"

"what?" Damien asked shocked as he looked at his friend

"I need to blow off some steam,.okay" Stacy explained before finishing up her beer and walking out the kitchen

"is she for real" Damien asked as he looked at mason who just laughed and raised his hands up

"come on let's go have fun" mason shook his head as he held Damien's hand urging him to get down

"okay..."
