《Brains and Brawn (BxB)》Chapter 19

Matt's POV:
We're making out.
Leo and I are making out.
In school... not necessarily in public but still.
I know we're probably one of those couples that escape in the middle just so that they can go make out in a dark corner, but who cares?! Honestly, I don't. Leo is such a good kisser. I have nothing to compare it to, but I just know he's a good kisser.
So...here we are, about twelve minutes until it rings for the first class and I'm leaning against a row of lockers, my arms around Leo's neck and Leo's arms around my waist. And it feels great. But really, if we don't get a move on soon, we're gonna be late. And, with that thought in my head, I reluctantly pull away from him a little and touch our foreheads. His eyes are still closed when I say,"Ok, that's it, we have to go to class...we wouldn't want to be late now, would we?"
Still with his eyes closed he answers, "I don't care, let's just skip or something."
I laugh a little at that. Leo and I have been officially dating for about two weeks and it couldn't be better. I haven't had any trouble in school. Actually, everyone's been the same. No one really pays attention to me in the halls or anything, well, except for Ben, who still, sometimes, pushes me when we pass each other in the halls. But that's ok, I can deal with it, it's perfectly normal.
"No, we cannot skip, because I'm working for a scholarship, and, as much as it sucks sometimes, I can't skip."
He sighs and hides his face in the crook of my neck, "Ok fine...I guess that's fair..."
We stay like that for a while, in silence just enjoying each other's company and closeness. When he finally raises his head to look at me, he's smiling, and so am I. How can I not? I'm way too happy and Leo is amazing.
"Ok," he say. "let's make a deal."
I chuckle at that, " ok, tell me stuff."
"Will you come to my game tonight?"
I'm a little surprised at that. I've only been to one of his games, and it's not like I mind, todays is friday after all, so I guess I could, but I'd have to ask Mrs. Pemberton to babysit Chris.
"I guess I can try, I just have to see what to do with Chris... I'll call Mrs. Pemberton and then I'll say something, ok?"
He frowns a little and I hate that I was the one who put that frown on his face, but there's really nothing I can do...
"Yeah, I guess that's ok, I mean, I get it and I'm not mad or anything, I know you're doing what you can so...it's all good, I still like you."
I blush and look down like I do everytime he says anything related to liking me- as stupid as that may sound, I still can't believe he likes me. It sounds unreal.
He chuckles and is about to kiss me again when the warning bell goes off signaling that we only have 5 minutes to get to class.
Leo groans and takes my hand, "come on, I'll walk you to class."
"No, that's ok. I don't you to be late."
"Are you saying you don't want me to walk you to class?"
I laugh, "that's most definitely not what I'm saying, I just don't want you to be late because of me."

"I won't if we hurry, so come on, move that cute little butt of yours and let me walk you to class."
Knowing it's gonna be practically impossible to make him change his mind, I let him walk me to class. So, here we are, walking hand in hand to class. Once we get there, I turn to him and thank him for walking me to class with a small peck on the lips, not wanting to start a make out session in the middle of the corridor, but he seems to have another idea because just as I turn around, he grabs my arm and turns me around gently to kiss me again.
"I'll see you at lunch," Leo says smiling and turns around and goes off to his own class.
------------------
"So, I talked to Mrs. Pemberton," is the first thing I say when I sit down at our lunch table.
Leo looks at me expectantly, "ok...and...?"
"She says Chris can stay there and he's spending the night too, so that I don't have to worry about hours, so we're good!"
"Great!" He says with the most breathtaking smile.
After that, lunch went by normally. Harry became a regular at our table, which is fine with us, no one seems to mind, in fact he seems to get along with everyone and says we're a lot more fun than his drama club friends. He flirts a whole lot with Carter, who still doesn't talk a lot, but frowns a little when he is being flirted with.
Jessie also started having luch with us most of the times, and she does look like she hates Laurel a lot, and no one ever really disagrees. Good news is that she gets along with Macy famously now and so she's no longer worried about going on missions to look for female friends, to which John and I thank Jessie for.
We also met Charlotte, John's girlfriend, who turned to be amazingly kind. And also got along super well with Macy, which only contributed to her not needing to look for more female friends 'cause now she has two new ones. They bonded over their love for TV shows.
------------------------
When classes were over, I waited for Leo by my locker, like we previously agreed. He said he wanted to ask me something before the game, so now, here I am, waiting for my boyfriend.
"Hey!" Think of the devil...
"Hey," I answer and he pecks me on the lips as a greeting.
"So...the reason I wanted you to wait was to know if you would like to hang out after the game? The team are gonna have a party after the game at Ben's house, but I know you don't exactly like him, so I was thinking I would only stop there for a while and then we could go on a date?"
"Is this the reason why you picked me up this morning? Because you wanted to hang out after the game?"
"Guilty as charged..."
Damn, he's too adorable, I can't stay mad at him, and I will most definitly not say no to his question. "Sure, that sounds great!"
He looks so happy after I give him my answer that I just want to kiss him! Then I remember that I'm his boyfriend and that I can kiss him if I want to, so that's exactly what I do, I pull him down to me and kiss him, with him immediately kissing me back.
After a while we pull apart, not wanting to start an intensive make out session in the middle of the school hall, even though there aren't many students still lurking around.

"Ok, I should probably go now, to look for a good spot and all that," I say.
"No need, Macy and John saved you a spot at the front."
I smile at him, "ok, but you have to go anyways, to get dressed and all."
"True, but there's just one more thing I wanted to ask you..." he looks nervous and hesitant when saying this, and I frown a little, worried for what he wants to say.
"Is everything ok?" I ask concerned.
"Yes, yes, I just...wanted to know if you - and it's ok if you say no - but I wanted to know if you would umm, use my jersey? For you know...support and all that. Besides the others players are mostly dating and their partners all wear their jerseys, so I was wondering if you wanted to..."
Is he kidding me right now?! " Of course! I would love to! No need to fret!"
He thanks me - for some reason - and takes his extra jersey with the number 12 out of his back pack and hands it to me. I take it with a smile and put it on. He looks at me for a while and then kisses me.
Once that was over, we both went our separate ways.
-------------------------
We won the game. The foxes won the game. I could see Leo's happiness radiating off of him even though he didn't laugh or smile. He did smirk a little though and everytime he scored he would point at me and wink, to which I smiled and sent a kiss every time. He pretended to catch them and put them in his pocket.
Now the game is over and Leo and I are going to Ben's house for the after party, after having celebrated their victory for a while in the school.
Leo says he'll only go in for a few minutes and that I could wait in the car, but if i did want to go in, that he'd stay with me the whole time.
So with that, I went in with him, not wanting to be a party pooper, and maybe this way he won't feel obligated to leave earlier because of me. I don't him to stop spending time with his friends because of me, that would make me feel terrible.
It actually isn't so bad being in the party with Leo, he made sure I never felt uncomfortable, and held my hand or kept some sort of contact with me the whole time, and while he drank a beer I had a coke. He assured me he would only drink one beer seeing as he would be driving after, which I really appreciated.
Now, we've been at the party for about an hour and a half, and I'm dancing with Leo, and stealing a few kisses here and there, but I'm not complaining, I actually really like to dance with him, he's a good dancer.
When it's been two hours into the party and we've socialized enough with everyone, including my friends too, that were also there, unsurprisingly, we decided we would leave, seeing as Leo was taking me to the movies for our date. It's a common thing to do for couples so I don't mind, besides I love going to the cinema.
The ride there was silent, but not uncomfortable, just both of us enjoing each other's presence.
We agree on watching the new Avengers movie seeing as we're both huge Marvel fans, so it wasn't a hard choice.
Honestly I thought we would spend the whole movie making out, like couples usually do when they have dates in the cinema, but both of us were too into the movie to even take our eyes off the screen, so none of us even made a peep, well except for me...I cried a little in the end, but no one needs to know... except Leo, who, of course, noticed. We did hold hands through the whole thing though.
When the movie ends we spend the whole time talking about the movie, both having loved it.
Once we both finish our talk about the movie and are back in his car, he asks," I have another questin to ask: well, seeing as you don't have to watch over Chris until tomorrow and only have the afternoon shift at the coffee shop, I was wondering if you would like to spend the night at mine? Besides, I don't want you to go just yet."
I have to admit, I got a little nervous at that. I know I've spent the night at his place before, but this time, he's my boyfriend, and I'm not sure I'm ready for anything more than kissing.
He seems to notice my inner struggle because he squeezes the hand he's been holding and gives me a smile, "hey, don't worry, we don't have to do anything you're not ready for, it's just to sleep, I just want to spend as much time with you as possible."
"Ok, I would love to, then," I accept.
Only when we get to his house do I notive that it's already 12:30 am. Wow, I'm not even tired yet.
I keep forgetting how huge Leo's house is, I get surprised everytime I see it.
We go up to his room, careful not to make too much noise as to not wake anyone up, and get in.
"Do you want to take a shower, before changing into sleeping clothes?" Leo asks me once we're in his room.
"Umm, yeah sure, but I don't have clothes so..."
"I know, I'll lend you mine. Here," he says and hands me a pair of sweatpants and a plain black T-shirt. " You can use my bathroom, I'll use the one at the end of the hall, so if you finish your shower before me, you can just wait for me here. Oh, and if you want to charge your phone, there's an extra charger in the first drawer of the bedside table, so feel free to use it. Oh and your toothbrush is still there, so you can use that too. It's the green one in the cup. "
And with that, he gives me a kiss on the cheek and leaves with a smile on his face and spare clothes, that I'm guessing are his pajamas.
I do as he told me and put my phone on his bedside table charging. After that, I take the clothes and go shower.
I don't really like to take too long when I shower at other peoples houses so I get ready quickly and get dressed, exiting the bathroom and putting my folded clothes on his desk chair, so I don't forget them tomorrow.
Just I do that his bedroom door opens and I look behind me, and there stands Leo in all his shirtless glory, "do you always walk around your house shirtless?"
He chuckles and starts walking towards me, putting his arms around my waist and asking, "Why? Does it make you uncomfortable?"
"No, not at all... besides it's your house, do whatever you want."
He checks me out for a while, from head to toe making me blush, then touches his forehead to mine, "Damn, babe, you look good in my clothes, you should wear them more often."
I chuckle a little pushing him slightly on his chest, "Shut up."
He laughs," Come on let's get to bed."
And that's when I start getting nervous. I mean we've slept in the same bed before, no need to get nervous. Besides, Leo is trustworthy and he said he wouldn't do anything I'm not ready for. So, with that thought in mind I go over to the bed and lie down next to him. Feeling a little more confident, I get close to him and lay my head on his shoulder. He chuckles and puts his arm around me, making blush.
"Hey, you good?" Leo asks.
I look up at him to assure him that I was indeed great, but ended up being a big mistake, because we're a lot closer than I thought, and his lips are oh so invinting, so I do the only thing I can think of at the moment. I kiss him.
It starts slow and inocent, but then I put my hand on his chest, because he's still shirtless, and it's not making things easier for me, and he groans and lifts himself up so that he's overing over me, supporting his weight on his arms, that are on either side of my head.
I put my arms around his neck and pull him down so I can kiss him again, and he eagerly kisses me back. We stay like that for a while, but then I put one of my hands on his hair pulling a little while the other one explores his exposed torso. He seems to like that, seeing as he groans, making me moan a little too. We break apart for a few seconds only to allow him to take my shirt off and then we lie down again, but this time, instead of kissing me on the lips again, he starts kissing me down my jaw all the way to my neck. I would be lying if I said this didn't feel good, because damn it does. He finds my sensitive spot when I gasp a little and starts kissing it, for sure leaving a hickey there.
When he seems content with his work, he goes back to my lips, but I rool us over so that now I'm on top of him, 'cause he was probably starting to get tired of hovering over me all this time.
We make a little more exploring each other's bodies and kissing and moaning, when my legs give out a little and our lower parts touch each other, making us both moan intensely, because that felt way too good, and I realise that maybe we're both a little too excited, and even though right now I would let him do whatever he wants with me, I didn't lie when I said I wasn't ready yet.
So I break apart from him and say, "we should probably stop now..."
He still has his eyes closed and takes a while before clearing his throat and answers me, with his voice a little more hoarse than normal, "Yeah, you're probably right, besides it's getting late anyways."
"Do you ever think that maybe we make out too much?" I ask with a smile.
He chuckles slightly, " No such thing. Besides, have you seen yourself?"
I roll my eyes at that, but still have a smile on my face and my cheeks redder than usual.
And with that, I lie down again and put my head on his chest once more, while he puts his arm back around me and just like that, we fall asleep.
