MATT'S POV:
"Happy two months of being my boyfriend," is the first thing Leo says when greeting me in the morning while handing me a box of chocolates. "I know we agreed on not giving presents or anything,but I saw your favorite chocolates on sale an thought 'why not?'"
"Thanks Leo. Now I feel bad for not giving you anything, though," I answer smiling.
"Don't worry, you can repay me by having dinner with me today," he proposes with a goofy grin never leaving his face.
"I would love to but Ch-"
"My mom will look after Chris, I already talked to her about it and she more than agreed. She loves Chris and you," he says.
"I don't know... I feel kinda bad for always ropping off Chris,I don't want him to feel like at every time I have, I drop him off somewhere. He's my responsability," I say sadly.
"Ok, first of all, you only drop him off sometimes," he says while resting his hand on my cheek to make me look up at him. "And you haven't dropped him off anywhere in at least two weeks. I miss you, we haven't hung out in a long time and I think today would be a good time. And you can afford to take a break sometimes too, you know? You might have to look after Chris, but you're still a teenager, you deserve to have fun sometimes too."
"Ok, fine, you're right. If you're sure your mom doesn't mind."
Then he gives me the most breath taking smile ever , that lights up his whole face, "awesome! Can't wait. You can go home and change and do everything you want to do, and then meet me at my place with Chris, sound good?"
"Yeah," I answer smiling up at him.
I'm about to kiss him, when we're interrupted by the bell, meaning it's time to go to class.
"Seriously?" Leo complains, seemingly exasperated.
I laugh at his antics and decide that, seeing as we're already late, might as well make it worth it. So with that thought in mind I walk after him and tap him on the shoulder and as soon as he turns back to me, I grab his neck an pull him down to kiss him.
It was supposed to be a short kiss, closer to a peck than a make out session. But one thing led to another, and the hall is empty, us being the only ones there. I still don't know how long it was until we broke away from each other.
"Well, guess I'll see you later in detention," Leo says a little flustered, but with a smile on his face and his eyes twinkling.
"You know," I say as he starts to walk to class again. "we're already late, migh as well make the best of it..."
"What are you saying?" he asks, still smiling.
"Feel like skipping first period?"
"Wait, are you serious? I know how you feel about school and you have like, perfect attendance, I don't want you to regret anything..."
"I'm a teenager, right? I should sjip a class at least once. So... you in?"
He laughs, "Am I in? Am I in?! Of course I'm in! Are you kidding? Go to boring history class or spend it with my absolutely awesome and gorgeous boyfriend?"
"I don't know, you tell me."
"I think the choice is pretty easy," he says. "Well, see you later."

He starts walking away and I laugh and run after him, jumping on his back, "Ok, then, maybe I'll just go find someone to smooch..."
And with that I try to jump off his back, but he seems to be having none of it because he holds my legs tighter, keeping them wrapped tightly around his waist, and starts walking outside. I don't know where to go, seeing as I've never actually skipped school, and therefore on't really know the best places to hide and not get busted, so I decide to just trust Leo and go along to wherever he's taking me.
Enventually, I realize where it is that he's taking me-the football field.
"Why did we come here? Is it too out in the open?"
"We're not staying here, I'm not dumb. Just trust me."
"Ok, but if you're thinking of taking me under the bleachers to make out under the bleachers like some slut, then you are very wrong, mister," I say.
He laughs, "don't worry. You're everything but a slut. Or have you forgotten that you're my boyfriend? 'Cause I would be quite offended if that was the case."
"Don't be a smartass."
He laughs again and puts me down. I was so distracted with our bickering that I didn't even noticed where he brought us. It's not the best place or the most romantic, but it's nice. It's a little patch of grass, with a tree and a few wild flowers and dandelions here and there. Ok, I take it back, thisplace is awesome.
"What the heck," I whisper and then turn to Leo, "are we still in school?"
"Yup!" he says with a proud smile, "most people don't know about this place, I don't know what it is or what it used to be, but it's behind the locker rooms. I stumbled upon it a few years back when I was being yelled at by my coach."
"Oh, it's actually quite nice."
"I know. Now, I believe I was promised a few kisses..." he says smugly.
I laugh, "I think you need hearing aid then, because I certainly don't remember saying that."
"Ok...fine. Maybe you didn't , but it was implied, now...a little kiss," he pucker his lips in an exagerated way waiting for me to kiss him.
I didn't even think of denying him the kiss with him being this adorable.
And when I realize what's happening, he's alreay sitting down on the grass with his back against the tree and with me straddling him, and a make out session in progress.
Like I said, we probably make out way too much, but who cares? I certainly don't, he's good at it.
----------------------
As the last bell rings, signaling the end of the school day, I'm already more than excited for my date with Leo.
I go to my locker to put away some of the books, only to find Leo leaning against it, typing away on his phone. When I reach the locker, he looks up when he hears me and smiles, putting his phone in his pocket an giving me his full attention. Go, he's amazing, an unfairly attractive.
"Hey, babe," he greets, pecking me on the lips.
"Hello," I answer smiling.
"So, you reay to leave?"
"More than ready."
"Ok, then I'll see you at my place in say... half an hour? Or do you need more time?"
"I think that's enough time, yes."
We say our goodbyes for now and each make our way to our cars.

I get in and choose the music and start driving towards Chris's school, only to see him already waiting for me outside with Mike and Oliver.
"Hello, Matt," Mike says when I get to them.
"Hey, Mike, what's up?" I answer and Chris comes running to me an jumping into my arms.
"All good, how's your life going?"
"Good, good..."
"Matt," Mike starts, resting a hand on my shoulder while his other one is still holding Oliver's hand. "I know I used to flirt with you all the time, but you're still my friend, and if you need anything , even if it's just talking , you can count on me. You still have my number. Besides, I've moved on...got myself a date. Her names's Julie, you'd like, you're both nerds."
I laugh, "Thanks Mike, I appreciate it, for real. Besides I would never stop treating you like a friend."
"That's good to know. Anyaway, I'll let you go now. See you around."
And with that we part. I go home to shower and change and pack a bag for Chris with his toys, so he'll have something familiar with him and we leave.
The ride to Leo's house was only about 15 minutes, and when I get there I knock on the door and wait for someone to answer, only to have Olivia to answer.
"Matt! Dear, you haven't visited in so long! How are you?" she asks hugging me.
"I'm good Olivia, and I know, but I've been a bit busy with school and work and all. But how are you?"
"I'm good, I'm good honey. Come on in. I'll take Chris with me to the kitchen, I just made cupcakes, you can go up, Leo is in his room."
"Thanks," I thank, then kneel down next to Chris, "you good?"
"Yes, don't worry big bro, I like Mrs. Olivia, she's nice!"
"Ok then," then turn to look at Mrs. Bryant again, "thank you for looking after him again, really, call me if he's any trouble or something, really."
"Don't worry, Matt, go have fun, we'll be fine."
I nod reluctantly and go up to Leo's room, only to see him coming out, dressed in denim skinny jeans and a tight black shirt with a black leather jacket over it.
"Hey babe, you ready?"
"Always," I answer with a smile when he reaches down to take my hand in his.
"Then let's go."
And with that we're off, after telling Olivia to call me if anything happens and to not give Chris any more candy than what he already had or he wouldn't get any sleep at night.
Leo, once again, refused to tell me where we were going, so for the whole ride I kept asking where he was taking me, trying to annoy the answers out of him, but not once did he budge, he just seemed amused. The bastard.
So, when I wasn't annoying him, we just spent the ride listening to music and singing like maniacs while holding each others hands. When we got tired of that, we decided to play 21 questions (even though I'm pretty sure we went over 21 questions) with the weirdest options we could think of. Basically it ended up being a pretty fun ride, so much so I didn't even notice the ride was about an hour long or even my surroundings. Only when I got out of the car did I notice that we were actually on a beach.
"You have the greatest date ideas, I swear to God," I say when I look at the view in front of me. And I wasn't lying. Seeing this view is breathtaking, the sun is setting low on the horizon, the beach is basically empty, with the exception of a few people who seemed to have the idea as Leo, and the weather, although a little windy, it's not unbearable.
"Let's get goin'?" Leo asks.
I turn around and look at him, a basket in hand along with a few blankets, "You sure have a thing for picknicks don't ya?"
"What's not to love?"
I laugh, "True."
We start walking to a more secluded part of the beach, looking for some privacy, and eventually we reach one of the ends, next to a cliff and surrounded by rocks. Usually I would think that this isn't the best idea, cliffs can be dangerous, but then again, there's no sign or any warning saying that it's unstable, so we start setting our things down in our "fortress" of rocks.
Leo lays the blanket down on the sand and starts taking out the food. Nothing out of the ordinary, just some sodas and sandwiches, fruit, cake and cookies, "Wow, that's a lot of food."
"I like to be prepared, now come on, get your cute butt over here and sit down."
I laugh and do as says, settling down next to him. He immediately settles a blanket around my shoulders and kisses my cheek and we start eating. The food was good, nothing special, but with us both being teenage boys, it was gone in a matter of minutes.
We decided, after eating, to just lay down on the picknick blanket, with my head resting on his chest and his arms wrapped around my torso, both covered in blankets, just looking at the stars and enjoying each other's company.
A while later, when the moon was high in the sky, and the stars out and shining, and with Leo playing with my hair, he asked, "you like stars and astronomy, right?" when I nod in answer, he continues. "Anything interesting tonight, that you can show me?"
"Actually yes," I say, and start to get excited from it. I love talking about this, "Seeing as we're mid December, we can actually see a few constellation, like Aries, which is latin for 'ram' and it's one of the twelve that form the zodiac. In ancient times, that gave the constellations of the zodiac special significance. It's formed by only four, sometimes five, visible stars, that create a line from the ram's head and down it's back. Right there," I grab his hand and try to point in the general direction of the constellation. "See?" He nods in response and I continue. " Hamal is the largest and most visible star, and it's classified as an orange giant, that is a star, approximately 15 times the diameter of the Sun but burns cooler than the it, which is why it has an orangish hue to it. It was discovered to have a planet about 1.8 times the size of Jupiter in its orbit. And man, that's awesome." I look up at him, only to see him already staring at me, with a soft smile on his face."Sorry...I was rambling, I umm, get carried away sometimes..."
"No! Don't even dare apologize! I've never seen you talking so passionatly about anything, and it was beautiful. You get this sparkle in your eyes and a smile on your face, and I loved hearing you talk about it. It was great, you should talk about it more often," he says and I blush, looking down. "Don't look down, you look adorable when you blush," he chuckles when I roll my eyes. "I l-"
He was about to say something else, but seems to think better of it and cuts himself off.
He looks so gorgeous right now, that I don't think twice about leaning up and kissing him, throwing one leg on each side of his waist, so that I'm straddling his lap, with him still laying down.
We keep kissing for a while, before I pull away, "We should probably get going, 'cause, you know, it's still like, umm one hour until we get home, and we have school in the morning."
"Yeah, mmh mmh," he says distractedly and puts one hand behind my neck, pulling me down again. I'm not even mad that it's getting late, and that we're probably going to spend the whole day tomorrow sleep walking, because right now, it feels way too good to deny. So I don't. I just keep kissing him, with him slipping one hand under my shirt and the other on my butt. I start trailing down, kissing his cheek, then his jaw and finally his neck, looking for that one spot. I know I found it when he moans and squeezes my butt, thrusting his hips up and accidentally (Or not so accidentally) grinding on me. Oh, boy, that was good. I keep sucking and licking and kissing his neck, for sure leaving a hickey. I pull back a while later, admiring my handy work, and I'm surprised by the final result.
I'm startled when suddenly Leo flips us around, so that now he's the one hovering over me, "did you just give me a hickey?" he asks in mock annoyance, but I can tell he's actually amused and even pleased, that I did it.
I surprise him when I turn us around again, but this time, my hands are under his shirt, slidind my hands up until they're resting on his shoulders, pulling the shirt upwards with it. He sits up, with me still straddling him, and fully takes off his shirt.
I push him back down gently and star kissing him again, but this time, when I leave his lips to start kissind down his neck, I don't stop at his collarbone, I keep kissing down, paying special attention to his abs, because damn, those are marvelous. When I reach the waist line of his pants I look up to him, silently asking for his approval. When he gives me a slight nod as the needed confirmation, I keep going.

The Destiny of a Mortal God (Hiatus)
Currently on hiatus, in part because I'm unsatisfied with how the story was starting to develop, and even though I had ideas how to run it, I still made mistakes far too big to correct them. Secondly I'm currently stressed about university, and sincerely, I don't see myself keeping this project. I may or may not retake this project or even start a new one, but one thing's for sure, it isn't happening anytime soon (Meaning until june, aprox, or until I can keep up with class). ... Lyon Ironblood, 19 years old and orphan, is taken by Kronos from the present Earth to another world, where he shall fight and struggle to get stronger so that he shall acomplish the mission Kronos assigned him. He shall fight gods, demons, dragons and monsters and even mortals who surpass those. But to do so he shall receive, though only after he proved himself worthy, a power beyond imagination. This power will not be handed freely to him, and he'll have to work hard to develop it. He shall receive the X-Men System. A magic system designed to enhance Lyon and give him the mutations from the X-Men serie. He shall start from scratch, with powers that will seem less than a mere human, and develop them with effort, to surpass the gods. [I don't claim ownership of any of the X-Men powers or characters, neither the cover, only thing I claim are the ideas which make the story and put together their powers, how they'll develop from scratch to even higher worlds than they were suposed on the series, other than that, all X-Men characters named (which I'll try to avoid to a certain point) are not of my property]
