Isaac realised that tonight was going to be a night of firsts. For one, he did not spend longer than ten minutes getting ready no matter what the occasion was, tonight, he spent an hour getting ready. Secondly, he didn't go on dates, it wasn't anything personal, it was just that Isaac was kind of fucked up and people didn't handle that too well, but here he was sitting in his busted up car waiting to take Jake Harden on a date. Finally, there were rules when it came to dating, rules Freddy made up; don't date dickheads, don't date people who aren't into you, don't date someone if they treat you like shit and don't date jocks, they don't understand people like Freddy and Isaac. So, the fact that Jake Harden, jock extraordinaire, was getting in Isaac's car for a date was mind-blowing.

Jake looked amazing in an effortless kind of way, Isaac hoped though it wasn't effortless, and Jake spent as much time as he did getting ready. Jake smiled as he greeted Isaac with a quick kiss to the cheek. Isaac couldn't help the blush that flooded his cheeks, no one was ever that soft with Isaac. Isaac was smiling, no – grinning like a maniac as he pulled away from outside the Harden home.

"You look good." Isaac told Jake, turning his head slightly to eye Jake up again, enjoying that he could do that so freely, without Jake freaking out. It was just the two of them now.

Jake smirked at Isaac, before doing the exact same to Isaac and openly checked him out too, Isaac knew he looked good, he spent so fucking long getting ready, "You don't look so bad yourself. Your face looks good, not so bruised anymore."

Isaac laughed, his face had finally started to look normal again, the bruises on his face were now yellowish rather than black and purple, most of them had healed expect from the large one on his cheek and jaw. Most of the cuts had healed too, he had a scabby cut on his forehead and one in his eyebrow, aside from that he was mostly good as new.

"I know it's amazing isn't it, no matter what I look like I'm still crazy attractive." Isaac teased, winking at Jake. Jake thought he was hot and that's all that mattered.

Jake laughed, his arm moving to rest behind Isaac's head on the back of his seat, his fingers lightly playing with the hair on the back of Isaac's neck, "Always crazy attractive."

"I like that you think I'm hot." Isaac mumbled, not really knowing why he said it.

Jake looked at him, like he really looked at Isaac, before a small smile tugged on the corner of his mouth, his hand tightening in Isaac's hair, "I think you are way more than hot and I like that you like that I think you're hot."

Isaac flicked his eyes to Jake quickly, licking his lips and trying to desperately hide the smile that threatened to take over his face. Isaac had never thought he would want to be on a date with someone like Jake Harden, he never thought he would enjoy it as much as he was. It was insane how quickly he had fallen for Jake and he knew he did like Jake. There was no hiding from it anymore.

"So, where are you taking me?" Jake finally asked, Isaac had expected Jake to ask that the second he got in the car, surprised it had taken him this long to ask Isaac.

"Places, here and there." Jake didn't look pleased with that answer, "I'm kidnapping you basically."

Jake tightened his hand in Isaac's hair again, "The thing is with you, there is a chance you be kidnapping me."

Isaac laughed, no he cackled at Jake's reply, "I bet you secretly want me to kidnap you."

"I mean I don't think I'd be opposed to it."

Isaac nodded, he could definitely kidnap Jake, especially if he wanted to. Isaac wanted to kiss Jake, like he had never wanted anything more. Jake humoured him, enjoyed spending time with him and Jake had been the one to kiss him. Isaac wanted to stop the car and kiss Jake. A few more minutes, Isaac thought, then he would woo the pants off of Jake. Literally.

Isaac pulled over into a small clearing that sat next to a river, the only thing lighting it up was the headlights from Isaac's car. Although one was brighter than the other.

Jake looked a bit confused not really understanding what was going on, "I was fine with kidnapping, not sure how I feel about murder."

Isaac stretched his arms out in front of him, "This is our date wonderboy." Jake really looked confused, "I couldn't take you out in public without you freaking out, not that I have a problem with that. Just means that I had to be creative and google is really good at giving suggestions."

Jake's heart swelled, he couldn't believe that Isaac had done something so sweet for him, he couldn't believe it at all, "You aren't as awful as everyone thinks you are."

Isaac leaned over slightly, entering Jake's space, "Don't tell anyone, I have a reputation to keep."

Jake laughed as he nodded slightly. He turned in his seat to face Isaac better, taking one of Isaac's hands in his own, playing with Isaac's fingers. Isaac in turn watched Jake's face as he watched their fingers touch, like he was shocked he was holding Isaac's hand – holding a boy's hand.

"Shit hold on a second." Isaac said, tearing his hand out of Jake's, he leaned in between the front seats and reached into the backseat of the car, pulling out a Burger King bag, "Nearly forgot the food. Would have been a shit dinner date if I had."

Isaac chucked a burger onto Jake's lap and handed him a bag of chips, "I thought I smelt burgers, didn't want to say anything in case it was just the smell of your car."

Isaac chuckled at Jake, "I'm pretty sure my car just smells of dicks and sadness."

Isaac opened his burger and took a massive bite of it before turning to face Jake and grinned at him, showing him a mouthful of chewed up food. Jake pulled a face before pushing Isaac's face away. Jake followed suit, opening his burger and taking a bite. As he chewed he looked over at Isaac, who was watching the river the flow by and Jake was sure he had never seen someone so attractive. Jake was equal parts terrified and alive. He had been swept up in the Isaac Houton hurricane and Isaac had become the one person who could tear him apart and that terrified him, but he had never felt this way about anyone before, boy or girl. Isaac was fucking with his head and he was completely okay with it.

"You know, I've never been on a date with a boy before." Jake said breaking the silence, as he munched on a chip, Isaac turned to face him, shock all over his face.

"Boy? You think I'm a boy, I'm a man. I think what you should be saying is that you've never been on a date with a man." Isaac said, waving a chip in Jake's direction.

"Sorry. I've never been on a date with a man before." Jake teased, despite the teasing nature of his voice, Isaac could tell that Jake was nervous. He was staring at the bag of chips on his lap.

Isaac moved the bag of chips from Jake's lap and threw them into the backseat, followed by the food on his own lap. Once, their laps were clear, Isaac threw himself on Jake's lap. He straddled Jake's lap, his hands bracing the headrest behind Jake's head. Jake's hands fell onto Isaac's waist. He stared up at Isaac who was grinning down at him.

"I never been on a date with a man before either." Isaac told him, truthfully. Jake looked at him like he was the fucking sun and Isaac had never felt the way he did in that moment and nothing made sense.

"So, this is both of our first times." Jake said, smiling softly. Isaac nodded, one of his hands moving to the side of Jake's face.

Isaac leaned forward, his nose touching Jake's. He could feel Jake's breath hitting him in the face, he was practically breathing in Jake, "Can I kiss you?"

Jake didn't answer, he just tilted his head slightly to press his lips against Isaac's. That was the second time Jake had kissed Isaac now. It was soft and slow, reassuring in every way. No pressure, just being there with each other in that moment. Isaac's hand didn't move from the side of Jake's face, Jake's hands moved around Isaac's waist, gripping the back of Isaac's jacket.

Jake slipped his tongue into Isaac's mouth, Isaac moaned wanting more, wanting Jake. Isaac's hand fell to Jake's shoulder, when Jake moved his mouth from Isaac's lips to his neck. Jake pressed open mouthed kisses down Isaac's neck, he bit down on Isaac's pulse point. Isaac threw his head back a let out a moan, Jake nibbled and sucked at Isaac's neck. When he finally pulled away, Jake pressed a kiss at the purple hickey. Isaac was in heaven.
