When Pigs Fly! =D

ummm...yeah i tried writing this and then i accidentally exited it out and now I have to rewrite it...again i'm bored xD what's more, IF ANYONE FINDS GAY-NESS BAD, DON'T READ IT!! xD

   "H-hey! Wait! Where are you going?"

   I stomped off out the house into the backyard. It was cold as the north pole outside right now so I grabbed my coat before I stepped out the door. I yanked it on as I opened the door and that's when I realized this idiot was following me outside.

   "Leave me the hell alone," I muttered, slamming the door behind me, walking quickly to the amazingly cold forest that our house stood in front of. On nights like these I would usually stand outside alone, staring into the beautful starry sky. Now was definitely not the time to be doing this simply because I wasn't alone.

   The door opened but I was already at the edge of the forest and going in. "Wait!"

   I did not wait and headed into the instant inky darkness. I knew this forest well though and maneuvered easily past all the pointy branches that hung low on the various flower bushes and smaller trees. He actually followed me in and I almost growled in annoyance. I turned slightly to the northeast where it got even thicker and he just about lost track of me. I suddenly heard a gasp but kept walking. He'd probably hurt himself, but knowing him and how stubborn he was he'd keep on going just to get to me.

   I was fed up with the sudden talks about how strange our relationship was. It was far beyond unsettling now, it was just annoying. Did he want this to end or was he just being an a*s?

   I'm not turning around right now at that, I thought angrily, walking still deeper into the forest. I'm going to keep going until I don't hear him.

   I stopped then when I noticed it had become extremely quiet. There was no other noise besides my steps and my breathing, no other sights but the barely noticeable clouds of my breath coming forward. I sighed, creating a huge puff in front of me, and plopped right down onto the cold forest floor.

   Who am I kidding? I thought, hanging my head between my knees. This in itself is ridiculous. I can't stand it though, when he talks like that. Ten times in one week is just annoying. Does he want some magical answer from me or something?! Even I don't know what exactly to say about this amazingly strange relationship that could possibly get me kicked out of my family.

   Two guys flirting with each other when no one was looking would probably get us kicked out of the community, if not the state, possibly even the country depending on how shocked and repulsed most of the community would be if they were to find out that it had been a secret in the first place.

   It had started out as nothing but secret glances and silly conversations but had somehow escalated to late night meets and then to sleepovers when my parents were gone. He was older than me and that would anger everyone even more. He'd already graduated from high school and was a freshman attending a good college. I was in my last year in high school and had already intended to enter the same college as him before we'd met; it was such a renowned one that my parents practically demanded I enter.

   The silence was starting to become slightly unsettling. I stood up reluctantly and started walking the way I'd come. I was not about to be charged with something like manslaughter because I'd let him freeze to death in the middle of the forest in the dead of night.

   I found him sitting on the floor himself, breathing steadily and holding his arm. It was bleeding and I could see a shred of his sweater stuck to a branch on top of him. I almost laughed but remembered that he didn't know this forest well enough to have avoided the branches the way I did.

   "No wonder you got quiet," I said, sighing. "Come on dummy, I'll clean that up inside." I extended my hand even more reluctantly. "I'm not about to be charged with manslaughter because I let you bleed and freeze to death outside."

   He looked up at me and actually smiled, adding to my annoyance. He grabbed hold of my hand and I jerked him up with more force than he expected.

   I motioned for him to follow me and we walked south towards the dim backyard light. We emerged from the forest finally, and just as I was beginning to feel relieved that I was getting rid of him sooner he added to my frustration.

   "Before we get inside, seeing as you won't listen to me right now," he said, making me twitch. "Can you tell me what this is?"

   He meant the secret relationship we were involved in. Then again, it wasn't even a relationship because we hadn't even proclaimed as much to each other. We just met up with each other and talked like normal people would, only with the occasional touch on the cheek or passionate kiss.

   "What do you want me to say?" I asked him back, glaring, though I wanted to smack him or at least make his wound worse. "Well?! Do you think a high schooler like myself has some magical answer for this?! I don't have a damn clue what this is, and in a way, it seems like you don't intend to figure it out." I looked at his arm now that there was light enough to really see it and grimaced; it wasn't one big gash but multiple scratches. "Come on d****t, you'll get an infection or something if we stay out here."

   He followed me silently back into the house, the one thing he'd done right this night. We walked into the house and I hung my coat on the rack next to the door. I walked him to kitchen and stopped to turn to him.

   "Stay in here while I get the first aid kit from the bathroom, alright?" I demanded, already leaving. "And hold your arm over the sink or you'll stain the floor with your blood."

   I walked quickly to the bathroom and noticed that there was blood on my own hands from grabbing him up off the floor. I washed them quickly and took the kit from underneath the sink.

   When I walked back into the kitchen I was grateful that he'd already done most of the work for me. He'd removed his sweater, placed it on the counter on top of a dish towel and was rolling up his sleeve carefully over the sink.

   "Thanks for doing most of the work for me already," I said, opening the kit and bringing out the gauze and hydrogen peroxide. "Now don't bite your tongue, this might sting quite a bit."

   He held his arm over the sink and breathed deeply to avoid yelping with pain, which did't help much because he ended up biting his bottom lip and groaned in pain as I poured the peroxide over the wound. It frothed white, meaning I was getting rid of as much of the infection as possible. I patted it gently with gauze and poured more over it. There were a total of nine cuts on his arm, all about the same size in length in the same area and they all crossed each other, making it more painful.

   Once the froth had mostly cleared I spread as much disinfecting cream as was needed.

   "Damn that burns," he said out of nowhere, startling me. "Why on earth did you run so deep into the forest like that?"

   I answered immediately, "Because I knew you wouldn't be able to follow me the whole way." I huffed angrily, placing seven pieces of gauze on his scratches. I turned and pulled out the medical tape and wrapped it around his arm over the gauze. "You're just annoying is mostly why."

   "Sorry, didn't mean to," he said, the continuing conversation irritating me further. "I didn't think you'd snap like that."

   I almost dug my nails into the scratches. "Look, you a*s," I said, shutting the kit once I'd returned the gauze, cream and tape. "I can obviously agree with you that this whole thing is awkward beyond belief, but if you're going to bring it up everyday and not get any further than 'this is strange', it's going to get pretty damn annoying. You should seriously add a point to personal things like this, it makes them that much more interesting and understandable."

   He was staring at me like I'd surprised him. Now I really wanted to hit him but I controlled myself, knowing that this would only get worse if I did something that irrational. He opened his mouth but closed it, biting his lip again. He looked worried, which was starting to worry me.

   "What do you look so worried about?" I asked, surprising myself with how quiet my voice had come out. I actually relaxed when he looked down. "You want to stop this or say something productive?"

   He snapped his head up and wrapped his good arm around my shoulder. I almost pushed him off but realized he was shaking, which worried me even further.

   "Look, I know this is going to sound just a little awkward, but," he paused, as if he were nervous. "I really don't want to stop seeing you. I have no proof that we can make this work without someone finding out but I would like very much to keep seeing you this way."

   I didn't know why that overjoyed me. Did I also want that? I suppose so, despite the pressure of keeping it a secret. I removed his arm from my shoulder and looked up at him-damn him he was taller than me.

   "You know what," I said, narrowing my eyes and smiling, I was being overly cocky about all of this. "I think that was the first most definite thing you've said to me in a while." I made the daring move of kissing his cheek. "I think I'd like it too if we kept this whole thing going as well."

   "But do you think we should tell anyone?" he asked, smiling back tentatively.

   I laughed lightly, then laid my forehead on his shoulder. "How about when pigs fly? They would never accept this and besides, I think we both like living here as free men."

   "Good point," he said, smiling into my hair. "Sorry about earlier, I just haven't been able to think straight since we met."

   "I've noticed as much,"

Gayness lol XD
jk
it was good I liked it :D!!

Other then some small grammer issues that i've already forgotten about, I thought this was a well developed story that rang with alot of tenderness and the normal fears the gay men must deal with.
Kudos for writing such a piece.

I loved the discriptions of the world that these two characters find themselves in. It makes their situation so much more evident and the problems they face and the inklings of things to come in their lives.

Great Write!

that was pretty neat. Kinda random too. The whole time I was looking for the tip off that tells you "I'm a guy". Pretty funny too; the whole time the guy just wants to smack his boyfriend.

Oh, my favorite line: "...I haven't been able to think straight since..." XD.

Firstly, this is well written and captivating! Feelings and and emotions are splattered all over the story which gives a good image of the irl situation. I understand frantic feelings when gay-ness, as you call it, is concerned. I like your term better than homosexuality, because, being derived from Latin, when translated literally, it would mean: humans loving humans. We as a species are called 'homo sapiens' (the knowing man) But apparently we do not know all that much! Gay-ness has a lighter tone to it and suggests pleasure, not some clinical illness or deviation.
Secondly, if I had children, I would prefer them telling me they are gay over the fact that they have been involved in a school fight... Why do some people have more trouble with to people of the same sex making out and think it is cool that their kids have been involved in a fight because 'it is cool to be able to stand up for yourself'?
I am glad you wrote this piece!
