“Thanks a lot!” Tan yells at Lin as she’s talking to Erica and Ronnie in Sven’s backyard
“That’s not how I pictured you saying that” she turns to him
“What happened?” Erica asks
“Lin and I made a deal that if I talk to Sven and make him feel better she’d talk to Cyrus”
“What’s the problem? We just saw her talking to him”
“She even got his number” Ronnie adds
“Yeah, I did bitch!” They all cheer her on and start to high five
“Good for you!” Tan yells getting the attention back to him “but Sven just kissed me upstairs!”
“What?!” They all ask shocked
“We were talking in his bed and there was a moment and he kissed me” Tan explains
“You were in his bed?!”
“Tanner Milton I said to make him feel better”
“Those weren’t very clear instructions!” Tan panics “now he kissed me and I’m gonna make it weird”
“You don’t have to,” Ronnie says
“It’s Tan he’s gonna make it weird” Erica chuckles
“Thanks so much, Erica! None of you are helping! What do I do?”
“Avoid him?” Lin guesses
“Yeah that’s smart you should avoid him” Ronnie agrees
“No fuck that!” Erica disagrees “he kissed you fool so if anyone should act weird it’s him. Now how was the kiss?”
“Amazing! I mean it was only like a second but it felt amazing”
“Then I say you do it again and again,” Lin says
“And again” then Erica
“And a-“
“Stop it!” He cuts Ronnie off “you guys this isn’t good I’m not ready for this”
“Why not Tan? You’re obsessed with Sven” Erica tries to calm him down
“I don’t know if obsessed is the right word” Tan denies
“Yes, it’s the right word! You’re panicking because something you’ve always wanted is finally happening, why is that a problem?”
“Because…” because he’s falling for Harris Wheeler, but he can’t tell them that.
The party ends and Tan lays in bed the next day thinking about his kiss with Sven, a kiss he’s wanted for so long but now feels guilty because it’s like he’s cheating on Harris. Is he even with Harris? They slept together on Wednesday but haven’t spoken since, he’s been so busy with school and helping Sven with the party he completely forgot about Harris.
Picking up his phone Tan dials Harris’s number calling him. “Good morning” Tan greets first when he hears the phone is picked up
“Good Morning” Harris replies walking in his house after his Saturday morning run “how are you?” He asks putting his keys down
“I’m good just miss you, how about you?”
“I’m good and I miss you too. I’m glad you called I wanted to talk to you about something”
Tan sits up getting interested “I’m listening”
Walking to his kitchen for some water Harris starts “I got a new client yesterday for a case I can’t discuss with you, but my client is a teacher at Knoxville high school”
“My school?”
“Yes”
“Wait who is it?” Tan asks shocked
“I can’t share that either you’re a student there, I just wanted to tell you as a warning because I might be coming to your school sometime next week to speak with your principal.”
“You’re coming to my school?!” Tan slowly start to freak out “where my friends are?” The people he’s been lying to
“I know it’s bad that’s why I’m telling you now so it’s not a surprise, I’ll let you know the day I’ll be there and we’ll just have to avoid each other.”
“You know I won’t be able to right? And my friends know me we’re gonna run into each other and they’ll see it, I can’t hide that from them. It’s easy to lie when you’re not around but you know I can’t control myself when I’m around you Harry”
Harris smiles “I know and it’s the same for me but this is my job and your school so we’re gonna have to be on our best behaviors, okay?”
Trying to hold in his panic Tan replies “okay.” Tan says ok but in reality, he wants to scream. How is he going to handle being under the same roof as Sven and Harris?
“I know you didn’t call for that”
“I didn’t, I called to ask if you wanted to hang out today?”
“Hang out?”
“Yes it’s a thing young people do sometimes, I was wondering if you’d like to try it.”
Harris laughs “sounds interesting, what does hanging out intel exactly?”
“We can Netflix and chill”
“Netflix and chill?” He asks
“Yes” Tan chuckles
Harris sits on his couch and Tan lays back down “what is Netflix and chill?”
“Netflix and chill is exactly what it sounds like”
“We watch Netflix and we chill?”
“With a twist” Tan grins
“A twist?”
“Yes, we can fool around”
“I love twists”
They both laugh “so are you in?”
“I am, we can order in”
“Spending the day with you sounds amazing”
“Then get here already”
Tan jumps out of bed excited “be there in an hour” he remembers his parents are home “maybe two.”
Opening the door Tan walks out of his room walking towards the living room and kitchen, the closer he gets the more he could hear his mother “I asked you to do one fucking thing! Why can’t you listen when I speak Scott?!”
“Because when you speak you think you’re saying words but all I’m hearing is screeching noises!” Tan hears them yelling at each other.
“Fuck you, Scott! I can’t fucking stand you”
“Morning” Tan says standing at the entrance of the kitchen
“Next time I fucking ask you to do something why don’t you put down the fucking phone and do what I ask!” Shiela continues and they both ignore Tan
“Tell you fucking what! When you start acting like a fucking wife and not a dictator I’ll listen to you, but till then it’s all white noise, Sheila!”
“You’re son… right here” Tan stands waving his hands in their direction
“Yeah hi Tan” his mom waves him off then ends the argument “keep it up Scott” she angrily walks past Tan going to the bedroom.
“Umm, can I go to the mall with my friends?!” Tan yells behind his mom
“ASK YOUR FATHER!” She yells slamming her bedroom door
Tan turns to his dad “can I go to the mall?”
“No” Scott walks away
“Why not?!” Tan follows behind him
“Because it’s nine in the morning and you’re mother is already on a rampage, and if I have to deal with that so do you” he walks to his office.
“That’s not fair! You got her mad you deal with her, can I just please go I won’t stay out too late?” Standing in front of his father’s desk watching as Scott sits down Tan waits for an answer. “Please dad”
“Fine Tan go.” Rushing out Tan gets ready and walks back into his father’s office as he’s working “what Tan?” Scott asks still reading his file
“I need money”
“What’s wrong with your debit card?”
“I don’t know if you guys forgot I existed or you’re just cutting me off, but no one’s wired any cash on my account in weeks.”
“Fine I’ll transfer some money to your account right now”
“Great thanks.” Tan leaves.
Walking up to the Everett building Tan sees Jerry “good morning Jerry”
They smile well Tan was already smiling, he’s going to see Harris he can’t help it “good morning, back again?”
“I am” Jerry holds the door open for him “thank you” he walks to the elevator.
Hearing the doorbell as he dries his hair with a towel Harris walks out of his bathroom in jeans and no shirt, his hair is still wet and the towel rests around his neck. Opening the door Harris sees Tan “you’re wet” Tan watches the water drip from his hair running down his chest
“I am I just got out of the shower, come in.” Tan walks in and Harris shuts the door “glad it didn’t take you two hours to get here”
“Me too.” They move to each other and Tan instantly reach for Harris’s hair, Taking Tan in his arms Harris slowly wraps his lips around Tan’s and as soon as they touch Tan was ready to jump his bones. Pushing Harris against the door Tan tears the towel off Harris’s neck and takes his jacket off. Harris keeps his eyes in Tan’s watching as he takes his jacket off. Incapable of controlling himself Tan starts to kiss Harris and grind on him against the door.
“Woah woah hey we’ve got time” Harris lightly pulls Tan away
“Sorry” he breathes heavily “I can’t help it you just taste so good” Tan goes back in kissing him again.
Tan’s moans vibrate against Harris’s lips as they kiss and Harris finds it harder to pull Tan away this time, mostly because he doesn’t want to. He wants to take Tan right here in front of his door but he knows he shouldn’t, at least not yet. “Why is it so hard to pull away from you?” Harris asks
“Maybe because you don’t want to” Tan replies kissing his pecks
“I don’t” Harris shuts his eyes as Tan’s soft lips kiss his chest
“Then don’t” Tan whispers kissing lower.
Almost reaching Harris’s jeans Tan gets on his knees and Harris pulls him up “pace yourself” then walks away. “How was your week?” Harris asks disappearing to his room leaving Tan high and dry.
“Great it was great” Tan rolls his eyes walking in “the basketball team lost the championship yesterday, my parents are still fighting no surprise, and as always I’m ignored” he left out kissing his crush.
“I thought you said it was a great week?” Harris walks back out with a shirt on
“I’m almost done with the yearbook” Tan gives him some good news
“That’s good, how’s yearbook going?”
“Do you really care Harry?” Tan asks as a joke
But Harris turns to him serious “of course I do, I wouldn’t have asked if I didn’t.”
“Okay,” Tan smiles trying to lighten the mood “yearbook’s fine we got all the pages filled, we just have to send it to get printed by next week then we’ll have them in two weeks.”
“Good so what’s next?”
“Prom” Tan knows it would make it weird and as soon as he said it, he felt the change in the room
“Has anyone asked you?”
Tan shakes his head “shocking right?”
“It is” Harris answers honestly.
“Not really the guys at my school are either too straight or too trapped in a closet to acknowledge anyone else. So instead I’ll be going alone with my friends assuming they don’t get dates”
“Don’t worry I’m sure someone will ask you.”
“I’m not worried” Tan grins wrapping his arms around Harris’s neck and they tease each other with their lips “how was your week?”
“It was miserable I couldn’t see or talk to you for most of it” Harris kisses him and Tan gets eager wanting more.
They move to the couch, Harris lays between Tan’s legs kissing and touching his body making Tan moan and gasp.
After a stressful week and breaking up Tan and Harris knew there was nothing either wanted more than to be with each other and they’re finally getting that.
