I wanna know what love is chp 11
They all got back to the house and settled down, DeMarco ordered take out because everyone was growing hungry. Jules's body was starting to get sore so he decided to take a hot shower until the food arrived. He walked into his bathroom and stood in front of his vanity to take his clothes, he noticed the scar of the side of his rib cage from his surgery, he broke down crying after trying to hold it in for so long. He didn't hear Dustin walk up behind him and wrap his arms around his naked body, Jules turned to face him, rested his head on Dustin's shoulder and cried some more.
"You wanna tell me what's wrong?" Dustin asked.
Jules shook his head no.
"You know you can talk to me about anything right?"
Jules nodded.
"I'm here for you; whatever you need I got you"
Jules nodded again then turned the shower on the climbed in, Dustin took off his clothes and climbed in with him, Jules started to protest but Dustin told him he wasn't there for any funny business. He kissed Jules softy and hugged him tight as the hot water cascaded over them and the steam filled the glass shower enclosure. Dustin proceeded to wash Jules using lavender body wash; he started by massaging Jules' neck and ears and then moved down his back. Next he washed chest and stomach, caressing his nipples and belly button; he squatted in the shower and began washing Jules's ass cheeks, spreading them to make sure he cleaned the inside.
Next he focused on cleaning his cock and balls, Jules slowly started to grow semi hard but Dustin didn't want this to be about sex, he wanted it to be about love and relaxation so it took everything he had to ignore the beautiful cock that was in his face. He washed his legs then cleaned his feet, he stood Jules back under the water to rinse him off, then Dustin washed Jules's hair by massaging shampoo into his scalp. He moaned in pleasure as Dustin worked his head over; he rinsed the shampoo and turned off the shower. They climbed out and Dustin grabbed a towel to dry Jules off, he no longer looked hurt and distressed, he had a very relaxed smile on his face.
"You didn't have to do that you know" Jules said.
"I know I didn't but I wanted to"
Jules got dressed while Dustin pulled a pair of shorts and a tank top out of his gym bag and did the same. They walked downstairs just in time as the food arrived, Aiden noticed that the two looked and smelled freshly clean; he figured something happened and he shot Jules a dirty look. Jules saw the mean gaze Aiden was giving and was about to say something about it but realized he didn't have the energy to address something that might turn into an argument and decided to leave it alone for the time being.
Though Jules had a good idea what that look was all about. Aiden hated when Jules was close to a boy that wasn't part of the original group, he hated Christian with a passion when they were dating and cock blocked Jules at every opportunity he had. Even after the break up and after his mom died, every time they would go out and Jules would meet someone Aiden had interfered and put a stop to it. He didn't know that Jules realized what he was doing, Jules just figured it was him doing his so called big brotherly duty since that's the type of relationship they had, but the more Jules thought about it, the more he realized that Aiden only did it to him and not to his own twin sister. He never cared about any of the boys Amy brought home, and until recently, they were a lot. Aiden even had a problem with DeMarco in the beginning until he realized he was straight and not after Jules.
While sitting down to take-out Italian food, which DeMarco criticized for being unauthentic, Jules saw Kodi walking through the backyard towards the pool house. He wanted to introduce the new tenant to his friends so he got up and went out to back door and brought him in to meet the gang.
"Kodi these are my friends, friends this is Kodi" Jules said.
"Oh the guy you almost killed" DeMarco joked as he got up to shake his hand "are you hungry? Please sit, there's plenty"
"I'm starved, please thank you"
Kodi joined them at the kitchen bar and made himself a plate, Amy as her usual self, dove in with the third degree asking questions and gathering information. It's always embarrassing but you gotta love her for it. Kodi sat on the other side of Jules as he easily handled Amy's line of questioning, when she was satisfied the conversation turned towards the days recent events, Kodi was shocked to hear about the abuse of the young boy he has yet to meet but wasn't surprised by Jules jumping to his defense and kicking some ass.
"Always ready to protect, defend and serve I see" he said to Jules.
"To be honest" Amy answered "this behavior is very unlike Jules, he is normally very shy and quiet and avoids drama at all costs"
"Really? I never would have guess. The way you held that shot gun to my face seemed like you have been doing it for years"
"I know how to fight and I know how to handle most weapons under the sun, it doesn't mean that I like to. It was always my father's thing not mine" Jules said in a stressed tone.
"That was until recently" Amy said "now you're a different Jules, I'm not saying I mind, I'm glad you are standing up for yourself, it's a little shocking"
"I guess I'm just tired of the constant bullshit and nonsense, I've avoided it like the plague all my life and the end result was me being raped and beaten and left for dead. So I figure if I become aggressive like I actually know how to be, then maybe people will leave me the fuck alone" he said with a stressed look on his face, he got up and left the bar and walked out of the kitchen. Everyone tried to get up to go after him but Kodi asked if he could go talk to him, Aiden gave him an irritated look and sat back down as Kodi followed Jules into his father's study.
Aiden's irritation was turned into anger as he played with the food on his plate; no one seemed to notice but Amy. Dustin and DeMarco started their own conversation about the wrestling tryouts, trying to avoid the tension that was noticeably thick and coming off Aiden. His sister was also becoming irritated; but with her own brother, she was tired of trying to get him to see past his fears and go for what he wanted, but he was being stubborn and his jealousy was becoming noticeable to everyone around.
"Get your shit together and stop the foolishness before it starts or I'm calling Damian to deal with you" she threatened, Aiden didn't want that.
Jules was sitting in his father's leather smoking chair when Kodi walked in, he could sense that there was a lot going on in Jules's head when they first started eating and he wondered if some of it had to do with the nightmare he witnessed the night before, but not knowing how much Jules told to his friends he kept quiet, but now sitting in the study privately he wanted to discuss it with him.
"You alright Jules?"
"Just tired I guess"
"Then you should go to bed" he said with a grin.
"Emotionally and mentally tired"
"You want to talk about it?" Kodi asked as he sat down in the chair next to Jules.
"Not really, I'll be alright"
"I know we don't know each other, and even though I would like to change that, maybe talking to someone outside of your situation would help and I'm a good listener"
Jules looked at him thoughtfully for a minute, there was something about him he couldn't put a finger on but he trusted this unknown person. He began to talk to Kodi about his attack and then about the incident that happened to Caden and about the nightmares he had been having. Kodi listened intently and let Jules get everything he needed off his chest, Kodi suggested to Jules that he allow him to smudge his bedroom with sage and hang a dreamcatcher in the window next to his bed.
"I know it sounds very folksy and traditional Native American, but I believe in it and I think it might help or at least bring you a little bit of peace"
Jules agreed to allow Kodi to do his ceremony that night before he went to bed. Suddenly Jules got a call on the house phone; he took the call as Kodi left to join the group in the kitchen. Corrine was on the phone to inform Jules of Caden's status, she told him that he was fine considering. His leg and wrist were broken as were a few of his ribs, Jules asked about him coughing up blood and wondered about internal bleeding, she told him that he wasn't coughing up blood but spitting up from his mouth. A few of the punches and kicks landed in the faces and cut up the inside of Caden's mouth. She told Jules that Caden will be home the following day and is asking to see him and Dustin. When Jules got off the phone; it rang again almost instantly after hanging it up. When he answered it, Damian was on the other line.
"Brother, are you ok?" Damian asked.
"Yes brother I'm fine, why do you ask?"
"I just got a feeling"
"You're psychic, I know you are"
"So something is wrong"
Jules told Damian everything that happened that day; Damian was shocked to hear that Dustin had gotten into the fight with him. Damian was fully aware of who Dustin was, the friends may not have talked everyday or seen each other often but they emailed on a constant day to day basis, Jules even sent Damian a photo of Dustin to which Damian said he would be happy to take him of Jules's hands if he didn't want him anymore. They both got a kick out of comment but Jules knew he was being serious, and rightly so; Dustin was sexy. The got off the phone after making promises to Skype the following evening, Jules walked back into the kitchen to tell everyone that Damian said hello. Kodi, DeMarco, Dustin and Amy were still sitting at the kitchen bar talking and enjoying themselves but Aiden was sitting on the couch in the family room brooding like a child.
"Aiden, what's wrong with you?"
"What do you mean?"
"Answering an obvious question with a question is a classic sign of avoidance"
"I know reading all those psychology books this summer was a bad idea"
"What's wrong with you Aiden" Jules asked sitting next to his best friend/big brother and looking at him in the eye.
"Nothing, is wrong with me, seriously"
"I think that's bullshit" Jules said getting annoyed "The dirty looks at Kodi for sitting next to me and the staring daggers at Dustin since you met him. What did I just say about nonsense and bullshit and me being over it?" Jules got up and walked away from Aiden without waiting for a response.
The following morning; both Dustin and Jules went to pay Caden a visit, his mother led the way up to his room where he was resting. He was propped up on a pillow with is leg in a cast all the way up to the knee and a cast around his forearm. He wasn't wearing a shirt to your could see his small frame, he had dark bruises all over and one of them looked like a shoe print, Jules gasped when he seen it.
"I wanted to thank you guys for what you did for me" Caden said.
"Don't mention it, it's not that big of a deal" Jules said.
"It is a big deal; I honestly think they would have killed me"
Hearing caused Jules to tense up, Dustin grabbed his hand and stroked Jules' palm with his thumb. Caden seen the display and frowned but quickly caught himself hoping that they didn't see it, after taking a few deep breaths he asked if he could speak to Jules alone. Dustin said he hoped he felt better soon and Caden thanked him again for saving his life, Dustin walked out of the room and Jules closed the door then climbed in the bed with Caden and put his arm around his shoulders. Caden smiled; happily to finally be touching Jules and laid his head on his shoulder.
"Can I ask you something Jules?"
"You can ask me anything, anytime, anywhere"
"What's going on between you and Dustin?" he asked matter-of-factly.
"Wow" Jules said shocked by Caden's question "To be honest, I have no idea. We aren't officially together or anything but we like spending time with each other and he makes me feel special, he makes me feel wanted"
"This is hard for me to say because you know how shy I am, but I like you Jules. I like you a lot" Caden said looking at Jules "I can make you feel special, you are special. You are my hero, you saved my life twice"
"That took a lot of guts to say that and I will always come to your rescue whenever you need it, us small guys have to stick together" Jules said hugging Caden close to him with one arm "and to be honest Caden, I have thought about you and I"
"You have?" he asked surprised.
"Of course I have, you're cute, you're a great guy and we have loads in common but I don't think it would work for us right now"
"Oh" Caden said defeated "Is it because I'm only 14 because I'm turning 15 soon?"
"That's partially it, plus I'm a senior and you're a freshman and I'm graduating soon plus I come with a lot of baggage if you know what I mean"
"Wait...you said right now" he said with a smile "So that means that maybe in the future there could be something between us"
"That's exactly what I'm saying Caden, I think you need to experience some stuff before getting into a relationship with me because what I'm honestly looking for, I don't think you would be able to handle and that wouldn't be fair to the both of us"
"So let's say maybe in a year or so, you and I could go on a date?"
"Never say never" Jules said smiling at him.
"But I don't want to loose you until that time" he said as his eyes started to water.
"You will never ever in your life, never loose me. You are stuck with me now man, I'm not going anywhere, and I want us to be the best of friends"
"You mean it?"
"I never lie, you can call on me day or night, you can come to me with anything and you don't have to rely on your sister to be your only friend. Plus my friends love you too, you are always welcome at my home and I welcome it as a safe place for you anytime day or night, I want you to start hanging out with us more too, we have a lot of fun together"
"Ok I will, I promise" Caden said beaming at him.
Jules got up and walked to the door to leave, as he opened the door he stopped short and walked back to Caden. He leaned across the bed and grabbed his face gently not to hurt him and kissed him deep on the lips. The kiss lasted a good thirty seconds before he pulled away with a smile on his face, Caden turned beet read as his mouth fell open.
"At least I can say I have the honor of being your first kiss, and an honor it was" Jules said as he walked out the room leaving Caden smiling so hard his face must have hurt. ********************************************
Jules spent the rest of the weekend hanging out with him friends and included Kodi into the festivities, Jules was worried that a college guy would have a problem hanging out with some high school kids, but Kodi seemed to be enjoying himself. Saturday, after visitng Caden, Kodi broke out his guitar and played for the group as they lounged around the family room.
Jules and Dustin seemed to be getting closer, much to Aiden's dismay and they had no problem showing affection to one another infront of Jules's friends. They constantly found the need to be touching, theres legs would have to be rubbing or their hands would always seem to find each other or Dustin would wrap his arms around Jules and hold him close. Jules loved the attention he was getting, all he wanted was to be close to someone and feel safe when he was with them and Dustin gave him what he wanted and didn't ask for anything in return.
That Sunday, Jules let his friends sleep in late and surprised everyone with brunch. It was customary for Amy and Aiden to spend the weekend at the Barrett household but they hadn't had a formal Sunday brunch since Jules' mother was alive. Jules thought the occasion was special because DeMarco and Dustin both had spent the night as well.
After brunch was over, the friends settled down in the family room to watch a movie. DeMarco and Amy were cuddled up on the couch and Dustin sat on the floor with Jules sitting between his legs. During the movie Dustin wrapped his arms around Jules and started kissing the back of neck causing Jules to giggle, Aiden gave them a dirty look but no one was paying attention. Dustin started nibbling on Jules' ear causing him to squirm, he faught really hard not to moan out loud.
"Get a room" Aiden said slightly annoyed, Jules ignored him but Amy shot him a look that was clearly meant to tell him to shut the fuck up. Jules leaned him head to the side so Dustin could kiss him on the lips, they started to make-out and giggle finally pissing Aiden off.
"C'mon I said get a room, go somewhere with that" said irritatedly.
"What did you just say?" Jules asked angrily, Amy went to say something but Jules put up his hand to stop her before turning back to face Aiden, but he didn't answer.
"I said, what did you just say"
"I said go somewhere with that"
"Remember who's home you're in Aiden"
"I don't wanna see you guys making out Jules, c'mon"
"You're in my house Aiden, mine. If you don't like what I do in my home, get the fuck out" Jules said suddenly turning livid.
"What the hell is your problem?" Aiden shouted. Amy and DeMarco were getting scared, Jules and Aiden never argued ever and the way Jules has been coming into his own lately, they were worried something crazy might happen.
"What the hell is my problem? What the hell is your problem?" Jules yelled "You do this shit every damn time Aiden, every time I'm with someone or showing interest in someone you can't fucking deal with it, it's like you don't want me to be happy. So now you see me becoming happy in a time when I need it the most and you wanna act like a dick to me. I said I was tired of the bullshit and the drama and the last person in the world I need it from if you"
"Fine then, I'll leave"
"And don't come back until your attitude has changed"
Aiden got up and left while Jules between Dustin's legs and fumed over the argument, Amy got up from her seat and extended her hand for Jules to take. She lifted him to his feet and pulled him into the foyer to give them a little privacy.
"Don't Amy, I don't wanna hear it. He was wrong and I'm not in the mood for anyone's bullshit when I got my own to deal with"
"I know he was wrong be he's in love with you" she said.
"I know he loves me but that doesn't give him any right to be an asshole..."
"No you don't get it" she interupted "He's IN love with you"
"What?....no he isn't...that's crazy...what?....no...wait what?" he stammered.
"Think about it Jules; he hasn't had a girlfriend in over a year, he hasn't even gone on a date. He gets angry everytime a guy tries to come near you and if by chance they do, he cock blocks them at every turn. All his free time is spent with you, not because he has to but because he wants to"
"He's not in love with me, he acts like that to other guys because he's like my big brother"
"Bullshit, I'm his twin and he doesn't do that with me" she said. Jules knew she was right about that, he had the same thought a few days before.
"He's not in love me Amy, he's not even gay. I would know if he was gay, he would tell me. He wouldn't keep something like that from me"
"Come on Jules, stop being stupid, I know you see it" she said shaking him by the shoulders "Besides, he admitted it to me...and Damian...and DeMarco...and I think your dad might know too"
"What!"
"Be mad about us not telling you later, you need to go talk to him"
Jules stood there staring at Amy for almost a minute trying to figure out if she was telling the truth. "Of course she's telling the truth" he said to himself. He ran out the front door looking for Aiden but he wasn't in the front yard. He ran to the end of the drive way and looked down the street but still didn't see him, he looked in the direction and finally spotted him. He was a few blocks down the road, almost to the main street, Jules had to run to catch up to him.
"Slow down" Jules shouted, but Aiden ignored him.
"Please wait"
"Why?" he shouted back.
"Because appearently you are in love with me" Jules said as he finally caught up to him. Aiden stopped, he was stunned by what Jules said. Jules knew his truth and he was too afraid to make another move.
"Is it true? Are you in love with me"
Aiden nervously turned around and faced Jules but he couldn't say anything.
"Please Aiden tell me, is it true" he said anxious for an answer.
Aiden looked pleadingly into his eyes and nodded.
"No, I need to hear you say it"
Aiden couldn't say it, he wanted to but his mouth wouldn't move.
"If you are in love with me, I need to hear you say it" he said stepping closer to Aiden.
"I'm in love with you Jules, I have been for a long time, I'm sorry I was being an idiot but I just..."
Jules cut him off by stepping closer to him. Jules was so short that the top of his head reached Aiden's chest, he stood on his toes and wrapped his arms around Aiden's neck and pulled him down so his face closer to his and kissed him. Aiden was shocked at first but then kissed him back, he wrapped his arms tightly around Jules' back and stood up straight, lifting Jules off the ground. They melted into the kiss, holding each other infront of someone's house in broad day light, with out a care in the world. They finally kissed.
