CH. 7 Who would have thought

CH. 7 Who would have thought

(Jesse POV)

I was surprised a lot today by many things.

One of them was what I was doing now; I was on the couch watching anime with another guy.

I enjoy watching anime, and this is the first time I have encountered someone who enjoys it as much as I do now.

Who would have thought that Jesse Hutcherman was intrigued by another man and was watching anime with him?

I turned to look at Ben sitting next to me on the couch.

We were watching an anime called Death Note, and I was trying to understand the plot and the concept of the anime while watching it.

"So, if he writes the name of a person name in the book, they die?" I asked Ben, trying to get an answer to my confusion.

"Yes. The person whose name he writes in the book dies as soon as he finishes writing their name." Ben said, eyes glued to the T.V. screen.

"How the hell do they die anyway?" I asked Ben again, who turned his attention back to me.

"The book is basically an evil demon book from hell, Jesse, so it's powered and basically causes the death of whoever name is written in it," Ben said.

"I'm also trying not to give you spoils on certain stuff." He said, causing me to run my eyes playfully.

I knew Ben was picking up on the fact that I craved getting spoiler alerts here and there, and he was unwilling to give me any.

"You think this anime is dumb don't you?" Ben asked me with a smirk.

I laughed at the look on his face.

"No, I just really like spoilers that's the only reason why I am asking so many questions.." I said.

"Yeah, I can tell." He said with a goofy look on his face.

"Did you want to pause watching Death Note and pick an anime? One I haven't seen but you have?" He asked me, pausing the episode we were on.

"No, we don't have to. It's okay." I said, not wanting him to stop watching an anime he enjoys.

"No, it's alright with me, it's an anime I've already watched and I am interested to see what kind of anime you'll pick for us to watch together." He said, giving me a challenging look.

Ben handed me the remote, and I took it from him, smiling.

I teased him about picking the best anime that would blow his mind.

He playfully rolled his eyes at that and scoffed. It was as if there was no way I could beat him with that.

I liked our little teasing, which meant we were getting comfortable with each other.

As I went through different options, I picked the one I knew would have him hooked.

"Attack on Titan," I said out loud, turning my head to stare at Ben to see if he approved.

He raised a brow at me. "I've never watched it, but I've read that it's pretty interesting. So why not?" he said, facing the T.V. again.

"Oh yeah, it's interesting, alright," I said, knowing that I had been watching the series and reading the manga. Attack on Titan is a show you have to prepare to watch. That's for sure, but I was interested to see what he would think of it.

I honestly had many things going through my mind at that very moment

I already knew I was falling for him; it was apparent that I was.

I wouldn't say I was Gay or Bi because he is the only guy I've found myself attracted to, and especially the only person I am attracted to right now.

I knew I was into him, but what could I do?

He made it evident that I wasn't his type. I don't think I'm his type. The way he talks about the Jock type and football players in general just shows that he wouldn't be interested in getting involved with one in that way.

I wanted to ask him what he would think of me in that way, and I wanted him to know that I was interested in him in that way.

I don't know the best way to ask him that.

So, I turned around and continued watching the anime with him, glancing at his facial expression whenever a scene popped up that I knew he would react to. I enjoyed those moments each time.

*3 hours later*

"Jesse, I think we've watched enough of this." I heard Ben.

I let out a laugh, not knowing what else to say. Three hours had passed, but I wanted to continue invading his space and watching more anime.

"Jesse," Ben said, catching my attention. In my best Titan behavior, I turned my head around slowly to stare at Ben.

"Ugh, don't do that. That's creepy. Don't ever do that again," Ben said with a horrified look; I chuckled at his facial expression.

"Alright, Ben, I'm down for us to binge this season, but if you have something to do. I can leave if you want me to?" I asked him, standing up and stretching.

I felt and heard my bones crack, giving me that great sense of feeling. A good stretch is always needed.

"I was wondering if you were hungry?" He asked me with a shy expression.

I was hungry; it's been a while since we ate, and I genuinely forgot about eating while watching the anime.

"Yes, I am for sure hungry. Are you offering to cook for me?" I said with a smirk on my face.

Ben got up and rolled his eyes. "I'll be in the kitchen." He says, getting up and walking towards the kitchen

I found my eyes lingering on Ben's retreating body.

I followed him into the kitchen, noticing that he was taking things out of the cabinets.

"What do you have in mind of making?" I asked him, interested in what he was going to make.

"Well, I'm going to make a baked chicken alfredo. Are you down for that?" He asked, walking towards the fridge and taking out some chicken.

I stilled, a smile appearing on my face. I was a sucker for a good chicken alfredo.

"Yeah, I'm good with that. It's actually my favorite." I said to him.

"That's great, it's mine also." He said, perking my attention.

As I watched Ben prepare the things he needed, my stare moved to the lip he was biting.

That did something to me, I don't know what it was or why, but I found a turn-on for him biting his lip.

I found myself walking towards Ben, who looked up confusedly.

It dawned on me earlier today that Ben had no idea how attractive he was, which blew my mind.

I stood before him, and he continued staring at me. I lifted my hand and rubbed a finger against his bottom lip, which alarmed Ben. He stared at me with wide eyes and a wary look.

"Can I kiss you?" I asked him.

"What?" He asked in a whisper.

"I want to kiss you, can I kiss you?" I said, making eye contact with him.

"Please," I said.

My voice sounded parched, I had no idea why, but all I wanted to do now was have my lips against his.

"Okay." Be said, and immediately as soon as he said that, I closed the distance between us and slammed my lips against his.

I groaned as I ran my fingers through his hair, the same hair I had been staring at the whole day.

I don't know if it was because he was shocked, but it took a while for Ben to start responding to my kiss, and when he did, I couldn't hold back the eagerness of wanting to twirl my tongue with his.

I pushed my tongue against his lips, asking for entrance, and a groan came from me again when Ben opened his mouth gently.

God kissing him felt amazing; touching him felt amazing.

Ben let out a whimper; it was the sexiest thing I've ever heard.

I moved my lips from his and trailed kisses down his neck.

I immediately felt Ben's fingers through my hair, which got me even hotter.

The kisses I was trialing down Ben's neck became me sucking on it. The noises that were coming from him were driving me crazy.

I want Ben in every way. I want him to be mine, I want to be in a relationship with him, and I want us to start dating. I felt a little nerve-wracking because this was all new for me, but I wanted it.

"I want you. All of you," I said to him. It was like a switch had been turned on. Ben immediately pulled out of my arms and distanced himself; he immediately ran out of the kitchen.

*Kassandra Speaks*

Woah, this chapter is interesting; my characters are getting closer and closer to each other.

Why did Ben run out of the kitchen?

The next chapter gets interesting.

It's exciting; until then, stay tuned. But Hey, comment, what do you think will happen next!!
