It was Thursday, after school tutoring day, and the temperature outside was starting to cool a little bit. I had to put on a light sweater before leaving the house in the morning. My friend Elizabeth came out from her class. I usually walk her to the junior parking lot and since it's on the way to the library, it wasn't much trouble. I was waiting at the end of the steps of the building, when I saw her grace through the doors.
"Oh, thank god," she sounded relived, "it's actually nice outside today. Not like last week, it was nearly 90 degrees for 2 weeks straight."
"I know, I'm telling you, its global warming." I said as I lightly chuckled, "At least we get to start wearing Fall clothing, even though this really isn't considered Fall; you know how I hate how my legs look in shorts."
"What are you talking about?! You have a pair of the most amazing legs and ass I have EVER seen on a guy; you're a dancer for Christ's sake. That's like saying I look horrible in a tank-top." She was right, at 5`8" with blonde hair and crystal clear blue eyes she could be a model, she was one actually, and knew that she looked good in anything she wore. She was also pretty right about me; I'm also only 5' 8" with "dancer's legs and ass" apparently, with black hair and green eyes.
"Yea... Well... I just don't like shorts..." I said trying to find a rebuttal for her statement as we made our way to the parking lot.
"That's a totally different story, dumbass." She said as she zipped up her navy Juicy Couture sweater and smiling at me.
I walked her all the way to her black 2009 Audi TT. She said that she was able to lease it thanks to all the modeling jobs that she had.
As we approached her car she started saying, "I'm going out with Christian tonight."
"Wait... Isn't he the son of... Liz you can't corrupt the one of the MAYOR'S sons!"
"Who said I was corrupting, we're just going out for dinner anyway... and who says that all the guys that I go out with are `innocent' victims." She said as she was finally able to find her keys in her gigantic Gucci purse.
I had to laugh, "I don't know what to do with you anymore."
She smiled as she was opening her door and throwing her purse to the passenger side. "And that's why you love me J." She was the one in the school that coined my nickname; "J" was short for Jacob.
I wave to her as she reversed and took off. I started walking back to the library; I remembered when I got to the gate at the pedestrian entrance/exit that I left the Biology books that I used to tutor in my car. Luckily, I was in no rush; I was one of the smartest kids in the school and still forgot my books, irony. I walked to my 2007 blue BMW, which was in the same lot as Liz's. My parents and I live comfortably, hence my car. I come from an upper-middle class area in Miami, although we used to have Shaq live next to us, it was mainly "normal" people in the area.
I opened my trunk and retrieved the books that I needed and started to head back to the Library. I walked into the library, and felt as if something was wrong with me. Alison the head tutor for Thursdays came up to me.
"Jacob, are you alright? You look a little pale." Her voice was one of concern and she had the face that matched.
I was able to come to rather quickly and replied, "Like that's possible. I've lived here my entire life and I'm still pale as a piece of paper," in my usual witty manner.
She just chuckled and looked relieved that I was okay. I followed her to a table that was known in the library as her "desk." She was digging through mountains and mountains of paper and with an "Aha!" she found her clipboard and handed me my schedule for the afternoon. I looked at it and saw that there was a new person on the list.
"Hey Alison, who's Devin?" I said with extreme curiosity.
"You probably know who he is, just not his name. He's the star hitter on the baseball team. The really tall one, that's always chewing gum. "I looked at her questioningly. "Tall, Muscular, super green eyes, and dark brown hair. He drives the red Porsche." I still had no idea who it was and starred at her with a glazed look on my face. "The one with the really nice ass." She said in a frustrated whisper.
"Oh! Him..." I said with excitement and a little bit of worry in my voice. Everyone knew I was gay; I never made an effort to hide it. But I can reassure you I'm not some super flamboyant dancer that has a lisp (no offence to you out there), I only have gay-ish tendencies. Since I didn't really know him, but I knew his ass really well (thank you baseball uniforms), I didn't know how he was going to react to my being gay. Does he even know I'm gay, does he even know me? Was he going to be one of "those" straight men?
"Don't forget the chemical equation for photosynthesis..." I said as I waving bye to Tony, one of my regular kids that came by on Thursdays. Then someone from behind, scared me half way to death.
"You must be Jacob." And there he was beaming with a smile; I nearly came in my pants. My Jesus, that boy certainly is gorgeous. He held out his hand. I nearly forgot how to move. After coming to I was able to shake his large hand.
"Yes, I am," I said smiling nervously "that's quite a handshake you have there."
"Oh, yea, sorry about that. I guess I don't even know my own strength." He said laughing and I of course followed suit; happy to notice that he didn't see the strain that he was causing my jeans to feel.
We sat at my usual table, he sat at the head and I sat adjacent to him, making sure that I was completely covered. He placed his book and his Jansport on the table and I was wondering as to why he was here.
"So, Devin, why have you decided to do tutoring now?"
I paid attention to every single word he said but I was lost in body. He knew how to wear clothes that made a point in showing what he had. His large torso stretched out, what I assume to be a large shirt and the sleeves were a nuisance to his biceps, holding on tightly for dear life. And the way his mouth moved, there was something very pleasant about it, his perfect teeth helped, I'm sure.
"Well, no offence, I'm forced to come here. I have below a `C' average in my Bio class and the school rules say that I must maintain a `C' or higher or some bullshit like that. So the coach said that I needed the extra help and he signed me up for tutoring."
"It's alright, I'm not offended. I'm sure no one wants to come to tutoring after school." I said trying to act as normal as possible and without drooling. "So, might as well get this over with huh, where are you having trouble?"
The boy was intelligent, I have to admit, something that I wasn't expecting. But Jesus, was he lazy, again something that I wasn't expecting. The kid can hit a homerun, run through all the bases and be ready do it through all nine innings, but he doesn't want to write a few simple notes! Other than trying to manage the amount of writing that was to be done, we got very far and we were actually able to get him mostly up to speed with his class.
"Thanks so much again, you were such a great help. But I think I will be back next week with a whole new set of problems." He said with a light laugh.
"Yeah, yeah. It's no problem," believe me it was not an issue whatsoever, "if you ever have problems again just come back next week or catch me in the hallways." I tried not to sound too eager.
"Alright, no problem." And with a wave he was on his way out. I hated to have him go, but damn I LOVED to watch him leave. His jeans were perfectly placed, just above where his ass began and were baggy enough to leave a little bit of mystery. I watched the red "for all mankind" label lightly swing from right to left, he also had the perfect step in his walk. Alison came up right behind me.
"Careful, I don't want my best tutor to drown in a puddle of his own drool." She said smirking at me. "Try to be a little less obvious next time."
"What?! I can't resist! It was right there in front of me. " I said only after being half scared to death.
"You're done for the day you can go home early and fanta-size all that you want all that you want to about Devin."
I gave her one of my best "Haha, aren't you funny" faces. "Like you aren't going to do the same thing, bitch."
"Me? No! I would never! Remember, I'm just the smart, lonely girl, in the library." She said sighing while placing her hand to her forehead and looking up at the ceiling.
"That likes to take guys into the copy room." I said giving her a shit-eating grin.
With her still placed on the top of her head, "TouchΓ©, and that was only ONE time." She lowered her hand, "You're never going to let me live it down huh?"
"Nope." I already collected my things and was on my way out. "Never in a million years. See you in Chem tomorrow."
