JANUARY 14th
I wasn't sure how I feel about all of this.
When my landlord told me we'd be getting a new inhabitant to our shared accommodation house in the new year, I was, in honestly, indifferent to the notion.
We already have Sugar Si (named so because of his sweet nature), fat Clair (named so because she's fat), and Ethan (named so because his name is Ethan). I didn't think we needed another member to our, rather dysfunctional, household.
But there he was, stood in the doorway of the house at 7:30 in the morning. It's was earlier, but I was up - a day away from work hadn't put a snooze on my internal body alarm clock.
I found it a little pleasing that he had rung the doorbell. He had a key to the place, this was his house now, but he rung the bell; this showed me my new friend had manners.
"You must be Jonah?" I greeted with a smile.
He was tall, taller than I expected. His eyes were bright, and his lips... If i could find the words to explain how gorgeous his lips were, I'd be years trying to find them.
I couldn't really tell what type of body he had under his clothing, but if his face was anything to go by, I had a feeling that I'd be trying to catch a glimpse of him coming out of the shower.
"Yeah." He smiled back, as i gestured him into the house. The only belongings he had on him where in a large brown suitcase, that he struggled to carry in.
"Your room is upstairs and the first one of the right, just by the bathroom." I smiled at him.
He didn't say a word to me. He nodded and took his case up to his room. This is where I started to get pissed with the idea of the new housemate.
I'm not too sure how this is going to pan out...
JANUARY 15th
I like this new housemate. He can stay.
Last night, after a pretty awkward first encounter - by awkward, I mean he went straight to his room and stayed in there for half the day - he decided to come and join me for a bit of crap telly watching in the living room.
I was already in my usual armchair by the time he came in. He took a seat on the far end of the sofa and lounged - I was going to say something about his feet being on the sofa, but he was a bit too pretty to say something horrible to, so I decided against it.
The programme he had walked halfway in on was a programme named "Buns." It wasn't the best programme in the world, but I loved it. It told the story of three gay, and one bi, friends trying to survive in London.
Jonah had just joined me at the start of a, rather steamy, sex scene. As the clothing of both young men on the screen came off, I turned to Jonah.
"Are you okay watching this?" I asked.
"No problem with me, mate, watch what you want." He didn't seem to interested, he focused more on the phone that he had taken from his pocket.
"You sure? I don't mind putting something else on? There's meant to be a good film on the other channel?"
"Honestly, mate, I'm fine with this, just wanted to come down here for some company more than anything." Jonah smiled.
I left him to his phone and turned my attention back to my programme, and then I saw it. Just out of the corner of my eye, in Jonah's direction, he was fidgeting.
I turned my head, only a little, to see what the commotion was about. His trouser region had become a little uncomfortable, apparently.
Then, I realised what was going on. Jonah was enjoying it, he was enjoying my programme. More to the point he was getting hard over it.
He was gay, or bi in the least, and he was, to my knowledge, available.
