Lost Bet 2: So That Happened.
"Shit!" Leo grunted multiple times as he wormed his way through the string web to get back to the other side of his room and throw on his clothes. I cleaned my chin and clothes with a towel I found on the floor.
"Who do you think it is?" Leo asked me.
"How should I know, it's your house" I replied.
"You don't have to be rude Daren just a-"
Leo didn't need to finish his sentence because we had our answer, the doorway swung open with such force it was almost as if Leo's father knew what we were doing. Once he opened the door and took in the scene a look of shock enveloped his face that might as well have said "if this shit isn't put back to the way I left it, I will kill you". Lucky Leo had just finished putting all of his clothes back on so those questions didn't come up at all.
"What the hell is this?" Leo's dad grumbled.
"It's a game dad" Leo started "Daren and me just thought that we'd-"
"Whatever you thought un-think it and take this yarn down before you mess up the fan." Leo's dad interrupted quickly "Now I just came back here to check up on you and see how you would be with the house to yourself for the night, but now I'm not sure if I can leave you alone for just one night."
"I'm sorry sir." I finally chimed in "This is just a game I play with my family a lot and I suggested it to Leo, it really is all my fault, but I'll be happy to help Leo clean all of this up and then be on my way home for the night."
"That's very kind of you Daren." Leo's father regarded me as if I was a new puppy who had an accident on the carpet. "However you are welcome to stay the night I'm sure Leo would love your company and I would definitely like for someone with a little common sense to be here to watch him."
Leo and I exchanged a small look but I answered "That's okay, I have to get home tonight."
"Well then you two get started and by the time I leave this better be done Leo." Leo's father took one last double take at me "Daren you have a splotch on your cheek."
"What?!" I quickly turned to the nearest mirror I could find and there it was a small white cum blob on the back of my left cheek, "Oh...um...that's probably pudding, from when I was feeding Erica (my baby sister) yeah that tantrum wasn't the only thing she was throwing today, Leo I can't believe you let me go through this day with this on my face."
"Oh I'm wicked." Leo nervously laughed but his eyes kept saying nice save bro.
Leo's father then took his hand and wiped the "pudding" off my face gave it a second look over then sucked it off his thumb.
"Strange, but not too bad." Leo's father reviewed as I fought back a laugh and Leo silently retched behind him. Leo's father then walked out and we got started cleaning up.
When we were done putting up the yarn and Leo's father had left we stood there in his room until I broke the silence.
"So...that happened."
"Yes, the past hour was extremely...eventful."
"Yeah, and then your dad came in."
"Hey, how do you do that?"
"Do what?"
"Defuse him, when he came in he was ready to kill, one sentence from you and he's a de-clawed kitten. Are you a witch?"
"Ha, no parents just like me, some more than their own kids, sorry but you fall into the latter category."
We forced a laughed, a constricted feeling filled the atmosphere. Leo was silent and I could not think of anything to say to ease the situation, I took the hint that he didn't want to talk about what happened just yet, so I went home.
Two weeks later I was in the public library my last class of the day had been canceled and I was waiting on my ride when I saw Leo down the comic's aisle.
"Of all the library joints in all the world," I started as I walked up to Leo.
"You had to walk into mine." Leo finished.
"So how's the new place?"
"Huge, and best of all I have my own building with its own entrance and everything, sure it was supposed to be a garage but I'll take what I am given"
We chuckled "So, are we ever going to talk about what happened, or is it just cannon fodder for my future therapist?" I get tired of small talk very quickly, blunt is my default setting.
"I almost forgot how direct you can be"
"Forgot, I sucked you off 14 days ago how much could you really forget?"
"Hey, keep your voice down this is still a library, and... even after what happened...I'm still straight." Leo's facial expression was hard to read, but I decided not to worry about that for long. "What about you?"
"Um, yeah, I had your throbbing, hard, penis in my mouth and wanted to put it somewhere else before you exploded all over me, so I'm gonna go ahead and say I'm definitely gay."
"Wow you get descriptive when you're angry" Leo noted.
"Look," I started to calm down "I'm not angry it's just you were there and what happened, happened, and then you literally disappeared. You never told Jo or me where your family was moving to you stopped answering calls and text, no insta', no snapchat, no Facebook."
