(is Kris going to confess?)
Maybe we should skip forward to when Alto is more comfortable with him?//
(sure like maybe a couple days or like, a week from now?)
Sure. Let's go with a few weeks//
(kk, should it just be like, during/after football practice or something, Alto could be just, hanging out idk?)
Sure. Maybe he just got out of practice//
(Yeah sounds good)
Alto sighed quietly and glanced up from his phone, not realizing practice had ended. He jumped down from the bleachers, looking around for Kris.
Kris walks out if the locker room, clean from a shower in the boys bathroom, a towel around his neck. He smiles. "Alto! Over here!" He brushes some of his hair from his eyes.
Alto smiled and walked over to him. "Is that water or sweat?" He laughed, looking up at Kris.
"Water." Kris laughs lightly. "I took a quick shower." He shoulders his bag.
"Okay good." Alto laughed a little. "What should we do?" He asked, starting to walk back to the parking lot of the school.
Kris shrugs. "Whatever you want to do, my dude." He smiles at the other. I could just kiss him on the spot…
Alto nodded. "I have to be home at…" He glanced down at his phone at the time, not looking out for where he was going and tripping over the sidewalk, grabbing Kris's arm for support. "Shit, sorry."
Kris lept into action, grabbing Alto around the waist to make sure he didn't fall. He wasn't thinking. His eyes widen at their position.
(gay panic)
Alto froze for a second, doing the thing that seemed most logical to him, which was turning around so he was facing Kris, his arm still supporting Alto from the back. "Hey." He blushed a little, looking up at the taller boy.
(lol)
Kris cleared his throat, his cheeks turning a soft pink. "H-hey." He slowly helps the other up, his hands didn't move from thr others waist.
"So um.." Alto cleared his throat. "I uh, have to be home by six.."
Kris nods. "Okay…" He realized he had his hand in his eyes waist. "Oh. Sorry." He pulls his hands away, blushing softly.
"It's okay.." Alto said quietly, smiling a little. "What are you up to doing?" He asked.
Kris shifts in his spot, looking down. He wasn't exactly sure what to do at the moment. He wanted to tell Alto so badly, but he felt as if Alto wasn't ready for that.
Alto looked over at him and frowned a little. “Kris? What’s wrong?” He asked worriedly.
Kris sighs. "I… Well… The thing is… I um…" He shuffles a little bit. "I really like you, Alto. Like… Really really like you. More than just a friend. But I didn't want to tell you because I was concerned that it would be a low blow or just hurt your feelings, or that you'd reject me…" He mumbles softly, looking away.
Alto stayed silent for a minute, thinking. He suddenly turned to face Kris and wrapped one of his arms around the taller boys neck, standing on tiptoes and kissing him.
Kris starts, his eyes going wide. He wraps his arms around Alto's waist, kissing him with a loving passion, holding him close. He prayed to whatever god up there that it wasn't a dream.
Alto grinned against his lips and pulled away. “I’ve been waiting to do that for a while..” He said quietly, resting his forehead on Kris’s chest.
Kris' eyes wide but he holds Alto in a gentle but firm grip. "I love you." He whispered.
“I..I think I love you too but let’s take this slow okay? Halo doesn’t know yet and I..was dating that boy Stormy when he..when he died. There’s just a lot going through my head lately so I’m sorry if I seem distant..” Alto explained all this, his head still resting on Kris’s chest, holding him close.
Kris nods. "Of course. As much time as you need. We'll take it at the pace you want it to be." He says gently.
“Thank you..” He smiled up at Kris, giving him another small kiss.
Kris smiled in return, kissing him back gently. He holds Alto, just glad he hadn't been rejected.
