Houseguests Hanging Out
The prospect of going back to school has Josh a bit nervous. He's not worried about grades or anything like that, confident he can handle the material. It's all those people. But thankfully, he doesn't have to go yet.

Instead, Josh is staying at Henry's place while the Green Lantern is at school. And since he doesn't want to be a complete mooch, the healer's in the kitchen cleaning. He hums a little tune while he finishes the dishes. "There..." he trails off as he completes the task.

	Josh continues to blush, looking like he might combust at any moment. "Are...are you sure you wouldn't rather have Henry warm the bed with you?" he asks. Dammit, Josh! What the hell? Retreat! Run! "Or..." ABORT! ABORT! Do not ask it! (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Henry doesn't feel that way about me." Avalon says in a sad little tone. He then sighs out a breath and plasters on a smile to Josh as he murmurs softly "You feel warm.. and safe in that regard. Henry doesn't see me the way that he sees you or any one else for that matter." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Are you sure?" Josh asks. "He's...got odd ways. Can't figure him out," he sighs. The healer's smile returns and he gives in to the idea in his head. Josh. You.Are.An.Idiot. "I'll come to bed with you. Why not invite Henry along as well? See what he says...or see if we can open his eyes and see you for how great you are." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	For a moment, Avalon is speechless. He then draws in a slow, deep breath and pushes back a stab of hurt, and offers Josh a small smile. "If.. that's what you want, then.. that's fine. I just.. I don't know Josh. It seems like it's pressing the subject. I don't exist to him, and there's no reason to push it all up into his face." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Josh sighs, unsure and confused. "It's not about what I want, Ava," he says, smiling. "I want to know what you want. I mean..." Think...think... "I like you, Ava. A lot. And I really do wanna come to bed with you. Maybe finish what we were about to do before we fell," he blushes. "But...you really want...me?" he asks. Josh and his issues.

That question makes the stab of hurt show on Avalon's face that he feels in response, and he takes a step back from Josh. What a splash of cold water that was!

"Why wouldn't I want you?" he then asks, his expression confused and hurt. "We just.. spent all day, and then.." Oh boy. Now he was really confused.

Avalon drags in another breath and then forces his voice to not waver as he says "I.. guess I shouldn't have asked you that. I'm sorry that I.. assumed that.. that.." That you liked me too..

"Because I'm? I don't know," Josh sighs, moving to find back down. "I'm...I really don't know. I'm not used to the idea of...someone actually...liking me," he says, putting his head in his hands.

"Okay...wait..." he takes a deep breath. "I need to stop thinking myself in circles. I really like you Ava. And unless I'm reading things wrong...and please tell me I'm not...you like me too, right?" he looks up at Ava. "I...think I deserve a slap upside the head for worrying about things too much again."

	"I don't know.." whispers back Avalon, looking distressed. "I.. I've never felt like this before and had my belly feel all unsettled such as it has been... I thought it was just me, I didn't realize it was both of us.." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	healingbug 2010-03-25 01:29 am UTC (link)
	Josh nods and swallows. He looks down a moment. Okay...think. Can't believe I'm gonna say...think...this but what would Henry do? Eventually Josh gets an idea. He stands back up and walks over to Ava. The healer offers a nervous smile before leaning down and kissing the Blue Lantern. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Well, at least things had switched up onto their head again and Avalon was so confused he didn't know which way was up. Or why Josh was suddenly kissing him.

Avalon was starting to believe that humans were very, very confusing creatures. It was starting to make him rather vexed that he couldn't seem to be able to figure them out. It was a lot easier to just concentrate on kissing Josh back.

	Josh is rather confused with himself and people is general. He decides to just focus on the kiss as well. The healer slips his arms around Avalon and starts to walk them back to walk them back towards the couch. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Henry steps down the stairs, having talked to his father and caught up with him. "So... what did you guys want for din..ner?" Henry asks, coming around the corner, then pausing as he sees Avalon and Josh making out. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	bluelantern 2010-03-25 02:25 am UTC (link)
	Crap! is all that Avalon can think, before he turns a bright red and gently tries to pull himself back a bit from Josh's lips. "Uhm.. I.. uh..." he stammers, before the boy then takes on a rather anxious expression. Avalon has no idea what to say! (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	healingbug 2010-03-25 02:29 am UTC (link)
	Josh goes red as well. He curses himself for not paying more attention to his life sense. The healer offers no resistance to Ava pulling away. He just looks over with wide eyes and a deep blush. He tries to speak but just gets a little 'eep'. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Henry merely raises his eyebrows. "Spaghetti?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	bluelantern 2010-03-25 02:35 am UTC (link)
	Avalon is the first to speak, and takes a big deep breath and nods to Henry. "Yea. That sounds great." he then says, before he drags in a breath and asks "Would you let my wings free now, please?" Wow. That wasn't as bad as he expected. Avalon looks to Josh, giving the taller boy an encouraging smile. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	healingbug 2010-03-25 02:37 am UTC (link)
	Josh stays frozen for a few moments, just staring. When he gets the smile from Avalon, Josh jumps. "Y-yeah. Spaghetti sounds great," he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lantern_kid 2010-03-25 02:41 am UTC (link)
	"Sure thing, Blue. Sorry I forgot when I got home." He gestures, pulling Avalon's wings back out of the pocket dimension they've been stored in. "Uh... and Dad interrupted me when he's found me making out on the couch. I'd suggest not letting him catch you guys." He turns back to the kitchen. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Oh crap, that feels good.." moans Avalon as he spreads his wings and then shudders at the sensation. Tendons creak and he moans then before pressing the wings back against his spine.

"Thanks for the suggestion, Henry. I keep forgetting about parents in that capacity." replies Avalon, before he gives Josh a sweet little smile and grabs his hand to draw him into the kitchen with himself and Henry.

	Josh just stares and blushes about as red as he ever has as Ava flexes and moans. A little 'eep' escapes him but he's snapped out of it quickly by what Henry says. "Oh! I...yeah...thanks," he says. The healer doesn't fight getting pulled along but keeps blushing. He glances at both other lanterns, not sure what to say or do now. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Henry might as well have seen them eating a sandwich and warned them about getting crumbs on the couch for all that he's acknowledging it. He fills a large pot with water. "Good to have my dad back," he tells them. "He's a little annoyed that I didn't tell him about you, Josh, but that's my own fault. I totally spaced it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"He seems really nice," comments Avalon as he flops onto a stool, and then makes a low noise of surprise, "Oh, so I learned something today." he announces. "I learned that I sound like I'm more from the UK than from France." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	healingbug 2010-03-25 09:26 pm UTC (link)
	"He is nice," Josh agrees. He then jumps slightly. "He's annoyed? I can go if he wants...I don't mind sleeping in the backyard or..." he trails off nervously. He really does have issues. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lantern_kid 2010-03-25 09:31 pm UTC (link)
	Henry rolls his eyes at Josh. "Knock it off, man. He's annoyed at me, not you, and it's because I was a dumbass and forgot to let him know." He puts the water on the stove. "And yeah, my dad rocks. I lucked out." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	bluelantern 2010-03-25 09:36 pm UTC (link)
	Hrming a bit, Avalon grabs a banana and starts to peel the thing as he watches Henry and Josh both. "Quit that, Josh!" he then quietly says, "Seriously, we're not going to kick you out.." He then pops some fruit in his mouth and chews it up, all the while shaking his head a bit. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
