Chapter Three: Echo In the Emptiness
***
“Go,” Coach Bolton yelled as he blew his whistle during practice.
Troy dribbled the ball as he worked his way down the gym through his other teammates. He tossed the ball in for a score.
“Good job Troy,” Coach Bolton praised his son as he usually did. “Okay! Practice is over now. We have a game tomorrow night. Be there at five please.”
“Wildcats,” the team yelled as they left the gym. Troy quickly ran after them. As he exited the gym he was stopped by Zeke.
“What’s up?” Troy asked.
“Troy,” Zeke whispered. “I need to talk to you about something.”
“What’s that?” Troy asked.
“Last night,” Zeke said. “At the movie theater. I saw you up there with Ryan.”
“You didn’t say hi,” Troy said.
“That’s because when I saw you,” Zeke continued. “You were kissing.”
Troy’s eyes widened.
“I didn’t tell anyone man,” Zeke said. “But, um… Are you and Ryan…”
“Yeah,” Troy sighed. “I guess.”
“Are you gay Troy?” Zeke asked.
“No,” Troy said. “I don’t know.”
“Well you have to be to be dating Ryan,” Zeke said. “But no worries. You can be bi. I won’t tell a soul okay?”
“Okay,” Troy said. “Thanks.”
Zeke walked away. Troy rubbed his eyes and sighed.
***
Troy hurried. Trying to catch his bus. But all his worry made him late.
“Guess I’ll just have to walk,” Troy sighed. He began walking to his house from his school.
“Want some company?” Ryan asked.
“Hmm?” Troy turned around. He held in a smile.
“Hey,” Ryan waved his hand. “I said do you want some company?”
“Oh,” Troy said. “Sure. I guess it wouldn’t hurt.”
They began walking.
“You okay?” Ryan asked.
“Yeah why?” Troy questioned.
“You seem a little tense,” Ryan said. “But I guess that’s the way you always are around me.”
“I’m sorry,” Troy said. “You are right. I’m just not comfortable with the idea of us yet.”
“Do you not want to be a couple then?” Ryan asked.
“No I do,” Troy said. “I really do. Ryan. It’s just weird because I feel like I’m straight. But being with you works. So I can’t be straight. I mean not fully. Not if I am attracted to you.”
“Oh,” Ryan blushed a little. “You are just not sure about who you are. It’s hard when you think you’ve realized something like this about yourself. Do you think you’re gay?”
“No,” Troy said. “I don’t think I’m bi either. I don’t know. Being with you has turned my world upside down in less than a week.”
“Troy,” Ryan stopped him from walking. “You don’t have to know right away. But if you like me, don’t let this get in the way.”
“I like you,” Troy said.
Troy leaned in to kiss Ryan. Ryan pulled back.
“Not here Troy,” he said. “Someone might see.”
“Someone did see,” Troy sighed. “Zeke saw us kiss last night in the movie theater.”
“Oh,” Ryan widened his eyes.
“He said he would keep it to himself,” Troy said. “But how do I know that someone else didn’t see?”
“I guess that’s right,” Ryan said. “Do you want to cool it off for a little while? Wait before we go out again?”
“Yes,” Troy said. “But I can’t do that to myself. Or you! I’m starting to develop some intense feelings for you Ryan.”
“Really?” Ryan asked, “I’ve never been in a relationship before. Do people form feelings this quick?”
“No,” Troy said. “I never have. That’s why I’m so weird about it.”
“I have feelings for you too Troy,” Ryan said. “So don’t worry. I am willing to do this however you want to do this.”
“Thank you,” Troy said. “Want to come over for dinner? My parents are gone tonight. We can order pizza and cuddle on my couch in my room if you want?”
“Cuddle?” Ryan asked, “You cuddle?”
“Is that weird?” Troy asked.
“No,” Ryan said. “I just never took you as one to cuddle.”
“I’m a damn good cuddler,” Troy laughed.
“Cuddler is not a word,” Ryan teased.
“It is now,” Troy laughed.
***
“This pizza is so good,” Troy said.
Troy took a bite as he sat next to Ryan on the couch in his bedroom. The two were watching another chick flick.
“It really is,” Ryan said. “Could be the best I’ve ever had.”
The two ate their pizza and then began actually watching the movie in each other’s arms. Ryan rubbed his hands up and down Troy’s back. Troy looked at Ryan. Troy began kissing Ryan. He moved on top of Ryan. Ryan wrapped his arms around Troy’s collar bone and moved, letting Troy over him. Troy furiously kissed Ryan. Wrestling his tongue in and out or Ryan’s mouth. Ryan didn’t mind this. Kissing Troy was something he enjoyed.
Troy began grinding his lower body with Ryan’s. His two hands attempted to lift Ryan’s shirt off. Ryan pulled away from the kiss. Troy began kissing down his neck.
“Troy,” Ryan said. “Troy!”
“What?” Troy looked up at Ryan.
“Stop,” Ryan said pulling himself out from under Ryan. Troy sat up.
“What’s wrong?” Troy asked.
“That’s a little too fast Troy,” Ryan said. “You are my first relationship remember? I would like to have the relationship before the sex happens.”
“Ryan,” Troy said. “I… I’m sorry.”
“I have to go,” Ryan got up and left.
“Oh man,” Troy sighed. He laid down on his couch. “Man I just blew it again.”
Troy hugged the pillow on his couch. He sighed. This wasn’t the first time Troy did this to himself. He once tried to do this with Gabriella. She said the same thing as Ryan. But that was after months. Troy couldn’t believe he had just tried to pull that. After only three days.
“I’m such an idiot,” Troy said.
He sighed and stared up at his ceiling.
***
Ryan walked to his house which was quite a ways away. His initial plan was for Troy to eventually give him a ride home. But that wasn’t going to happen tonight. When Ryan made it home he headed up to his room.
“Ry,” Sharpay yelled.
“What is it Shar?” Ryan asked peaking into her room.
“Where were you all afternoon?” Sharpay asked. “You were supposed to get a ride home with me.”
“I forgot,” Ryan said. “Sorry.”
“What were you doing?” She asked.
“Just hanging out,” Ryan said. “Lost track of time. That’s all.”
“Come in and talk to me Ryan,” Sharpay said. “Like old times.”
“Nah,” Ryan said. “You look busy. We can talk another time.”
“I just want to know what’s happened to my brother,” she said. “Can you tell me that?”
“He’s becoming his own person,” Ryan said. “He’s doing things for himself and not being told what to do.”
With that Ryan left for his room. Ryan laid down on his bed and hugged his pillow. He sighed.
“Would being with Troy be so bad?” He whispered to himself, “I’ve screwed things up. It was just too fast. That’s not too bad. Right? Now I’m talking to myself. How lame.”
Ryan soon fell asleep…
