It was the last class of the day and Jack had still not fully recovered from the kiss. He had recovered enough to talk to others in full sentences and make jokes, but his mind was still on it.

βοΈIC:βοΈ Norman watched the clock as the seconds ticked by, waiting for the class to be over....and then finally the be rang and he gave a delighted grin before collecting his stuff and heading out of the classroom, he didn't really want to stay at school for a second longer.

Jack was standing by the front doors talking with his friends. When he noticed Norman walking towards them he excused himself and made his way over to the other without drawing much attention.

βοΈIC:βοΈ Norman paused...well it was best not to repeat yesterday, no one else needed a head injury. So he stayed where he was as Jack came over, all defenses up and blazing since he had no idea what to really expect from him at this point.

Jack didn't really think about what he was going to say and just ended up blurting out "Did you mean it?" his voice was soft so not to be heard by people passing by.

βοΈIC:βοΈ Norman looked at him before just nodding in response, best to just nod...didn't really trust his voice, so he figured nodding was a safe choice. Luckily there were people around too, so he was safe from any serious conversations.

Jack hummed thoughtfully. He took out his phone and said "Give me your number." if they were going to talk this over, if may be easier to do it over a text or call. That and they could talk without being seen by their friends.

"Great." Jack nodded and pocketed his phone "I have to go before this gets suspicious." he waved and started to walk away.

βοΈIC:βοΈ Norman waited until he left before he glanced back at the hall and left, letting out a small sigh, mumbling under his breath as he made his way to the black jeep that he had brought to school. Glad to have gotten his driver's license a few weeks prior to this.

Jack lived close by. Even if he was able to drive, his parents owned two cars and they needed them both. Instead they had insisted Jack either walk or bike to school He had opted for the bike. Yawning, still tired, he unlocked his bike and rode it out of the school grounds.

βοΈIC:βοΈ Once Norman got home, he unlocked the door to the apartment and dropped the key in the bowl by the door, instantly greeted by a big Great Dane. He laughed slightly and knelt down to pet him. "Hey Mel," he greeted, scratching the dog behind his ears before he patted his head and continued in, taking off his shoes and placing the backpack down before pulling out the bag of cookies, placing the slightly smushed cookies on a plate on the counter. He washed his hands and pulled out his phone, a text from Ives talking about some mouse he saw, a reminder from Thaddeus to bring his comic book back tomorrow, and...nothing yet from Jack.
Well his brothers wouldn't be back for a bit longer, he figured he should get his homework done now so he could make dinner before they got back, that way they wouldn't have to worry about that, so he pulled out his stuff from his backpack and placed it on the table, getting ready to work on his homework, making sure to grab his laptop from his room first.

The ride to his house took five minutes when he was trying. But Jack couldn't seem to find the energy to move today. It was times like this when he felt lonely. He would be home, but knew that he would not see his parents. His father was out on a business trip, and the work hours for his mother were crazy. Who knew when she would be back. Sighing, he finally made it back to his house. Parking the bike by the front door he punched in the code and walked inside. As usual, it was silent.
Pulling out his phone he stared at the contact. Gathering his courage he sent Norman a message. It read: "I think it's time we talked about this. It'll be hard to continue skirting around each other while the whole school is watching."

βοΈIC:βοΈ His phone vibrated and Norman picked it up, looking over the text before figuring this must be Jack and added his number into his contacts quickly before replying to the text. I agree. We do need to talk about it. He sent the text quickly before trying to go back to his homework, he liked to get it out of the way right away so he had time to do other things later. It worked out well for him.

Jack groaned. He was happy the other agreed, but he was hoping Norman had some sort of idea. He flopped onto his bed. Texting back he said "It's probably best we clearly state what happened. And what we think." He was hoping the other would go first...

βοΈIC:βοΈ "Well what happened was yesterday you said you didn't hate me and kissed me, today I did the same. Norman paused with his text, glancing over at the dog. "What do you think I should say?" He asked and Mel just looked at him from his doggy bed. Norman exhaled before looking back at the phone. "Usually though, when someone kisses someone else, it usually means they actually like that person, not just...not hate them. So do you like me, or do you just kiss everyone you don't hate?" He hesitated before sending it.

"Anyone who gets a kiss from me should be honored." he joked back "I have to admit though, I may like you more than just a friend." he felt embarrassed just saying that. Over text though it wasn't as bad.

βοΈIC:βοΈ Norman stared at the phone, blushing though luckily he was the only one there besides the dog. He didn't even respond for a few minutes, unsure how to, however he soon realized that he really did need to reply and turned away from his laptop to focus on the phone. "Well then I guess I'm honored." He joked back before continuing. "I hadn't thought that I might like you more than a friend before, other than a bit ago, however it makes sense and I think I feel the same way." Quickly he sent the text before he could change his mind.

Jack had to take a moment. Ever since they were kids, and after Norman had done that. He had found himself attracted to him. Though for years afterwards he had convinced himself he was not. It wasn't the norm after all. If he wanted to keep a place in the world, he had to be normal to an extent. Never before had he thought it might actually work. "I suppose that's good news for me then."

βοΈIC:βοΈ Norman tapped his fingers on the table as he looked at the text, well he supposed the good thing about doing this over text was that it was easier and you couldn't exactly back out in fear. Though he should probably reply soon. "So...what now?" He wasn't sure, it was probably better to figure out what Jack thought about this, good thing his brothers were gone right now, he couldn't handle having to explain to them why he was freaking out while looking at his phone.

"Hmm I don't know. Despite popular belief I have only been on few dates... Dates. That might be a nice place to start." his train of thought trailed off and he eventually just sent that.

βοΈIC:βοΈ "A date. Okay, sure. I'm usually free Friday and Saturday." When he didn't have to worry about making tired brothers dinner and had definitely finished any homework he would've had. He didn't mind making food for his brothers, made it easier on them in general. However sometimes it was a bit of a task.
