Ozzie's Boner

jajki: Jamie lays like a lump of sad underneath the covers of his bed with only his curly hair poking out of the top.  His phone buzzes occasionally on the pillow next to him but he ignores it for the most part and focuses on pretending to not exist.  Nick and Emi are curled snugly around his feet but Chickie lays on the wood floor at the top of the steps.
Tsaaq: ((Lol we're so close.))
jajki: ((WOAH THERE COWBOY))
Tsaaq: ((Gaze into his eyessss.))
jajki: ((-squints sadly-))
Tsaaq: Ozzie drove up to OCH, parking his truck in the driveway. It took him a few minutes to find the damn rock with the key. He finally got the garage door open and closed it behind him. "Hiiii Chickie."Ozzie tried to whisper. He jogged up the stairs and pulled off his sneakers so he could tip-toe into Jamie's room but not before petting the doggie. He entered the bedroom. He saw the lump that was Jamie under the covers and frowned before going to lay down beside him.
jajki: Chickie jumps up onto the bed and does an adorable chubby belly crawl up to Ozzie in an attempt to lick at his face.  Nick and Emi stand up to say hello too but they’re old and just kind of stay where they are.  Jamie pries his eyes open and pulls part of the covers down to reveal his face.  He blinks slowly at Ozzie for a few moments before mumbling, “Hey."
Tsaaq: He laid flashed Jamie a smile while scratching Chickie's belly. "Hi." He said softly then just stared at Jamie. "You know it's like... That video could be anything you know? It's hard to tell whats in it. People are probably like 'huh' and just not paying attention." He tried to say reassuringly.
jajki: “My face is in it.”  Jamie responds quietly before pulling the cover back up slightly and curling further into a ball. The action nudges Emi slightly and she gets up to waddle up towards Ozzie and Chickie.  “You’re the only person I’ve talked to.”  He continues, his voice muffled slightly.  “So I don’t know."
Tsaaq: "Well... Your face was..." Ozzie trailed off.
Tsaaq: ((FUCCCKKK ENTER BUTTON.))
jajki: ((LMAO))
Tsaaq: "Well... Your face was..." Ozzie trailed off. "Um." He paused. "Yeah it was in it but nobody has posted anything about it." He shrugged his shoulders before sitting up and scooting closer to Jamie. "Come on. It's been up since yesterday. The guys in the frat probably would've said something if it was like... bad." He shrugged again.
jajki: “It was bad.”  Jamie groans and pulls the covers back up completely so that only his curly hair pokes out the top.  “Did you not hear the shit that was being said?  I’d really hoped I dreamed that part of it.  It’s so fucked up.”
Tsaaq: Ozzie sighed nodding his head, remembering the video once again. He went to pat Jamie's head. "I'm here now though. Does that make you feel better?" He said quietly. "And if somebody tries to say stuff or do mean things I'll punch them with my fists!"
jajki: “A little, I guess.”  Comes Jamie’s response from underneath the covers.  “I don’t want you to have to punch anyone…that would be bad.  And then you’d feel bad.  And then I’d feel worse.  And I’d sleep for another decade."
Tsaaq: He started to pout. "I wish you wouldn't sleep! There's so much to do and life and living come on!" Ozzie cheered as he pulled the covers aside. "I wouldn't feel THAT bad. Cause people hurt you first and it wasn't cool.  You deserve to be happy." Ozzie said as he got up from the bed.
Tsaaq: ((I just remembered I was making spaghetti.))
jajki: ((pfahahahahaha))
jajki: Jamie groans again but doesn’t pull the covers back up. Instead he rolls onto his back and watches Ozzie out of the corner of his eye.  “Do I?  The universe doesn’t seem to think so.”  He lifts his hands and rubs at his eyes firmly with the heels of his hands.  “God I sound pathetic.  Please smack me."
Tsaaq: "That's why we tell the universe to kiss our butts!" He shrugged as he pulled off his hoodie. "You don't sound pathetic. You're just having a hard time. It happens." Ozzie unknowingly went to take his shirt off but then remembered what Jamie had said he stopped himself, freezing himself in a positon where his shirt was half lifted but also hald on.
Tsaaq: half***
jajki: Jamie pulls his hands away from his eyes and peers up at Ozzie tiredly.  Noticing the position he furrows his brow and cocks his head slightly to the side.  “What are you doing?"
Tsaaq: Ozzie frowned a moment and lowered his shirt. "Uhhhhhh. Nothing!" He said with a loud fake laugh. "What are we going to do Jamie? We can do whatever you want!" Ozzie said to him, putting a sincere smile on his face.
jajki: Jamie turns his head back to its normal position and just kind of stares up at the ceiling with a bland expression on his face.  “Why don’t we lay down and pretend that we don’t exist?"
Tsaaq: He groaned loudly and ran over to jump onto the bed next to Jamie. "No, lets not do that! Let's do something else instead!" Ozzie said with a grin as he stared at the other male.
jajki: He lets out a loud “Oof!” and bounces around a little bit as Ozzie jumps up onto the bed.  “Uh..”  He drawls as he lays there like a lump.  “We could drive to Canada."
Tsaaq: "No!" Ozzie went to poke his shoulder playfully. "We're not going to Canada! We're staying here and being best buds. It's what we have to do." He said. "Let's have a sleepover! Oh wait, you said that was a couple thing to do..." Ozzie sighed. "Girls sleepover with their friends all the time and nobody says that though. I don't get it."
jajki: Jamie pushes himself up to a seated position in the bed.  HIs progress is rather slow and once he’s seated Chickie climbs into his lap and proceeds to lick lovingly at his beard.  He pets at her fat back as he speaks.  “I can always take the couch.  But girls don’t usually have sleepovers with other girls that they’re attracted to is the thing.  Or guys that they’re attracted to.  I mean…they do.  But it’s usually for like…romantic purposes."
Tsaaq: He frowned and went to pet Chickie as well. "But I like sleeping in the same bed as you. I don't want you to go on the couch." Ozzie whined a little then listened to Jamie speak. "Oh... I guess that make sense. What the girls I dated in middle school and high school was doing was romantic. Oops." He said, clenching his jaw a moment awkwardly then laughing nervously.
jajki: “I mean…it’s not like I’d want to do anything right now….but still.  I always kind of feel like I’m taking advantage of our friendship whenever we sleep in the same bed.”  He sighs heavily and pushes himself out from under the covers.  He ruffles his hair with one hand as he pads across the room and into the kitchen to fill a glass with cold water from the sink.
Tsaaq: Ozzie watched as Jamie got off the bed. "You're not! We feel safe when we-" He tried to call out before giving up. He got out of the bed and slowly walked towards the living room area. "I don't know a lot about stuff." Ozzie said quietly. "I mean like, the bed thing that we were talking about just now and stuff." He muttered, pointing behind himself at the bedroom.
jajki: Jamie finishes pouring the glass of water and lifts it to his lips for a long gulp before turning back around to face Ozzie.  “That’s okay.  I probably don’t either.  I’ve never really…had a gay friend who I wasn’t romantic with so…”  He lifts his shoulders in a shrug and takes another drink of water.
Tsaaq: "So you like..." Ozzie furrowed his eyebrows a moment with confusion. "You like me cause I'm gay too or you like me for other reasons? I don't understand." He said like a fucking child.
jajki: “No, it’s not just because you’re gay.”  Jamie sighs and moves to drop down into one of the kitchen chairs heavily.  “I would probably like you if you were straight too.”  He takes a drink of water before setting the glass on the table.  “I’m just saying like…I’m from a small town so the guys I dated and I were really the only gay guys around.  So I’ve never really…been friend-zoned?  This is a weird conversation.”  His phone buzzes in his pocket and he pulls it out, frowning down at the screen for a moment before sliding it away on the table.
Tsaaq: Ozzie's eyes widened. "I FRIEND ZONED YOU?" He asked loudly and went to sit across from him. He watches Jamie with his phone and shakes his head. "Who is that? Is it Brad? Tell him to go away we're having a talk about stuff and it's important!" Ozzie said, bouncing in his chair as he spoke.
jajki: “Well….yeah.”  Jamie snorts and shakes his head as he looks down to his lap for a moment.  “No, it’s my mom.  She’s flying back from a work trip in a few days and coming straight here.”  He sighs heavily and looks back up.  “I haven’t talked to Brad in forever."
Tsaaq: "Good cause we don't need him like ever." Ozzie said quickly. "Ooo yay! Jamie's mommy!" He cheered, getting distracted at the thought of it. "Ooo she can play with Lolo!" Ozzie said then shook his head. "Wait, we were talking about a thing. The friend zone. How do I get you out of there? I know the word is bad even though when I first heard it I though wow what a great place to be but people said it was really bad."
jajki: He gives a small shrug and pokes at the water glass with his index finger for no reason.  “I’m sure she’d love to see him.”  He says, still focused on the water.  “It’s not a bad thing.  It’s like…when someone is romantically attracted to someone but the other person just wants to be friends.  It’s not a bad thing.  It’s just…a thing that happens.  I don’t see why people get so butthurt about it."
Tsaaq: Ozzie sighed with relief then stared across at Jamie. "It isn't bad? Okay." He said slowly with a nod. "There isn't a way we could be friends but still do couples stuff?" Ozzie asked carefully with a raise of his eyebrow. "I mean, like now sort of I guess?" He inquired.
jajki: “You mean like….dating without the kissing and stuff?”  Jamie asks, finally looking up from the water.
Tsaaq: "Well... I guess." He shrugged. "Why do you want to kiss?" Ozzie asked a little cluelessly. "Can we kiss and still be friends? No right?" He dropped his voice down in a whisper and covered the side of his mouth.
jajki: Jamie lowers his eyes back to the water and takes a long drink, using at as a way to not have to talk for a minute.  “Uh.”  He sort of gasps as he sets it back down.  “I mean…some people can?  I don’t know.  This is weird."
Tsaaq: He got up from his seat and went to stand beside Jamie, scratching at the back of his neck nervously. "I don't know Jamie. You're the one who said you liked me and now I'm trying to see what I can do about it. I have just let that fact sit around and do nothing in my brain." He said. "But I don't want anybody thinking I'm a slut like Brad."
jajki: Jamie sort of turns in his seat to look up at Ozzie.  He stares up at the other male for a few moments before taking a deep breath and speaking.  “Okay.  Well there’s a lot of shit going on so let’s be honest.  I’m really fucked up right now.  I can barely bring myself to leave the house because I feel like a giant ball of shame.  I’m attracted to you.  Like a lot.  I’ve tried not to be but it didn’t really work because even though you can get a little obnoxious when you’re drunk you’re still a good person.  So yeah.  I want to kiss you and stuff.  But I’m confused because with you and the rape I have a lot of feelings and I don’t know which ones to focus on.  So far I’ve just kind of ignored them all and been all numb.  No one’s going to think you’re a slut for being romantic with someone.  As long as you don’t get romantic with /everyone/.”  He finishes with another deep breath and quickly raises the water to his lips once more.
Tsaaq: "You're a good person too Jamie." Ozzie said in the most serious voice he could muster. "Don't say the 'R' word..." He whispered before putting his hand on Jamie's shoulder. "I want you to feel better. But I want you to be better first if that makes sense." Ozzie said. "So does that mean we can still sleep  next to each other?" He started to smile.
jajki: Lowering the glass to the table he gives a small nod before looking up to Ozzie with an equally serious expression on his face.  “That’s fair.  You’re in for a long wait.  But that’s fair.”  He lifts the corner of his lips and gives a small shrug.  “I mean…sure?  I’m still kind of confused but okay."
Tsaaq: Ozzie pulled off his shirt with excitement. "It's okay, you're getting cuddles." He said happily. "Along with the puppies! it's almost bed room time!" Ozzie said in a baby voice as he looked into the bedroom side of the wall before going to flop onto Jamie's bed.
jajki: Jamie quickly finishes off the water before pushing himself to a stand and padding over to the other side of the wall and flipping off the light.  In the dark he moves to the other side of the bed and sits on the edge.  “From you?  So is this like….a pre-relationship thing?”  With the question hanging in the air he kicks off his socks and slides under the covers.
Tsaaq: "Yeah
Tsaaq: (FUUUUUCCCC))
jajki: ((AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA))
Tsaaq: "Yeah!" Ozzie said with a smile before getting under the covers beside Jamie. "Do you want me to kiss you to see if you even still want to?" He asked. "Wait but... Be careful when kissing me cause um. It's been a while and I think my you know what can tell it's been a long time since... Stuff." Ozzie said akwardly.
jajki: Jamie squirms around under the covers to half-prop himself up on the two pillows he’d been sleeping on earlier.  He watches as the three dogs situate themselves comfortably at the base of the bed.  “Uhm.” He falls silent for a few moments before shaking his head.  “Sorry…I’m trying to sort through my thoughts.  Uh.  Only if you want to.  I think that’s about as far as I can go for a while…yeah.  Yeah.  I think that’d be fine."  The emotions of the past day weigh on his tone but he sounds slightly less mopey than before.
Tsaaq: Ozzie nuzzled closer to Jamie, closing his eyes as he moved his face to the other male's and brushes his lips against Jamie's. He tilted his head slightly and did it again before pulling away. "Uh." Ozzie muttered to give Jamie some space. "Okay bedtime!
Tsaaq: ((FUCK))
Tsaaq: Ozzie nuzzled closer to Jamie, closing his eyes as he moved his face to the other male's and brushes his lips against Jamie's. He tilted his head slightly and did it again before pulling away. "Uh." Ozzie muttered to give Jamie some space. "Okay bedtime!" He shouted hastily to deter his impending boner.
jajki: ((LMAO))
jajki: Jamie closes his eyes as Ozzie nears him and just sort of lets the kisses happen.  He does angle his head slightly for the second one.  He forces his eyes open after the other male pulls away and gives him a small smile.  “Right.”  He scoots down to actually lay down and rolls to his side to be more comfortable.  Once settled he speaks quietly, “That was nice.  Thanks for coming over and stuff.  I feel a bit better about things.  Goodnight."
Tsaaq: "Niiiiight." He sang and stared up at the ceiling for a few minutes before falling asleep.
Tsaaq: ((Ughh I'm so tired lmao but worth it.))
jajki: ((Pfahahaha same))
Tsaaq: ((Lmao night night.))
