The night carried on with me, unable to keep Ambrose out of my head. I tried to convince myself that it was just a casual kiss and there was nothing more to it. I kept on telling myself that Ambrose just got carried away by the moment and that he didn't mean to do what he did. I even said to myself that he hated me the most and that he'd continue making my life a living hell. But then there's also this small part of me hoping there's something from that kiss. It was instead a tiny seed of delusion considering the fact that I haven't seen any signs of Ambrose possibly liking a guy. I even remembered him bullying Jessie, and that alone gave me the notion that he might be homophobic.
I brought my wet uniform to the laundry and thought this might distract me from thinking about Ambrose. I don't know how much this uniform costs. I'm sure it's a bit expensive because of the material that it's made of, but even

AMBROSEI became very much aware of what I just did, and the gloomy feeling of horror and confusion dawned upon me. Maybe I can call myself lucky that no one witnessed me kissing August. And it wasn’t just a kiss. It was a French kiss involving the tongue and basically the whole mouth. I didn’t know what to do right after I was pulled towards reality, and I’m pretty much sure August is confused too. I got scared that I just had to run away.The skies continued with the heavy downpour as I kept on running. I’ve been living here in Mary Heights for the past seventeen years of my existence, and I’m very much familiar with these parts of the woods. There are times that I spend my weekends just walking around the woods and accidentally discovering hidden sceneries such as small caves, abandoned cabins and animal nests. It became a hobby of mine since I don’t have many friends that

AUGUSTI’m not even surprised about the fact that I am having a fever today. Yesterday was definitely a rough and muddy experience that I would probably remember for the rest of my life. It is more of a rollercoaster ride if I’m going to try and describe it. The day wasn’t that much exciting just like how when the ride starts at a slower pace without the thrill until it eventually reaches the first slope and that’s when everything starts to become exciting and horrifying at the same time. The first slope was when Ambrose and his friends all cornered me at the parking lot and from there on, it was a bumpy ride.I don’t even know who won that duel but I am leaning towards the fact that it was a draw. Ambrose and I had our fair share of punches rolled. Despite of that, Ambrose was really born to do this angsty and violent stuff. He knew what he was doing and he’s really strong packing some painful punches and his brute force is de

AUGUSTMonday came and I didn’t know I was already getting anxious until I woke up a bit early this morning and I got nothing from Rachel. I shouldn’t be worried about not getting a text message from her just because of the fact that we aren’t a thing but I know this was supposed to send me a message of some sort. Not getting a message is still a message after all. It has been Rachel’s daily routine to check on me which is so thoughtful of her, she always sends a good morning text and updates me on whatever the fuck she’s doing. I had never dated anyone before but if I was being keen on her actions, I would’ve concluded that she’s already acting like my girlfriend. She started doing that ever since we started hanging out together and I’m honestly shocked by it. Perhaps it’s because of the fact that she’s way too popular that I forgot she’s still very much a normal human being. She&rs

AUGUST“August?! You didn’t tell me you were coming,” Mary spat as she rushed her way out of the door. She seemed quite surprised at my sudden appearance, and honestly, I would be too.“Yeah, I was just about to pass by when I remembered we haven’t actually talked to each other in a while.” I went on.Mary had already grown on me in the short time that we hanged out. That’s not surprising considering the fact that we share something in common. She doesn’t know that I’m gay, but I know that she likes girls too, and that’s enough for us to have an unspoken understanding of each other. I have this certainty in me that our friendship will still grow to a budding flower. We just had to take things separate

AUGUSTAmbrose Haylock, out of nowhere, showed up right at the time that I wasn’t expecting his appearance. I don’t know if time stopped from ticking or I was just frozen. Either way, I was just staring at Ambrose without moving any muscle at all. I couldn’t help myself but shudder inside that we had to meet each other inside this comfort room of all the possible places. We could’ve bumped into each other in the hallway or outside the school grounds.I felt tremors in my chest. Ambrose has made me recognize fear in all of its horrible glory, but this is not it. It doesn’t feel like it. It is wild, but I’m certain that I wasn’t feeling afraid at all. My chest continued to beat, and I wasn’t so sure about what to do.Ambrose looked quite surprised to see me too. The expression painted on his face appeared as if he had seen a ghost, which alone made things unexpectedly interesting. I

AMBROSEI hated everything about the weekends. Both Saturdays and Sundays used to be fun when I was younger, and I had my parents living with me. They did not care about what I did, but they sure bought every toy that I wanted, and it got me entertained and distracted from what was happening around me. All of my toys, the transformer robots, the spider-man and batman figures, the slingshots, and the toy guns, all kept me in good company, and I never felt alone. Now it seems that both days fall under the category of my loneliest day. I cannot count all the weekends these past few years that have made me sadder and angrier.I hated the fact that I had to live in this big ass house in solitary and feel bad about myself. I hated that the only noise that I was hearing were the birds chirping, the branches and leaves rustling, and basically myself. I wanted to convince myself that loneliness doesn’t bother me, but it does. Even the silenc

AMBROSEThe wind whipped off intensely as I stepped on the gas. The morning breeze combed my body as I covered the road. I'm more than psyched to see people again, even though I wouldn't give a crap about anyone. There's nothing for me to expect this Monday, as far I know, except for the thing that I had with August. That was a grave mistake, and I was so stupid that I got carried away by a fucking kiss. I guess I was quite a lucky person that no one witnessed that gay shit that I did. If someone had seen it, I wouldn't even be this excited to enter school. Everybody would probably make me their laughing stock, and the few friends that I have will surely stay away from me. It is crazy that I'm not feeling the sense of fear of losing anyone. This was definitely because I'm already used to being the island that I am.First and foremost, I'm not gay or anything. I know kissing August was the gayest shit I've done throughout my whole life, bu

AMBROSEWhat had happened in the comfort room was just a short fleeting moment worthy of forgetting in the next few hours. That I hope it would be. But I had never felt this kind of awkwardness mixed with some tension ever before in my life. I heard August turn on the faucet as I began unbuckling my belt. It is so strange that the irrelevant noise from these little things is suddenly making the situation unbearable. I shook the feeling away. I closed my eyes as I held Ambrose Junior free and focused on doing what I came here to do. I have been controlling myself since our History period began and for me to finally let this waste go felt so much like having an orgasm. I shrugged my shoulder and tilted my head as I felt my bladder dispose of all of the water that had been held captive for hours. I realized that the crashing sound I was creating was so loud that I couldn’t even hear if August was still washing his hands behind m

AUGUSTI was already growing impatiently excited for Monday to come so I’d have to see Ambrose again and it really came faster than I would’ve even realized. Ambrose and I just shared sweet and thoughtful messages to each other throughout the rest of the weekend and it was giving me everything that I wanted. I can’t stop thinking about him and just everything that happened right between us. I’m pretty much confident that Ambrose can’t stop thinking about me too. He was telling me everything that’s happening inside their house throughout the weekend and I’m not even asking for it. He told me that he had a deep heart to heart conversation with his father about a lot of things and that his dad finally began growing closer to him. I was so happy for him that he’s finally getting what he truly deserves in this timeline and I know he deserves a lot of good things and a classic redemption. I

AUGUST“I didn’t know you brought a friend of yours home?!” The older man wearing this fancy royal blue suit mouthed when I brought myself into the picture basically referring to my sudden appearance. He seemed quite startled to see me emerge from the stairs. Just as the man was startled, I was stunned as well the moment that I heard him speak. The tone of his voice sounded professional and commanding at the very same time and it reminded me of the school’s headmistress.“Oh, yeah.” Ambrose trailed and it was pretty obvious in his tone of voice that he was faltering as he turned his head to look at me. “His name’s August. He’s one of my teammates.” He introduced me and while he said my correct name, I was confused when he said I was one of his teammates.I know he used to play basketball and used to be the captain of the team but this exchange m

AUGUSTThe bright sunlight just pierced right through my eyes when I opened them the next morning. I was facing the window and Ambrose was hugging me from behind and just being the bigger spoon. It took some time for my eyes to adjust from the brightness of daylight but after I got the hang of it, I instantly moved my head and I accidentally hit my head on Ambrose’s chin. The collision was quite hard enough that it woke him up as well.“Hmmmm.” Ambrose groaned from the pain and had to pull one of his hand to adjust from it.“Sorry about that.” I spat out and the words came out pretty hoarsely.“Good morning,” He greeted me with his guttural morning voice as he rubbed both of his eyes to adjust from the brightness of the daylight.“How was your night, Ambrose?” I asked as I stared at his messy just woke up face. He still looked pretty hot

AUGUSTMy heart just melted like a butter dropped on a hot steaming pan. Hearing Ambrose spill some of the truth that has been bottled up inside of him was completely heart wrenching in the most pitiful way. I know that his mother hated him because he already told me that a few weeks ago, but the things that came out after that was really a twist that I wasn’t expecting at all. I’m still trying to let the things that I’ve heard from Ambrose sink inside of my head. It was hard to hear him spit the words out and I didn’t think it was this hard to let it settle down too.I have never met anyone from Ambrose’s family before. I only saw the few members on the painting but that painting was a decade old. Still, I was actually looking forward to seeing them in person. I have yet to meet his famous father who have donated a lot of things at this town. I have yet to meet his mother who hate

AMBROSEDid I hear August enunciate the words right? I asked myself. I’m pretty sure I heard him say the words perfectly clear. I’m not going to hide anything. I was truly astonished by this secret even though it’s really nothing to be astonished about. We are both dudes who likes each other and has kissed more times than I could even remember. How gay could that possibly be?I was dead ass correct when I felt like August was about to drop some sort of a bomb. He really did drop the secret bomb and suddenly this telling of secrets while turned against each other’s back felt beneficial for both of us. I have never realized that he was actually gay until now that he has spilled the truth. All this time I thought he was really this straight guy that willing to explore all of the possibilities of things and I was just the gay one who’s afraid to admit the reality of things.It w

AMBROSEAugust doesn’t seem to be quite impressed by my mediocre dancing skills and to be quite honest with myself, if I was watching that shit go down too, I’d be disappointed. With that being said, I felt alright and I’m pretty much certain that he was entertained. And I’m entertained too. The smile on his face was just something that I’m gunning to see and I made him smile. I’m sure he’s feeling some type of way after just breaking up with his girlfriend a while ago.“What are you doing?” I deliberately asked the moment I noticed he was watching something on his phone. I leaned my head a bit towards him to get a sneak peek of what he was watching and it was just a video of some recognizable people from school at a random house party. “Where is that?” I followed up and casually snaked my arms around his shoulder. I’m becoming more and mor

AMBROSEThe night was pretty much moving slowly but it was everything that I wanted. I checked the clock hanging on the wall and it’s just nine pm. For a normal night, nine pm seemed like the right time to head to bed but for a Friday night, nine pm was agreeably too early.I was a bit shocked that the night’s still very much young. I’m not rushing or anything but then I realized maybe fate was making this moment just for me and August. Maybe fate wanted us to have more time to hang out and be with each other to compensate for the time that we had lost. Part of that was because I chose to ignore August for the entire week and if I had chosen to reply or even answer his calls then things would’ve been different. We haven’t seen each other this whole week and I don’t even want to admit it but I really do miss him in so many levels. I missed his smile that seemed to bring tranqu

AMBROSEI was instantly engulfed with the feeling of guilt and regret. I didn’t mean to shove August like that. I swear to whoever’s watching over us above the clouds. I might be the most violent person in this building but I’m pretty much honest that I didn’t want that to happen. I didn’t even think I put force into that. I completely thought I was just trying to keep him at bay from his attempt at preventing me from drinking the full glass of whiskey. It was never in my intention to hurt him. I had already reached the point where I was about to punch the wall brought about by the anger that I have for myself. And then it turns out that August was just playing with me. He was laughing hysterically that I was just confused at first. He was in pain, writhing like I’ve wrestled him hard on the ground. I saw it in his face that he was really feeling the agony from the supposed impact.
Dancing in his Storm Chapter 25.1: A Night to Remember
AMBROSEI have never imagined the day that I would hang out like this with August ever again. The last time August was here felt so much like a century ago. At least that’s all because I’m too distracted this past week that thinking about him was totally lost in the equation. I was on the verge of believing that I’ll never survive this hell of a week but here I am pouring whiskey on my glass with August sitting at the far corner of the couch.Things just went fast in a matter of hours that I’m still thinking about what happened back at the river. I had an extremely rough week that I just went to find solace at my favorite spot at the river not knowing that someone’s going to show up uninvited. I had never ever expected that August would show up at the river right at the moment where I didn’t know I needed his presence. I may have acted violent a few hours ago and that’s
