ANTHONY’S POV“Where the hell are we going to sleep tonight?” I asked Blake. We were in his mother’s car now, chased back in from how cold outside was. We didn’t carry coats or anything that could keep us remotely warm. I had never been this cold in my entire life.Blake turned to look at the back seat. “Looks pretty comfortable to me.”“Blake...” I started in a warning tone. I liked the car, but there was no way I was going to sleep in it. He smiled, a goofy grin and ruffled my hair.“I’m kidding. My grandparent’s cabin is a couple minutes away from here. Luckily for us, I am their favourite grandchild and so they told me the password to it.”He put the car in gear and a couple seconds later we were leaving the beach and on our merry way to his grandparents’ cabin.It was rare for me to feel as happy as I did then and I was scared to let myself feel that happy because I kept having this feeling that it would all be taken away from me.

ANTHONY’S POV“This is what? My third hoodie?” Blake asked, pointing at the gigantic white hoodie with BL boldly written in black letters across it. “I am taking notes of all my hoodies you’re with.

He had taken out two pairs of sweatpants and two different coloured hoodies from his little collection of clothes in his wardrobe, and asides the oversized cardigan my mom got him two years ago, he didn’t have any other clothes in there.“Blake, sweetie...”“Oh, I like that,” Blake said and gave me a quick kiss on my lips. “Call me that again.”He l

BLAKE’S POVThe next two days were two of the best days of my life. Tony and I spent them cuddling, kissing, taking baths together and teasing each other, although it was more of me teasing him while he blushed and blushed till he ran out of red in his system. I didn’t want it to end. I wanted us to be like that forever. It was like my love for him grew with each second of each day that I spent with him. I never once imagined loving a boy like this and yet look at me, feeling all giddy inside just because Anthony Pearce told me he liked how I smelled after a shower.“Blake?”“Hmm?”We were both lying in bed, Tony’s face buried in my chest while I hugged him and stroked his hair. It was perfect, us just being like that.“Don’t you think we should head home already?”So much for it being perfect.“Why?” I asked, breaking our hug. He looked at me, sighed and then sat up right. I did the same.“Well, I just think our parents will be so stressed out worrying about us. What if they’
