One Day I'll [FLY] Away, Tag: Aiden Wells

[Teddy Sebastian James]

Teddy awoke with a start as the clock struck one, and he looked around to see that he was in fact completely alone in the Common Room. He'd fallen asleep there on the couch and no one had bothered to wake him, but he supposed that was nice in a way, because he usually wasn't a fan of being woken up and would've hated to find imself being cruel to someone because of it. Teddy sighed softly, sitting up and then yawning, he'd slept surprisingly well so far tonight which was a huge change for lately he'd been something of an insomniac.

Looking around once more, Teddy decided that he could simply stay the night in the room, what would it hurt? Besides, he was already comfortable anyways, and he knew that if he tried to sleep in his dorm he'd just be woken up by his roommates' snoring. Perhaps this was the answer, falling asleep in the Common Room, but he figured that he'd be discovered in the morning and therefore this would probably be the first and last time.. but it was still exciting. The Common Room had always been a good place for thinking, well, at least when it was near empty. And now with the complete silence it was perfect, calm, and comforting.

Wiping his eyes and brushing his shaggy black hair from his eyes Teddy looked to his knees, he'd been crying in his sleep again, that damn dream every night. If someone were to walk in now they'd assume he'd just broken up with his girlfriend or something, but that was certainly not the case.. he didn't even like girls. Not that he'd tell anyone that of course, he'd likely be expelled as it was in fact an all boys school, some straight boys could be offended. Teddy scoffed at the thought as he readjusted his t-shirt so that it wasn't half- strangling him. His crystal blue eyes remained fixed on his knees for a moment before he lay back down, snuggling into the blanket he'd brought from his room for warmth. And aside from his gentle breathing, the room remained silent.

[Aiden Harrison Wells]

But not for long. Aiden had been released from detention - for 'lewd behavior' in the classroom - about three hours earlier. However, he had spent the rest of that time wandering around the campus, rather than going straight to his room as he had been told to do. His roommate was a flake, and his dogs smelled, so there was really no point in going back to his dormitory. So why not just wander? It was better than sleeping. Aiden never went to sleep before two o' clock. Mainly this was because he was always ...up... doing things, but he was usually dead tired by two, and when he was dead tired, he didn't have time to think about things. Or dream.

He figured he could watch TV in the commons or something. Watch the late late show with O'Brien or whoever had such bad ratings they had to have a TV show at 1 AM. He took the stairs, as the elevators to the dorms were always shut down at curfew time, and got up to the commons in no time. But rather than getting some peace and quiet with Conan, he found a boy sitting on the couch. Crying. Oh, wonderful -- talk about awkward. There was no way he could get through the commons - to his dorm - without the boy noticing, so he decided he might as well just say. Jumping over the free couch, he got comfortable, and stared at the upset boy as he turned on the television.

"So what's your tragedy?" he questioned, voice bland and completely uninterested.

Teddy nearly jumped out of his skin as he realized that he was nolonger the only person in the room. Quickly brushing through his hair with his fingers to make him look at least somewhat decent, he returned the boy's gaze with a bit of confusion. What was his tradgedy? Ah yes, tears, the boy must've noticed. Teddy sighed and shook his head, sitting up once more to face the boy.

"Nothing. I just woke up, clock scared the hell out of me. Don't sound so thrilled dentention boy." Yes he knew where the boy had been only hours ago, mainly because he'd had to deliver some files to the detention head and had had to enter the dentention room and see the boy there. He was curious as to why he'd ended up in dentention, but Teddy wasn't usually one to ask abotu others or really even talk much, but lately he'd been getting a bit lonely.

"What were you doing there anyways? Beat someone up?" Teddy had to admit that he boy was handsome, and it was usually the handsome ones who were the homophobes, at least, that was what they'd been when Teddy had run into them. He'd nearly got beat up just the day before, a couple of guys noticed that he was a bit more feminine than he should be, but he talked his way out of it. Sighing softly Teddy glanced at the television, of course nothign good was on at this hour, that was something Teddy knew for certain.

"Anyways, I'm Teddy, Teddy James. Insomniac." He chuckled lightly but stopped, looking away from the boy as he extended his hand in that familiar old-fashioned gesture. Hand shake. Most thought it strange, Teddy thought it only polite.

[Aiden Harrison Wells]

Click, click, click. The flashes fromt he television against the dark backdrop of the sleeping world made his eyes burn, but he didn't turn away. Because turning away meant he'd look interested in this boy's story, and... he wasn't, to be honest. But he couldn't help but listen anyway. It was a curse. Aiden found it extremely easy to feign disinterest, but it was very hard for him to actually ignore boring parts. Hopefully the TV could soothe away the distraction...

"You cry when you get scared?" Aiden asked, voice monotonous. Detention boy. He smirked, the change in his face barely noticable through the dim lighting. He was surprised the other didn't know -- who he was, and his reputation. Usually, people looked at him in sort of awe or intimidation, or glared... whatever. Everyone at the school who mattered knew who Aiden Wells was, and it was hard thinking this boy didn't matter, because (in that quick glance) he was very good-looking. Very.

So why not help him along...

"I was 'insinuating' that I would give this guy head if he came by my dormitory later today." He shrugged, yawned, and threw his arms over his head. He arched his back a bit against the cushions, and then flopped back down when he felt that satisfying series of small pops in his spine. Aiden pulled down his shirt, which had ridden up as he stretched, and brushed his platinum-blond hair from his blue eyes with slender white fingers. It was amazing that someone so delicate and ...pretty could in reality be so ugly inside. Like a porcelain doll spewing trash from her mouth.

Those cold blue eyes glanced at the offered hand. Usually, Aiden didn't like to touch people. Germs. But--... well, he was going to take a shower soon anyway, so... He grasped the hand and shook it. Not firmly, but not too gently, either. "Aiden," he introduced himself. "Horny as hell." He arched his eyebrow, smirking a bit. Was that an invitation? Actually... yes. Aiden wasn't too picky about lovers so long as they used protection and it didn't extend past a one night stand. But he wasn't too concerned with his 'horniness.' He just wanted to see his reaction.

Teddy glanced at the television and shook his head, looking away once more and letting out a soft sigh. It was obvious the boy wasn't interested in him, but there had to be some way to make him so. And then at the boy's question he realized what he'd said, how lame it sounded, and mentally he reprimanded himself. "Well, no, I mean I was crying in my sleep.. and then the clock woke me up." Teddy blushed a bit and bit his lip, playing with the bottom hem of his t-shirt nervously. He hated this awkward feeling, frankly, he hated any feelings.

The boy was attractive, increasingly as Teddy was starting to find his eyes adjusting more and more to the darkness. He was trying to figure out how he knew him, but he really couldn't place him, then again Teddy was a very recluse person. He was surprised that the boy actually told him the truth about why he was in dentention, well, at least, he seemed pretty sure of it and wasn't afraid to say it so it must've been the truth.. right? Teddy was a bit confused, because most boys wouldn't go out and say to just anyone that they'd offered head to some random guy.

Of course Teddy had noticed the boy's shirt ride up, and of course he'd noticed the frame beneath it, but he wasn't going to go right out and say it. Why all of the sudden was Teddy having a bit of a time finding words and getting nervous? He hadn't had a problem ignoring hot boys since he'd broken it off with Caron, then again that was another story.

Teddy shivered a bit as the boy grasped his hand, and so of course he quickly pulled his hand away. Aiden, where had he heard that before. Wait, Aiden.. Aiden Wells. Oh dear god no, so this was the incredibly popular Aiden that everyone was always talking about, the self-proclaimed manwhore of Wilde Boarding School. "Aiden." Teddy replied finally in a half-choked voice, if he'd been drinking water he'd have spit it out for Aiden's words of 'horny as hell'.

"Was that an invite?" Teddy questioned, though instantly regretted it, and so, blushing furiously, he looked away once more. No one had made him this nervous in, well, years to be honest. "I didn't mean, I just, well, um. I'm not g-, look I don't want you thinking I am or something cause like.. I'm not.." Again he blushed, and this time hid his face, embarassed, he hated telling people about his homosexuality, but he supposed it wasn't too bad since Aiden was as well, then again, that made it more awkward in a way. What was he getting himself into?

"Alright.. so maybe I am.. just, don't tell people.. I don't need to get beat up again." Teddy paused, biting his lip as he looked to the boy, and then glanced at the remote before returning his gaze to Aiden. [/b]
