Kiss Me

Miraculously, they had Friday off for some sort of emergency teacher’s meeting. Bam called Lotus, and Lotus agreed to pick him up Thursday evening, straight after Drama Club.

“All right, all right, settle down guys.” Mr. DeWitt came in, looking haggard and a bit too rushed. Once again, everyone was perfectly settled, and stared at him blankly.
“Now I know you’re all itching to start your long weekend, so I’ll make this quick. We’re just going to go over who gets to be what and I’ll pass out the scripts.” He shuffled some papers and paused.

The boys all stared at him expectantly.

“Here’s the part where I spew all the garbage about the fact that there’s no small parts, only small actors, and that every one matters. But you all know that already. So we’re just going to skip right to the good stuff, because frankly, I have a migraine and I’m not in the mood to be Hubert the Happy Guidance Counselor. Is everyone okay with that?”

They nodded, nonplussed. Poor guy, Ville thought. Migraines sucked. He sat back and popped a piece of hard candy into his mouth. His tongue and lips were instantly stained with a tint of green.

“Hey, you had candy and didn’t share?” Bam was sitting next to him. He scowled as he noticed the sweet in the Finn’s mouth. Ville rolled his eyes, but obliged with a red piece of the hard candy.

The grin Bam gave him in return was totally worth it. He always melted like the treat in his mouth. Instead, he just sucked a bit harder, hoping his face wasn’t giving anything away.

“Okay, here we go. Romeo will be played by…Bam Margera!” Bam grinned again. There was nothing better than being the center of attention. He noticed Ville’s warm look, and tried to pretend he wasn’t squealing on the inside.
“Juliet will be Ville Valo,” DeWitt was reading them off smoothly; barely giving them time to react.

The skater almost choked on his candy. He’d… Have to kiss Ville. What in the world would Violet say to that? Would she be jealous? Angry? Okay? Would she laugh because he had to kiss her brother?

Ville’s cheeks were growing hot, and he hoped the younger boy thought it was because of the thought of kissing a boy. Not because he actually really wanted to kiss Bam.

“So you’re kissing Violet’s brother?” Lotus raised an eyebrow, cupping both of the dice in her hand. Bam nodded and shrugged.

“Unless we find some way to fake it. But DeWitt strikes me as the kind of guy who likes it authentic.”

“Or maybe he just liked gay porn!” Helen giggled. Bam scowled at her and watched as Lotus landed on one of her girlfriend’s properties.
“Well, looks like you don’t have enough to pay me.” Helen smirked.

“Shit,” Lotus scowled.

“I’ll make you a deal.” Helen purred as she leaned over the board. “You can just make out with me.”

“Deal,” the other girl grinned. And sure enough, she leaned over too. Their lips met, and Bam could tell there was some tongue going on there. He scowled and threw the dice at their heads.

“No fair! You get to make out and I don’t!”

“It’s not OUR fault you’re a boy.” Helen protested.

“Yeah, grow a pair of tits and we’ll talk about it.” Lotus joked. Bam groaned and stood up. The game of Monopoly was clearly over now. He stalked into the kitchen, hoping to find a snack to soothe his nerves.
