Sorry guys, I’m going much the same way as Teddy. There’s really no point in my sticking around and taking up space in the rp if I’m not going to be using Billy. Without Teddy there is literally nothing Billy can accomplish, so I’m going to wait until my Teddy gets back and if that happens we’ll probably go independent.

You guys are awesome, but feel free to unfollow me because inactivity here is going to become a thing. The blog will stick around, I’m not deleting, but nothing’s going to be happening unless Teddy comes back.

Sorry, bros, but that’s the way it is. Thanks for putting up with us ♥

Teddy relaxed his fist under the gentle pressure, letting Billy link their fingers. He brought his free hand up to scrub at his face, sniffing pathetically.

“That’s exactly what I meant,” Teddy said, eyes fixed on the table. “You don’t care what people think. I just — I don’t know how to not care. I fit in, I keep my head down, I don’t stand out. No one in my year isn’t straight. So I act straight too, because that’s normal. Everything I do is based on other peoples’ perception of me. Half the time I don’t know who I really am, because it’s easier to be who they want.

“I’ve liked guys before, but never really confronted it. They were all straight, so it wasn’t like I’d ever have a chance anyway, right? When I thought you were straight and I just had a harmless crush, it didn’t matter. But then you told me, y’know. And I realised how wrong I’ve been. God, I’ve been rationalising this for years, I never even thought about it all before last week.

“Maybe you’re scared, but at least you face it. I just run away.” He laughed shakily. “Every single one of my instincts is telling me to run away right now. That there’s no return from this.”

Teddy looked up, suddenly determined. He grabbed Billy’s hand. “But — that’s what I want. I can’t do this anymore. I want to change. I want to be more like you.

“You are special, Billy Kaplan. I’ve only known you a few weeks but I can see it. You’re clever and witty and talented and-” he almost stopped and backtracked, but he’d well and truly gone over the edge now. Might as well enjoy the freefall.

“And,” he continued, resolute, “you’re gorgeous. I like you. I really, really like you.”

Staying silent through Teddy’s speech was… well, it wasn’t hard. Billy couldn’t imagine ever being in a situation like Teddy’s, and what he was hearing now kind of left him speechless. He shook his head at Teddy’s insistence that he was special, because he wasn’t, he really wasn’t anything special. Or clever, witty, or talented for that matter. But Teddy thought so, and that was enough to make his heart beat double-time and his mouth to dry.

Wetting his lips, Billy came back with a lame, “Teddy… you’re amazing, really amazing, and thanks for telling me everything even though you didn’t have to - it… it means a hell of a lot, y’know?” and a bashful smile. He squeezed their interlocked fingers together hard and hoped that Teddy realised how much Billy wanted to kiss him, and how much it hurt to hold back on doing so; but if Teddy wasn’t comfortable with it just yet, not ready to be that out to the world, Billy could wait.

It wasn’t far to the closest McDonalds. Billy let go of Teddy’s hand when they neared the street, for which he was silently grateful. The warehouse was a safe space, but Teddy wasn’t sure he was ready to walk around in public holding hands with a guy. Not yet.

As they walked, Teddy practiced in his head what he was going to say.

Sorry I had a big gay panic and ignored you for a week after you took me into your confidence. No.

Sorry I almost killed you because I was distracted by your eyelashes. Oh god, double no.

When they arrived, he bought a little extra time to think by saying, “What do you want? I’ll go and order.”

“Just chips, please.” Billy smiled at him, sitting down in a red plastic chair.

When Teddy returned to their table with a tray of food, he still hadn’t decided how to begin. The silence stretched on, Billy picking at his chips and waiting graciously for Teddy to speak.

Show time. It was now or, well, not never, but no matter what Billy had said earlier, he deserved a medal for putting up with Teddy’s bullshit. An explanation was the very least Teddy owed him. He pushed his burger to the side.

“I’m sorry,” he said suddenly.“I’ve been so awful. When I dropped you earlier, when — when I ran away last week,” he babbled, before stopping abruptly, not knowing quite how to continue. He glanced at Billy, who was watching him patiently. Bright red, Teddy squeezed his eyes shut and bowed his head in shame. “And… I kissed you.” he forced out in a whisper.

He sighed defeatedly, and a few tears slipped down his cheeks. “How do you do it? I’ve never met anyone like you. You’re so strong. You don’t hide who you are, no matter the consequences. I can’t — I’m so scared, Billy.” He looked up at Billy, begging him to understand.

Billy waited with a concerned tilt to his head as Teddy gathered his thoughts, probably unaware of how completely terrified he looked as he did so. And then Teddy began to speak, and Billy forgot how because Teddy, beautiful, powerful, brilliant Teddy, was crying - and this time it wasn’t from a near death experience.

This was more than Billy was ready for and he didn’t know what to say, so he reached over and grabbed Teddy’s hand from where it was clenched on the tabletop and squeezed, wary of the people around them but ultimately more worried about Teddy than who was watching them.

“Teddy…” Billy swallowed, frowning as he tried to voice what he needed to say. “I don’t- It’s okay, I understand… And, I mean, I’m nothing special. I’ve never been anything special until I found out I was magic, and even now no one but you, Eli and Nate know I’m magic.” He shook his head and made sure that Teddy was looking at him before he continued. “Teddy, being scared? It’s okay. I’m still scared, every day I’m scared, but there’s not much I can do about the people at school anymore, all I can do now is let them know that I don’t care what they think. Just, I got sick of being someone I’m not, y’know? And I like who I am, and that freaks people out I think.”

Billy looked past Teddy’s shoulder and swallowed hard, “I don’t know what I’m doing, Teddy, any more than you do. I just kind of make it up as I go and hope for the best.” Smiling a little, Billy ignored the warmth that flooded his cheeks in favour of watching Teddy’s face to see if he was even making any sense. “And the kiss? Well, I kind of liked that if you couldn’t tell. Just like I kind of like you.”

Teddy faltered and almost pulled away when Billy didn’t respond, but then his mouth turned soft and pliant, and oh god, this was a thing that was actually happening. He slid one hand round the back of Billy’s neck, fingers brushing through the short hairs at the base of his scalp.

Billy pulled away, leaving Teddy blinking and slightly dazed. He looked up, and was snapped back to reality his teammates’ very immediate presence. Standing over them, Nate wore a satisfied smirk and Eli rolled his eyes, trying not to smile.

Teddy scrambled to his feet, mumbling apologies.

“Can it, Hulking,” Eli said good-naturedly. He turned to Nate. “We done here?”

Nate winked conspiratorially. “Mission accomplished,” he grinned.

They walked away together, leaving Teddy and Billy almost frozen in place with embarrassment.

Teddy cleared his throat loudly, and automatically went to shift his blush away before catching himself. No, he decided. No more lies. He offered a hand to Billy, who was still kneeling on the ground.

“Still up for that McDonalds?” He smiled weakly. “I guess I owe you an explanation.”

Billy laughed a little and nodded, quickly getting over his embarrassment at being caught by Eli and Nate as he slid his hand into Teddy’s and felt himself being pulled up and directly into Teddy’s personal space. Only this time, instead of worrying what Teddy would think over the lack of personal space between them, Billy smiled shyly and stepped back, leading the way to their stuff at the warehouse with Teddy trailing behind him - their hands still linked.

“An explanation would be nice, but I think you owe me McDonalds more.” Teddy didn’t owe him anything in reality, but he wouldn’t mind an explanation or McDonalds one bit. The hardest thing now would be not screwing this up by going too fast. Billy thought to himself. No matter how much I want to jump Teddy.

Relief and shock warred inside Teddy, his heart racing, until Billy touched his chest and everything slid into sharp focus. Teddy couldn’t help but beam down at him. “Magic,” he repeated thickly, shaking his head in disbelief.

Billy brushed his thumb against Teddy’s cheek, and he was smiling at him like the past week of awkward tension hadn’t even happened.

It was a revelation, Teddy’s fear suddenly seeming so trivial in the face of their mortality: Fuck the repercussions, fuck Eli and Nate watching, fuck everything. Teddy had been so awful and then he’d almost killed them,and Billy had turned around and saved them both.

“Oh, Billy,” he gasped, cradling Billy’s face in both hands. “I’m sorry. I’msorryI’msorryI’msorry.” Teddy’s voice cracked, breath hitching. He pressed his forehead to Billy’s, trying to communicate how strongly he meant it.

And then he moved forward the last few inches and did what he’d been wanting to do since the first day he’d met Billy but had been too scared to face. Hesitantly, giving him time to pull back, Teddy finally, finally kissed Billy.

Billy’s eyes were wide at Teddy’s apology, but they widened further as any reply he may have had was cut off by Teddy’s lips. His hands slipped from Teddy’s face to his neck and he made a startled noise at the contact, before teenage hormones and the fact that it was Teddy made him realise that yeah, kissing back was definitely a good idea.

Hands clenched in Teddy’s shirt, Billy relaxed into it and kissed back for all he was worth because he’d wanted this so badly and he’d thought… well, he’d thought nothing would happen after Teddy had basically shunned him after he came out but christ, he didn’t care why Teddy had avoided him because all that mattered was that they were alive and this was actually happening.

Breaking away from the kiss was harder than Billy had expected, and he darted in for an apologetic peck before leaning back a little and taking in Teddy’s flushed face and bright eyes, and completely ignoring the approaching footsteps and arguing voices of Eli and Nate. “So, uh, magic, huh?” The smile on Billy’s face was pleased, and he could probably guess why Teddy had ignored him with this revelation, but Teddy would talk to him on his own time and for now all he wanted to do was dance around at the fact that Teddy returned his feelings. Okay, that might take some getting used to.

The trees rushed up to meet them as the ground got closer and closer. Billy’s lips were moving but the words were lost in the roar of the wind. His eyes started glowing blue and he felt energy thrumming across his skin. This wasn’t like Billy’s usual lightning, this was something else, and Teddy didn’t recognise it.

Billy’s brows were furrowed as he mouthed the words, and Teddy was so caught up in his panic that he barely noticed their descent slowing. But slow it did, and then it stopped, and they were hovering in mid-air at head height. Billy was still mumbling, and Teddy could finally hear him.

I want to stop falling, he repeated over and over, eyes still filled with blue. Had Billy done this?

Suddenly realising that Billy now was the one holding him up, Teddy quickly shifted back to his normal, lighter form. The change broke Billy’s trance, distracting him from his chanting. His eyes returned to their normal brown, and they fell the last few feet, landing in an unceremonious heap on the grass.

He could hear Eli and Nate shouting and running over to them, but it was muffled compared to his focus on Billy, who was sprawled across Teddy’s chest. He carefully sat up, and Billy looked up at him, grinning wildly, a far-off look in his eyes. Teddy felt the same, the huge amount of adrenaline his body had produced in response to such peril making him shake. Almost detached, he felt tears tracking down his cheeks.

“What the hell,” Teddy took a huge, shuddering breath, “was that?”

He was shaking, and smiling and they were alive.

It took him a minute to compose himself enough to speak, the smile never leaving his face and his eyes never leaving Teddy’s. “Um,” Billy paused, not really sure how to respond because the thing was, he didn’t exactly know, “magic?”

Billy shook his head and brought his trembling hands up to touch Teddy’s chest, just to make sure this was actually happening, because oh god, he’d done that, he’d stopped them mid-fall (and, admittedly dropped them a little way as well but it was the not killing them that Billy was utterly perplexed by).

And, holy shit, he couldn’t get over the fact that it was him wasn’t it? That was all him, he could feel his magic humming and jittering across his skin like it wanted to come play some more. Billy honestly couldn’t believe it, how had he done it? Did it matter right now? Blinking hard, Billy raised his hand to Teddy’s face and wiped at his tears with his thumb, lip caught between his teeth and heart beating so hard he felt like he was going to explode, yet totally uncaring of the consequences and the fact that he could hear Nate and Eli getting closer, because you only got to live once, didn’t you?
