Camp Closeted novel Chapter 12

"I don't know what type of holy ghost came over you but okay, let me see it." Benny crossed his arms as he slowly leaned back towards his chair. "Just promise me you won't be cringey."

"I am not cringey." I defended, then taking a deep breath as I looked down at the table. I finally got enough energy to lift up my body off the table as Benny laughed to himself.

I finally turned around with my eyes closed, continuing to breathe deeply as I was wondering what to say once I do get there.

The second I began to start walking, I felt my body hit against a tall wall. But instead, exchange that tall wall to skin, to a strong masculine skin that radiated cologne.

It was Jesse.

"Hi." His reddened lips smirked, his ocean blue eyes piercing through mine as he bat his long black lashes at me.

"Hi." My mouth dropped as I was caught so off guard with how close he was to my body.

"You okay?" Jesse huskily asked.

"I'm okay. Are you okay?" Oh god why do I sound like such a robot.

"I'm doing great." His body began to slightly brush against mine as his smirk was widening.

"Great." My cheeks were insanely red as my heart began to beat faster.

"Cool." He licked over his lips.

"Cool." I breathed heavily. "You're a little too close don't you think." I slightly pushed him away, not being able to suppress a smile.

"My bad, no homo though." He teased as I rolled my eyes at him.

"Shut up." I laughed.

A voice spoke behind Jesse, making his eyes shift to the side but keeping his body only an inch away from mine. "Aye Jess we playing ball or what?"

"I'll meet you guys there." He responded, a strand of slick black hair effortlessly falling down his blue eyes. "C'ya." He winked, ruffling my hair as he began to walk away.

"Oop!" I slowly turned back towards Benny, his face completely and utterly shocked. "The sexual tension was too damn much, Micah." I remained quiet.

"Just finished band practice, what's up guys?" Logan's energetic voice appeared out of nowhere, both of us remaining quiet as we watched him sit down on the table, throwing all of us a confused look.

Benny finally spoke. "Well our good friend Micah over here is literally 1 step away from getting dicked down." What Benny said quickly snapped me out of it.

"What? Ew." I chuckled. "Not even."

Logan's face looked slightly bothered for some reason. "By who?"

"Jesse Rezeti." Benny sipped out of his cup as Logan almost went ballistic.

"Shut the fuck up, no way!" Logan's mouth dropped at me.

"Mhm." Benny agreed. "Not as fine as my bae, my boo, the love of my life Miles though." He let out a noise of sadness. "I would kill just to hug that fine ass man!" His fist rapidly struck down on the table, making me flinch.

"This is terrible." Logan laughed. "Can we not cry about boys we don't have a chance with and talk about something else?" Everyone remained quiet, making Logan speak again. "Are you guys planning to attend the Bonfire this weekend?"

"Hell no!" Benny shook his head as he furrowed his eyebrows down. "Last time I went, the bonfire was too damn big and I felt my skin get seared from 20 mountains away."

"Benny don't exaggerate, no one ever gets close to it anyway. They sit far from it and watch it from a distance." Logan laughed as Benny rolled his eyes to the back of his skull.
