Alex was pleased that Juno would at least try...he hugged the boy back and held him close, never wanting to let him go, wanting Juno to know that he would be there forever.
*cough* *cough* Alex turned around slowly to see another boy standing behind them..."enough with the lovey dovey stuff...Juno you need to get back to work!"

Blushing brightly, it quickly changed to a look of annoyance, and turning he and alex sideways he kicked the door shut, and with a satisfying click, he knew it was locked. Gazing into Alex's eyes, Juno grinned as the blush slowly returned to his cheeks. Knocks and cussing could be heard on the other side of the door, but he just tuned it out, and soon enough, the obnoxious boy was gone.

His friend stood there glaring at the door almost breathless from his unacknowledged efforts to get into the stocks room, and as if he had an epiphany, his face lit up. Running to the till he bent down behind the large obstructing item, and popped a CD into the player. Turning most of the sound to the stocks room he grinned triumph and chuckled lightly.

"I made the spark, you just have to fuel the flame." He muttered thinking allowed as he gazed to the hall at the back corner of the store that led to the room the two men were in, and nodded as he heard the faint sounds of the music.

In the Stocks room, a subtle music could be heard. It wasn't loud, but it could be heard perfectly as it echoed faintly through the room as he stood there staring up at his beholder.

"It started out as a feeling
Which then grew into a hope
Which then turned into a quiet thought
Which then turned into a quiet word

And then that word grew louder and louder
'Til it was a battle cry
I'll come back
When you call me
No need to say goodbye

Just because everything's changing
Doesn't mean it's never been this way before
All you can do is try to know who your friends are
As you head off to the war

Pick a star on the dark horizon
And follow the light
You'll come back when it's over
No need to say goodbye

You'll come back when it's over
No need to say goodbye

Now we're back to the beginning
It's just a feeling and no one knows yet
But just because they can't feel it too
Doesn't mean that you have to forget

Let your memories grow stronger and stronger
'Til they're before your eyes
You'll come back
When they call you
No need to say goodbye

You'll come back
When they call you
No need to say goodbye."

Alex just held Juno closer as they started to sway to the sound of the music

Juno grinned resting his head onto Alex's shoulder, and let out a sigh of bliss as he felt the steady rhythm of their slow swaying. Closing his eyes, he hummed gently along with the music, and grinned thanking Alex for finding him, and asking him on their first technical date.

The next day after school Alex walked down to the little store and there was Juno standing behind the counter. He walked behind the counter and pulled him into the little room around the corner. He looked at Juno and said "i love you" before crashing his lips against Juno's. Then Alex remebered that he had told Junop that he would take it slow. "OH GOD i am sorry..."he turned and started to walk out the door...

Weak in the knees, Juno turned to face the taller of the two, and pulled him back snaking his arms around his neck, and pressed their lips together once more. "Don't be..." He muttered separating their lips only by an inch or so.

"are you..."he didn't have time to finish beofre he was swept up in another kiss. He pulled apart and looked odwn a Juno, "you wanna come to dinner at my house? I am making pizza?"

"Yes, I would love to join you for diner." Juno agreed to the proposal, and nuzzled their noses together sweetly.

They walked out of the store and down the street...later they reached Alex's house. Alex walked into the kitchen, washed his hands and started to make the pizza. All Alex could think about the boy in the other room and about it was too soon to say it, but it was the truth of the matter...Alex loved Juno.

Juno sat cross-legged on the couch comfortably as he flipped through a book that he had found sitting on the coffee table before him. Every once and a while he'd look up through the doorway at Alex, and soon found himself flushing, and grinning at him everytime he'd look up.

Soon the smell of warm pizza filled the little dorm room.
"pizzas ready!" Alex said rather proudly.
Alex pulled plates out of the cupboard and placed them on the table, he then pulled out some knives and forkes...not sure if that ws how Juno te his pizza.
"come ad get some" Alex said taking a piece and putting it n Juno's plate before hje took ne of his own and then took a fork and a knife and started to eat his pizza.

Staring at the fork and knife, Juno took them in his hand reluctantly and began to eat his own food.
"This is... This is really good." he muttered happily as he devoured his pizza slowly.

Alex laughed out loud, as he saw Juno trying to eat pizza with a knife and fork! "You can eat with your fingers, i am just a freak and like to be different and eat pizza with a knife and fork, but feel free to eat with your fingers as i said before and now i am repeating myself, and know i am blabbing......okay i am going to shut up now." Alex looked down at his plate as he started to blush.
