catching up [gray]

[CANYON HART PIERCE]

Ugh, this was pathetic. He was pathetic. He remembered a time he could out run his mother, and now, here he was, practically dragging himself up the four flights of stairs to get to his dorm room after only running a few miles. He lost track of how many laps he ran around the track but he knew he ran no more than five miles. During the summer breaks, his mother usually took him hiking for miles and miles and miles. In the mornings and evening, they would run together for as long as they could – at least five miles. He couldn’t even manage that now.

This year was the worst year of his life. Thirteen was no longer his lucky number, it seemed, and he could only give the plate on his door marking the room number a blaming glare as he entered it – as if it was the reason he was as miserable as he was. 413. The same number he’s had the previous years and the same number of December’s room. He no longer wanted it but he couldn’t do anything about it. He’d be over it the second he stepped into the cold shower. Thankfully his roommate was nowhere to be seen and the second the door was closed behind him he stripped; though, he left it unlocked. His roommate had a tendency of forgetting his keys in the room.

He was not ready to accept what had happened to him but at the same time… he was. He needed to talk to someone about everything that’s been going on. Someone he could count on. He didn’t want a Guidance counselor or a therapist or anything. He wanted someone he could relate to. Someone he could trust.

Fresh out of the shower and cooled down from his afternoon run, Canyon quickly tugged the rest of his clothes on so he could crawl into bed and relax. He just slipped on a muscle shirt and a pair of loose-fitting sweatpants and flopped into bed. Canyon wasn’t normally a lazy person but the second he settled on his little mattress, he didn’t want to get up.

Gray had spent the previous night with Kai, and tonight he had planned to spend with Canyon - if his friend was up for it. He had missed him during the summer and had worried about him too, though Gray knew that putting that in words most likely just irked Canyon, who still seemed to want to act like nothing was wrong. Sometimes Gray let him, but at the end of the night he'd hug him in that way that said I'm so glad you're still here, I've been so fucking scared and knew that Can knew exactly how he felt about everything.

Yawning a little, Gray padded up the stairs to the Seniors dormitory, knocking on the door once he had reached Can's room. He hoped the boys roommate wasn't around, that they'd have a chance to talk uninterrupted, if not they could just 'catch up' and leave the serious talks for later. He had plenty to tell, after all. About Kai, who had asked if he was into Canyon (something he figured Can would laugh about), about Alex whom he had met earlier today. He figured Can had seen through him the other day at lunch, because the look his friend had shot him after he'd flushed was obvious enough.

"Can-Can" He called out when the door wasn't opened soon enough (though soon enough in Grays mind was within a few seconds), rapping his fingers on the wall next to the door impatiently. "Are you here baby?" He could somewhat understand why Kai thought he was into him. Gray was pretty affectionate with friends, calling them baby or sweetie without a second thought. But the question had still almost made him laugh, because he had been thinking it was oh so obvious that he was into someone else.

He just… did not want to get up. Which was so unusual of him. Canyon was a normally very active guy. He hated not doing anything, and though he wasn’t exactly enjoying his laying around at the moment, he still didn’t want to do anything. A gentle pout brushed his lips and he grabbed a pillow of his to cuddle. The only thing he hated more than being lazy is being alone.

But that looked like it was fixing itself. Canyon’s head tilted to look at the door when he heard the knocking. He wondered if it was his roommate and had planned on staring at it until the guy figured the door was unlocked for him, but then he heard a familiar voice. Gray! Quickly, he sat up and moved his pillow to the side. He still didn’t want to get up but at least he moved. “It’s open!” he called, a devious smile snaking across his lips now. “Come in, Gray.” Now he held the pillow up, peeking around it. The second Gray opened the door, he threw the pillow at his friend playfully. “Think fast!” It was the only warning he gave his friend before he assaulted him so happily with the fluffy thing. He was happy his friend had decided to visit. It had been a while since he’s really talked to Graham and they really needed one. That meant no his roommate would just have to wait if he wanted in. Maybe it would remind him to start bringing his keys with him when he leaves.

Slowly, Canyon pulled himself off the bed with that wide smile of his. He moved around Gray to shut the door and lock it. “Glad you decided to pay me a visit,” he grinned, “For a little while, I thought I was going to have to break into your room and surprise you in order to get your attention.” And he’d do it, too. That was a known fact.

Graham entered and managed to duck just in time when a pillow came flying at him. He figured that without his animal instincts he would've been hit straight in the face, but he still scowled at his friend, though only in jest. "Is that how you treat best friends, CanCan?" Shaking his head, he waited for his friend to lock the door before he pulled him into a bear hug, holding him tight for a moment, then squeezing his shoulder as he let go of him. "Nah, you know me. I was just busy last night, but you were my main priority today" He had been thinking about him all day. Not in the way Kai apparently seemed to think he was, but Can had still been on his mind. He had missed him something fierce, and he had been worried too. Needing to know if he was alright.

Plopping himself down on Canyons bed, he grinned at him and waited for his friend to join him. He looked tired, so Gray wasn't going to ask him if he wanted to go somewhere, he was just going to fall down on the bed and see it as a given that Can needed to rest a little. Maybe it was frustrating, treating him like he was fragile, but he was, and it wasn't like Gray tried to do everything for him. He just tried to take care of people, it had been like that long before the cancer had affected Canyon. When his mother had gotten cancer he had already been used to taking care of his family, but it had definitely intensified his urge to be there for others.

"How are you, sweetie?" He had asked him that yesterday, but now he meant how was Canyon really doing. He'd allow for some superficial answer when others were around, but now that it was just the two of them he wanted the truth.

A sheepish smile claimed his mouth as he picked the pillow back up after his failed attempt at trying to hit Gray with it. “You know me, Gray,” was all he said to the comment about the pillow and he just managed to throw it back on the bed before he as lovingly assaulted with a friendly hug. With a chuckle, Canyon wrapped his arms around Graham in a return hug, squeezing him a bit before letting him go. Oh, Canyon really needed one of those and he was glad to have gotten one from his friend. Graham knew just how to give the best hugs, didn’t he? Graham also knew how to distract Canyon of his worries. “Busy last night? Oh~ do tell! Was it with Kai~?” Of course, he was just teasing. Canyon actually assumed that Graham had been busy with school work or something like that. He just couldn’t help remembering what happened at lunch the other day and how Graham had acted around Kai.

Canyon didn’t waste any time when Gray had made himself comfortable. He flopped back onto the small bed of his, twisting his body awkwardly so he was half on his back and half on his side, offering Gray enough room while still being able to look up at his friend. “I’m fine,” he sighed, “Just… not tired but… tired.” It was the best way he could put it. He wasn’t tired in the sense that he wanted to sleep. He was… fatigued. Was that the word? He was sore and frustrated and, and, and… missing something. “I’m just not used to this.” He was referring to being weak from his cancer. “I’m not used to… being alone.” It was added after a moment and for a split second, he wondered if Gray heard about December…

“But enough about me. How are you?”

(scars make us who we are)

Of course Gray flushed when Canyon asked if he'd spent the night before with Kai. "Yes, but not like that" Not that he wouldn't have loved if it was like that - a romantic night underneath the stars, lying in each others arms and sharing sweet kisses, it sounded like a dream, but that's all it would ever be. "What is up with you and Kai? I swear, last night he asked me if I liked you. Like .. I don't even know" It had been such a retarded question that for a moment or two, Gray had been unable to even formulate an answer. He had never once considered Canyon in that way. Not that his friend wasn't cute, but it was sort of like incest. Can was like a brother, one that just happened to be born into another family.

Shaking his head, Gray stretched out on the bed, reaching out to squeeze Can's wrist when he mentioned being tired and, then, lonely. "You know I'm always here for you, right sweetie? Whenever you need me, whatever you need me for. If it's three in the morning and you need me to hold back your hair so you can throw up, I'mma be here for you" That's what friends did, and he wouldn't even want to hear an apology for having woken him up. As long as Can considered him his friend, he would do anything for the boy. To Gray, friendship was helping each other out and being there for one another, unconditionally. Through better and worse, even more so than husbands or wives, because although you could divorce a life partner you shouldn't be able to get rid of a friend that easily.

"Nuhuh, not enough about you. It's just us now baby, it's time for you to talk to me." About anything Canyon needed to talk about, and maybe even about those things that he'd rather keep locked up inside. Gray was like him in that respect, he kept his problems close to his chest, but even he knew how bad that could sometimes be. How sometimes all it took was one friend that didn't take the bullshit and had the courage to ask. Sure, maybe he'd poke a bit too hard at things that were still sensitive, but he'd be there regardless of the aftermath. And although he didn't deal with crying boys (or girls) well, he was man enough to stay.

“He asked if you liked me?” Canyon couldn’t help but get hung up over that part, “After lunch?” The senior couldn’t think of any action that may have suggested Gray liked him in the least. Yeah… They hugged but isn’t that how he greets all his friends? Even now, with Graham stretched across his bed at his side, nothing suggested that he liked Canyon more than… friends. Or family. What could have made Kai jump to that conclusion? “Maybe he likes you,” he blurted it out before he could properly go over the idea of it in his head, “I mean… I don’t think you act like you like me,” he had to make sense of the idea now, “You treat me like you do every other friend of yours. Maybe he feels like I’m stepping in on his territory.” It made perfect sense to Canyon. He hoped it made sense to Gray, too.

Canyon wasn’t getting out of this so easily, was he? Gray was going to make sure he talked about his issues if he had to break his arm. At least that’s how Canyon viewed it. And it wasn’t like Canyon didn’t want to talk about it. He just… He didn’t want to accept it. The cancer, he could accept. And he has accepted that. It was… everything else he refused to believe. But he knew he had to. He had to accept everything that has happened or he’ll never be able to move on with his life. He’ll just take it… one step at a time.

“I know you are, dear,” he started with a pout, “I wish you were my roommate. I’m in the bathroom, throwing up my insides in the middle of the night and he just tells me to quiet down,” and that wasn’t the worst part. The worst part was that Canyon actually feels bad for disturbing his roomie. “Can cancer weaken the immune system? I’ve never been so sick so frequently in my life.” Though, cancer probably wasn’t the only variable in this problem. Stress, he knew, could weaken the immune system and if he wasn’t stressed, Canyon didn’t know what this was.

He did have some good news, though: “I made a new friend.” No, he wasn’t talking about December. Yet. He needed baby steps. “His name is Jin Li and he’s in photography with me. And he was worried about me,” Canyon glanced up at Gray, “We would pass each other in the halls last year before I got sent to the hospital and we would smile at each other, and then, quietly, he added, “I wanted to be his friend before but I didn’t try…”

Yeah. Sure. Gray couldn't help snorting and shaking his head at the same time, shifting until he was lying on his stomach so he could look at his friend. "Trust me, Kai is not interested in me like that. He's very much straight" If Gray hadn't loved him so damn much - as a friend - he might have put some more distance between them, because it was hard to get over a crush when you were practically with someone every day. "But he might think you're going to replace him as my best friend? I don't know. It's stupid. I love both of you" If he had to point out the one person he always went to with everything it would be Kai. Except his crush on the boy and some things that he didn't really want him knowing - because it would not put himself in a good light. Can was there for those things, and he was there for a lot of other things too. Gray loved them both, he wouldn't trade either in for something else.

"Aw sweetie" It upset him to hear those things. If he had just kept his act together in Sophomore year he would be a Senior now, and he might have been able to room with Can. "C'mere" He tugged him into his arms, dropping a kiss to the top of Canyons head, easy affection that he gave all his friends, Kai included. "You're gonna get better, you know. And you can always come and spend the night with me if you feel sick. I don't give a damn what anyone says, my roommate included." He wanted to be sure that Canyon was alright, that he would come to him if he wasn't alright, regardless what the time of day (or night) was. If he'd just been sick it would've still been the same, but Can had (had?) cancer, that wasn't just something you shrugged off.

Playing a bit with Canyons hair, Graham smiled when his friend said he'd made a new friend. He didn't know Jin that well, but they'd seen each other a few times and he'd given off a good vibe. "I'm glad to hear that." Not just that he had made a friend, but that Jin had cared enough to worry when he wasn't there. "Why didn't you?" He wondered. Can was a sweet person, unless someone was really rude or obnoxious he doubted they would mind being his friend.

[CANYON HART PIERCE]

Okay, so, Kai was straight. Perhaps Canyon’s idea didn’t make any sense at all. Gray’s, however, did make sense. Maybe Kai was just a jealous friend. Whatever the reason it was, Canyon thought it was silly. He wasn’t trying to steal anyone’s best friend or anything like that. He was content with what he and Graham shared and he hoped to share something similar with Kai. He understood that Gray and Kai were probably closer but he didn’t mind so much. He could still rely on Gray and that was all that mattered. At least it was before this year. He had December, after all, so it was okay for Graham to have Kai. Regardless, he wasn’t trying to invade on anything. He loved his friends and wouldn’t do anything to push them away. “It is stupid,” was all he said on the matter now.

He didn’t reject the affections his friend paid him. Canyon simply just pouted and hugged Graham back. He had kicked cancer’s ass over the summer but the aftermath that was unleashed on his body during the fight was hard to clean up. Quite often Canyon was found sick and simple ailments like a cold can leave him zombiefied if not keep him in bed. His immune system must have always been shot to pieces but now it just seemed worse. Yes, he was now cancer and tumor free but he was still as sick as ever. “I couldn’t do that to you,” he mumbled quietly, “I’d keep you up all night – and your roommate.” He simply just could do that to his friend. Though, after a moment of thought he said, “Maybe we can switch roommates. Your roomie can come up here and I’ll just go down there,” now that he was willing to do. He wasn’t entirely sure if it was possible but he was pretty sure it wouldn’t be allowed.

Why didn’t he befriend Jin last year? “Because,” he paused, trying to remember why he just didn’t walk up to the little guy and start a conversation. It wasn’t like he didn’t have plenty of opportunities. But he knew the answer. He knew it from the very beginning… “Well… You… You remember December,” he looked at Gray and his voice dropped to a saddened whisper. He expected the boy to know everything Canyon did. That Canyon was her only friend and, because of that, she didn’t like him being friends with too many other people. She was afraid that he’d find someone worth his time and leave her for them. “I was always with her and when I wasn’t with her, I was with you.” Was that a good enough answer? Was it plausible? Could that have really stopped him from befriending Jin before now?

Gray murmured an agreement to Canyons comment about Kai being stupid, petting the brunettes hair as he held him close. It was nice to be held like this. It was the kind of thing that made him long for a boyfriend, though at the same time he liked the simplicity of this situation. Canyon didn't have an interest in him, at least not in a manner that went past simple friendship, and Gray felt the same. So cuddling up together was natural and easy, like two kittens sharing warmth and falling asleep feeling lighter and happy. Gray loved cuddling with Kai too but it was different. He was always tense, wondering if Kai could hear his heartbeat, trying to commit every second to memory so he would always remember, once his friend found someone to replace him with. He shifted a little so he could kiss the top of Canyons head, chuckling when the other mentioned becoming roomies. "We should. Why don't we?" He doubted the Headmaster cared, and even if he did, Gray didn't care. He loved Can and he would happily sacrifice a good nights rest if it meant his friend felt a bit more comfortable. "I can drag your stuff down to mine anytime." And he would too. Tonight, if Canyon was serious.

He just hummed when Canyon mentioned December. To be honest he had never paid the girl much mind. She didn't seem to like him much, but then, she didn't seem to like anyone Canyon had befriended. "I'm glad you made a friend sweetie" He did his best to always be there for his friends, and especially for his two best friends, but with school and homework and the sport he played he couldn't always be there right when he was needed. It was nice to know that Can had someone else he could potentially learn to rely on. "I wish you had someone to love you too, though. Someone you could be with." Someone that would hold Can at night when he was fearful (Gray would, but it was different), someone that could make him smile and kissed him and made him feel loved.

Canyon loved how he and Graham were. He loved how they could be total friends – just friends – and hug and cuddle and do everything else guys normally… don’t do with each other. He loved that they were comfortable enough with their relationship in order to do that. Canyon obviously had no feelings for Gray beyond an extremely close friendship. He was straight or so he thought and didn’t care what others thought of him. They weren’t him and had no control over him. Honestly, he didn’t understand why people freak out over each other, anyway. If you don’t like something, don’t let it affect your life. Freaking out over it just causes drama and the world would be a better place without all that unnecessary conflict.

Speaking of, his roommate did cause a little when Canyon got sick. And if anyone didn’t need so much stress in their life, it’s him. Quietly, Canyon went over the pros and cons of switching rooms with Gray’s roommate: he’d be on the third floor which means less stairs to climb after he makes himself sick on the track, he’d be with a friend with an uplifting mood rather than a sour one, Jin would be on the floor below him so if he ever needed Canyon it wouldn’t take long to reach him… On the other hand, Kai was on this floor and if he was getting possessive over his friends, that would just add to the drama. Maybe. Kai seemed like a sweet guy. He might just keep what troubles him bottled up in order to avoid it. Either way, Canyon did not want that. Then there was the fact that they may get in trouble but the only way someone would find out about that would be if there’s a nark in their midst. The main issue would be keeping Gray up if he becomes ill again. He didn’t want to be a negative factor in the equation of school. All he could manage to say was, “Are you sure?” If Graham honestly wanted to be roomies with him, Canyon was all for it.

Canyon had already decided to introduce Jin to Graham and Kai. He was a sweet, little boy and just as precious as could be. Shy, though, so Canyon wanted to give Jin time. Plus, he kind of wanted to hog Jin a little first. If anyone knew Jin, they’d understand why too. Canyon couldn’t help smiling as he thought about the sophomore. “I am, too.” Though, as Graham went on to speak about love, Canyon’s smile faded. He wanted that too… He wanted that for the both of them. “It might take a little while but I’ll get back in the game, Gray, don’t worry,” he peeked at his friend. “You deserve that, too, you know,” oh, he still remembered the little, flustered incident at lunch, “Is there anyone you have your eye on?”

"Yes baby I'm sure" To Graham, there were no downsides. He'd get to live with an awesome roommate, whom he could hug and be affectionate with without either of them thinking there was something more going on. Can was straight, Gray was not, regardless of the fact that he'd never outright said so to anyone he figured Canyon knew. They were friends, the closest of, and both were affectionate in friendships, hugging and cuddling and giving each other the occasional kiss on the cheek. Graham liked that about Can, liked being able to be himself with him, the way he couldn't with his roommate. Oh, the boy was a nice guy, sure enough, but he was quiet and studious and hated how messy Gray could get sometimes. Graham was sure Can wouldn't mind as much, and as for waking him up in the middle of the night, well, that was hardly a chore. He would gladly be there for him if he needed him, rubbing his back or getting him glasses of water, tucking his hair back when it threatened to fall into his face when he was throwing up. Those were all things people did for their friends, and Graham really didn't, for one second, mind that it meant he'd be woken up a lot. "If you'll feel more comfortable with me as your roommate, well, I'll be happy to room with you because it means I feel more comfortable too" Not just for Can, because it meant less worrying about whether or not he needed him, but also for himself.

It was settled then. Whenever Can was able to, they'd move their stuff, and if that meant they'd just grab something to sleep on for tonight, that was cool. Gray knew his roommate wouldn't mind switching, he'd probably be happy he'd get a quieter boy back. So all was well, and Gray would room with Can. Even if Kai got upset about it - which he doubted he would, since Kai ought to know there was nothing going on between him and well, anyone - they would deal with it and it would all work out.

Speaking of Kai, Gray couldn't help flushing again when Canyon asked if there was someone he had his eye on. That obvious, huh? "Um" He started, his usual eloquence (haha) vanishing when he was confronted with his feelings. Graham didn't do emotional talks well, at least not when they pertained to him. It was fine talking about someone else, helping them and making them feel better, but it was a lot harder to admit that he too had feelings. "There's .. well, yeah. But y'know, he's um .. not interested." Which sucked, but it was the truth. "I'm not exactly the right gender for him."

((OOC)) so late again sorry!

[/justify][/size]

[CANYON HART PIERCE]

So it was settled. Canyon would be moving into Graham’s dorm and Gray’s roommate would be evicted, forced to live with the goblin known as Canyon’s roommate under the rickety bridge. He absently wondered how well they would work out. Canyon’s roommate probably wouldn’t care as long as the other guy remained out of his space and quiet at night. Canyon’s roommate was hardly around as it was. The only time he returned was when he was ready for bed. It was the perfect plan, really. Canyon wondered why he hadn’t thought about it on the first day when he realized his roommate was a grouch. He was positive Gray would be the best roommate ever and with one less of a stress on his life, he might not be sick so often. And Gray even said he’d be helping him, too. They’ll just have to pick a day to get it done. This could only be for the best, right?

Well… as long as Kai didn’t think Canyon was trying to replace him, that is.

Canyon grinned as he heard Gray’s response to his question. He should have remembered Graham had an issue speaking about himself. The junior was so sweet and selfless. He always worried about everyone else and didn’t give himself enough attention. Canyon would make sure his worries got tended to, too. He was only human, after all. And even if he wasn’t, Superman had feelings too. Though, as Graham continued, his smile faded. Love must be hard to find for someone that liked the same gender. Even though Gray never came out and straight up said I’m gay! Canyon always assumed that he was. Not bisexual, but gay. As far as the senior could remember, Graham had never been that interested in girls. “I’m sorry, sweetie. That must suck.” He wanted to make his friend feel better since he was the one that brought it up. “There’s no one else?” Maybe Canyon should just switch the conversation back to him. Or someone else. Canyon was fine talking about himself and he honestly wanted to hear about Graham but he didn’t want to make the other upset or uncomfortable. “You’re too sweet not to love. You’ll find someone.”

Graham shrugged a shoulder. "Yeah, it kinda does, but what can you do, right?" It wasn't like he could turn himself into a girl (though wouldn't that be neat to have as a shifter form) and even if he would've been able to it wasn't a guarantee that Kai would like him. Sure, he knew the Senior cared about him, they were best friends, but he had never thought Kai would see him in a romantic way, even if he hadn't been straight. He was just good ol' Graham Kerr, the best friend, the boy next door. And it was fine, most days, but he couldn't deny that sometimes he wished he could just find someone who would want him for him. There was Alex, sure, but with his crush on Kai he doubted it would work between him and the blonde. Still, at least Alex had looked at him with desire and had wanted to kiss him. It was better than nothing. "At least we're friends, so there's that. I'm just gonna have to watch him get married to a girl but hey" He wrinkled his nose and shrugged, bumping Canyons shoulder with his own in an attempt to lighten the mood. "I'll just get piss drunk after the wedding and all shall be well."

Can was so sweet, telling him he'd find someone. Gray never thought of himself in terms of being sweet or lovable or good enough for someone (especially not for Kai, who was pretty much the perfect boy), but it was nice to hear one of his friends say that he thought different. "Well, there's Alex. I met him earlier today and we sorta .. made out." He grinned at the memory, at having someone close whom he could touch and kiss and grab as he saw fit. "But with my crush on Kai an-" Well, okay, shit, he hadn't meant to say that, but Can had probably already known anyway. Damn too smart for himself boy. "well, I just doubt it'll go anywhere. I mean, I may not be the greatest catch in the world, but I have standards, you know? I don't want to date someone if I'm not head over heels for them. It's not fair."

[CANYON HART PIERCE]

Woah, woah, woah… Back up a moment. That was a lot of information to take in in only about five seconds. Had Canyon heard him right? There was a guy named Alex and Graham made out with him? But… Gray had a crush on Kai? Canyon wasn’t as surprised with the information involving Kai because… Well, he had two eyes and had been there at lunch. He wasn’t blind. But who was this Alex person? And why was Gray making out with him? Canyon had never heard of him before. At least he didn’t remember… Honestly, the senior would rather have Graham end up with Kai than with any other random person. Kai seemed like a nice guy and Canyon thought he could trust him to take care of his best friend.

“We need to back up a minute,” Canyon looked at him, the confusion evident on his face, “First of all, who is this Alex dude? And why were you making out with him?” Canyon had to get his facts straight before he went around throwing his two cents into the situation. He didn’t want to somehow manage to upset Graham or anything. Matters like these were always complicated and things could get misinterpreted easily. “Secondly, just because Kai is ‘straight’—” he raised his hands and air quoted the word, “Doesn’t mean he doesn’t like guys. There are such things as a cover up and discovering true feelings. Besides, I’ve heard you can’t really tell what sexual preference you have until you get all down in the dirty and bump uglies.” Yes. He really just said that. And he might know… His experience with “bumping uglies” so far wasn’t that great. “So don’t get your hopes all twisted into a negative knot. Tell CanCan about everything so I can see if I can help.”
