Chapter 73 - new feelings

On a Saturday night Liam is heading back to the villa from the Convenience store. As he was walking down the dark alleyway a random started following him, Lucas being scared fastened his pace but then suddenly a person tapped his back. Lucas quickly turned around and hit the person with the bag in his head. "Ow!" the guy cried, "You again!" he exclaimed, it was the ice cream guy. "Why are you following me in the middle of the night?!" he asked, "you should know it's not safe to walk around at night alone." the ice cream guy said.

Lucas sighed as he rolled his eyes. "Are you going to apologize for this?" the guy said pointing at his nose, "I'm sorry," Lucas said rolling his eyes. "Now will you excuse me," Lucas said as he walked away. Lucas couldn't stand this guy, somehow he always appeared when Lucas was around. "MY NAME IS STEVE!" he shouted as he followed behind him, Lucas stopped and turned to him. "Well Steve, can you please leave me alone!" he turned around once again and continued walking. "Why are you so cold?" Steve asked, Lucas fully stopped taking a deep breath. "Look, Steve if you're looking for someone to hook up with im not the right one. I am also not interested in anything you have to say!" "Who said i want to hook up with you?" Steve asked "do you not?" Steve shook his head, "I am interested in you and I want to talk to you, but you've made it clear that you're not interested." He sighed. "I'm sorry I came off rude but, my head space is fucked up right now." He told him.

Steve chuckled, "you're not the only one." Lucas smiled. "At least let me walk you back, it's really not safe to walk alone." He offered, "okay, but you better not say or do anything to piss me off." Lucas told him.

As they walked back to the villa, Steve kept making small talk, trying to lighten the tense atmosphere. Lucas, still guarded, eventually found himself sharing bits of his troubled thoughts with Steve. Surprisingly, Steve turned out to be a good listener, offering genuine empathy and understanding.

As they approached the villa, Lucas stopped and smiled. "Thank you for walking me and also listening to my stupid complaints." "You're welcome," "look at me being nice even after you rejected me." Steve laughed. "Don't be stupid." Lucas said. He waved at Steve and walked up to the door. "See you tomorrow?" Steve asked, Lucas shrugged his shoulders and entered the house.

Inside Jun was waiting at the door with his arms crossed. "So you finally gave in!" He rejoiced, "what do you mean?" Lucas asked taking his shoes off. "Ice cream guy just walked you home." Lucas chuckled, "he only walked me back because some creep was following me."

As they walked back to the villa, Steve kept making small talk, trying to lighten the tense atmosphere. Lucas, still guarded, eventually found himself sharing bits of his troubled thoughts with Steve. Surprisingly, Steve turned out to be a good listener, offering genuine empathy and understanding.

As they approached the villa, Lucas hesitated before inviting Steve inside. "You can come in for a bit, but just so you know, I'm not looking for anything more than conversation," Lucas warned. Steve agreed, and they spent the next hour talking about life, dreams, and everything in between.

As the night unfolded, Lucas realized that Steve wasn't just an annoying presence; he was someone who genuinely cared. They found common ground, shared laughter, and, in an unexpected turn of events, Lucas began to appreciate Steve's company.

The more they talked, the more Lucas's guard came down. It turned out that Steve had his own struggles, and in that shared vulnerability, an unexpected connection began to form.

As the sun started to rise, casting a warm glow over the villa, Lucas and Steve, once strangers on a dark alleyway, found solace in each other's company, building a connection that went beyond the surface. And so, on that Saturday night that started with a bag to the head, an unlikely friendship blossomed into something neither of them expected.

Jun raised an eyebrow, clearly intrigued. "Creep or not, it's progress. You might have found yourself an unexpected guardian angel."

Lucas rolled his eyes, dismissing the idea. "He's not my guardian angel. Just a persistent guy who happened to be there at the wrong time."

As the days passed, Lucas found Steve popping up more frequently, not just when he needed rescuing from potential creeps, but also in casual moments—coffee runs, chance encounters at the local bookstore, and even just sitting on the porch of the villa.

One evening, as the sun set over the horizon, Lucas and Steve found themselves engrossed in conversation on the villa's porch. Jun observed from a distance, a mischievous smile playing on his lips.

"So, are you two, like, a thing now?" Jun teased, unable to contain his curiosity.

Lucas shot him a glare, but Steve just laughed. "Nah, we're just friends... for now," he added with a playful wink. "And forever." Lucas added on. "Ouch!" Steve touched his chest, "how hurtful." He teased, "good, you should be hurting," Lucas said, "wow how heartless." Steve dramatically gasped. Jun chuckled, "I'm so done with you guys," he said, "Also can you stop flirting and come help me pack, we leave first thing tomorrow morning." Jun told Lucas.

"You guys are leaving tomorrow?" Steve asked, Jun nodded his head. Steve turned to look at Lucas and Lucas shrugged his shoulders. "Do you guys have to really leave!" He whined, "Yes,we're having my sort of family gathering. So we have to be there." Lucas replied, "Okay now, come and help me pack." Jun said as he entered the house.

"I'll see you tonight then," Lucas said as he got up, when he was about to walk away Steve grabbed him by the hand. Steve looked at him in the guys like he was telling him something, Lucas smiled and shook his head. "You promised, remember." Lucas said, Steve released his hand and sighed. "Maybe in my next life I'll get you." He said, "Don't be silly." Lucas chuckled as he went inside.

As the night unfolded, Lucas found himself torn between the upcoming departure with Jun and the unexpected connection he had formed with Steve. Later that evening, Lucas joined Jun in packing, the atmosphere filled with a mix of excitement for the family gathering and a tinge of melancholy for the friendships left behind.

As the night drew to a close, Lucas and Steve met again outside the villa. The air was charged with unspoken sentiments. "So, this is it?" Steve asked, his usual playful demeanor replaced with a hint of sadness.

Lucas nodded, "Yeah, we'll be gone for a while. But who knows, maybe we'll cross paths again."

Steve chuckled, "Fate works in mysterious ways, right?"

Before Lucas could respond, Jun called him from the doorway, signaling that it was time to leave. With a final wave, Lucas and Jun embarked on their journey, leaving Steve standing in the quiet night, watching them disappear into the distance.As the night unfolded, Lucas found himself torn between the upcoming departure with Jun and the unexpected connection he had formed with Steve.
