High heaved a sigh of relief as he got some communication back.
“Okay. Do you want to call someone to take you to the hospital? I don’t drive or I would do it.”
Mark nodded no.
“Okay, then shower to get clean first okay? Then I will put you to bed and head home.”
“Then I’ll wash your clothes and return them tomorrow, okay?” He waited for an answer when one didn’t come. He turned back and Mark was just staring at his own hands in utter confusion tears streaming down his face.
“Are you hurt? Do you need help?” High asked in confusion and worry tinging his voice making it raise an octave. He cleared his throat subconsciously before walking the three steps to Mark and grabbing him gently by the shoulder, then glancing over him to see if there were any external injuries.
He couldn’t see any so he just watched Mark. The moment High’s hand had fallen on Mark’s shoulder the kid had visibly tensed and then yet relaxed in the same moment. High couldn’t tell if the kid hated being touched and that’s what was upsetting him. Or if he really liked it a lot and couldn’t decide what to do about it.
“Let’s go get you showered okay?” High said, pulling off his sticky shirt and folding it nicely before placing it on the edge of the sink in the bathroom. He would put it on the floor, but he didn’t want to get Mark’s room dirty. He started to unbuckle his pants when he noticed the kid wasn’t moving.

Mark watched him undress, blatantly staring. High flushed under the assault of his eyes. ‘Wow, yup, I have never been so sure of how little gender matters to me than right now.’ High cleared his throat and turned away before re-zipping up his pants.

High chuckled awkwardly. “Anyway, why aren’t you getting undressed?”
“My arms really hurt now.” Mark said half out of it.
High sighed. ‘Poor baby.’
“If your arms hurt from all the pulling, and swimming I will help you take off your clothes, okay.” High said, feeling sorry for Mark who had tried to pull someone soaking wet, stuck in mud and bigger than him out of a boggy area.
Mark nodded, looking sleepy.
High reached forward nervously, he had read so many BL so many times that he could almost picture all the undress, and the scenes that would ensue after.
Doing this for another man he didn’t really know sent his mind back to all those pages and made him slightly excited.
He gulped. Then reached his hand down to pull the shirt tucked inside the other guy’s pants out from inside them. His fingers slid the sticky wet sweatshirt up Mark’s chest and tried to pull it over his head.
He was leaning in so close because he was tired and the clothing was wet and hard to pull off, he had it up halfway, but that’s where it seemed to want to stay as his arms screamed at him that even he had had enough for the night.
High groaned when he looked down and saw the overshirt tangled up with another. ‘This kid has a shirt on under the shirt? In this weather? How was this night so hellishly divine, yet so painstakingly bad at the same time?’
High yanked at the shirt with all his might giving it a second try and ended up kinda pulling the poor tired kid against his naked chest as he tried to pull the shirt up and off as the other shirt pulled up for a moment, getting caught and revealing Mark’s chest for a moment before the momentum of release thrust their two naked chests into each other firmly.
High froze as Mark went rigid next to him.
High’s heartbeat picked up and he looked down. The biggest dark brown eyes he had ever seen were staring at him in shock as he clutched to High’s naked chest.
High cleared his throat, his heart pounding fast, He knew with how he reacted that not only did he find Mark cute in an adorable kinda puppy way, but also that Mark was well toned and built beneath those double layers and it was affecting him how it shouldn’t.
Mark’s big eyes, shaggy hair, and his actions led to such an adorable puppy aura. It made High want to grab him and cuddle him to his body tightly to protect him, while the desperate clinginess and reactive body made him want to poke and prod him just to see what would become of it.
‘Is this what draws Saint to Heart? If so, I get it now.’
High realized having Mark flat against him like this, that the cuddling wasn’t the only thing his mind was thinking and he knew he had to do something to change the atmosphere so he gently pushed the boy away. Mark’s remaining long-sleeved shirt fell back down across his body just as High was getting the smallest glimpse of something on his left side.
High cleared his throat and started unbuckling Mark’s zipper as if nothing had just stirred inside him. Mark didn’t move. He was trembling, though, his body shaking a little.
“Touch me again.” The words were said, softly, his voice shaking as a helpless mew of desire threaded through the desperate words and attacked High’s heart.
High looked up, startled by the guy’s words. He gulped and licked his lips. He was about to ask him to repeat what he said.
When the kid stepped closer. His breathing was heavy and he stared at him with those same big puppy eyes. But they were filled with a huge desire there that High looked back in surprise.
He reached out and grabbed High’s hand, “Touch me!” His voice sounded strangled….
“Please.”
(clears throat). Now I’m going to camp right here with my popcorn and drink while watching for my favorite ships ( high and Mark) to keep me entertained.
Thanks for the update.
