Jason Night Hurst
I woke up late, and jumped out of the uncomfortable motel bed. I had found myself in Boston two days ago, alone and with minimal funds. In a couple days I'd either have to go without food or without shelter. And honestly I was not ready to go without either. I needed to find a place to stay, and soon. How I was going to do that? No idea. I changed into yesterdays clothes and walked out of the room, pushing open the heavy metal door that separated me and the elements for now. I walked down the crowded streets finding myself in front of a coffee shop.
"What harm can it do." I mumbled to myself and walked in and ordered a small black coffee. The boy at the counter smiled at me and handed me the small styrofoam cup. I looked at his name tag, Alex, it read. He was short, well to me, probably about 5'10", his shaggy auburn hair slightly falling in his face. I almost immediately put on a flirtatious smile.
"Hello Alex, I'm Jason." I smirked as his face turned bright red. "How are you today?"
"Oh, um, I'm okay thanks for asking. And yourself?" He said, his voice shaking slightly.
"I'm doing quite well now, since I just met a very handsome man." I sent my best smile at him, and you could see him almost melt. I was about to say something else, when a group of kids around my age came in. There were two guys and two girls, the boys were gorgeous, as were the girls, but I wasn't really interested. The girl with the long brown hair and full cheeks and lips was talking to the taller of the two boys. They were holding hands, but they didn't touch other than that. The other girl with the pixie cut looked closed off and seemed like she didn't want to be here at all, but the other boy was doing his best to console her, but she seemed to just push him off despite his efforts. Alex smiled when they came in and waved, the long haired girl waved back.
"Hey guys! Belle, I see you finally got Kenny out of the apartment?" He asked, a slight sadness to his voice. The girl with the long hair, whom I just learned was named Belle, immediately glared at him, motioning for him to stop. I looked at the sad girl, who I figured was Kenny, to find a couple tears rolling down her face before she stalked off. Belle sighed.
"Dylan," she remarked, "go sit with her." His eyes were tired and longing. You could tell he hadn't slept in a while, and he was also affected by whatever was affecting the Kenny girl. Or rather she was affecting him. He quickly walked over to the crying girl, just to have her turn away.
"Why is she acting like that?" Alex asked confused.
"She's been weird ever since Indi left." The tall boy stated. Who is Indi?
"Oliver! She hasn't been weird, she just doesn't handle change well." Belle scolded. "Anyways, who is this?" She motioned to me.
"Oh! This is Jason, I don't know much about him since I just met him a couple minutes ago. I do know however, he's gay, and he's really good at flirting." Alex said proud of his deduction skills.
"True and true!" I laughed.
"So, Jason, I've never seen you around here?" Oliver questioned.
"Yeah, I'm from Texas, but I've been traveling around a lot lately, trying to find my place. I quite like it here though, but I need to find a place." I said, my voice trailing off at the end. Belle looked at me interested when her eyes lit up.
"Hey! You know, we're, as in Kennedy and I, and looking for a new roommate, I mean, we can cover your rent until you get a job and then you can just pay it back, we're already paying the whole thing now, and we'd love to have you!" She said genuinely. I pondered the offer for a moment, but not long because I knew I needed a place to stay, or I'd be out on the streets, and what she was offering was very generous.
"Of course, you guys seem really cool, I'd love to come live with you." I said smiling.
"Cool, we'll move you in later." She said.
"Hey can I talk to you real quick?" I asked her quietly. She nodded and we went to the side of the shop. "I wanted to ask what Kennedy's deal was, just so I know not to mention it or say something insensitive."
"Yeah, I get that. A couple weeks ago she almost got raped, and once she was almost not as traumatised, our last roommate who was our best friend, applied to art school behind our backs, and got in and so we told her to leave. And Kenny doesn't deal well with change, so the whole thing has been hard on her, and on Dylan. He's in love with her and she's in love with him, but its a long story why she won't date him. And honestly I think the only reason I'm not the same way right now is because of Oliver. He's helped a lot." She looked lovingly over at the lanky but fit boy standing talking to Alex.
"You guys really seem to be in love." I said smiling at her, but she looked shocked.
"Oh no no, we're just friends!" She said defensively. I raised my eyebrow at her.
"Oh, come on, you aren't fooling me here Belle. I see the way you look at him."
"You barely know me Jason."
"And yet you already asked me to move in." I retorted. She scoffed.
"So, you and Alex?" She asked.
"Ah, you saw that. Yeah he's really cute. I wouldn't mind getting into his pants." He eyed widened as she started doubling over laughing.
"He's not gay." She stated, still laughing.
"I doubt that. You should've seen him blushing. I had him melting." She pondered for a moment before responding.
"Well, I guess he's never said he wasn't." She shrugged.
"Exactly. So when can I move in?"
A/N- SO HERE IS THE NEW CHARACTER!!! I HOPE YOU LIKE HIM!!! He's based off my friend josh_m1372 so he will be sticking around and I think he's going to be a great addition to the gang :)
Love you eggs!
