Next part of High School Blues.

Greg peeled into a major U-turn, having missed his exit. Nick screamed in the helmet again, knowing his heart was going faster than ever. Greg smirked and went onto the interstate.

"Where are we going?" Nick yelled through the helmet.

"You'll see in a half hour." Greg said, as he sped up a little more.

Nick nodded, and then his grip tightened when Greg went inbetween two cars to get infront of the one on the right.

"Could you stop showing off?" Nick asked, as Greg snorted.

"I'm not showing off, I do this with everyone!" Greg yelled back to him, as Nick shook his head.

"Liar!"

"You know it." Greg said, as Nick laughed.

Thirty minutes later, Greg slowed down and turned onto an offtrack road. The sound of the motorcycle getting lower than Nick had ever heard it. They stopped at a lake that had a huge Weeping Willow next to it.

"What are we doing here?" Nick asked, as Greg smirked.

"Relaxing." Greg said, as Nick tilted his head.

"But why take so much time to get to here? There's a lake about ten minutes from the school."

"Because not a lot of people know about this lake. It's been secluded for years." Greg explained as he sat on a big wooden log infront of the Willow.

Nick nodded and sat next to him on the log, leaning back on the Willow.

Greg looked over the lake, then glanced a look at Nick. Nick looked very happy sitting there, and Greg didn't understand why. Yesterday when he asked for him to hang out, he jumped at the chance. That didn't mean he liked him to..right?

Nick looked at Greg, who looked straight ahead quickly. Nick smiled at Greg and sat up straight.

"So do you take Solstice here?" Nick asked, as Greg nodded.

"Yeah, we come here when we want to get away from everything. She usually swims around for about an hour and I sit here and watch her. This is also a really good place to come to if you're running from the police." Greg said, as Nick looked at him.

"Have you ever run from the police?" Nick asked, as Greg smirked.

"Yeah. Only a few times though, and that's only because it was Todd, David, and Archie's fault." Greg said, as Nick laughed.

"Yeah, of course it was."

"Alright a few times it was me." Greg said, as Nick grinned.

"You know you aren't so hardcore."

"Shh, only you and Solstice know my secret identity." Greg said, as Nick smiled.

"Well thank you for telling me that." Nick said, as Greg looked at him.

"I just don't understand why you're wasting your time on me."

"Because I'm a good person, and I know you are too." Nick said, as Greg snorted.

"Given the right amount of time and patience. I mean, I could be nice, but I'd still dress like this, and do all my hardcore shit." Greg said, as Nick laughed.

"That would be a funny sight." Nick said, as he and Greg started laughing together.

Greg stopped and looked down at his watch. What the..how the hell did two hours pass by like that.

"Well let's get going." Greg said, standing up, as Nick followed him back to the bike.

Greg revved the bike once, then twice to show off for Nick. Nick raised a brow and smiled at Greg, before putting the helmet on, and getting on behind him.

Greg put on his sunglasses before heading down the road, and peeling onto the interstate. Nick tightened his grip on instinct now, and put his head on Greg's shoulder, before pushing closer to Greg. What Nick couldn't see was that Greg was blushing madly at the gesture.

'Just drive, Just drive, don't think about it, just drive.' Greg thought desperately, as he passed another car, 'Stupid fucking hormones.'

Thirty minutes later they found themselves stopping at Taco Bell.

"You want anything?" Greg asked, as he went through the Drive through.

"Um..just a Nacho Bell Grande." Nick said, as Greg turned his head.

"Anything to drink?" Greg asked, as Nick gave a confused look.

"Where would we put it?" Nick asked.

"We could share one, and you could hold it while your arms are around me." Greg said, as Nick nodded.

"A coke then." Nick said, as Greg grinned.

Greg ordered their food, and paid for it as fast as he could.

"Ready?"

"Yeah." Nick said, as Greg took off at a decent speed.

"What no speeding this time?" Nick teased, as Greg mock glared at him.

"I don't want to drop the food." Greg said, as they stopped at a park.

"Oh so you care about the food being dropped, but not humans." Nick said, as Greg smirked.

"Well I can't drop you now can I." Greg said, as he smirked at Nick, kissing his lips lightly.

Nick stayed on the bike shocked for a minute, before following Greg to a spot.

"Why'd you do that?" Nick asked, as Greg's smirk widened.

"Because I felt like it." Greg said, as Nick bit his lip.

"Well how about if I feel like doing this." Nick said, lunging at him.

Nick tackled Greg, and kissed him harshly. Greg moaned into the kiss, before opening his mouth, tracing his tongue lightly on Nick's lips, in a silent question for entrance. It was granted when Nick opened his mouth. They both battled for dominance, as Greg rolled them over, biting Nick's lip lightly before coming up for air.

"I think I gave you a decent answer." Greg panted, a little out of breath.

Nick nodded, slightly flushed as he got his breathing under control. Greg rolled off of Nick, smirking at him.
"So..nacho?" Greg asked, holding one out to Nick, who smiled.

"Sure." Nick said, eating the nacho from Greg's hand.

Greg smirked at Nick, before leaning against the tree again. Nick blushing once more.

'The rest of the day should be very interesting.' Greg thought.

***

Greg stopped infront of the Rave, a popular over twenty-one club. Greg smirked at Nick before getting off the bike.

"Uh..Greg..we're aren't twenty-one." Nick said, as Greg laughed.

"Don't worry about that." Greg said, as he waved at the bouncer.

"Sanders, how are you doing?" the guy asked, as Greg smirked.

"Running from the law, how about you Jim?" Greg said, as Jim laughed.

"Making sure jerks like them don't get in." He said pointing to some girls and boys over in the corner.

"Oh, what'd they do?" Greg asked.

"They pissed me off. They tried to pay me off to get in." Jim said, as Greg hissed low.

"Ah, so you got newbies. Nice." Greg said, as Jim opened the door for Greg.

"Have a few drinks on me, okay Greg." Jim said, as Greg nodded, grabbing Nick's hand and pulling him in.

"Drinks...like alcohol?" Nick said, slightly shocked that they got in.

"Yeah. That was Jim Brass, he's a family friend. The bartender over there is Romulus Wolfe, he's a good friend of mine. I saved his ass a few years back." Greg said, as they went over to the bar.

"Hey Rom." Greg said, as Romulus turned.

"Greg, what's up?" Romulus asked, eyeing Nick.

"This and that...more this than that though." Greg said, grinning at Nick.

"So what'll it be tonight?" Romulus asked.

"Virgin Pina-Colada, for the both of us." Greg said, as Romulus' eyes rose.

"Being the designated driver tonight Greggo?" Romulus said, as he started making the drinks.

"More or less." Greg said, as Romulus put the drinks down.

"These are on the house then. Nice to see you being responsible Greg." Romulus said, as he went to another customer.
"Um..thanks." Nick said, taking a gulp, then started coughing.

Greg laughed lightly, as Nick looked at him.

"It still tastes strong." Nick said, as Greg laughed.

"It's supposed to make you think you're getting the same, but you aren't...well at least the way Rom makes them." Greg said, as Nick nodded.

"So ready to dance?" Greg asked, as Nick's eyes widened.

"Greg! I don't know how." Nick squeaked, as Greg laughed.

"I'll..teach you then." Greg said, as he took Nick's hand and led him onto the floor.

Greg wrapped an arm around Nick's waist, pulling him closer.

"Nick put an arm on my neck, not both but one." Greg said, as Nick followed the directions.

"Ready?" Greg asked, as Nick nodded. Nick then got ready to list steps into his mind.

Greg smirked as he grinded up against Nick, who moaned deeply. Greg's smirk widened before kissing Nick heatedly, making Nick moan into his mouth, as Greg kept grinding.

"You know, you can grind back." Greg said, as Nick grinded back against Greg harder.

Greg moaned loudly, as he nipped the side of Nick's neck, before bringing his other hand to massage Nick's hips. Nick dropped his head onto Greg's shoulder, whimpering softly. Greg dragged his teeth on Nick's neck, making Nick's legs feel weak. Greg kept him upright however, his hand on the small of his back keeping him upright.

Nick grinded back up against Greg, smirking wickedly.

"You're cheating..you're doing all these things to me...and I haven't done anything for you..." Nick said, as Greg kissed him harshly.

"Who said you weren't doing anything for me?" Greg said, as Nick groaned when Greg's hand went lower.

"Uh..." Nick said, Greg smirking at the boy, before someone tapped his shoulder.

Greg turned to see Archie and David.

'Stupid fuckers.' Greg thought darkly.

"What are you two doing here?"

"Looking for you. Todd is looking for the last payment." David said, as Greg pulled out a brown envelope, handing it over.

"It's all there, now get lost." Greg growled, holding Nick up, who was panting harshly.

"Aww are you going to fuck Nick Stokes?" Archie asked, as Greg swatted at him.

"No you stupid psychotic fucktards." Greg snarled at them, as their eyes widened.

"Later!" They both said, disappearing from sight.

Nick grabbed onto Greg pulling him into another harsh, passionate kiss.

Greg growled into the kiss, before pushing Nick up against the wall. Nick grinded up against Greg, who moaned. Greg attacked Nick's neck again, both of their hormones sky-rocketing.

'I've got to stop..but it feels so fucking good.' Greg thought as Nick's thoughts mirrowed Greg's.

Nick pushed Greg back a little, both out of breath.

"Sorry, that was a bit to much at once." Nick said, as he gasped harshly.

Greg nodded, before grinning at Nick. Nick caught his eye, smiling slightly.

"I wouldn't mind doing this again." Greg said, as Nick nodded.

"Me neither." Nick said, as Greg kissed his lips lightly.

"So what does this lead us?" Greg asked, as Nick blinked for a few minutes.

"What do you want it to lead us?" Nick asked, as Greg grinned.

"I think I'd like to take you out more often, maybe have a relationship." Greg said, as Nick smiled back.

"Like boyfriends?" Nick asked, as Greg nodded, "I think I'd like that a lot."

Greg smirked, kissing Nick's already bruised lips.

***

Greg led Nick out of the club, looking at his watch.

"When's your curfew?" Greg asked Nick.

"If I call her I can stay out later." Nick said, as Greg nodded.

"Let's find us a payphone then." Greg said, as Nick nodded.

"What time is it?" Nick asked.

"Let's just say we spent about four hours in there." Greg said, as he spotted a phone.

Nick put in the 35 cents to make the call, waiting for his mom to answer.

"Hey Mom. It's that late already?" Nick asked, looking at Greg, "I'm going to stay out a bit longer. Alright? Okay thanks Mom. Bye." Nick hung up looking at Greg.

"Well?"

"Why didn't you tell me it was midnight?" Nick asked, as Greg shrugged.

"I dunno. So can you stay out?"

"Yeah, my mom's cool with me staying out for about another hour." Nick said, adding, "I haven't really been a social butterfly with my friends lately."

Greg grinned before pushing Nick up against the wall, kissing him passionately.

"You are so horny." Nick said, pushing Greg away a bit.

"You bet I am. Who wouldn't be? You are very fucking sexy." Greg said, biting Nick's early softly.

"Uh..we shouldn't do anything in public." Nick said, as Greg grinned.

"Oh really?"

"I'm not suggesting that you pervert." Nick said, laughing at Greg's disappointed look.

"Damn." Greg said, mock sad, as Nick laughed.

"Where to next, oh humble boyfriend?" Nick said, bowing to Greg.

Greg smirked, before getting on his bike.

"I say we go somewhere secluded." Greg said, before Nick got on.

"Helmet." Greg said, as Nick shook his head.

"Not right now." Nick said, as Greg smiled at him. He revved up the bike before taking off down the street.

Nick put his head on Greg's shoulder, pulling closer. He pushed into Greg a little, making the younger man lose control momentarily.

"No doing that on the bike...well...maybe if it's parked." Greg said to Nick, as he pulled into a rundown park.

Nick smiled as they stopped, before getting off with Greg.

"So what's the story with this place?"

"To many drug deals went down here. They shut it down, and the drug dealers found another place." Greg said, as Nick grinned.

Nick sat down under a tree, looking up at the sky. It was clear so you could see a lot of stars. Greg smirked before straddling Nick, who looked shocked.

"I thought I said no." Nick said, as Greg grinned.

"I'm evil, I'll find a loophole." Greg said, as he attacked Nick's neck for the second time that night.

Nick groaned, as Greg forced him to lay down. Nick tried to roll them over, but Greg was a little stronger than him. Greg then put one hand on Nick's hip, massaging in again, the other hand going under Nick's shirt.

Nick moaned loudly, as Greg came up, smirking at Nick.

"You truly are evil." Nick said, as Greg's smirk widened.

"And you have a hickey." Greg said, as Nick's eyes widened.

"That's not fair." Nick whined, as Greg bit down into his neck harshly.

Nick gasped at the pain, then groaned when Greg licked it apologetically.

"Well life's not fair." Greg said, as Nick rolled them over.

Nick smirked at Greg.

"Now see..that's not fa--" Greg stopped when Nick licked the outside of Greg's ear, making the younger one moan.

Nick smirked before kissing down Greg's jawline to his neck, biting into the piece of flesh hard.

Greg groaned at the pain, and then whimpered when Nick licked it.

"Not fun is it?" Nick asked, as Greg shook his head.

Nick smirked at Greg, who smirked back.

"I'm rubbing off on you." Greg said, as Nick smiled.

"Yeah..you really are." Nick said, as Greg rolled them over again, grinding into Nick, who bucked into Greg.

"F-Fuck." Nick said, as Greg's eyes widened.

"I really have rubbed off on you." Greg said, proud of himself, as he repeated the action.

"Y-You are going to be sorry about this." Nick said, as he thrust up into Greg, who shuddered.

"Oh yeah?" Greg said, as Nick nodded.

Nick tried to roll them over again, but Greg stopped the attempt. Greg bent down and kissed Nick softly. Nick smiled into the kiss, as Greg licked Nick's lip. Nick opened his mouth letting the younger man into his mouth. They fought for dominance, Nick finally rolling them over.

"Oh shit." Greg said, as Nick tilted his head.

"What?" Nick asked, as Greg sat up.

Greg showed Nick his watch, Nick's eyes widening.

"I've got to get home." Nick said, as he and Greg jumped up.

"C'mon." Greg said, as he jumped on his bike. Nick followed shortly, as Greg sped off towards Nick's house.

They arrived ten minutes later, Nick smiling at Greg.

"Thanks. Today was really awesome." Nick said, as he kissed Greg lightly.

"No problem, I'll see you tomorrow?" Greg asked, as Nick nodded.

"Definitely." Nick said, as Greg grinned.

"I've got to go before Solstice gets pissed." Greg said, as he kissed Nick once last time before speeding off.

Nick walked inside and saw Warrick and his mom.

"War...Mom...what's up?" Nick asked, as Warrick glared at him.

His mom was a different story, she looked happier than ever.

"Oh Nick, why didn't you tell me Greg was your boyfriend." She said, as Nick's eyes widened.

"Umm..because it just happened tonight." Nick said, stupidly.

"I'm so happy. Although..we might need to break this to your father lightly." She said, as Nick grinned at her.

She left the room, saying she needed to sleep.

"War?" Nick asked, as Warrick glared a little more.

"You ditched us, so you could spend the day with Sanders. Then you come home at one thirty in the morning." Warrick said, as Nick glared back.

"Why the hell are you here anyways?"

"To tell you that me and Catherine got together." Warrick said, as Nick smiled.

"That's great." Nick said, as Warrick frowned.

"Yeah and then I find out my best friend likes guys. What a fantastic day."

"You aren't mad are you?"

"No..just upset that you didn't tell me you were gay."

"Well I think I'm Bi, not gay. I mean...Greg's the only guy I've ever really liked." Nick said, as Warrick nodded.

"Well how about you hang out with us tomorrow and you can tell the group." Warrick suggested as Nick shook his head, "Nick, they won't care."

"It's not that. I already made plans with Greg." Nick said, as Warrick laughed.

"Then how about Monday after school?" Warrick asked, as Nick laughed too.

"Alright, I'll see you on Monday then." Nick said, as the two hugged, before Warrick left.

'What a busy fucking day...he really is rubbing off on me...' Nick thought, smiling. He then wandered into the bathroom, before going to bed.

***

Nick woke up the next day to something banging on the door. Nick muttered, going down the stairs and opening the door.

"Hey lover bo—oh my god!" Greg said, laughing his ass off.

"Greg...what?" Nick asked confused, as Greg knelt down and pointed.

Nick looked down to see he was only wearing boxers.

"OH CRAP!" Nick yelled, running up the stairs, leaving Greg laughing in the doorway.

Nick came down a few minutes later, seeing Greg had calmed down. Nick smiled at Greg before Greg came over hugging the other boy.

"You ready to go?" Greg asked, as Nick nodded.

"Yep." Nick said, as he wrote his mom a note, before walking out with Greg.

Nick got onto the bike first, Greg getting on infront of him.

"Where's the helmet?" Nick asked, as Greg snorted.

"Left it at home." Greg said, as he revved the bike, taking off down the road.

Nick snuggled up next to Greg, who smiled, turning down an alley. They screeched to a stop when someone got infront of them.

"What the..." Nick started, as Greg came to a stop.

"Todd? What the hell are you doing here?" Greg asked, as Todd came over.

"So you really are fucking him." Todd said, as he went to touch Nick. Greg smacked his hand away.

"Back off." Greg sneered as Todd smirked.

"Protective Greg. That's a new one..the only other person you really protect is Solstice. Where is she?" Todd asked, as Greg smirked.

"At her friends house. I just dropped her off at their gates, and saw her go inside with Nayarat." Greg said, as Todd glared, "You can't scare me."

Todd glared.

"You can't protect both of them." Todd said, as Greg glared right back.

"I can fucking try you fucker." Greg said, punching Todd, before speeding off.

Nick was so confused when they stopped infront of a house with a picket fence.

"What are we doing here? And what the hell is up with Todd threatening you?" Nick asked, as Greg knocked on the door.

A girl with blood red hair opened the door.

"Greg what's wrong?" the girl asked.

"Is Solstice here?" Greg asked.

"You know she is. Why? Is something wrong?" the girl asked.

"Nayarat, can you go get her for me." He asked, as she nodded.

She came back with Solstice a minute later.

"What's wrong Greg?" Solstice asked, as Greg picked her up.

"Greg? You're scaring me." Solstice said, as Greg hugged her.

"I want you to stay with Nayarat for a couple of days. Don't get out of their sight okay." Greg said, as Solstice tilted her head.

"Is it dad?"

"No. It's Todd this time." Greg said, as Solstice nodded.

"Alright Greg." Solstice said, hugging her brother.

Nayarat frowned at Greg.

"Are you going to visit me?" Solstice asked, as Greg nodded.

"Every day, I promise." Greg said, as Solstice held out her hand.

"Swear." Solstice said, as Greg did a handshake with her.

"I swear." Greg said, kissing her cheek.

Nayarat and Solstice went back inside, as he went back to his bike.

"Greg..what's going on?"

"Todd was over at my old man's house last night, and let's just say I beat the shit out of him, because he was being an ass." Greg said, getting on the bike, but not starting it.

"Why?"

"Because he saw us together. Okay Nick, if you aren't around me, stay with your friends and your family. He won't attack you if you're with other people." Greg said.

"What about you?"

"David and Archie have my back, they always have, and always will. They hate Todd as much as I do." Greg said, as he started the motorcycle, revving it.

Nick jumped on behind Greg, not really feeling like going on a date anymore.

***

Greg stopped when they reached the secluded lake. He smiled at Nick before getting off.

"C'mon." Greg said, taking Nick's hand, pulling him slowly off the bike, "Aren't you ever going to get used to the speed?"

Nick gave him a look.

"Okay and the wheelies." Greg said, smiling gently.

"Yea-No." Nick said, as Greg pulled him close. Nick smiled to himself, as Greg hugged him tightly.

Nick pulled away and dragged Greg to the tree. He stripped down to his boxers, watching Greg's eyes widen.

"You still ain't getting any you perv." Nick said, diving into the water.

Greg's mouth dropped.

'That dirty little tease.' Greg though, laughing to himself.

"C'mon G, the waters great!" Nick yelled, as Greg smiled.

"Alright already." Greg said, stripping his own clothes off, before jumping into the lake.

When he surfaced, he saw Nick floating on the water. Greg snuck up from behind him, and dunked him.

When Nick came back up, Greg was smirking. He was very proud of doing that.

Nick lunged at him to dunk him, but Greg dodged, before pushing him against the shore wall.

Greg smirked at Nick, who mock glared.

"What is with you and walls? Do you have some kind of understanding?" Nick asked, as Greg smiled.

"Sort of." Greg said, as he kissed Nick passionately.

Nick moaned into the kiss, when Greg swam closer pratically nailing his body to the shore wall. Greg broke the kiss, smirking at the older boy. Nick smiled at him before grinding up against Greg, who groaned. Nick smirked at him, as Greg grinded back against him.

"Two can play this game." Greg breathed, as Nick shook his head.

"You'll lose." Nick said, as Greg snorted.

"Yeah right." Greg said, nipping a sensitive spot on Nick's neck, making him shudder.

"Uh.." Nick said, as Greg smirked at him. He attacked the other side of Nick's neck, grinding up against Nick in a double attack. Nick moaned deeply before pulling Greg into a kiss.

Greg pulled away sharply, hearing a twig snap.

"Greg, what's wrong?" Nick asked, as Greg got out of the lake.

"Stay here." Greg said, as he went to his pants, pulling out a butterfly knife.

Greg went up against the tree, opening the knife with a flick of the wrist. He saw Nick dunk low on the wall, but he could still see. Greg put a finger to his mouth, and Nick nodded. Greg twirled his knife before hearing another twig snap. LEFT! Greg jumped over to the left side, jumping into the open. He saw a flash of platinum blonde hair, before motioning for Nick to get out of the lake.

"Who is it?" Nick asked, as the two put their clothes on.

"I think it might be Todd, because the only other blonde I know is Solstice, and she's at Nayarat's." Greg said, as he pulled Nick over to his bike. Greg gave it a check over to see if it was damaged, pleased to see that it wasn't.

"So now what do we do?" Nick asked, slightly scared. He looked all around, trying to find the blonde hair.

"We go somewhere else." Greg said, as he started the bike, revving it a few times. Nick got on behind Greg, gripping him tightly.

Greg sped off as the blonde man came out infront of them. Greg sped up making the man jump to the side. Greg peeled out of the road onto the interstate, almost hitting a car. Nick let out a short scream, as Greg weaved in and out between cars.

Thirty minutes later they were at a big mansion with a gate.

"Who lives here?" Nick asked, as Greg pressed the button.

"Who the fuck goes there?" a voice said over the intercom.

"It's the fuck Greg." Greg answered, smirking.

"Oh shit, hold on Greg." The voice said, as the gate opened. Greg pulled Nick inside the gates, then went and got his bike, hiding it in the bushes, then watched as the gates closed.

"C'mon." Greg said, as they ran to the door. Seeing Bobby standing at the door, smiling at them.

"Hey Bobby! Can we stay here for a while?" Greg asked, as Bobby tilted his head.

"What happened?" Bobby asked, before nodding his head.

"Todd's gone fucking nuts." Greg said, as they all went inside.

"How so?" Bobby asked, as Greg shook his head.

"Did Archie and David tell you what happened last night?" Greg asked, as Bobby nodded.

"Yeah they came by afterwards, and told me." Bobby said, as Greg nodded.

"Bob...he threatened Nick..and Solstice." Greg said, as Bobby's eyes widened.

"No. Why did he threaten Solstice? Nick I can understand, but Solstice!" Bobby said, adding, "She's an innocent in all of this. He knows not to threaten the innocent ones in arguments."

"Like I said, he's gone fucking nuts." Greg said, adding, "And Nick's innocent in all of this too you know."

Bobby nodded.

"Gr-Fuck I knew this was going to get out of control. As soon as you saw Nick, I knew that shit was going to happen." Bobby said.

"I did too Bobby. But you and I both know he won't attack if they're with another person." Greg said, as Bobby nodded.

"What about Solstice?" Bobby asked, as Greg sighed.

"She's staying with Nayarat for a few days, until I can get this whole thing resolved." Greg said, as Bobby leaned up against the wall.

"And how are you going to resolve it?" Bobby asked, as Greg shrugged.

"I don't know." Greg said simply.

"So..why come here? I would think you'd go to David or Archie's." Bobby said, as Greg snorted.

"As much as I love those two knuckleheads, if Todd came they couldn't protect me. You can, you have security and a gate. The works, and besides that Todd doesn't intimidate you or me. He intimidates them, and he knows he can." Greg explained, then looked at Nick.

"Look I have a plan, but I'm not sure if it's going to work or not. So I need to be sure that Nick is going to be okay...and Solstice. I know Solstice is, because like you said, he can't harm innocent people because of this. And I know Nick will be safe with you." Greg said, as Bobby nodded.

"You know it. So when are you going to leave for the plan?" Bobby asked, tilting his head.

"Now." Greg said, as Nick shook his head.

"I'm not cool with this. Hello, you could've asked me what I thought about it." Nick said, as Greg smiled.

"Excuse us for a minute." Greg said, pulling Nick into the Living Room.

"I know you don't like it, that's why I didn't tell you. But see here's the thing, I can lead him away from here, and probally fight him. I might get my ass kicked, but I think that will be punishment enough for what I did last night." Greg said, as Nick still shook his head.

"You aren't going without me." Nick said, as Greg smirked.

"You can't stop me." Greg said, as Nick nodded.

"I know that, but just..don't go. It's better to be a coward and hide, than to play hero and get your ass killed." Nick said, as Greg laughed.

"I'm not playing hero. I'm playing negotiator." Greg said, as Nick frowned.

"When do you think you'll be back?" Nick asked.

"If I have David and Archie as backup, maybe an hour, hour and a half tops." Greg said, as Nick bit his lip.

"Take David, Bobby, and Archie with you, and I'll call Warrick..tell him and the guys to come get me. They won't let anything happen to me." Nick said, as Greg nodded.

"Okay then." Greg said, as they went back out and saw Bobby get off the phone.

"David and Archie are on their way." Bobby said, as Greg nodded.

"May I use your phone?" Nick asked, as Bobby nodded.

When Nick got off the phone with Warrick, the trio went to the gate. Greg grabbed his bike, sitting on it with Nick, as Bobby leant up against the gate.

Warrick came by a few minutes later with the crue in the car.

"Hey Nicky!" they all chorused, a little to cheerful.

Nick smiled and got off the bike, hugging Greg, kissing him lightly.

"Come pick me up when you're done. I'll be at Warrick's." Nick said, as Greg smiled and nodded.

Nick got into Warrick's car, as they drove off.

"You're turning into a softie." Bobby said, as Archie and David walked up.

"No I'm not, I just grew a heart." Greg said, revving his bike.

***

Nick clicked his tongue a few times before looking at Warrick.

"War, follow Greg." Nick said, as Warrick gave him a look.

"What..why?" Warrick asked, as Nick sat up.

"Because he's probally about to get his ass kicked." Nick said, as the others gasped.

"You...just said...that." Warrick said, as Nick snorted.

"That and a lot of other fucking things." Nick said, laughing at his friends shocked looks.

"You hang out with him for a day, and you have a potty mouth." Grissom said, as Nick grinned.

"Look, can we just follow him...please." Nick asked, as Warrick made a U-turn.

"Alright Nicky." Warrick said, as the others looked confused.

"Why are we following him?" Catherine asked.

"Because.." Nick said, cutting off.

Warrick smiled at Nick, who took a deep breath.

"Because Greg is my new boyfriend." Nick said, looking forward.

"Huh?" Three voices chorused.

"You heard him." Warrick said, smiling in the rearview mirror.

"Wait..Nick..you're gay?" Sara said, sounding disappointed.

"Bi." Nick said, as Warrick slowed down.

"Oh..that's cool Nick. We support you." Catherine said, as she and Grissom smiled. Sara nodded her head, smiling at Nick also.

"Thanks guys." Nick said, as Warrick turned sharply sending Grissom and Nick into the door.

"What the hell Warrick!" Nick yelled, as he suddenly stopped.

"Your boy is right there." Warrick said, as he pointed to Greg getting off his bike, Bobby and the rest of the boys getting out of the car.

Greg told them something that they couldn't hear, and went into an alley. Nick unbuckled himself, attempting to get out of the car.

"Where are you going?" Warrick asked, holding his arm.

"I'm going to go help." Nick said, as a bang caught their attention. Everyone jumped and saw Archie and David at the hood of Warrick's car.

"Nick, what the fuck are you doing here?" Bobby asked, coming over to Nick's side.

"I want to help Greg." Nick said, getting out of the car. Warrick turned the car off, as the others got out too.

"You aren't supposed to be here. Didn't you hear him at all." Bobby said, as Nick brushed him off, walking towards the alley.

"I don't care. I'm going to help him." Nick said, as he reached the alley. He saw Greg being thrown up against the wall, before being slammed into the ground. Greg cried out in pain, as Todd stomped on his back. His leather pants were ripped a little, and so was his black hoodie. Warrick and Bobby came up from behind him.

"TODD!" Bobby yelled, running at the blonde boy, tackling him away from Greg.

Nick ran over to Greg, who moaned a little.

"Fucker...shit that hurt..ow..I've gotta find a new hobby." Greg said, as Nick turned him over.

"Greg are you okay?" Nick asked, as Greg looked at him.

"You aren't supposed to be here." Greg said, as Nick snorted.

"I don't listen to my parents, what makes you think I'll listen to you." Nick said, as Greg smiled, before standing up.

They heard a yelp as Bobby was overpowered.

"You stay with Warrick and the others." Greg said, as Nick tilted his head.

"Why aren't David and Archie helping?"

"Because if they fight one more time they get grounded, and they get no allowance for a few weeks." Greg said, as Todd came back over.

"This is weakest fight you've ever had Greg." Todd said, as he smirked at Nick, "And lover boy came."

Greg growled standing infront of him.

"You can fuck off Todd." Greg said, as he pushed Nick back over to the others.

Todd laughed and Greg smirked evilly, before Todd grabbed his arms. Greg rose a brow before headbutting Todd.

Nick watched the exchanging of blows and hissed as Greg's head connected with Todd's.

Greg jerked away from Todd's arms, before dodging a flying fist. Greg kicked the back of Todd's knee, making him fall on his knees, before Greg kicked him in the middle of his back.

Todd screamed out in pain, before Greg smirked, squatting down. He took of his butterfly knife, flicking it open with a flick of his wrist, then held it to Todd's throat, who swallowed heavily. Greg lightly trailed the blade on his throat, nicking it a little. Todd gasped a little at the slight pain.

"Don't fuck with me and mine Todd. Now you know that I can kick your ass, and if possible kill you. If you come near my sister, Nick, or anyone of our friends, I will kill you. That's not a threat, it's a promise." Greg snarled, as he kneed Todd in the face.

Greg stood up and turned. He smiled at Nick, who smiled back. He walked out of the alley, his smile turning into a smirk.

"So should I say 'thank you'?" Nick asked, as Greg snorted.

"No." Greg said, pulling Nick into a kiss.

"Um hello, you have people around." Sara said, as the two broke apart laughing nervously.

"Sorry." Nick said, smiling at his friends.

"So..." Catherine said, as Bobby came out, spitting out some blood.

"That fucker punched me." Bobby muttered, as Greg laughed.

"Well you did kinda tackle him." Greg said, as Bobby mock glared Greg.

"Well..I need to go tell Solstice." Greg said, after a few minutes.

Nick smiled at Greg, then waved at his friends.

"I'm coming with you." Nick said, as Greg laughed.

"I already knew that." Greg said, grinning wickedly.

Greg straddled his bike, revving it before Nick got on.

"Talk to you guys tomorrow!" Nick yelled, putting his arms around Greg's waist tightly.

Greg smirked at his friends, speeding off down the street.

***

Greg stopped infront of Nayarat's house, before going to knock on the door.

As soon as his knuckles hit the door, it flung open and a blur of blonde pounced him.

"WHAT THE FUCK!" Greg yelled, as he hit the ground.

"Are you okay? Why are your clothes ripped? Are you hurt? Oh my god, did you kill him? Are you wounded? Do you need to go to the hospital? TALK DAMNIT!" Solstice babbled, as Greg hugged her.

"Yes, because he was rough, No, No, No, No." Greg said, answering each question, as Solstice glared, slapping his arm.

"You scared the shit out of me." Solstice pouted.

"How do you know I fought him?" Greg asked, as Solstice pointed to the phone.

"Bobby called me." Solstice said, as she smacked Greg upside the head.

"Did tweedle fuck and tweedle fucker help you at ALL?" Solstice asked, as Greg shook his head.

"THOSE ASSHOLES!" Solstice screamed, as Nayarat hugged her friend.

"It's okay, Sols." Greg said, as Solstice glared.

"NO IT'S NOT! I'M SICK OF ALL OF THIS BULLSHIT! IF YOU AREN'T RACING, YOU'RE STEALING, IF YOU AREN'T STEALING THEN YOU'RE GOD KNOWS WHERE WITH GOD KNOWS WHO! AND IT SCARES THE SHIT OUT OF ME!" Solstice screamed, as she took a deep breath.

Greg hugged Solstice tightly.

"Sols, you know I'm careful." Greg said, as Solstice nodded in his shoulder.

"You still scared the shit out of me you asshole." Solstice said, as Greg looked at Nayarat.

"She's around you for two days, and she's cussing up a storm. And they say I have a dirty mouth." Greg said, as Solstice glared at him.

"Oh fuck off." Solstice said, wiggling out of Greg's grasp.

"No thanks. Incest is not best, I will not put my sister to the test." Greg said, as Solstice laughed.

"Oh shut up you." Solstice said, as Greg smiled.

"I'm going to pick you up in the morning alright. So be ready." Greg said, as Solstice nodded her head.

Nick smiled at Solstice, who smiled back before hugging Nick. Nick was shocked for a minute, before he hugged back.

"You take care of him, alright Nick." Solstice whispered, as Nick nodded.

"Don't worry about his health, I'll worry about that." Nick said, as she smiled at him.

"He's been a whole lot nicer towards people since he ran into you on the first day of school." Solstice said, letting go of Nick.

"I know." Nick said back, as Greg grinned.

"Well we need to go. I have to get Nick home." Greg said, as they left.

"What if I don't want to go home?" Nick said, as Greg snorted.

"We have school in the morning, and besides that, you have a curfew today." Greg said, as he straddled the bike Nick getting on from behind. Greg waved at his sister, before starting his bike, revving it.

Nick smiled lightly and scooted closer to Greg, holding onto his waist, crossing his arms to put one finger from each hand into one of Greg's pant hoops.

"Fine then." Nick said, as Greg smiled at Nick, before speeding off towards his house.

***

Nick awoke the next morning feeling slightly refreshed. He yawned and turned over before he heard a knock on the bedroom door.

"Wha!?" He said, as he heard a snort.

"Nick, it's time for school." He heard his mother say, as he groaned.

"Do I have to go?"

"You skipped Friday, so the answer is YES!" She said, through the door.

Nick mocked her before getting out of the bed. He smirked at this outfit. He realized just how much Greg had rubbed off on him. Nick smiled to himself, before getting out of the putting on his pants and shirt. He put on some tennis shoes and went down the stairs.

"Honey...aren't you going to be hot today?" his mother asked, as Nick shook his head.

"Well I'll see you whenever I get home." Nick said, as he grabbed his bag.

Nick walked out the door to see Greg sitting on his bike.

"Took you long enough." Greg said, as Nick smiled.

"Now you're picking me up." Nick said, as Greg smirked.

Nick got on behind Greg, as he saw his dad's car pull into the driveway.

"Nick?" his dad said, slightly shocked.

"See you later!" Nick said, as Greg smirked, revved his bike and sped off towards the school.

Nick kissed Greg's cheek, as Greg grinned. They got to the school in record time, screeching to a stop in the parking lot.

They got off, as a lot of students started whispering. Greg smirked taking Nick's hand.

"Should we fuck with their head?" Greg whispered to Nick, as they walked over to the big group of their friends. They were on the same wall that the motley three always stood at. Nick stood next to Warrick, as the whispers turned into loud talking about the two. Greg smirked at Nick, who nodded slightly. Greg pushed Nick up against the wall, Nick jumping on Greg, wrapping his legs around his waist. Greg kissed Nick harshly, as many students gasped. Girls squealing, and boys looking disgusted...well some boys.

Their friends just started laughing at the two, before seeing a teacher.

"Guys, teacher." Warrick hissed at them, as they automatically broke apart. They grinned at a few people, who just stared back at them.

"That was evil." Bobby said, as he came over.

"It's what we do." Greg said, as Nick snorted.

"More you than me however. You bad influence." Nick said, as Greg snorted.

"You're a good influence." Greg retorted as everyone laughed.

He glared at them all.

"Oh fuck off, like you could've made a better one." Greg said, smirking at Nick.

"I think I fucking could." Nick said, as Greg made an 'O' with his mouth.

"Okay children, no fighting." David said sarcastically.

Nick and Greg double glared him, as he cringed.

"Okay, that's fucking creepy." David said, hiding behind Archie.

"So, is Todd going to mess with you two?" Catherine asked, as Greg came up from behind Nick, wrapping his arms around his waist.

"If he knows whats good for his health he will." Greg said, as Nick snorted.

"I'd really like to see you fight him again, it was sexy." Nick said, as Greg's eyebrows rose.

"You think it's sexy for me to kick someone's ass?" Greg asked, as Nick nodded, "Archie..go get me an ass to kick."

Nick snorted, and hit Greg's arm lightly.

"Oh shut up." Nick said, as the bell rang.

They all went to their class, the group sitting together. The whole day went by, and by the end of the day everyone knew about Nick and Greg's newfound relationship.

Greg grinned wickedly at Nick as they stepped out of the school.

"It's a small worl--" David tried to sing, as Greg smacked his hand on his mouth.

"If you sing that song I will not hesitate to kill you." Greg said, as David started laughing.

"What's so wrong with that song?" Nick asked, as David continued laughing.

"Greg had that song stuck in his head for two weeks, that's what's wrong with the song." Archie said, as they both snorted.

"Well I need to be getting home. My dad's home. Joy to the fucking world. Now I get to come out to him, so if I'm not here tomorrow...then most likely I'm dead, in a coma, or all of the above." Nick said, as Grissom snorted.

"You can't be dead and be in a coma."

"I don't care. Point is, I don't fucking know how he's going to fucking take it. Damn." Nick said, as Greg started laughing.

"So Nick..fuck?"

"Fuck you!" Nick said, as Greg started laughing harder.

Nick growled at his boyfriend before lunging at him, pushing him up against the wall.

"What is with you two and walls?" David asked, as Archie nodded.

"Fuck you, they support things." Greg said, as Nick started laughing.

"C'mon. You have to drive me home." Nick said, as he continued laughing.

"What the fuck is so funny?" Greg demanded to know, following Nick.

"Nothing, you're pretty." Nick said sarcastically, as Greg glared.

Greg got on his bike, as Nick got on behind him. Greg revved up the bike, and sped off down the street.

***

Nick got off the bike, pulling Greg off with him as Greg killed the bike.

"Nick, do I have to?" Greg said, as Nick pulled him closer to the house.

"Yes." Nick said, as Greg growled.

"I don't want to."

"But it'll be a whole lot easier." Nick said, as Greg shrugged.

"I don't care." Greg said, as Nick snorted.

Nick pouted at Greg, as Greg whined.

"Don't give me that look!" Greg said, as Nick tugged him onto the porch.

"C'mon, it's not like he's going to murder you." Nick said, adding, "It's not that time of the month yet."

Greg's face paled considerably.

"Greg, I was kidding." Nick said, laughing lightly.

"You shouldn't joke about things like that." Greg said, some color coming back.

"Well..I thought you would know it was a joke." Nick said, as Greg shook his head.

"Nick is that you?" a deep voice asked.

Greg shook his head, muttering, "Fuck that!" He turned to leave, but Nick grabbed him.

"Yeah Dad." Nick called, dragging his boyfriend into the living room.

Nick's father was sitting in a chair, glaring at Greg.

"Nick, will you leave me alone with Greg for a minute?" He asked, as Greg shook his head quickly at Nick.

"Sure Dad." Nick said, as Greg yanked him back.

"You can't leave me alone with your dad. I like living Nicky. You see I can experience things that I can't in death." Greg whisper-hissed.

Nick shrugged, leaving the room. Greg regained his fearless composure fast, facing Nick's father.

"My wife has told me a lot about you today Greg." He started out with, adding, "And I would like to know if you're only dating Nick for money."

Greg's look changed as he started laughing.

"What did I say?" Nick's father asked, looking confused.

"Please. I make enough money to get me and my sister by." Greg said, as he regained his composure again.

"Yes..about that, where is she?"

"Solstice is about to get out of school. I have to pick her up in a few minutes." Greg said, as the other man nodded.

"Well how do you provide for her..as far as getting money goes?" He asked, as Greg bit his lip.

"Well sir, I'm not at liberty to discuss that with you. I heard you're a judge." Greg said, as the other man laughed.

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone." He said, as Greg looked him in the eye. He could tell Nick's dad wasn't lying. A man that could look another in the eye and say something was a man that told the truth.

"I participate in illegal motocross racing, I steal things like clothes for her and myself. More so my sister, because I don't really care about appearances." Greg said, as the other man nodded his head, urging him on.

"And what else?"

"Well when we hit a rough patch, one of her friends parents help. They know our situation at home, and try to help as much as they can. I tried working odd jobs, but they never work out." Greg said, as the other tilted his head.

"What's the situation?" Nick's father asked.

"The situation at home, well...if you can call it a home..my father is a drunk, and he's tried hitting us before, so we try to avoid going there half the time." Greg said adding, "So I basically stay out all night, and Solstice usually stays with a friend. I take her to school, and if it's summer, she usually stays out with me."

"How are the both of your grades?"

"I make B's, and Solstice is an A,B Honor Roll student." Greg said simply.

"So..where do you get your clothes?" He asked, giving Greg's attire a look.

"Yes I realize I'm wearing girls pants and a girls hoodie." Greg said, adding, "But they're more comfy, and they're easier to sneak out."

"Hmm. I approve. Although..I'd rather you not steal things." He said, scrunching his nose.

He heard four different squeals, as Nick ran in, hugging Greg.

"YAY!" two voices screamed coming in.

Rachel and Kate, were grinning at their father.

"I didn't say they could get married. Jeez, calm down." He said, sitting back down.

"Well I need to go pick up Solstice. Do you wanna come?" Greg asked Nick, who shook his head.

"There isn't enough room." Nick said, as Greg snorted.

"I can make room." Greg whispered suggestively, as Nick laughed.

"No thanks pervert." Nick giggled, pushing Greg away.

"Alright, I'll see you later." Greg said, walking to the door.

"I'll walk you out." Nick said, as he walked with Greg out the door.

"So your family is okay with me. That's a shock." Greg said, as he leaned against the bike.

"I know. I mean you're such a bad person. Jeez, taking care of your sister, making sure you both survive. I mean why wouldn't he like you." Nick said, sarcastically.

Greg thumped him on the shoulder, as Nick whined.

"That wasn't nice." Nick said, as Greg tried to kiss him.

"Uh uh, you get no kiss for that." Nick said, as Greg pouted.

"Why?" Greg complained.

"You just hit me. You don't get a reward for hitting. They teach you that in Kindergarten." Nick said, as Greg glared.

"Fine." Greg said, getting on his bike.

Nick's eyes widened.

"That doesn't mean leave. That means apologize." Nick droned.

"I'm sorry I hit you because you were being an ass." Greg said, as Nick put on a hurt face.

"You're such a jerk." Nick cried, as Greg got off, hugging the other boy.

"I'm sorry!" Greg said, as Nick started laughing.

"Thank you." Nick said, kissing Greg lightly.

Greg grabbed the back of Nick's head, forcing him into a more passionate kiss, before grinding up against Nick. Nick moaned, and then backed off.

"Don't you wish you were going with me?" Greg asked, getting on his bike. Nick laughed loudly at the question.

"No. I'd like to remain a virgin for another week. But talk to me next week." Nick winked, as Greg lost composure, falling off the bike. Nick ran inside slamming the door, before leaning up against it, laughing loudly.

"WHAT!" Greg yelled.
