am i allowed to do th,is. kiss my ear
the boy before him is such a tiny little thing -- not that jack is very big, but in comparison, he feels he dwarfs the younger teen by a huge amount. he's learned how to creep the kid out, get under his skin, one-up him. aggravating double dee was not a difficult task, and jack took great joy in it. especially when small fists would ball up and pummel at his chest, causing jack to laugh and rear his head back, red hair falling in front of his face.
the one thing he never aimed to do, however, was make double dee cry. jack might be a self-proclaimed "evil genius", but the slight goodness in his heart told him to hang back and make sure the other teen was all right before bailing. double dee sniffled, grumbling under his breath about some off-hand comment jack made about his intelligence and his creations, and jack felt guilt crash over him like a mighty tidal wave. c'mon, don't do this to me. he grimaced visibly, but when he reached down to take hold of the other's chin, his body seemed to work on its own, without aid of his brain.
lips lightly brushed against a wide ear. he felt the other tense beneath his touch but not move away, instead grabbing onto jack's jacket sleeve tightly with both hands and tugging him closer, causing the older to grunt. double dee was still trembling, just slightly, and jack let out a loud sigh. then the dweeb before him said something -- something so quiet jack can't hear it at first. he drew his head back to give the other a befuddled look, squawking, "come again?"
"do... do that--do that again."
and who could resist those big old eyes that looked up at him, the hands that grabbed onto the front of his jacket like a lifeline, and the hint of a smile that tugged at thin lips? jack decided, he'd gladly oblige, thus dipping his head back in and planting a full kiss on the other's earlobe. then he plucked double dee off the ground all of a sudden to give him a great, big bear hug and relished in the startled squeak the other made.
