Summary - AU/AU Jack and Ennis are on the 1st volleyball team at high school. Jack is a junior and Ennis a senior. They didn't like each other at first (but times are changing...)

Last chapter recap - E and J went on their 'date' and things are going rather well. We left them rolling around in a field...

Jack and Ennis (plus other BBM characters) do sadly not belong to me, *sniff*. This is written purely for fun.

Special thanks as always [livejournal.com profile] hesamathgeek for the beta - the 'mothers' became a 'seminar' in the end - hope that's ok ;)

Warnings - m/m action (for sure!)

Feedback - yes please! So sorry I didn't get the time to reply to comments last time - will do better this week I promise!



As Jack floated down to earth for the second time, he was sure he could see stars behind his eyelids. He sighed in complete contentment. “Mmm, you sure you’ve never done this before?” he asked sleepily, eyes closed.

“Only on myself,” Ennis said, stroking his hand up and down Jack’s thigh.

“Damn waste,” Jack murmured, lips curving into a smile. He sensed Ennis move over him and felt hot breath on his face before warm lips brushed over his.

“Hmmm, depends who I was thinking of at the time,” Ennis murmured back.

Jack’s smile widened and he reached out to tangle his fingers in Ennis’ hair, pulling him closer to deepen the kiss, tongues sliding together, the taste of Ennis getting more intoxicating each time he had a bit. They parted, breathing heavily and Jack glanced down at Ennis’ denim clad lower half. “Guess you could do with some cleaning up too huh?”

“Guess so.” Ennis rolled onto his back and pushed down his jeans and boxers as Jack had done, cock springing out looking for attention, attention that Jack was more than willing to give it. The sight of Ennis in all his naked glory was beautiful and Jack couldn’t stop his hand from reaching out to touch him, fingers curling around the hard shaft before Ennis had even gotten his jeans past his knees.

“Wait a second,” Ennis grunted and Jack was forced to let go as Ennis leaned forward to flick off his clothes impatiently. “Ok, now go,” he said and lay back to let Jack take over. Jack didn’t need any further encouragement and sat up to straddle Ennis’ legs, loving the feel of Ennis’ naked skin against his. Sliding his hands slowly up Ennis’ thighs he caressed his balls gently and stroked a thumb and forefinger up and down Ennis’ cock, as he had done to him.

“Uh, Jack. So good,” Ennis groaned, hands twisting in the grass at his sides. Jack grasped him tightly and ran his thumb around and across the wet tip and Ennis jerked in response. He began a slow up and down thrust on Ennis’ cock, reaching his other hand forward to stroke lightly across Ennis’ chest and nipples at the same time. Ennis gasped and moaned, “Oh Jesus,” as his body writhed and his dick pulsated under Jack’s touch. A few seconds later he tensed all over and came with a long groan, shooting over his stomach. Jack watched in awe, loving the reaction but not quite believing the power he seemed to possess to make this person so seemingly helpless, so quickly, under his touch.

“Fuck.” Ennis threw an arm across his eyes, breathing hard.

“What? You ok?” Jack asked in concern.

“Oh yeah,” Ennis said breathlessly, lips twitching, “feel like a wet rag. Can’t move.”

“Then don’t.” Jack slid off him and lay on his front so they were touching all down one side. He folded his arms and lay his head down on them, turning to face Ennis whose arm was still covering half his face.

“Mmmm,” Jack let out a contented sigh.

Ennis lifted his arm up and turned his head to look at Jack. “You’re ok?”

Jack smiled. “Never better.”

Ennis briefly touched him on the shoulder before covering his eyes with his arm again. “Did a damn fine job of cleaning us up.”

Jack laughed, “Uh huh,” and plucked at a few blades of grass between his fingers, trying to recall the last time he had felt so happy and relaxed, yet exhilarated at the same time. The vision of Ennis lying naked next to him, breathing gently, skin glowing golden brown, was a sight he knew he’d never forget. He had the most perfect body that Jack had ever seen.

A while later his grumbling stomach brought his mind back to reality though, and Jack was forced to appreciate that he couldn’t survive on sex alone, or dine on visions of Ennis forever, unfortunately.

“So,” he pushed up onto his elbows and tugged on a lock of Ennis’ hair, “I’m starving. Tell me more about those BBQ ribs.”

****
Back in the diner, having discreetly cleaned up as well as they could in the bathroom, they sat back in the same booth and ordered ribs and more sodas. Not saying much, they spoke volumes with their actions, tearing at meat with their teeth, licking BBQ sauce off bones, sucking slowly on sticky fingers, eyes constantly watching each other. Jack had to admit they were damn fine ribs, made ten times better by the company of course. They spent an hour or so playing pool after eating, using the close confines of the diner as an excuse to brush against each other as often as possible, admiring the other’s ass as they bent over the table to make a shot.

Later, Ennis drove Jack home. Jack made him park around the corner from his house because he didn’t want to face questions from his mom about who had given him a ride. Jack wished he could kiss Ennis goodbye, but it was too risky as there were people walking about who might see, so he had to settle for a lingering look at his mouth and a stroke of Ennis’ arm. “Guess I’ll see you at practice tomorrow night huh?”

Ennis quirked his lips and gave him a quick wink. “You bet.”

Jack jumped out and watched as Ennis turned the truck around in the street and headed back in the opposite direction. He kept on watching until the truck had disappeared over the top of the hill and into the distance. Jack crossed his arms over his chest. He suddenly felt a little cold. He missed Ennis’ presence immediately. As he walked the last few yards home he was already counting the hours until they could see each other again.

****
On Wednesday lunchtime in the cafeteria, Lureen, Brodie and LaShawn were all buzzing with plans for Friday night.

“It’s your last match of the season, Jack, so we wanna come and watch!” Lureen said with glee. “You said it was at home so we can all come along after school then go out after to celebrate!”

“We haven’t won the match yet, Lu,” Jack said with a grin and patted her on the shoulder. “You’re being a little bit optimistic, don’t you think?”

“Well win, lose, whatever, we should go out anyway for pizza or something,” Brodie joined in enthusiastically.

Jack couldn’t help wondering what Ennis’ plans were for Friday night, especially considering what had happened *last* Friday night at Cory’s place. He couldn’t just abandon his friends though so he tried to keep thoughts of Ennis to a minimum. “Sure, sounds great guys,” he replied, although he was a little nervous about them seeing him playing in a proper match, with Ennis.

“I hear you’re playing against Churchdown High, right?” LaShawn asked in hope. Jack nodded.

“Oh goody!” she clapped her hands in delight. “My sister says they have the best looking boys in town!”

Brodie looked pained. “LaShawn, it’s about the sport, not who’s got the cutest team, ya know?”

“Oh whatever,” LaShawn waved her hand and gazed into the distance. “I need to pick my outfit carefully on Friday.”

Lureen swatted her arm. “Hon, they won’t be looking at what you’re wearing when they’ve got a game to win!”

“Well, a girl’s gotta be prepared,” LaShawn refused to be squashed.

Jack shook his head in disbelief. Friday’s game could be quite interesting, but at least it might take some of the focus off him if the girls were eyeing up the other players.

****
Wednesday night’s practice was tough, with a couple of the boys being under the weather and several others suffering from end of season lethargy. Jack and Ennis were so pre-occupied with not looking at each other that they lacked the usual spark they had on court. Jack’s timing was off and Ennis hit more balls out than in.

“Guys! Guys!” Coach yelled at them, “what’s with you all tonight? You’re playing like a bunch of zombies! Take five and get a drink.”

The boys walked to their bags at the side of the gym and pulled out bottles and cans. Jack leaned against the wall and slid down to sit on his ass, arms resting over his knees. Ennis joined him, as did Chad. Ennis sucked on his water bottle in silence.

“So, last game for us on Friday,” Chad mused, “apart from State of course. Kinda sad in a way, end of an era.” He took a slurp from his can.

Jack’s stomach clenched when he realised the meaning behind Chad’s words. Of course, him, Ennis, Cory and a couple of the others were seniors and would all be graduating soon. The team next year would have a load of new players to replace them.

Jack took a deep breath. “Yeah, guess so. Be weird without you guys. You gonna keep playing at college?”

Ennis rested his head back against the wall and Chad leaned forward to carry on his conversation with Jack. “Oh sure. My first choice college has a great team. They even play beach volleyball, might have a crack at that too - good excuse to watch the babes in their little outfits!” Chad chuckled to himself and took another swallow of drink as Jack just nodded. Ennis had his eyes shut now, making no effort to join in with the chat.

“So Jack,” Chad continued, “talking about babes, any of your friends coming to watch the game on Friday?”

“Uh, yeah,” Jack said in surprise, “why?”

“That dark haired one you walk home sometimes. She your girlfriend?” Chad cocked an eyebrow speculatively, glancing at Ennis as he spoke.

Jack refused to look at Ennis and shook his head at Chad, “Lureen? No, she’s just a friend. She’s not seeing anyone.”

“No? Man, she’s cute. Think you missed a trick there dude. She coming Friday?”

“Should be,” Jack sucked on his bottle again and regarded Chad critically. He seemed like a decent enough guy, if a bit smooth. Pretty good looking too in a kind of military way, with pale blue eyes and close cropped hair. Lureen could do a lot worse he reckoned.

“Yeah, they’ve all got plans to come down here after school to watch,” Jack continued.

“Cool,” Chad nodded, “better make sure I play to impress then!” and he jumped up to stretch his legs. “Put in a good word for me if you can. Ok?”

“Uh, sure. Ok.”

Ennis opened his eyes and rolled them at Jack, who ducked his head and smothered a grin.

Coach clapped his hands. “Time’s up, get your asses on court pronto and let’s see if we can actually play this time.”

****
Jack had managed to avoid Ennis in the locker room previously, not trusting his body to behave if he should catch a glimpse of too much flesh. It was odd how the sight of the other guys didn’t affect Jack at all.

He waited until Ennis had come back from the showers before heading in himself. He slicked his hair back under the hot spray, eyes closed, enjoying the warmth seeping into his muscles. He heard the door to the locker room squeak open and opened one eye cautiously. He was always the last in the showers.

Ennis stopped in his tracks when he saw Jack, taking a long look at his wet, naked body, brown eyes following the water streaming down his skin.

“Uh, hi, I left, er…” Ennis’s eyes couldn’t focus on Jack’s face, but he managed to point at a stray bottle of shower gel on the shelf opposite Jack.

Jack picked it up and threw it across to Ennis, hitting him with a thud on his bare chest as he fumbled to catch it. He noticed that Ennis was only wearing a pair of unbuttoned jeans. With shower flushed skin and damp hair curling wildly, Ennis looked good enough to eat and Jack couldn’t help the slide of his hands downwards to cover himself self-consciously, as he felt blood rush to his dick. Ennis’ gaze followed his hands and he licked his lower lip.

“Ennis, you ready yet?” Chad’s voice floated in from the locker room and Ennis’ eyes snapped back up to Jack’s in horror just as Chad’s head came into view.

“Geez, you guys having a friggin’ seminar in here or what?” he said, eyes flicking between them. He took in Jack’s startled bunny look, hands over his dick and then Ennis’ awkward stance and guilty expression.

“Uh, ok dudes, whatever,” Chad said, eyes suspicious. “Let’s go man,” he shot Ennis a look and headed back out.

“Sorry,” Ennis mouthed to Jack, raising up his bottle of shower gel, and he disappeared with one last lingering look.

Oh shit, thought Jack, leaning his head back against the tiled wall, god knows what Chad made of that little exchange. He hoped he wouldn’t give Ennis a hard time about it. Neither of them needed any more confusion in their lives right now.

Oh no, I hope Chad doesnt start any rumours, not just when things were going well. :( I wonder what is going to happen on Friday and if Ennis and Jack are going to be able to act like they are not even friends...its proving difficult already! I love this fic, I love the way the tension between them is so real and palpable, its in the air and so strong.

Can't wait for the next chapter.

Thanks hon! Chad's a pretty smart guy (if a bit of a charmer) but I'm not sure how he's going to react if/when he finds out about J and E. The guys are trying to be subtle, but there's a difference between 'trying' and 'being', hehe. Who can say how long it will last?!

Thanks so much for your comment!

~Ohhh... you had me smiling as soon as I saw a new chapter! Yeah, and I've been smiling through the whole chapter, till the end... I really, really hope that Chad won't start any rumours or something. Ennis and Jack really don't need that right now.

I loved the chapter. Some lovin', some friends talking, some angst; just the way I like it! Thanks!~

Chad is certainly a bit suspicious now, but he may decide it's none of his business and keep out of it. Ennis is his mate after all. Everything is still so new for J and E that they sure don't need anyone else sticking their nose in!

Oh this is moving along so nicely. Liked it all and especially this description:

Ennis stopped in his tracks when he saw Jack, taking a long look at his wet, naked body, brown eyes following the water streaming down his skin.

....Jack couldn’t help the slide of his hands downwards to cover himself self-consciously, as he felt blood rush to his dick. Ennis’ gaze followed his hands and he licked his lower lip.



Worried though about Chad's future reaction.

This story always put me into a good, happy mood, it´s such a joy and pleasure to read. It´s very nice to see their friendship growing too, not only their passion for each other, and they are both so cute when they try to oppress the desire the other evokes. I can´t wait to see what will happen when Jack´s friends are coming to see him play and they all will have a party afterwards.
Thank you so much for the quick update,

I was surprised and so happy to see an update!
It seems it's impossible for them to hide the fact that something has changed between them. And locker rooms... I can imagine that it must be tough... I hope it is going to be ok for them.
I adore the way you describe all the things that are new to them; "Jack watched in awe, loving the reaction but not quite believing the power he seemed to possess to make this person so seemingly helpless, so quickly, under his touch."
And Ennis going to college, that is going to be tough, luckily they have all the summer to get to know each other, right?
Wonder what Lureen will say about Chad?
Lovely chapter :)

Thanks Johanna. Yes, it's got to be hard for the guys to keep things 'normal' in the locker rooms - all that testosterone flying around!

They should have the summer - all being well, although Jack isn't sure what Ennis is doing yet, or where.

I reckon Lureen will be pretty flattered by Chad's attention - he is an older guy after all :)

Hi, Anna!

I love your story. After the tough beginning it got happy and I think you do a good job depicting them as teenagers in love without beeing too lovey dovey. I hope there is not too much angst in the future (Chad?).

Thank you for writing!

Thanks Antonella - I'm glad you think it's not too lovey dovey - despite their attraction I can't see them being that way somehow!!

All good relationships must have a bit of angst somewhere, so I guess it won't be plain sailing for them forever!

I think Chad is suspicious, but I don't think he really knows why. He acted a bit confused in the shower.
Great chapter. I'm looking forward to your next update. : )

Hi Debra, you could be right. Chad only thinks he may have seen something, but Ennis' history with Alma etc. may convince him that Ennis isn't that way at all - if that makes sense?!

Like the other I'm worried about Chad but I'm actually more worried about the fact that when they were talking about being their last year playing because they are seniors, Ennis had such a serious reaction and didn't comment at all. Is he leaving??
Oh and Jack has it bad for Ennis, but it does seems it goes both ways so that's good because this is looking harder and harder for them (no pun intended ;)...maybe a little)

Ennis does have plans after high school - but we (i.e. as Jack) don't know them yet. They haven't had any conversations about their 'future' so far, but if things continue as they are then it won't be long until J finds out. it's nothing too sinister, so don't worry! :)

Thanks so much for the gorgeous update. What's Chad going to say?
How good a friend of Ennis' is he anyway?
Should know though not to give them a hard time. The team is relying on them.
Maybe Chad can be for Ennis what Brodie is for Jack. They could need that. With Chad being interested in Lureen though this secret might just slip out at the wrong time ....

All the best, B.

I loved this exchange most of all:

Jack’s smile widened and he reached out to tangle his fingers in Ennis’ hair, pulling him closer to deepen the kiss, tongues sliding together, the taste of Ennis getting more intoxicating each time he had a bit.


The attraction is explosive, but it's nice that they are becoming real friends as well...

Four-Two Offense Chapter 12

From: [identity profile] bmshirts.livejournal.com
Uh Oh!!! I hope Chad is the friend to Ennis that he's thought to be. School's close to being over. The boys need this time to cement their relationship, not having to worry about Chad's suspicions, or Lureen's big mouth. Maybe if Chad and Lureen get together, they'll have someone else to occupy their minds and not care about Jack and Ennis. Of course, that requires Chad to keep his suspicions to himself!
I thought LaShawn was hot for Ennis. Now she's after anything in long pants?
I hope the guys can have a place where they can get together away from prying eyes. And that the after-game Friday get together will be easy for Jack to ditch so he can be with Ennis.
Thanks. Carole

Hi Carol!
The path of true love never runs smoothly does it?! Lureen and Chad getting together would definitely be good - for many people!
LaShawn is certainly a little fickle on the man front - she flits about like a butterfly - I just hope she doesn't hurt Brodie in the mean time!

Anna, you always got me speechless, breathless and sweating!!

I really love this chapter!! You're boys are so damn sweet adn sexy. What I love the most is after Chad catching them almost "together", Ennis not only didn't freak out but he also said sorry to Jack. So different from those Ennis who always want to run away from that. I love that he's not acting like a jerk with Jack in front of his friends anymore.

Thank you so much!! You made my day!!

I think the only reason Ennis has not freaked out yet is that no-one has *actually* seen anything go on - although they may have suspicions. I think Ennis can deal with possible rumours, it's people knowing for sure that would be an issue for him.
Until next time m'dear!

Was I the only one so touched by Jack's brotherly assessment of whether Chad was good enough for Lureen? That was just adorable to me.

Unfortunately, it does appear that their secret is growing less secret by the day. Ennis managed to feign disinterest while Chad conversed with Jack, which was pretty good, but that shower scene was rather telling. I'm hoping that even if Chad does have some kind of problem with homosexuality, he'll keep it to himself for the sake of the team in case it jeopardizes his chances at the college he's planning to attend. I'm not convinced that Chad won't understand, though.

And damn it, Brodie, get off your ass and ask that girl out! ;)

Thanks for another fun chapter, Anna! I'm looking forward to that Friday night game and celebration.

You're the only one who's commented on Jack's brotherly assessment of Chad so far!! I thought it was cute of him too :)

The boys sure need to be a bit more subtle if they want to keep things secret, but with teenage hormones in the mix it's always going to be a struggle!

Hopefully Chad will be too caught up in his own issues (girls, college etc.) to worry what J and E are up to - we shall see!

Thanks so much for your help and support :)

Oh, this is just SO good! I wonder what Chad thinks, though, and if he's gonna give J&E a hard time, or tell other people. And I had forgotten that Ennis was a senior, does that mean he's going to be leaving soon? *worries* Thanks so much for this story! I absolutely love it!

Thanks Camilla - yes Ennis graduates shortly and so poor old Jack faces another year of high school without him.... Chad is in limbo at the moment - not completely sure what he knows or believes!

Uh oh, I hope Chad won't figure it out anytime soon, but he probably will. Maybe Lureen can distract him some ;-)
I wonder what Ennis is going to do after graduation.
Thanks for the update.

I hope he doesn't either! I think Lureen would be able to do a good distraction act, given half the chance! :)

Thanks for the comment!

excellent chapter. i like that they both seem to really like each other on the same level, neither one freaking out or being weird about anything. i hope chad doesn't f everything up, that would suck, but maybe they'll be able to figure out a way to deal with it if he does.

so, i wonder what ennis' post high school plans are??? very curious about his lack of input in that conversation.

i love this story. you're doing an excellent job with it. thanks for writing. s.

Thanks so much S - your comments always mean a lot to me!

Ennis hasn't freaked out yet, but then no-one actually *knows* about them yet (apart from Brodie of course, but Ennis doesn't know that!!)

Ennis does have plans post-school, Jack will get around to asking him at some point! :)

Hi Jessica - I'm so pleased I was able to brighten your mood a bit - J and E have that impact on me at times and this is a fun story to write :)

Next chapter not far away!
