[CLOSED] -and nothing more.

Baz felt strange about Cole's mother inviting him to sleep over, but he couldn't say no. That was rude, right? He walked up the sidewalk, shifting his bag to the other shoulder. It was heavy, considering he had a text book and a tablet in it. Along with a change of clothes, and some pajama pants.

He walked up the walk, moving his book to his other hand as he raised his hand to the door, knocking gently. He waited patiently on the door step, feeling awkward and out of place. He felt like a bearer of bad news or something, not like he was going to stay the night with Cole.

Cole got up, laughter coming from the other side of the door and a loud, drawled out 'Awh mom!' from within.
Cole opened the door hesitantly, smiling just as Tyler could be seen bolting upstairs away from the pretty woman with a can of whipped cream. "Stay outta the kitchen, yeah?" She laughed, shaking her head.

Cole took Baz's free hand, gently tugging him inside and turning around. Shawn was curled up on the couch half asleep, his medication making him drowsy as he watched tv. Jacob glanced up curiously from the floor where he was fixing broken strings on a guitar.

"Hey, Sebastian yeah? Nice to meet you." He waved.
Cole watched their mother approach and hug him tight. He felt his face heat up. "Sorry..." He huffed. "You can bring those upstairs, Shawn's gonna sleep on the trundle in the rec room tonight..." He led him towards the stairway.

Baz walked in, all the commotion a bit confusing to him. He waved back to Jacob hesitantly, not bothering to tell him that he went by Baz. He felt arms around him and turned red, unable to do much more than stand there.

"Uh.. Okay.." He said, letting go of Cole's hand. He knew he would probably end up sleeping in a chair, which was just a sad fact of his life. He spent more sleeping time in chairs than he did in an actual bed. He climbed the stairs. He didn't know how they worked, but guests back home didn't go into rooms unless invited. They just left their things at the end of the hall until it was time for bed. He walked down the hall, setting his bags and book down before making his way back down the stairs, again confused by the amount of people in the house. He walked over to Cole again, his hands in his pockets.

"Big family.." He mumbled, wondering how the woman put up with so many boys and didn't go crazy. 'I'm going mad just being here for a few minutes..' He though.

"Yeah..." Cole mumbled guiltily. "It's quietter downstairs if you wanna go..there's a tv and stuff to do.." He rubbed at his arm self consciously, things calming a bit now that Tyler was upstairs doing whatever.

He caught the smile from his mom and glanced over at Shawn for a moment, then back at Baz with a sheepish smile.

Baz was watching Cole's mom, since she was the only moving thing around him. Except for Jacob, but he wasn't quite sure he wanted to talk to him yet. He seemed more dangerous than the rest. Then again, he was bigger than them.. He looked over at Cole, wondering if taking his hand would be too forward. He decided not to, not in front of his mom.

"Sure. That sounds good." He mumbled, reaching over to fix the boy's hair.

Cole smiled at him happily. He led him downstairs after a moment, patting Jacob's head on the way. Once he was sure nobody was watching, he stepped close, wrapping arms hesitantly around Baz, stretching up to offer him a brief, gentle kiss on the lips, feeling his cheeks heat up.

Baz's hands went to Cole's hips, pulling him close as he leaned down. He kissed him softly, his fingers rubbing his sides gently. He wanted so badly to keep kissing him, to feel him there close to him. But he knew that doing that would be pushing it.

"Hey, handsome." He smiled, reaching over to stroke his cheek gently. He held him for a moment longer, leaning down to steal another kiss before he pulled him to the sofa. He sat down, pulling Cole into his lap. He wrapped his arms around him, kissing his neck gently before he rested his chin on his shoulder.

Cole smiled against his lips, dropping into his lap as he was pulled down. "Hi," He murmued, tilting his head as Baz rested his chin on his shoulder. He kissed him on the cheek, curling up close.

Drawing in a soft breath he reached over and turned on the tv, resting his head against Sebastian's.

Baz smiled, keeping his arms tight around the boy. He watched the TV with little interest -he never got used to a moving, talking image- and occasionally brushed his lips against Cole's neck. He ran his fingers over his shirt, glancing up at Cole. He couldn't help thinking how perfect the boy was, and how lucky he was to have a boy like him like Baz. He kissed his neck again.

"I missed you." He said with a smile, his French accent as thick as ever.

[cole manaj gryffon]

Cole shifted his weight, turning some to kiss him shyly on the lips again. "I missed you, too," He murmured, glancing up as Jacob came downstairs, putting his guitar on his stand. He paused to look at them, smiling just slightly, and headed back up to the main floor to help his mom with dinner. The faint sound of drums could be heard from an upstairs bedroom, everyone off doing their own thing.
