Isaac didn't really know where he was driving, all he knew was that Jake was in the seat next to him and it looked like it was going to rain. Isaac was grateful for the silence they were sitting in, he just appreciated that Jake was here. Jake was tapping his fingers against the glass window as he nodded along to the radio, Isaac every now and then would look over at him and smile. Jake was by far the cutest person in the whole world, Isaac couldn't understand how he Jake Harden sitting in his car, which could potentially become their second date. That thought alone was enough to make Isaac smile, he wanted to date Jake. Like he wanted to be Jake's boyfriend. That was a mad idea.

Isaac turned his head slightly to look at Jake, "Is this a date or not?"

"I thought you were kidnapping me." Jake said, cocking his head teasingly.

"Well it can still be a date while I kidnap you." Isaac smiled, his own fingers tapping against the steering wheel, as he bit his lip desperately trying to hide the grin that threatened to show.

Isaac on the other hand though, he let out a laugh that made Isaac's squeeze with happiness. He was whipped on this boy, "It's a romantic kidnapping."

"Yeah, a romantic kidnapping." Isaac agreed, shooting Jake another quick look, "You hungry?"

Jake nodded and that's how they ended up sitting in KFC. To anyone else in the place it would look like just bros having lunch, however Isaac knew better. Isaac had brought Jake his food; Jake had refused at first, but Isaac insisted it was a date after all. They were sitting opposite each other, their feet intertwined under the table. Most importantly though, Isaac was getting to listen to Jake talk about whatever he wanted, rambling about he loved which only made Isaac more invested in everything that involved Jake.

Sure, it sucked that Jake was in the closet. All Isaac wanted to do was slip his hand into Jake's and hold it across the table, maybe even lean over and press a kiss to the corner of Jake's mouth. Despite wanting all of this and how easy it would be to just do it, Isaac respected Jake. He couldn't – he wouldn't do that to Jake. They would go at Jake's pace, Isaac was fine with this. It really didn't bother him, what did bother him was how fast he had fallen for Jake.

Isaac had never felt like this about anyone, he was shocked that he found himself wanting to do romantic things with Jake. He wanted to be better for Jake, not scare him off. Even though he felt all of this, he couldn't help the feeling that it would never happen. Look a the shitstorm that Isaac literally just drove away from. He couldn't drag Jake into that part of his life, so he would enjoy the time he had with Jake, until Jake realises that he could do better than Isaac.

Jake threw a chip at Isaac getting his attention, "Wanna tell me what's going on in that mad head of yours?"

"Thinking of what I'm going to do with you when I get to my secret lair." Isaac replied, taking a bite out of his chicken wing, winking at Jake. The blush that spread across Jake's face was so worth it.

Jake looked down at his food, then back up at Isaac. He took a deep shaky breath, "What we sitting here for then?"

Isaac had never scrambled out of his seat that quick before, he caught his foot on the leg of the chair he was sitting on sending him flying into Jake who caught him. Jake laughed down at Isaac in his arms, Isaac was glad that he offered some type of amusement for Jake. Even though Jake was laughing, Isaac could still see the nervousness on his face. Isaac really didn't want to push Jake into something he wasn't comfortable with.

When they were both sitting in the car, Isaac checked to make sure that there was no one around, so he could press a reassuring kiss to the knuckles of Jake's hard. Isaac, for extra measure, sent a soft smile towards Jake, letting him know that he was safe with Isaac. Jake stroked the side of Isaac's face slowly, his fingertips dragging softly at Isaac's skin. Once Jake's hand fell from Isaac's face, Isaac face forward in his seat and turned on the ignition. He was going to make this the best second date ever.

They drove nodding along to the radio, arguing over songs that played. Like Isaac had suspected Jake was one of them football guys who only listened to rap and didn't know other good music. Isaac made a mental note to introduce him to All Time Low, a soft transition into the rockier side of music. There was no way that Isaac was only going to listen rap when he was Jake, no matter how much he liked Jake.

When Isaac finally stopped the car, Jake was already climbing out of the car, "Isn't this where you took me last time? I mean isn't that cheating?"

Isaac followed him, grabbing his hand, pulling him along, "Shut up. Last time we were in the car, now we're going to sit on that bench."

"No offense, but your lair sucks."

"Fuck you."

Isaac sat down on top of the picnic bench that faced the river, his feet resting on the bench. He dragged Jake down next to him, once Jake was sitting beside Isaac, he rested his head in the crook of Jake's neck. Snuggling into him, breathing in his smell. Jake smelled really good. Isaac could feel Jake chuckling softly at Isaac's actions. Jake wrapped an arm around Isaac's waist pulling him closer into Jake's body. Jake turned his head slightly, so he could nuzzle his nose in the messy mop of Isaac's hair. Isaac couldn't help but smile at the action. It was nice to know that Jake was just as wrapped up in him as he was of Jake.

"Why did you suddenly want to meet today?" Jake asked, it was so soft Isaac almost missed it. Jake noticed how Isaac tensed up at the question, "You don't have to answer if you don't want to."

Isaac sat up straight, Jake's arm still firmly around his waist, "No, it's fine. I just don't want to scare you off."

"You won't scare me off. If you need to talk about anything, I'm here. I won't judge you." Jake assured him. It was such a nice feeling knowing that Jake wanted to know the dark side of stuff to. That he wanted to be there for Isaac. Isaac felt warm all over.

"I went home after leaving Freddy's. Thanks for taking me there by the way." Isaac breathed in deeply, "My mum and uncle were there. I haven't seen my mum since I was thirteen. It was intense, so I ran. I guess I knew you'd make me feel better."

Isaac didn't miss the way Jake tightened his arm around his waist, "Sounds shit. I've got your back, if you need to escape just call and I'll come."

Isaac pressed a thankful kiss to Jake's neck. Apparently, that wasn't enough for Jake, placing a hand on Isaac's face turning it so he could press his lips to Isaac's. It was the sweetest kiss that Isaac had ever had in his life. No one had ever wanted to kiss him like this before. It made Isaac's head spin. Everything about Jake made Isaac's head spin. Isaac's hand gripped onto the front of Jake's shirt holding him close, terrified he'll let go and leave. Jake pulled Isaac against him, until there was no space between them and Isaac's hand trapped between their bodies.

Isaac pulled on Jake's shirt pulling him forward. Isaac fell backwards so he was lying on the picnic table, pulling Jake down after him. Jake shuffled himself around, so he was lying on top of Isaac comfortably, not crushing Isaac either. Isaac wound his arms around Jake's neck, opening his mouth letting Jake slide his tongue into Isaac's mouth. Isaac tried his hardest not to melt into a puddle as Jake's hand down his thigh, the feeling of Jake's hand anywhere on his body was enough to make Isaac arch up into Jake's body. Jake's hand trailed up Isaac's body, stopping up his shirt resting on his hip. Isaac wrapped a leg around Jake's waist trying to keep him as close as possible. He loved the feeling of Jake pressed up against him. It felt right.

They were both so wrapped up in each other, practically breathing in each other, they didn't even notice the rain that started to pour down. Jake dragged his mouth away from Isaac's, kissing across his jaw and down his neck, sucking softly as Isaac clutched on to him in rain.
