"You better stop staring before you burn a hole in his head." Stan said, pulling the once loving stare Mike had moved to himself.

"Well, what am I supposed to do?" Mike asked, letting his eyes wander back to the full head of brunette hair a few rows in front of himself. "Be normal and talk to him. You've been staring at him since he moved to the class in August." Stan pointed out, getting a questioning look from Mike.

The tan teen's eyes seemed to ask why that was bad. Stan let out a sigh, "Its February."

Mike left out a defeated huff and looked back at his paper. "Okay, I'll do it today." Mike promised, getting a satisfied smile from the blonde next to himself.

"Good."

After class, Mike followed the pettiet student to his locker, watching from afar as he tried to build the courage to at least approach him. He scanned over the unknown teen before letting out a sigh and walking over to him.

He came up next to the brunette, making the teen look away from his locker and look at him. His eyes scanned Mike up and down as if he was trying to pinpoint where he was from. "Hi, my name's Mike. I've been seeing you around school, and I think you're a pretty cool guy, so I just wanted to ask-"

As he was talking, Eddie held up a finger and started digging in his bag, making Mike stop talking in the process. The shorter teen pulled out a pad of sticky notes with a pen that was clipped onto the edges.

He began writing down a quick sentence before gently pulling it off and sticking it to the textbook Mike was still holding. "Are you talking to me?" was written neatly across the square page.

Mike looked to the brunette and gave a short nod. He pulled out his own pen from his back pocket and quickly wrote, "My name's Mike." He took the page off his book and stuck it on the locker at eye level for the other teen.

Eddie read the note and then wrote his response, taking it off the locker and sticking it back to its previous resting place. "Eddie. I'm also deaf, I can see the confusion on your face."

Mike let out a huff of a laugh, hearing a slight giggle from Eddie. He wrote one last message on the note that was to soon set off a relationship neither one of them expected. "Let's be friends. We could both use some more of those."

From then on, Mike and Eddie would talk every day in history. One of them would walk by the other, sticking their 1st sticky note of the day on it. They would write back and forth, sticking them on each other's backpacks in the hall, leaving them on their seat in class and even on the other's locker in a passing period.

Eddie had even begun teaching Mike some basic words in asl, just enough to hold a basic conversation. They had begun meeting in an unused classroom in the back of the school, just talking and teaching.

Eddie's mood had picked up significantly, the change being noticed by his best friend, Beverly. The ginger had noticed Eddie being more talkative and leaving their friends to go off into the dark hallways.

"What's got you happy as a peacock today?" She asked, looking at the smile displayed on Eddie's face. The brunette looked to her as well as Richie and Bill, their other friends. Richie was the only other deaf person in the group. The other two just know sign language.

Eddie just smiled wider and shook his head.

"Well, it's gotta be something, Eds. You haven't smiled this long into me talking to you for years." Richie joked, getting a laugh from the other two friends.

"It's Mike. He asked me to meet him in our meeting place after school. Last time we started watching a movie and I'm hoping we're going to finish it today." Eddie stated, watching as his friends just nodded their heads.

"Well, I wish you luck, Eddie." Bill said, signaling that the bell had just rung right after.

At the end of the day, Eddie walked down the dimly lit hall and turned into the room before closing the door. He turned around and let his eyes widen, and an audible gasp came out of his mouth.

Mike had decorated the once bland room with yellow fairy lights, hanging them from the hooks on the ceiling. A fort of blankets was set up against the back wall, and the projector was turned on, displaying the aforementioned movie.

Eddie let his eyes take in the beautiful scenery before settling them on Mike, who was lying in the fort, with a laptop next to him and snacks on the other side. The brunette walked over to Mike before sitting down, so they were looking at each other.

"You did all this?" He asked, eyebrows raised up as he asked. Mike just nodded, a cute but wide smile coming onto his face as he admitted to the supposed crime.

Eddie smiled back just as wide before looking at the laptop, the way placed almost carelessly on the blanket under themselves. "Let's watch the movie. I wanna know how it ends." He signed excitedly. Mike gave a quick chuckle before holding a hand up to stop the brunette before he got too excited.

"We will, I just want to ask you something first." Mike said, catching Eddie off guard for a few reasons. 1. Why was Mike stopping him, and 2, when did he learn to sign all of that?

Mike took a deep breath and looked at his hands before looking back at Eddie. "The first time I saw you, I immediately had an attraction towards you, and when I first talked to you, it grew stronger. You've made my life as good and bright as it can be, and I don't want to lose a great guy like you, Eddie."

Eddie could feel some tears building up in his eyes as he watched Mike's hands move with such grace and purpose. It was as if he was signing in cursive with the way it curved so beautifully.

Mike gave a shy smile as he signed the question he had been planning on asking for a while. "Will you go out with me on Valentine's Day? As my date?"

Eddie was at complete loss of words. All he could do was sit with hands clutching the soft covers he was sitting on and look at the thoughtful teen in front of himself. He wanted nothing more than to hold the bigger male, but he had to answer first.

"I would love to go out with you, Mike. I couldn't say no even if I wanted to. You did all this for me... where did you even learn to sign all that?" Eddie asked, curious to know. Mike just rubbed the back of his neck before answering, "I asked your friend Richie for help. I wanted to make this special, and he was more than willing to help."

Eddie nodded, making a mental note to thank his curly haired bestie later.

It was the Saturday of Valentine's Day, and Eddie was frantically looking for a good enough outfit to wear out. He threw shirts and pants at his bed as he disqualified them from the option pile.

Richie looked at Bill with a slight bit of concern. "He's gonna hurt himself looking for this outfit." Richie signed, getting a nod from the other male.

Eddie soon reappeared from the pile of clothes with a flannel that he'd seem to be looking for the whole time.

He gingerly slipped it over his white wife-beater and turned to his friends.

"How do I look?" He asked, getting nods of approval from the other two. "You look good." Richie signed.

Eddie gave a short shake of his head and went to grab his small brown bag. Once he and his friends went downstairs, the lights began flashing, signaling that someone rang the doorbell.

Richie got to the door first and opened it to reveal Mike. The ravenette waved happily at the tan skinned male, getting Bill's attention with a snap. The auburn haired male nudged Eddie, making him look at the door.

Mike gave a half smile back. He looked Eddie up and down and couldn't find a single flaw. His jeans hugged his legs beautifully, and the flannel colors brightened his skin in the best way.

"You ready to go?" Mike signed, giving a full smile. Eddie nodded and put the bag on his shoulder, walking to the door. When he got to the door, he turned back to his friends.

Bill was now next to Richie at the door, and they were both smiling at the pair. "I want you back by 11, young man." Richie signed, getting a laugh from everyone. "Have fun, and Mike, treat him right tonight." Bill said, closing the door as they began walking the Mike's car.

The pair climbed into the slightly tall truck and began their drive to a restaurant. It was a diner just outside Derry. The neon sign was a bright red and white that had, 'Freezy's Diner'.

They pair walked in, hand in hand. Mike held the door for Eddie to walk through and followed quickly after. They picked a 4-person booth that was close to the back and had good lighting. They sat across from each other, and Mike finally saw the wide smile on Eddie's face.

"It's so cozy in here. It smells like burgers and fries." Eddie signed. His eyes closed as he took in a deep breath and let it out with a sigh. Mike laughed with him and looked up as a waitress came over with a small notepad and pen.

"Hey, how are y'all?" She asked, looking between both teens. Mike looked at Eddie and translated what she said before answering with a quick 'good', translating that too. She gave a smile and took their drink and food orders.

They continued their banter back and forth, hands moving quickly and gracefully. They began to talk about other signs that Mike didn't know. They had traveled outside the diner after paying, standing behind Mike's truck as they kept on their conversation.

"And how do you sign 'kiss'?" Mike asked, Eddie putting his curled fingers together and letting the pads of his pointer fingers touch. Mike nodded and soon began signing a sentence, "I want to kiss you so bad right now."

Eddie giggled and let a slight blush come to his face. He stepped closer to Mike and let one of his hands cup the taller teens' faces as the other one signed. "Please do."

And with that, they were kissing. Eddie had his hands wrapped around Mike's neck as the latter was pulling him closer by his waist. Their tongues slid together almost eagerly as they began to get horny. Eddie was borderline grinding on Mike as his cock began leaking precum inside his jeans.

"I know a place we can finish. Get in my car." Mike signed, both of the teens quickly getting in the car and beginning their unknown journey.

It was about 5 minutes later when Mike pulled up to a house just outside the city limits. They quickly got out and went inside. Mike was feeling for the stairs behind himself as he was pushed up by the eager brunette.

He reached behind himself, groping the wall as he looked for his door handle. He pulled away from Eddie and help up his pointer finger in a 'wait a minute' gesture. Mike turned to the wall and went into the room that was to the right of where they were.

Once the door was open, the pair went back to kissing and stumbling backwards. Their lips stayed connected as Mike lifted the brunette and laid hit gently on the bed. He then began kissing down his neck and helping him get rid of his shirt.

Not too long passed before both males were on Mike’s bed, naked and grinding their dicks together. Mike was ravishing in the sounds Eddie was letting flow through the room, though he wasn’t sure if Eddie even knew they were happening.

The brunette was quick to push Mike down on his back and straddle him. He looked over Mike’s body and watched as his chest raised and fell quickly. He leaned down and caught Mike’s bigger lips in a harsh kiss before he reached behind himself and began opening himself up.

Mike was quick to reach behind and add a finger beside Eddie’s two. He let the brunette keep his mouth occupied as he continued to help open him up. “Shit, hold on.” He said, pulling away and walking to his night stand.

Eddie was sitting on the bed, watching Mike dig through the top drawer. He soon stopped, turning around with a condom in hand. He opened the package and rolled the large rubber over his dick.

He got back to the bed and let Eddie climb back onto his lap. He grabbed the brunette’s waist and helped him slowly sink down on his dick. He watched as Eddie’s mouth opened wide, and a sigh of pleasure left his lips.

Mike helped him go up and down at a steady pace before it gradually got faster. He began lifting his hips to meet the thrusts, causing louder moans to come out of the smaller male. He marveled in the sounds and used them to drive his faster, deeper, into Eddie.

Eddie began tapping Mike on the neck, over and over, making the tan male look up and quirk an eyebrow. His silent question was soon answered when Eddie shot warm, thick cum onto Mike’s stomach and thighs.

Mike moaned at the sound and soon shot his own load into the condom. They stayed together, breathing deeply until they were steady again. Mike lifted the tired teen off his dick and gently placed him on the bed. He took off the condom and got a wet towel, cleaning the cum off himself then Eddie.

He laid down with the other, pulling him into a warm embrace. “That was amazing. Now I’m tired. Is it okay if I spend the night?” Eddie asked, looking up at the other.

“Yes, we just have to make sure we get up for school.” That got a groan from the other, making Mike laugh.

The next day at school, Mike walked into History and sat next to Stan. “Holy shit, it looks like you got mauled by a cat or a really determined sucker fish.” Stan commented, causing him to get hit in the arm lazily.

“You should see the other guy.”
