Logan's POV
I park the car, stepping out and signing. "Its been a long while since I've been up here." I say, leaning against a rock.
We were up on a cliff overlooking the ocean. I always used to come up here to clear my mind or to think.
Patton steps out of the car, his eyes wide. "Logan... Its beautiful up here." He says, exasperatedly. I nod.
"Yeah. It brings back a lot of memories, good and bad. I came up here with my first love and without them... I came up here with my dad and without. He didn't die, but when I came out to my parents, they reacted... Poorly. Haven't seen them in years." I quickly wipe away the tears that were slowly falling down my face. "Sorry. I shouldn't be crying on our first date." I chuckle, sadly.
"No, Logan. Its okay... I'm sorry about your parents." I shake my head.
"I'm fine. Trust me... I brought champagne. Its in the trunk." I say, grabbing it. I pop the cork and grab two of the six plastic fancy cups, pouring the alcohol in them. I hand one to Patton and he chuckles, clinking his glass with mine.
We laughed the night away. We watched cars drive down the street. We made jokes, talked about books and movies, laughed at the seagulls fighting over a small rock by the ocean. We stayed on that ledge for so long, we saw the ocean turn from blue, to orange, to violet.
So there we sat, my feet dangling off the edge of the cliff and Patton relaxing in my arms as I played with his hair. We stayed in comfortable silence for a few minutes until he breaks it. "Logan..."
"Yes?"
"Do you want to know what those butterflies mean?" He asks.
I shake my head. "I already know what they mean."
"You do?" Patton asks.
"I know they mean... That I'm in love..." Patton looks up at me and smiles.
I gaze into his beautiful chocolatey eyes and connect our lips, feeling those butterflies explode inside of my stomach, their wings tickling my skin. I hold him close and smile into the kiss, feeling his nimble fingers tug at my hair slightly.
I break the kiss and smile down at him. He smiles back and I can't help but feel like I found what was missing.
I found him.
