Snow Days.

|Months Later|

Snow fell outside of Bryce's window and he just sat back and watched it while sipping on a cup of hot chocolate. His blue eyes was focused on the kids outside his home until they jerked to his door which creaked open. His mother stood with a plate of cookies and at first Bryce granted her a smile but once he seen a figure move behind her it faded.

"Bryce, I hope you don't mind. I invited this young man in since he was looking for you."

Bryce's eyes fell onto Ryan who was wearing his bunny hoodie with a grin plastered on his face, he sat his cup down. "No it's fine mom, thanks." Bryce played it off and she just nodded before sitting the plate down on the table. "Thank you miss McQuaid." Ryan thanked her before she closed the door then he turned to Bryce. "I uh, hope you don't mind. I was in the neighborhood and thought I'd stop by." Bryce shook his head and looked up at Ryan with a raised brow, "How do you know where I live?"

"Uh, Jonathan showed me once..I pass by here everyday on my way to school."

Bryce kept his eye locked on Ryan as of searching for a real answer but after he made Ryan clear his throat he decided to believe him. "Well, thanks for checking in Ohm." Bryce Abe a warm smile as he took a cookie from the plate. "I don't get many visitors anymore." Ryan sat on Bryce's bed and shrugged. "I'd visit you every day if I could but I think you'd freak out."

Bryce nibbled on his cookie before sipping his drink, holding the liquid between his tongue. He swallowed. "You can take your shoes off Ryan. If you're staying a little longer that is," Bryce glanced down at the boys shoes before looking back up and seeing him do the same. Ryan began to take them off. "So what're you doing?"

It was small talk Ryan was trying to create and Bryce could tell he wanted to talk to him so it wouldn't be as awkward. Bryce, however, just watched Ryan until their eyes locked. He could get lost in them if he wanted but he knew better than to let the brunette win; he tore his gaze away. "I was just staring out the window but.."

"I came along." Ryan finished with a smirk. Bryce smiled as to let him know he was indeed right. "I knew it."

"Mhm.. So what do you want to do?" Bryce stood from his seat and walked over to his bookshelf as he asked Ryan this. "I don't really have much."

"We could talk?"

"We could but what about?"

"School?"

"Great subject." Bryce was wing sarcastic and Ryan could tell but he did nothing but laugh. It was one that held amusement.  They had known each other for only a few months and Bryce could already read Ryan like an open book which was a win for him. They had become close within the few months spent together but so have the anonymous writer and himself. Bryce could've done a chart on how similar both males were but never would he believe Ohm is the writer who is madly in love with him.

Never in a million years.

Maybe it was the fact that Ryan could have anyone he wanted in the school or outside of it. Could be the fact that Ryan was popular and Bryce was below average on both the good looking chart and the popular chart. He couldn't tell you why he believed he didn't have a chance with the older male but it pained him to know that one day Ryan would leave..

"Bryce?"

Bryce snapped back to reality and noticed the guitar in Ryan's hand causing him to raise a brow in confusion, "I asked if you could play for me." He nodded a little and took the guitar in his hand.

He began to play the song he heard from David, it was one he had come to learn by heart for his Irish friend. Bryce took a deep breath.

"We broke
Everything that was right
We both enjoyed a good fight
And we sewed
All the holes we had to breathe
To make the other one leave.

And I loved the way you looked at me
And I miss the way you made me feel
When we were alone
When we were alone.

And I'll shiver like I used to
And I'll leave him just for you
And I'll shiver like I used to
Just for you."

Ryan found himself smiling as Bryce sung. He was watching the blonde closely as he played the guitar and let his voice outweigh the silence that had crossed the two earlier. Ryan layed back on the bed and closed his eyes as he listened. To him it was something to be remembered.

"And we stole
Every moment we had to make the other one feel bad
And we hoped that we could be what we knew
It never turn out to be real.

And I loved the way you looked at me
And I miss the way you made me feel
When we were alone
When we were alone.

And I'll shiver like I used to
And I'll leave him just for you
And I'll shiver like I used to
Just for you.

And if we turn back time
Could we learn to live right
And if we turn back time
Could we learn to live right
And if we turn back time
Could we learn to live right
And if we turn back time
Could we learn.

And I'll shiver like I used to
And I'll leave him just for you
And I'll shiver like I used to
Just for you.

Like I used to."

Bryce ended the song and watched Ryan lean up slowly from his bed with a smile on his lips. "Bryce that was amazing." He complements. "This has been the best snow day ever man..thank you."
