Nathan felt more excited about school, he hadn't expected that having a boyfriend would make him so happy. He finally understood why Vale was always so happy and excited every time Gerry had practice. He was also happy to be around Zane.
Nathan learned about Zane's activities, which he had never expected. Zane often spent time at the gym after school on days when they didn't have lessons.
There were two gyms at their school that students could use. Zane often returned to school when night fell and the gym was empty.
Today, Zane looked at Nathan with a worried expression. Nathan was moving stiffly, lowering himself into his chair with a wince and shifting constantly to find an angle that didn't hurt.
Zane didn't say anything at first, but his eyes never left Nathan during the lecture. He watched the way Nathan's brow furrowed every time he had to adjust his position.
When the bell rang for lunch, Nathan stayed put.
