Somewhere Over The Rainbow {Micah}

[RUFIO BOVIDAE]

Somewhere over the rainbow, blue birds fly. There's a dream that you dreamed of once in a lullaby-y. Rufio's fingers strummed the notes on his old guitar, picking up every slight wrong tuning in the silence of his vegetable patch. He frowned and tried again, crossing and uncrossing his legs in his nervousness. He was playing a show at the local coffee shop to a lot of people and he wanted to impress them. His music career could start from there. He needed to get this song perfect.

It wasn't as if he could pass of any mistakes as creative licence, this was a well known song, one of the most famous in the world. He needed to get it right. He was better off with his original songs, 'Sugar' had received good praise form those that had heard it. But this was certainly a lot harder.

Biting his lip he laid his guitar down gently on the floor, leaning forward to pick a tomato from his plant and placing it on his tongue. Sighing slightly he leant back on the dry dusty soil, looking up at the clouds. He just wished someone was there with him, to keep him from getting lonely.

Picking up his guitar once more he beginning singing again, quieter than before, not wanting anyone to really hear him. He'd lost the muse for it now and, as he looked over his vegetables, he suddenly felt lost. How had he ended up so alone? Maybe it would just be best if he went back to Canada, Vegas clearly wasn't for him.

Micah sighed heavily as he walked through the quad, on to his next class. Theater use to be his favorite time of the day, but right now, he just wasn’t feeling so up to it. Actually, he wasn’t feeling up to anything. He’d even dressed carelessly. Micah grabbed his backpack’s strap and pulled it tighter to him as he walked. He was starting to think about trying Lake Mead again for Rufio, debating in his head whether or not to go.

Micah wasn’t really paying attention to where he was going until he bumped into so some girl. Immediately like some kind of sneak attack, she turned around with a smile and said in the most sugar coated voice “Hey. Would you like to buy a breast cancer awareness bracelet?” What was wrong with this chick? Another fake face. Pulling out his wallet he gave a slight smile and pulled out a five dollar bill handing it to her and taking the bracelet. “Keep the change.” He mumbled before he began walking again, then he got this random thought about the allotments.

Sliding the bracelet onto his wrist, Micah turned on his heel and started walking in that direction. Mentally he crossed his fingers while he approached, then he heard Rufio’s voice singing. Stopping, Micah smiled and let him finish before walking up next to him, dropping his bag, and laying down next to him. “It sounded good to me, but then again. You always sound good to me so, I don’t know if that makes a difference.” Micah said watching the clouds as well.

Rufio sat up straight the moment he heard Micah's voice. Something he hadn't heard in a while. He blushed as he looked down, placing his guitar beside him gently before he turned to look back at Micah who was clearly more interested in the sky. What are you doing here? he asked, frowning slightly. It wasn't like Micah to come to the allotments, the only time Rufio had ever seen him there was when...well it didn't do to dwell on the past.

The long-haired boy turned away from Micah and leant back on his elbows. Don't you have a girlfriend to see? he asked, a little more bitterly than he intended. How could someone move on so easily? When Rufio had practically poured his heart out, all he got in return was Micah ignoring him and finding himself a girlfriend. There was clearly something that Rufio didn't understand when it came to relationships.

Something was just right about Rufio’s presence that made everything feel okay even if it wasn’t. Micah felt more at peace right now, laying in the dirt, next to him, but then he heard the difference in Rufio’s voice which brought him back to reality. Shrugging, he turned his head and looked at him. “I’ve been looking for you..that’s what I’m doing here. Is finding you.”

Micah’s eyes stayed on him though. He noticed a unhappy look upon his face and it made him frown, and then bam. That hurt. Good one Rufio. Micah shook his head and pulled himself up to sit and look directly into Rufio’s eyes. “Yeah. That didn’t work out so well.” He mumbled before giving it a slight shrug as if he was over it. “But, I wanna apologize.” Micah looked down and picked at a piece of grass before looking back up and sighing “Rufio, I was a coward. Simon was right about that much. I shouldn’t have ran away like I did, and I’m sorry. I’m sorry for avoiding you. I’m sorry for breaking your heart, and you have every right to be mad at me.” He said letting a pause of silence make it’s way in. “I wasn’t trying to blame you for anything either. I blame Simon, yes. Cause he’s a dick. But..what can you do about that?”

Now Micah called for the awkward silence to make him impatiently wait for however Rufio would act.

Didn't work out so well? Rufio mimicked, turning to face the boy frowning, Breaking hearts has become quite a habit for you, I see he scorned, shaking his head and turning away slightly, looking out over the vegetable patches, as if deciding what he needed to start growing next. Instead he was trying to listen to what Micah was saying without losing his temper. Which didn't happen very often.

He took a deep breath, looking down at the floor before he spoke, choosing his works carefully. I don't blame Simon, for this. Rufio said turning to face Micah again, But I accept your apology, even thought it was probably my fault. I shouldn't have kissed you, it was unnecessary. But I didn't think you would believe me if I just told you.

Rufio absent-mindedly dusted down his jeans as he looked back over the allotments, So what do we do now? he asked Micah without looking at the other boy. Rufio had been thinking a lot over the last few weeks - maybe he didn't want to actually date Micah, maybe he could just be quietly in love without any hassle of being together. Would that even work?

Rufio’s next remarks and comments came out like steel punches right to Micah’s heart. Did he really have to be this way? All Micah did was make one mistake and walk away from a kiss. Next thing he knew his whole life was down the toilet. Yeah. It was Simon’s fault actually. How could it not be? Micah walked away from a kiss, and Simon decided to act like a child and run his mouth. Micah was so sick of hearing it. So sick of hearing that it was all his fault, over and over. Did people ever stop? He had ears, he can hear it. So, what? Are you some kind of repeating toy.

Locking his jaw, Micah’s eyes trailed down to the ground trying to hide how he was feeling right now, and it was tired. He wasn’t necessarily anger, it was that he was tired of this. Why couldn’t anyone just try and get over things? He did with Anna, and yes. He got his ass in a lot of drama and trouble with that, but he still tried. Closing his eyes a moment he felt the cool breeze blow over his skin and hair then opened his eyes now calm again.

“I don’t know, Rufio.” That’s all he said for a moment trying to gather back the ache in his heart and happy thoughts. Why was it so easy for Rufio to do that to him? To just knock the happiness out of him just with a few words to leave him guilty. Now he began to think really about his feelings for Rufio. Tilting his head upward Micah’s coca eyes looked upon Rufio’s “I’d offer to help with the potatoes but…” He finished off with a smile.

Rufio smiled softly at Micah's attempt at making the situation seem less tense. He nodded and looked out to his vegetable patch scanning the area to see if there was anyone else around - he was almost expecting a camera crew to jump out and reveal this was all a big joke. But, of course, no one came. He twirled his hair around his fingers, running his tongue slowly over his bottom lip before he turned, almost half-heartedly, towards the other boy.

Don't worry about it, I can handle it, he said, hoping Micah caught the double meaning in his words. He respected that Micah was probably never going to fall in love the same way he had, and that was fine. He had even begun to drift away from his fantasy of finding someone to be with, that maybe he would just go caravanning on his own. He didn't need anyone else, did he?

Pulling his knees up to his chest he rested his chin on his legs, closing his eyes for a moment. I seem to have ruined our friendship - I apologise. It wasn't my intention. But you seemed to have lost all respect for yourself when you slept with Lacey - or whoever else it was - I guess I just wanted you to know that someone still loved you. That you didn't have to be this 'hot-shot' man-whore to get respect. But I guess you can do whatever you want, I was wrong to think I had any effect on the situation.

For some reason, Micah did not want to look up into the eyes of Rufio. He really didn't. Ru always had that power over him that with a certain hurt of a look, Micah's heart would ache, and with a certain tone in his voice, Micah would feel the ache again. It was pretty obvious what this all was to Micah, and it was a shame that it took going through this mess to know. To Micah, Rufio was most important. That could explain why through-out this whole mess, Micah could only think of how Ru would react to all of this. That was the only thing that mattered because well...He loved him.

Once Micah had admitted this to himself, he really didn't know how to explain it or go about doing it. Instead he inhaled a breathe of fresh air and looked up at Ru for the speech he was giving. So much Micah already wanted to interrupt and correct on, but he waited patiently. Though the word of "man-whore" made his teeth grind. Some people needed to get over themselves, really. Sleeping with two girls, did not mean you were a man whore. And one being your freaking girlfriend.

"Ru..I mean Rufio." Micah cleared his throat and now looked at Rufio. "First off, I'm not a man whore. It'd be different if I was like Simon Chapman, but I slept with two girls, Lacey and Anna who was my girlfriend at the time." Woo. That felt good to get off the chest. "Also..You didn't do anything. I just think that you were hurt so you took some things to heart, and I didn't mean it that way. As for Simon, to me, it's like he took the advantage to "be there" for you when you were hurt. And last but certainly not least. You played the biggest role in my way of thinking, what you don't understand was I was worrying more about me and you than anyone else, and I guess it took me this long to figure out that.."

Rufio smirked and shook his head, looking away from Micah as he reached into his pocket and pulled out a cigarette. Lighting it up and inhaling slowly as he listened to the other boy speaking. He didn't interrupt, in fact he didn't say anything for a while. Looking out over the vegetable patch once more, trying to process what Micah was saying.

Why does it always come back to Simon? he asked, rolling the cigarette between his fingers. He wasn't expecting an answer, Rufio honestly didn't care about what Micah thought of Simon, or what Simon thought of Micah. It was irrelevant. Turning back to Micah he let his tongue slip over his bottom lip before putting the cigarette back in his mouth.

Was Micah really going to go there? With the 'I was thinking of you' bullshit? Did he think Rufio was stupid enough to fall for it - maybe he was. Maybe he wanted to be in love so badly that even a bunch of lies was better than nothing. If you were so worried about me, why didn't you try and sort this problem? Why was your first instinct to find a girl and prove you didn't love me? he asked after a moments silence, blowing a few smoke rings to try and distract himself.

Looking at the floor he finished his cigarette and stubbed it out in the soil, getting the earth under his fingernails and on his hands. It was soothing, like home. Where he belonged - outside in the fresh air. Still, you know that I'll still be here he began, looking over to Micah and flashing the boy a smile, when you run out of other people to charm.

It wasn't a criticism, more a playful joke to try and pull the conversation out of the gloomy pit it had fallen into. He continued to smile as crossed his legs, no longer upset at that had happened - at least Micah knew how he felt now, and he didn't have to think about it. Rufio would hide his feelings as best as he could to make sure Micah was happy. But that was a small price to pay.

[MICAH RODRIGUEZ]

This is getting ridiculous. Micah thought as he listened to Rufio. Sure, Micah understood he had hurt Rufio, but Ru would just not let it go for a second, and Micah guessed he shouldn't, since he, himself, did deserve it. Sighing heavily Micah's eyes shot up at the sky "Everyone makes mistakes, Rufio." he mumbled. "And I've already said I'm sorry.."

Fuck, what should I do now? I'm not good at this. There was only one thing he could really think of doing to see what they both were really made of together. One thing, that would trigger any kind of reaction from the both of them. Here goes nothing..Or everything. Closing his eyes for a moment he told himself. In the short distance, Micah turned himself up onto his knees looking over Rufio for a brief moment and then going for it. He'd leaned down to Ru's level, and kissed him. Lips hard on. Micah wasn't running away this time, hopefully Ru wasn't running either.


Notes: I'm sorry I have no muse :/

and besides I don't mind waiting - Rufio began half watching as Micah got onto his knees. Wait...what are you-? he mumbled before he felt Micah's lips pressed against his own. His eyes flickered shut; a hand slipped up from the floor to Micah's shoulder and then around the back of his neck, willing the boy on. This was certainly a lot better than their first kiss had been.

Rufio added a little pressure to their kiss before finally pulling away half an inch to catch his breath. Wow... he whispered, running his tongue along his bottom lip and slipping his hand back against Micah's chest.
He looked up at the other boy and smiled softly, I forgive you he said against Micah's lips before he kissed him again, adding more pressure as he leant back on the soil, letting Micah take control. Why had this taken so long?

Ru was so much more different than Lacey and Anna. Micah, of course with his personality and human nature he carries, he cared about the two of them as well, but he had much more concern for Ru. Maybe it was because he knew Ru wouldn't off and fuck his brother at any moment of the day, and in the process he could still be faithful to Micah as well as satisfied. Micah trusted him more than anyone, and that was a very important thing.

As Rufio stated that he forgave Micah, Micah's eyes remained closed with his forehead pressed to Ru's . Smiling brightly he mumbled "Good." in return, then followed Ru's wants and kissed him back with more intense passion, grabbing onto Ru's sides and pushing him back against the soil, his lips planted a few stray kisses to his chin, his jawline, and his neck then back to his mouth. Once he gets started...he cant stop.

[RUFIO BOVIDAE]

Rufio had never thought anything could feel like this. The way his stomach was turning in anxious knots, his fingers shaking slightly from nerves but still feeling higher than anything in the world. When Micah's lips trailed down his neck, Rufio couldn't help but sigh contentedly as his teeth grazed over his bottom lip. Rufio allowed Micah to kiss him for what seemed like hours, when really it was only a few moments, before he pulled away.

Looking up at Micah he blushed, a hand reaching up to push some of the other's hair out of his eyes. Micah, he breathed slowly, pulling the other down for another quick kiss. I-...I want, he began, planting more kisses on Micah's soft lips, I want you to fuck me, he said softly, shocked that those words had come out of his mouth.

He didn't care that they were outside, no one came to the allotments at this time of day anyway - he was the only green fingered student to care about his vegetables. Besides, he was a free spirit, he might as well lose his virginity where he belonged. His fingers slipped from Micah's neck and down under the boy's sweater, pulling the garment from the other's body. Sitting up slightly he trailed light lazy kisses down Micah's neck and over his shoulders, not wanting to waste any more time. It was now or never, as far as Rufio was concerned.

When Micah was gently nudged away from Rufio. Confusion set in. It wasn't that Micah wasn't sure if Rufio did or did not want to have sex, but as to why not. Maybe he was insecure and needed a private place for his first time. Who knew? Heavy exhales breaths ran out of Micah's parted lips as he rose up hovering over the boy's body. His hands gripped the soil and grass tightly, sure of dirt being under his fingernails, as he cursed himself in his head for moving to fast. Just as Micah was about to speak about how sorry he was, Rufio gave a sweet gesture of moving his hair out of his eyes, the big wad of it needed to be cut. His eyebrows came together as he watched the other boys eyes in wonder and then kissed him back before returning to the look of curiosity.

I want you to fuck me.

The words came unexpectedly to Micah's ears. This was why he played them a good three times throughout his head. Positive that his face showed his dark brown eyes widen slightly from the desired request. He only had a few seconds to pull himself together before the other boy already had Micah's sweater off and his lips to Micah's bare tan warm skin. Micah's hands gripped at the other boys sweater with eagerness, keeping his neck craned as he pulled it up and over his head. Again, he pushed him lightly back down, and leaned over his body kissing his lips briefly.

The boy wasn't the type to ask if someone was sure of having sex. So instead of asking, his eyes flickered up to Rufio's as he began trailing soft kisses down his chest and stomach, every now and then nibbling with a seductive look upon his face. Mid stomach, his fingers fumbled with the button on Rufio's jeans, quickly undoing them.

Rufio was worried he'd taken it too far, but as Micah helped him out of his sweater he smiled, arms stretching out above his head. Closing his eyes he felt his toes curling as Micah's lips grazed over his bare chest. He was sure Micah knew how inexperienced he was, this having been his first...boyfriend?

Was that what they were now? Boyfriends? Or were they just going to have sex and then...nothing. Rufio sighed, he didn't want this to fizzle out...to put him in a more awkward position with his best friend. Slowly he reached down and pulled Micah back up, kissing him with far more passion than he had been before. I love you, he said, his voice low and needy.

It wasn't long before his own fingers were pulling off Micah's pants, he would worry about Micah's feelings afterwards.

* * *

Rufio couldn't help but have a smile on his face as he pulled his underwear back over his thin hips, wincing slightly at the bizarre feeling. Leaning back on the soil, he grazed his bottom lip with his teeth. That was...incredible, he sighed, running a hand down over his bare chest that was still trying to calm down his fast breathing.
