They met a couple of times. A lot of times, even.
Even though Set had a lot to do with school and chores at home, they somehow found the time to meet at least once a week. In the park, most of the time. When they were at Set’s place and the parents were home Jake only got nervous, so laughingly they had decided that it would be better if they met outside.
But this one time, they happened to be at Jake’s place.
Compared to the Hargreaves’ manor the house was a poor excuse of a home, but Set seemed to like it a lot. It was just a simple, small, yellow house. A house like everyone else’s.
They sat down in Jakes room, on his bed, since he only had one chair. That chair was halfway pushed in under a white, old writing desk, carrying a big pile of clothes.
“I’m sorry my room is a mess", Jake sighed. He started to pick up some music papers from the floor, but Set hurried to break in.
“No, no it’s ok. I like it."
“It’s stuff everywhere…" Jake gave him an uncertain glance. The boy lived in a perfectly tidied house. He’d expected someone like Set to crinkle his nose and wonder why they didn’t put things in order. But on the other hand, Set wasn’t the typical spoiled-son-with-a-rich-family. He was so gentle, and open. Hell, he was sure the kid would’ve been happy even if the house had been without a roof.
“It doesn’t matter", Set smiled. “It’s cozy here."
“Thank you", Jake said, smiling lightly. He sat down next to Set again, leaning his hands on his thighs.
Hundreds of thoughts ran through his head. Should he offer something to eat or drink, would they go out soon instead of sitting here, should he ask if he wanted to do something special, like video games, or… anything. Jake scratched his neck. Not that he was nervous anymore, but there was always a kind of pressure when he took somebody home for the first time.
The times they’d met when they were outdoors there had always been something to do. Just strolling through the park, going through every shop in the mall after stuff that could be interesting, anything. In Jakes room there wasn’t much you could do. Except for talking.
“So…" Set started, looking at one of the music sheets on the floor. “You said you played the guitar, right?"
“That’s right." Jake nodded to the left corner of the room, where a black acoustic guitar hung on the wall. “My favorite."
“What a beauty", Set smiled. “You have more than one?"
“Yeah, I still have my first guitar. And a Gibson Les Paul, too. Bought it recently,
actually."
“Oh… I really know nothing about guitars. I just think they’re a grace for the eye to look at, so to say." Set laughed a little. “It’s a pretty instrument."
“Indeed." Jake couldn’t hold back a smile. Set’s way with words, how he expressed himself, it was so cute in some way. “You play the piano, right?"
“Yes, I do." Set nodded. “Mother taught me when I was just a kid. It’s been something I’ve grown up with. Still learning, too."
“I saw that huge, black concert piano in the dining room when I was at your place…"
“She’s mine", Set said with a proud smile.
“
Yours?" Jake said, surprised. That concert grand piano looked like it was worth more than his family’s little house.
“Yes. Mother bought it for me when I was just five, so that she could teach me how to play, and so I could take it with me when it was my time to move out", Set explained.
“She would have done the same for Juliet, but she was more fascinated by the violin anyway."
“I see", said Jake, still a bit chocked. To think someone had so much money they could buy a concert piano for their five-year-old son. Wow.
“Ridiculously expensive, I know", Set said with almost an embarrassed smile. “Anyhow…"
“Mm. I wonder what they think of me, by the way." Jake frowned slightly. “Your parents, I mean."
“I don’t know…" Set tilted his head slightly to the side, seemed to think about it.
“Not that I’ve said much more than hi and goodbye, but. Anyway. First impressions and such." Jake cleared his throat. “I mean, I look like quite the douchebag."
“You don’t", Set giggled, shaking his head. Then he became more serious. “My parents are quite… narrow-minded. They don’t like anything that’s different."
“I almost guessed that", said Jake with a vague smile.
“It’s not like they’re mean or anything", Set sighed. “If you’re nice to them they’re going to be nice to you. It’s just that they’re quite quick with being prejudicious, and well… I guess they don’t really like anyone. If they’re not as rich and well-mannered as themselves."
Jake watched Set as he spoke. He spoke in a lower, more serious, voice now. Like the subject was something that bothered him more than he wanted to confess. This all remembered Jake about when they met the first time, in the park. When Set had been upset, with all right, saying sorry over and over even though he had nothing to apologize for.
It felt like that kid carried something too heavy for his own shoulders. It made Jake worry.

Åh, underbar bild, underbar text! Så flödande och fin!
Hittade ett litet ord i meningen "He would have expected him to crinkle his nose and wonder why they didn’t put things in order, or something like it." Kanske bättre med something like that?
Och så "The times they’d met when they were outside..." Kanske bättre med bara "the times they'd met outdoors"?
Bara förslag! :o)
Och elaka barn, du slutade med en cliff-hanger! Nu måste du ju skriva mer snart så man får veta hur det går! :D
