Prologue. Just the set off for the rest of the story.
A/N: this is basically a Bare fanfic in which Peter reminisces about all the firsts he had with his now dead lover, Jason, and the lasts. those will be in chapters to come, but let me know what you think of the plot line! constructive criticism is HIGHLY appreciated. POST BARE. Rated M for Boy-Boy slash. I mean the first time they have sex is bound to be detailed! don't like that, then you wouldn't know what Bare: A Pop Opera is, now would you? Criticism on the relation ship itself is only accepted if it has to do with writing them wrong. If it's about a boy-boy thing, don't bother me about that please. But if youre a Bare fan, ENJOY!

The dry air blew the tree's outside of his dorm. Summer was starting. People were sullenly packing, preparing to leave. Leaving their past for their future… never to return to this school. Never to be forced to remember all that had happened in this 'holy' place. It was colder in the building than it was outside, down to wintry climates. It was overwhelming, in fact, with every single air conditioners running on high throughout the almost empty building.
Even with half the school gone, they're still wasting this much energy, Peter thought to himself. He wasn't one to talk, his own personal AC up the highest it would go, including the two fans he had on opposing sides of the room. One was his, the other belonged to his room mate… his dead room mate…
Peter shook that thought away. He didn't want to dwell on the bad… he just couldn't help it. How could he? How can he not dwell on the fact that his best friend died just a week ago? How is he supposed to go on, knowing that it was all his fault.
Peter lay in the covers of the abnormally frozen sheets, waiting for precipitation to land on his nose in the form of a snow flake. It was just so cold. It was the temperature… he was used to that in this point of every year. But the fact that during this time… Jason had always kept him warm. In numerous, unconventional ways, by the way. Now as he lay in the bed in the furthest corner of the room… Jason's bed… instead of Jason's calming presence, all he could feel was the constant chill up his spine; and not the kind he welcomed with the thought of Jason.
But Peter remained exactly where he was. He would do anything to stay out of everyone's sight… and anything to continuously stay enveloped in Jason's scent and spirit – no matter how cold and dead that spirit may have been.
"Stubborn asshole," Michael could hear Jason saying now as he always had. Whenever Peter was cold at any point, Jason always cuddled with him. Once he was warm however, he refused to move. Jason never minded, obviously, being that both of them loved the close proximity, though it did cause certain 'problems' to emerge. Peter laughed inwardly at that. Where do you think the 'unconventional methods' of warmth started? Neither of them got sleep on those nights. Or any night, really.
But the only replacement to that constant warmth was Jason's sheets. Peter could still feel Jason's ragged breathing as nightmares plagued him during the night. Every time he woke up from one, he grabbed Peter's face, kissing him forcefully. He poured every bad feeling he had into those kisses, and even though they made Peter uncomfortable, he'd do anything to take away Jason's pain. Because in those kisses, Peter felt Jason's fear of losing Peter… who was so obviously his.
Now, after everything was buried with Jason's body, all Peter could do was lay in Jason's bed (where he had always spent all his free time anyway), and inhale that smell of citrus and the sweet elixir of his cologne, which forced him to remember all of their firsts… and lasts…

I'm still typing the other chapters, but i hope i can take on the characters the best i can! : D let me know if im not being Peter-y enough, especially in the future. I always have trouble with intimite scenes being two characters at the same time, and Peter and Jason are VERY different, so i dont want to switch personalities during it. hahah. let me knoww!
