Chapter 11: Relationships & Beginnings

Kai and Cole sat in a coffee shop together silently. Cole had just finished telling Kai about what happened with Jay and Kai was thinking over what he'd just heard.

"You, my friend. Fucked up." Kai said flatly after taking a long sip of his coffee and Cole groaned as he pinched the brim of his nose. "I know that much! I just want to know what the hell is going on with me and how to fix it!" He complained and Kai just watched him for a second.

"Alright, let's play a game. I'll ask you a series of questions and I want you to answer them without thinking. Just give me the first answer that comes to mind." Kai said and Cole looked at him like he was stupid. "Just trust me ya bozo." Kai said in annoyance and Cole relented.

"Alright, favorite color?"

"Blue."

"Favorite song?"

"Close the circle."

"Favorite car?"

"Easy, a beautiful old school mustang convertible. I love the classics."

"Favorite music ganre?"

"Soft rock."

"Ideal eye color on a partner?"

"Blue. A nice and beautiful electric blue."

Kai began to smirk.
"Ideal hair color on a partner?"

"A nice soft caramel brown."

"Freckles or no freckles?"

"Freckles. Especially when peppered on the cheeks."

"Do you like fangs?"

"Oh, fangs are adorable."

"First word that comes to mind when I say blue?"

"Bluejay."

"First word that comes to mind when I say Jay?"

"Perfect."

Kai grinned.
"Cole, you're in love."

Cole paused as he registered what Kai just said. He was in love? Since when? With who? With Jay? Now that he thought about it, it made since.

"I... I can't... How could I have fallen in love?" Cole asked and Kai just smiled at him. "The heart wants what it wants Cole. Don't fight it or you'll regret it." Kai replied and Cole simply let his head hit the table.

"What am I supposed to do now?" Cole asked and Kai shrugged. "Make thangs righ. Go to him. Explain what was happening. Jay's a kind boy. He'll hear ya out." Kai answered softly. "But you best go and do it soon. Wait to long and he won't believe you."

Cole nodded and got up. "Alright. I'm gonna get going. Thanks for this." He said and Kai nodded. "No problem. Anytime."

Cole then left the shop and drove to Jay's building. He parked and went up to Jay's floor where he stood outside the door. Nervous. Would Jay even be home? Even if he was, would he even answer? Cole swallowed his worries and knocked on Jay's door. Nothing. He couldn't even hear anything inside. Could Jay not be home?
