Arlo was left there alone
His best friend loved him.
Arlo loved him too.
And he even offered to plan out his whole wedding, and the sad thing was he didn't complain.
Arlo stood there.
He thought back on what Elaine said.

"Arlo I'm A lesbian!"
He was shook
She was gay?
Not that he had a problem with that but it's just now she realized it?

"It's just seeing the girls in those dresses, then theirs Seraphina, she's so beautiful and-" Arlo shushed her.

"It's alright Elaine, I understand you want to call off the wedding," he wasn't very upset.

"Your not pissed off?"

Arlo laughed. "No, not really. I mean yeah its hurts, but I'll be fine."

She sighed in relief.
"What about John?"

"...what?"
"You and John...didn't y'all like, date or something?"
"N-no..."
She cocked her head to the side.
"Well.....would you date him?"

Arlo was taken aback.
Him and John?
If he was being honest with himself, he had seen John naked tons of times, but at the back of his head, a little voice always nagged him for more closure. More warmth. Him and John have always been close. They drink from the same bottle, ate from the same plate, cooked together, cleaned together, sometimes showered together and when they had sleepovers they would sleep in the same bed and cuddle. They were that close. So people naturally assumed they were dating.

But the more that he thought about it,
the more the thought of dating John seemed so appealing.

"You should go talk to him, your blushing like crazy!" She giggled and nudged my shoulder.

I laughed and stood up. "You coming?" She shook her head. I nodded and left her there with her thoughts.

~*~

I shook my head and face palmed.
Why didn't I just say I love you too?
Would he believe me?
Or think it was a joke?

"Hey man," A voice said from behind me. I turned around and it was Isen. "You, ah, heard all that didn't you?" I groaned. He nodded.

"I was the only one who knew," he sighed, taking some steps closer to me.

"Do you love him back?"
"...yes, yes I do...but for 10  Years? He's been waiting on me for 10 Years?"
"Pfft, yeah. The things you'd do for love am I right?"
"Yeah no shit sherlock."
"What are you waiting for dude?!"
"Huh?"
"Go get your man!"

Isen smacked my back. I ran off to find John, hoping to god that he still wanted me.

~*~

The sky was a beautiful gradient of pink, orange and light purple. But John had no time to admire the sight. He was too busy wiping the tears from his eyes and drowning in his own self pity.

He really said it. After 10 years he finally spilt his guts. Now what?
Arlo might still be getting married today and he might have ruined their friendship.

He sipped his Hennessey once again.
He removed his coat and tie and flung them onto a nearby tree.

He took off his shoes and unbuttoned his shirt.

He stepped into the water.
It was cold. Well what did he expect?
He walked him up to his knees.
He breathed in the salty air.

He wondered where he would go after this.
Maybe he should move away?
Move jobs?
He saw a ad for models, he had a very good body, maybe he should apply.

He drained his cup of hard alcohol and threw it back onto the shore onto his cloths.

He sat in the water, watching the sun dip over the horizon.

"You shouldn't litter Johnny boy," a voice chided behind him.

John turned my head.
Arlo was taking off his jacket, shoes and unbuttoning his shirt.

John stood up, shaking himself off.

Arlo sighed. "John, wait please!"

"I don't wanna hear it Arlo!"
"You don't even know what I was gonna say!"
"Like i said, stay away!"

They bickered back and forth, til Arlo gripped his wrist and spun him around.

"Arlo wha-"

"John listen to me!"

John tried to push him away, they ended up going further into the water, up to their waists.

"Arlo please, just..."
"Just what?"
"Go back to Elaine, please..."
"Why should I, huh?"
"Don't you love her?"

Arlo gripped his waist and pulled him closer.

"No, you idiot! I thought That if someone had a forehead as big as yours there would be some smarts up there!"
John scoffed at his statement.
He knew to get on Johns nerves well.

"Then why'd you come after me dumbfuck?"

Arlo rolled his eyes, it often amazed him how John could be so oblivious sometimes.
John turned his head away.
Arlo turned him back by his chin.

"Hey Stupid, I love you!"

That caught John by surprise
The other thing was

Arlo kissed him
And he kissed right back
No hesitation.

It was sweet, slow and passionate
Could this day get and better?

They fell under the water
That didn't stop them from deepening the kiss even further.
John bite Arlos lip and slipped his tongue inside.
They fought for dominance, but Arlo won

John hooked his legs around Arlos hips and wrapped his arms around his neck as Arlo lifted the both of them to the surface.

John ran his hands through Arlos now soaking wet hair.

Arlo brushed the ravenette's locks out of his face.

"So how do you feel then?"

John faked confusion.
"Hmm, well..."
Arlos panicked a bit.
"Well what?"
"Well..."

John kissed him on his nose
"I love you too asshole."
