Chris POV

I wake up the next morning and shower and get dressed. I'm thinking sweats and a T-shirt today. I put on a pair of fuzzy socks and walk into the kitchen. Street is already in there and making coffee. He's wearing basketball shorts and that's it. I hum and walk over to the cabinet to get out the coffee cups as he pulls the creamer out of the fridge. I pour the coffee into our cups and hand him his. After we're done making our coffee I open the fridge and grab put bacon and eggs to start making breakfast. "Morning" street finally says. "Morning. How do you want you eggs cooked?" I ask as I lay the bacon in the frying pan. "Over easy" he replies. I nod my head and continue to cook. I can feel street staring at me. "So umm are we gonna talk about yesterday?" He asked. "What about it" I say. "Well I know I'm not the only one who felt it. And then you leaned on me and I just don't know." He says rambling. I sigh " it was nothing street we're just friends and that's it" I say. "Yeah ok" he replied. I didn't have to turn around to know he was disappointed I would be losing if I said I wasn't a little bit but we can't and he doesn't realize it's not that simple for me. I finish marking breakfast and we eat in silence. "Jim look it's not that easy as you make it out to be" I say. "Yeah ok don't worry about it I'm gonna go shower" he says and walks away. I watch him walk away and curse mentally. I really don't want to hurt him but I don't know what to do. I groan and sit on the couch.

Time jump. It's later in the day now maybe 5pm
Chris POV
I look up when I hear the door open it's street he's finally joining me after avoiding me all day. "Hey" I say as he walks into the kitchen. He just give me a wave. " Jim are you really gonna avoid me. I mean we're hear for the next 11 days together." I ask. He doesn't respond. " ok then act like a child there's pizza in the fridge if you hungry." I say and turn back to the tv. I change the channel to some cop show and start to watch it. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to act like an ass it's just after yesterday's thought.." he says trailing off. " Jim I'm sorry if I made you feel like that but this what ever it is between us can't happen" I say "yeah I get it" he says as he turns to the tv and eats his pizza. I curl my legs to my chest. My heart hurts for him but I just can't jeopardize my career for anyone I worked too hard for it.
