"And Mum, he had the most beautiful eyes,"

"But I thought you had a crush on Ashton? I thought that he was the entire reason you figured out that you were gay?" she stated. I sighed.

"I do, but I just can't get this boy out of my mind. We sat and talked for hours with ease, Mum. It was amazing," I told her. she chuckled.

"You sound like you have a bit of an issue here, my dear. My advise to you is to follow your heart. Don't split it in two. I'll be home in a few hours. Tell John I will be home shortly. I can't wait to meet this boy," She says. We say our goodbyes and I hang up the phone.

"Hey Mike," Ashton says. I jump because I didn't know that he was standing there.

"Hey Ash, uh, how long were you standing there?" I ask nervously. He shrugs and comes and sits in the cair on the corner of my room.

"'I just can't get this boy out of my mind'," he said. My entire body froze, my eyes widened, and I got really nervous all of a sudden. 

I gulped and spoke,"You caught me,"

"Why didn't you tell us, Mikey?" He stated. I shrugged.

"I'm still sorting through some feelings," I stated and looked at my hands. I played with my thumbs a bit before I looked back up at Ashton. He looked me in the eyes and my stomach turned. From guilt? From awe? I didn't know. 

"You can trust us with anything. We would never judge you on something like this. Especialy not me," He said. I gave him a confused look.

"What do you mean?" I asked. He looked me in the eyes and spoke quietly.

"I'm bisexual, Mike. I have been for a while now. I didn't know how to tell you guys, just like you," he stood and made his way towards me. I gulped and scooted back on the bed a bit. He walked closer and crouched down in front of me. I could feel my hands get sweaty and my stomach turn.

"But I'm not afraid anymore, and you shouldn't be either," he whispered and leaned closer to me, placing his forehead against mine. I breathed out nervously and licked my lips. I looked down at his eyes and saw nothing but truth in them. He wasn't pretending. 

"Okay," I said. He smiled and leaned in the rest of the way. All I could feel was fire throughout my entire body.

And guilt in my mind.

"So, you really are gay?" she asked. I nodded. She smiled.

"I knew it," She said. I rolled my eyes as she jumped up from her bed.

"I knew it, I knew it!" She danced around her room as I laughed. I was in tears on her bed watching her dance absolutely horribly.

"So," She said, "Who's the lucky guy who gets to say that my Ran Gosling has a crush on him?" she asked. This is the part where I get nervous.

"Well, you see.." I trailed off. She still looked eager and I sighed.

"Your brother," I said. She looked gobsmacked.

"You-Michael- what?" She said. I shrugged.

"I figured that it would be Ashton b-because of what you said on the phone the other day." She said. I shook my head. She rolled her eyes.

"Wow, how cliche is this. best friend has a crush on my brother," She said. I scoffed.

"This isn't as bad as having a crush on your brother's best friend," I pointed. She shrugged.
