This might be a little personal..... when you guys add my book to your reading list I not only get the notification but I can also see the name of reading list you guys added it too and let me tell you some of them are so funny. The ones that take the cake for me are "the dark and twisted shit" and "interesting *cue evil face*. There are so many others that made me smile as well but I think about those two every day.

Also guys I want to change my writing style so future chapters won't be written from characters point of view if that makes sense, I just need to read more examples where the story is written like that and I'll start putting out chapters much faster.

Guys I know this chapter has been long a waited but so many things have happened from my job, school and a bunch of other things I can't even get into right now. Without further ado please enjoy!!!




Jack's POV
John and I were in his room. I sat at his desk chair while I watched him pack for this lame school we both have to go to together. Which when you think about it doesn't make sense but at the same time conversion camp doesn't make sense either, it's like 'you know what would be a good idea if we got all the gay kids together and made them camp
together for a couple months while we fix them'.

It makes no sense when you really think about it. "Can you pass me that deodorant babe?" John asked me snapping me out of my thoughts, "yea sure sorry hear you go" I leaned over and handed it to him. "This sucks, I'm gonna miss Danny such".

Danny is John's little brother which they believe John is a bad influence on now that they know he's gay. Even though John is much older than Danny their relationship is very strong and I can tell John loves being an older brother.

"Ouch" I say holding my hand over my heart "hello your boyfriend is sitting right here" "ex-boyfriend now" he corrects me "sorry ex-boyfriend" I say while getting up from his computer chair to hug him from behind. To be completely honest, I'm gonna miss be able to hold him like this. Me and him have grown so close since we started dating.

I knew I liked John from the moment I saw him at school. I hadn't come out to any of my friends yet but that didn't stop me from asking them who he was. Only one of my friends knew who he was, they had a class together, they said he was talkative and had a bunch of friends in that class. I wanted to ask more questions but I didn't want to seem like I was interested in him. So I started walking my friend to his class that he had with John, at first only dropping him off at the door.

I quickly learned that John liked to go to that class a little early to talk to his friends before class, so I started forcing my friend to go to class earlier as well. I would walk him all the way into class room and talk with him for a little bit, always making sure to stand in John's direct eye line so he could see me and I did catch him looking at me a couple of times.

Eventually John approached me first asking if a guy shaving their legs and armpits was weird to prove a point to his friends. It was the first time I had ever looked at him up close, I scanned and remembered every feature of him. His shoulder length hair the top half pulled into a pony tail with a braid as a accent on the right side, cheeks still a little red from eating lunch in the hot sun.

"I don't think it's weird at all, male swimmers have to do it all the time" I answered his questions looking into his eyes "see he doesn't think it's weird" he said turning back to his friends "thanks-" he paused for a second so I could tell him my name "Jack, I'm Jack by the way" "thanks Jack I'm John". He smiled at me, I'll never forget the way he smiled at me when we met officially. Something in me knew he liked me and I was right.

After only a month of walking my friend to his class John approached me asking another question, this time something completely different. "Hey Jack do you maybe wanna hangout out this weekend? I know I may not look like it but I like go carts" I was so shocked I didn't think this moment was actually happening so I stood there in silence for a while then I finally spoke.
