Clay's POV

I was sitting on the couch with George, Sapnap and Karl. Who Karl was, that was a long story.

Sapnap left for his holiday to Spain and met Karl there. Sapnap, being always attracted to girls, started feeling strange around Karl, not knowing what he was feeling. He ended up texting us about it and apparently he had feelings for boys, something he never expected.

He was bisexual, but then with a high preference for girls which made him never realise he would ever like a boy. Either way, he fell in love with Karl and Karl fell in love with him too. They were in a relationship for a month now and I was happy they were happy together. They were just cuddled up as we were watching a movie.

I was sitting next to George and held him tightly as I massaged his neck softly, sometimes pressing a short kiss somewhere on his face, neck or hair. George and I were incredibly happy together, we loved each other more than we had ever loved anyone on this earth and I couldn't get enough of him.

We at least saw each other once a day. Since we had school again, I saw him every day at school and we went to each other's house during the weekends, often sleeping at each other's places. I was really happy with George and I told him that all day.

And then there was me, my mum and her boyfriend. My mother was together with the man she started dating a few months back. I knew for sure that she wasn't together with him for the money, but he helped us out a lot.

He had a full time job, causing my mum to be able to spend more time with me. She worked three times a week now. The other days she was at home and her boyfriend came to our house every day after work too. He basically lived with us now, paid the rent and took me out for shopping so I could buy whatever.

I got a new phone as well, I got more clothes and we had enough food. We even had extra food now and I could grab some biscuits when I wanted to.

My mother's boyfriend was really supportive. I had hidden for a month that I had a boyfriend and that I liked boys, I told him George slept in my room because we didn't have an extra one. It wasn't a complete lie, but he mostly slept in my room because we wanted to cuddle and kiss without anyone around.

I didn't exactly come out as planned. My mother was at work and so was he. At least, that's what George and I thought. We were in a kind of heated making out session on the couch as he walked in. Well, I couldn't really hide it anymore and told him what was going on. He just laughed a bit and left us alone again. Luckily we only pulled off our shirts, because it would have been really embarrassing otherwise.

He often teased us now though. When we went to our room together, he always made a comment about it. We just accepted it and we could laugh about it. I was glad he supported us a lot, because there would have been a big problem if he didn't.

The movie was over and Karl stood up, holding Sapnap's hand. 'I have to go home now, you can stay here if you want,' he said to Sapnap. They were lucky that Karl appeared to live really close to us. It was still forty minutes with a bike, but it would be sad if he lived around Spain.

'I'm going with you,' Sapnap said. 'I think Clay and George like to be together as well.'

I smiled and Sapnap gave us both a short hug. 'Bye guys, we enjoyed the movie!'

Karl smiled and nodded. 'I did too.'

They both walked to the door and my mother's boyfriend walked in as they went outside. He just came from work and smiled at Karl and Sapnap. 'Bye guys,' he said, closing the door behind him after they said goodbye as well.

He looked at us. 'Hi! Did you have fun?'

'We did,' I smiled. He gave me a short hug and walked to the living room. 'Your mother is coming a bit later so I'm going to prepare dinner already. Then it's done when she comes home. You can go upstairs or use the couch. I'm in the kitchen, call me if you need me.'

'Thanks,' I said with a smile. George smiled as well and we went upstairs to my room.

'I love cuddling with you,' George said, muffling a laugh. He wrapped his arms around my waist and rested his head on my chest. 'I love you, Clay.'

'I love you too, George. Do I tell you that enough?'

'You tell me around twenty times a day,' George giggled.

'But it's true, I do love you. Do you want me to say it less? Do I make you uncomfortable with it?'

'No, it's fine. I feel loved and happy when you tell me that you love me. It makes me feel worthy.'

I kissed his forehead and pampered his face with kisses. I left no spot open and ended up kissing his lips softly. 'I'm just going to say it again, but I love you. You mean the world to me, I don't know what to do without you.'

George smiled and kissed my cheek as we cuddled up again. 'I love you too, Clay. I wouldn't know what to do without you either. My life still feels like a dream when I'm next to you, but it's actually true.'

I ran my hand through his hair and wiped some out of his face to kiss his forehead as gently as possible. 'I love being close to you and I never want to let you go. My life is so much better when I'm close to you.'

'So is mine,' George said as we ended up kissing.
