I Love You

♡♡

Joel's POV

As you can see, I tend to make a fool of myself around him. He's pretty much used to it. If someone were to ask me "what is it that you like about him so much?" I wouldn't be able to say just one thing.

It's his smile, his laugh, his heart, it's everything about him. If only he felt the same way... He's the only person I want to be with yet he's the one person I can't be with.

Oh and trust me, I've looked for signs that he was gay or something like that and I found nothing. He's 100% straight, AND might I add he has a girlfriend. I don't really like her but she loves me so she makes it kind of hard to hate her. Her and Zabdi have been dating for a year now and I don't see them breaking up anytime soon unfortunately for me.

As much as I hate to say it, she's actually as perfect as he is, but at the end of the day if I can't be with him I'm glad he's with somebody who makes him happy.

"Zabdi what's taking you so long?" I yelled from the living room. "Can you come here pleaseee" He yelled back.

"What's the problem- really..." I said opening the door. "I don't know what to wear" He whined. "Zab- so you're telling me you've been standing here, in your towel for 20 MINUTES, because you don't know what to wear TO A MOVIE??!" I said. "Yes, exactly" He said.

"IT'S A MOVIE WEAR WHATEVER, WE'RE NOT GOING TO A DINNER" I said getting frustrated. "But I still want to look nice" He said. "YOU'LL LOOK GOOD WEARING A TRASH BAG. JUST PUT SOME CLOTHES ON BEFORE WE MISS THE MOVIEEEE" I said.

"What did you just say?" He said with a smirk. "Did you just say I look good in everything?" He asked still with a huge smirk on his face. "Joel are you flirting with me?" He asked jokingly while putting his hand over his mouth.

"Really? You think that was flirting? I can flirt better than that" I said. "Really like how?" He asked. "By saying something like hmmm "That towel would look better on the floor" " I said winking at him while leaving the room. "JOEL" He said now laughing hysterically.

Yeah... I just said that... I don't know why but he brings out a very sexual Joel and I can't control the dirty thoughts that go through my mind and come out of my mouth. He usually thinks I'm joking but unfortunately I'm not...

• 10 Minutes Later •

Zabdiel finally came out of the room dressed and ready to go.

"Took you long enough" I said. "Remind me again why you wanted to 'look nice' going to a movie" I said. "I just wanted to look good for you of course" He said winking at me. "Yeah, of course" I laughed playfully rolling my eyes.

We went to see 'Coco' because it's my favorite movie and whenever they show it, I drag Zabdiel to come see it with me.

Every time the part where his grandmother dies comes on, I get really emotional and try to hide the fact that I'm holding back tears.

"Joel, it's okay to cry, you don't have to hide your feelings from me" He said as he put his hand on mine. "I'm not crying" I said. "But you are" He said putting his hand on my face and wiping away my tears. "I don't even know why you try to lie to me when I can see right through you" He chuckled. "That's not-" I said. "Shhh, watch the movie" He said putting his head on my shoulder.

OK BECAUSEEEEE, THIS IS TOO FRICKEN CUTEEEE. I'm not crying you are. 'Coco' is actually my favorite movie like ever so I just had to put it in the story ;), and I actually do cry every single time I watch it. ESPECIALLY WHEN HE SINGS 'Remember Me' STOPPP. I really hope of y'all reading this already saw 'Coco' because I totally just ruined it if you didn't by saying his grandmother dies :3... yeah... HOPE YOU ENJOYED THIS CHAPTERRRR :)<3.

(I wanted to try this thing where I put a song that somewhat goes with the chapter at the top of every chapter of this book just cuz it seems like a cute idea<3)
