57. Jealousy Jealousy

Clay POV

The weekend was over. George and I just lazed the whole time. Apart from the wild shower adventure, everything was calm. Rugby training was about an hour to an hour and a half after school every Tuesday and Thursday.

"But I'm alone then", George looked at me with a sad face when he heard my training times.
"Then why don't you stay there and watch?", I suggested.
"No, boring", he crossed his arms.
"I'll probably look hot", I smirked at him, leaning down forwards.
He looked me deep into the eyes, clenched his teeth and then rolled his eyes with a small smile.
"Okay", he sighed, "I'll watch."
"Simp", I slightly pushed his shoulder.
"What the fuck, you're my boyfriend! I'm allowed to find you attractive, aren't I?", George drew his eyebrows down cutely.

"Yeah, Georgie, you are", I giggled, trying to pat his head but he slapped my hand away.
"C'mon, let's go", I eventually said, grabbing my backpack.
We left the house and drove to school like every day.

"Heyo Clay! Hey George!", I saw Alex waving at us, standing in front of the entrance. I just rolled my eyes but changed to a small smile when I saw George waving back.

When we got to him, the two whispered briefly and finally smiled broadly at each other.
"What's up?", I pushed myself in between.
"Nothing", both of them quickly said.
"Why don't you want to tell me? It's about the thing you talked about in the ice skating hall, isn't it?", I rolled my eyes.
"Deal with it that I'm not telling you anything", George smiled childish at me while patting my shoulder. Then he grabbed Alex by his arm and went inside. I followed them.

Gosh, I've never been jealous before. Was that how it felt?
"Hey, man, you alright?", Nick suddenly came from behind with Karl on his hand.
"Yeah, just...this shitty Alex is making me crazy", I clenched my fists and clenched my teeth.
"Ouh, you're jealous?", Nick smirked at me.
"Shut up!", I slightly pushed him.
"He really seems to like Alex....wow, isn't that crazy? You, Alex and I were all three in a group who bullied George, then he became friends with me, then you...like, not friends, but anyways...and now Alex. That's this enemies to friends/lovers, whatever", Nick giggled.

When we got to our classrooms, Alex and George said goodbye and I dragged George by his arm with me.
"Wo, Clay, what's your problem?", George looked at me confused while I held him tightly.
"I have no problem. How did you come up with that?", I continued staring forwards.
"Ouh, I get it", he opened his mouth with a broad smile, "You're jealous!"
I clenched my teeth and turned my head to him to look him deep in the eye.
"Jealous Clay? I see", he smiled like he would celebrate that.
"Shut up", I pulled him quickly towards me and took him tight in my arm.

"Don't panic, I don't want anything from him and he doesn't want anything from me either", George patted my back when we reached our seats.
"And how would you know that he doesn't want anything from you, huh?", I raised my eyebrows at him.
"Because-", he stopped himself by quickly covering his mouth with his hand.
"Because what?", I got curious. It had to have something to do with that little secret that he wouldn't tell me.
"I just know it, okay", he sat down, waving me off.

"George", I whispered in the middle of class, "George", once again.
"What", he turned his head annoyed to me.
"George, this is driving me crazy. Why can't you tell me?", I bounced my leg up and down.
"Because I promised him, sorry", he looked back to the front. With a pissed face I did that too and put my chin in my hands that leaned on the table.

In the break I ran out of the room before George could reach me and headed to Alex's classroom.
"Clay?", George yelled after me, "Clay, what's the matter?!"
When I got to the room, Alex just came out and was frightened to see me standing right in front of him.
"Wow, man, you scared me! What the hell?..." he put his hand on his chest and lightly laughed.
"What is going on? George won't tell me!", I looked him deep into the eyes.
"You want to know that so badly?", he raised his eyebrows. I nodded quickly and crossed my arms.
"Well, you know....", he licked his lips like he was going to tell me now.

"I won't tell you dude", he smiled childishly at me what made me even angrier.
"Tell me!", I said a bit louder.
"Nah", he tilted his head and wrinkled his nose.
"Come on, why", I whined leaning my head against the wall, "Tell me this fucking secret....Why can't you guys tell meeeeeeeeee"
"Because you will make a problem out of it", Alex tried to get out of the room.
Then I grabbed the top of his shirt and pulled him with me out, through a small corridor into a corner and pressed him against a wall.

"Alex, I swear to god, if it concerns George, tell me!", I ordered.
"It doesn't concern George!", Alex defended himself and raised his arms, "It's about me!"
I clenched my teeth before letting go of him and turning around.
"Sorry, I-", I tried to apologize for this stupid freaking out.
"You're really obsessed with George, aren't you?", Alex giggled. I quickly turned around and opened my mouth to say something, but he got ahead of me.
"It's okay dude, he's an amazing boy. I understand, of course, that you will not entrust him to me. George is such a treasure to you, I can see that. All I can tell you is that I'm not going to put George in any danger or anything. I was just telling him something about myself. And if you want me to stay away from him, I'll do that", Alex smiled weakly at me.

"No, Alex, I'm sorry", I put my hand on his shoulder, "I'm an asshole. George likes you, I would be a terrible boyfriend if I would forbid him to be friends with you. Just-....take care of him, he is easily vulnerable. I trust you not to harm him, but ...", I made a small pause and looked him deep into the eye, "...I swear to god, if something happens to him, however, I will, and this time literally, kill you."

Alex looked at me with wide eyes and swallowed.
"I- I promise", he looked scared at me.
"Good", I smiled and patted his shoulder, "and now, go."
With a quick nod, he ran away. I had to laugh so hard after that about that I scared him so well. But what I said about killing him I was completely serious.

When school was over, I grabbed George and we went to the car.
"Don't forget training tomorrow!", I yelled over to Alex who I saw standing at the entrance. He quickly nodded at me again with this scared expression what made me smirk.
"Why is he afraid of you?", George giggled confused.
"I have no idea Georgie", I smiled, pulling him closer to me.
