" Did you miss me?" Tae asked in this gentle and vulnerable tone. His face was bright red and he looked beyond vulnerable. Despite how much I missed him, I still remembered the fact he was a man.
" I''m not gay. " I told myself. The kiss we shared suddenly appeared in my thoughts. I remembered how I took control of the kiss, how soft his lips were, and how fast his heartbeat seemed to go. Just the memory of it made me uncontrollably happy and that angered me.
Tae made me lose control of my feelings. He practically controlled my heart and I couldn't help but blindly like him. It was as if I had learned nothing from my past, just blindly trusting again. All of the things about him that made me happy angered me.
I tried not to show anger on my face but it wasn't working. I noticed the miserable look on his face. Had he even been sleeping ?
" I think I should leave now." Ethan said before running out of the restaurant like he thought I was going to kill him. I was just going to kill him. How wasn't he able to find someone who was right under our nose ?
I looked back at Tae who stared at me with this longing look. Like I was something that he had realized could never be touched. Which to me made no sense. No other person in the world had ever made me feel as vulnerable as he did. He made my worries disappear and pulled me into this world, where it seemed only the two of us existed.
Tae took a deep breath and his eyes started to water.
" Ace Templeton, I reject you as my ma-" Tae stopped mid sentence when he saw the uncontrollable grin on my face. He had never said my full name before. Him saying my name was enough to make my heart warm and my face flush.
I stood up and he took a step back. His expression changed into a worried one and he turned around to leave.
" I'll never let you leave again." I said as I took my hands and wrapped it around his waist.
Just touching him made me feel whole again and his body perfectly fit into my arms. He turned back to look at me and I found myself chucking at how much he was blushing.
" I- I thought you didn't like me?" He asked with the same vulnerable tone. I didn't know how to respond. Was he talking about me liking him in general or romantically? From the way he looked at me I knew which one he was talking about.
The answer was easy, I wasn't gay. I had once loved my wife and I even married her. I had never returned the feelings my gay best friend had for me. I couldn't like him. Even if I wanted to or admitted it, all I would end up doing is getting him hurt.
" I don't. "
