Joe's POV

I had invited my sister round because I needed her advice. Desperately.

My feelings for Caspar had... Developed? Well basically, I was pretty sure I liked my roomate. And I'm not talking the casual 'friendly' liking.

All of these thoughts had resulted in me having panic attacks, thats why I had invited my sister round. If there was someone who could help, it was Her.

I buzzed Zoe into the building and let her in through door. We briefly hugged as I led her into My room. Caspar was out shopping so I knew we wouldn't be interupted.

" So what was so the desperate thing that you needed to tell me that you couldn't tell me over the phone?" She asked, looking concerned.

I took a deep breath and began to tell her eveything, right from the start...

Caspar's POV

I had just returned back from shopping, the door was unlocked.

That isn't like Joe

He was usually very organised.

I quietly walked in and placed the shopping bags on the counter. Joe wasn't anywhere to be seen however I heard voices coming from his room. I knew it was rude to listen in to conversations but I couldn't help it.

" Joe, you might as well tell him"

It sounded like Zoe's voice? Joe didn't tell me he was having her round. Well , he might of done. I probably just didn't listen...

" I can't Zoe, I just can't" I heard Joe squeak.

It pained me to hear Joe sound so anxious.

"What is the worst that can happen?" Zoe spoke.

"Caspar rejects me? I loose my best friend? I humiliate myself?"

What are they talking about?

"yes... But what if he feels the same way?"

Huh? Feel the same way about what?'

"Zoe, I can't risk it."

"Well, one of you has to make a move!"

"I guess.. The likely hood is though, He won't ever like me in the same way I like him!"

What? Joe liked me? Come on Caspar, he hadn't actually said that, had he?

"Where is Caspar anyways?" Zoe asked.

Oh shit. I grabbed the shopping bags and silently tiptoed out of the apartment, into the hallway. I re-entered the apartment and called out to Joe that I was back, He didn't need to know that I had partially listened to his and Zoe's convosation...

He walked out of his room with Zoe. I greeted them both and sat down, turning on the TV. Questioning everything that I had previously heard, what even had I heard?
