George pov:

Finally we came home, and both me and Sapnap where exhausted. I understood why we don't go to town everyday. Then when we stepped trough the door. My mom got this..look on her face. "Daniel, what day was that really important meeting we had",my mom said and looked at my dad

He tought a bit about it,before that same look spread over his face. "Sorry but we have to go! We'll be back soon!", my mom said putting on her coat and rushing out the door. We all stood there kinda just processing what happened.

"So..tea anyone?", I said looking at bad,skeppy and sapnap. "Sure I'll have some", bad said and smiled. "Me too please", skeppy said. I went to the kitchen and picked out the herbs I wanted to use. I decided to use lavender in the tea too since it's a calming herb.

I poured some water in a tea kettle and put it on the stove. I turned the stove on and while the water started boiling, I divided the herbs in the teabags. When the water was done boiling I poured it in to the little teacups.

Sapnap, skeppy and bad where sitting in the living room. Skeppy and bad sat on one couch and Sapnap on the other. I placed down all the cups on the table in the middle, and sat down on the couch with Sapnap. We all sat there in silence taking small sips of our tea.

"So..did you guys buy anything in town today?", bad asked us. "I got two braclets and Sapnap got two too", I said taking another sip of my tea. "Yeah, here's one of them", Sapnap said showing his wrist with the orange braclet. "Where's the other one", skeppy asked him. He turned slightly pink. "I gave it to Karl", he said looking down a little bit

Skeppy and bad looked at each other and smirked. "Did he like the braclet?", bad asked him and leaned forward. "Yeah I think so", Sapnap responded still looking down with that same pink tint now a little stronger. I saw skeppy trying to suppress a laugh. "Okay so to explain the situation George, Karl and Sapnap met in his clock store when we were in town once and now Sapnap has been going there almost everyday since they met", bad explained

"You've fallen hard haven't you", I said looking at Sapnap with a smile. "LIKE YOU DONT HAVE A CRUSH ON THE GADENER", Sapnap shot back clearly embarrassed. "Oh? That's new", bad said now looking at me smiling.

Now it was my turn to turn a bit pink. "Yeah that's new George, how about you explain?", Sapnap said smirking at me. "It's not much to explain really, he's the new person taking care of the garden and we're friends", I said trying to shrug it off.

"We'll I guess I'll have to explain then", Sapnap said even though I gave him a death glare. "okay so George has a crush on the new gardener that works here and he's really gay for him-", before Sapnap could speak more I slapped my hand over his mouth. "SAPNAP. STOP. TALKING. OR IM GONNA TAPE UR MOUTH I SWEAR", I said looking Sapnap dead in the eye

He started laughing and pulled my hand off his mouth. I saw that skeppy and bad where also trying hard not to laugh. I wanted to sink trough the floor, I don't think I've ever been that embarrassed in my whole life. But I trust bad and skeppy so it made it a little less embarrassing.

"Oh George don't be embarrassed, everyone has had a crush atleast once , and that includes me and skeppy too", bad said looking at me with a kind look and a smile. Honestly I don't know what I would do without them. They're basically the only people I've ever opened up to ever, and without them I have no clue how things would have turned out.

"And it's not like Sapnap isn't totally in love with Karl", skeppy said and smiled. Sapnap blushed again. We talked for a while. But then I remember I had to ask them something. "I have to ask and you don't have to answer but..we're you guys and my parents arguing when me and Sapnap came back?"

Skeppy and bad looked at eachother, then bad sighed. "Well to explain the short way, your dad made a homophobic joke about me and skeppy wanted to defend me, so we started arguing", he said stroking his hair out of his face

I felt my heart sink. I knew my parents didn't fully support the lgbtq community, but I never thought my own dad would make fun of bad. His wife's brother. I guess they saw how I reacted because skeppy told me it wasn't my fault. "Just because your parents are homophobic, doesn't mean that you are too", he said and leaned on bads shoulder

I mumbled something to answer and tried to smile at them. I saw Sapnap glance over at the clock on the wall. "I'm tired so I'm gonna head to bed now, goodnight", he said and stood up. "We'll probably me too", I said and stood up as well.

"We'll goodnight guys", bad yawned at us. I took my teacup and put it in the sink. I went out of the kitchen and up the stairs.

-time skip to when he's ready for bed ig-

I went into my room and collapsed onto my bed. God I was tired. Sapnap came into my room and closed the door behind him. He sat down on his madres and yawned. "Can I ask you something Sapnap?", I asked him and leaned back on the headboard. "Sure thing", he said and looked at me.

"How did you realize you had a crush on Karl?", I said still looking up in the ceiling. His expression changed to a slightly surprised face. Because it was probably what he was least expecting I'd ask. "How do i explain, i think i just knew. He was almost all I could think of, I thought he was the best person in existence and I feel like I'm gonna die every time he smiles at me", he said laughing a little bit.

I nodded a little bit not looking at him. "Why do you ask?", he said. "Just curios", I lied since that wasn't true. "We'll I'm gonna sleep now. Can you turn the light off?, he said deciding not  to push the conversation further. Even tough he could clearly tell I was lying.

I turned the light off and laid down in bed. "Goodnight Sapnap", i mumbled. I got no response since he was fast asleep and the only thing you could here was his breathing. I turned back to the side getting the pale moonlight in my face.

Then I felt tears rolling down my cheek. I wiped it away but it didn't help. I tried my best not to sob and wake up Sapnap. The thing is I was crying over my crush on clay. Not because something had happened between us. I was scared of what my parents would think.

I didn't stop crying so I ended up crying myself to sleep.
