When Hearts Collide

Chapter Four

Mark's P.O.V

After Joel ran off cry I'll admit that I felt kind of bad about it. In all honestly I actually did want to have a relationship with him, but I just can't let anyone know that I'm gay. That would be social suicide for me.

"So babe should we go back to my place and have some fun? My parents are out of town for a week." Morgan says pulling me close to her, but this time I didn't wrap my arms around her. I didn't want to go back to her house with her. Morgans great and all but she just in this relationship for the sex and popularity.

"No I'm just going to go home and watch Netflix." I say coldly pushing her off of me. I didn't want a nothingness relationship like this. I wanted a real relationship, you know emotion, passion. Long walks on the beach at midnight when it was just the two of you and the moon. I guess that my definition of romance and everyone else's is different.

"What's your problem? I was only asking. God you don't have to be such an ass about it." She says with a slightly caring yet mostly annoyed look on her face. She rolled her eyes when I didn't answer right away.

"It's just that I think we were a little but to hard on the poor kid. I mean it's not like he was trying to rape me or something. We could have at least tried to be friends with him or be nice." I tell her earning another annoyed look.

"Are you seriously starting to feel bad for that little fag? I can't believe this. You know what I'm done with this overly nice bs. I'm out. I'm breaking up with you. And I doubt that you can find a better girl than me. Because baby I'm the best there ever was." She's then stomps out of the bowling alley and get into her car. I see it drive past me and decide to stay and hangout.

Joel's P.O.V

The next morning I wake up and still feel the unbearable pain from what Mark had done. I just couldn't believe that someone who'd never been mean to anyone would screw me over like that. Someone that I thought I could trust with my heart. Someone who might have actually understood what I was going through. Right now I just feel like I'm falling into a deep dark hole of depression.

An hour later I decided to call Haley and see if she wanted to come over and hang out. She said yes and now we are sitting in my room eating ice cream and watching Skins on Netflix because I feel better when watching other teens fail at life with drugs and sex.

"I'm really sorry that he screwed you over but I found someone for you whose waaaaayyyy better than Mr. Football Boy." Haley says.

"Oh yeah who did you find that is better than Mark? I honestly don't even think that's possible." I tell her. Then she holds her phone in front of my face showing me a picture of an absolutely beautiful guy.

"Is he even real?" I ask stunned by the absolutely gorgeous guy.

"Yup and I happen to know that he's moving here and going to Summerhold. He's absolutely 100% gay and he's my other bestie." She squeals proudly. "Oh and his name is Max James." She tells me.

"Ok so when is he moving here?" I ask.

"He'll be here on Tuesday morning. Guess you the first person he wants to date is?" She says pointing at me.

"Oh my gosh I love you Haley. This is why you are my best friend in the entire world. How did you even get him to want to go out with me?" I ask hugging her tightly.

"Well I told him how sweet you were and he said that he needed a guy like you to show him what a real relationship should look like. He's moving into his house today. You wanna go pick him up and get some coffee?" She asks me.

"Yeah tell him that we are on our way!!" I tell her and get up to start getting ready.

Mark's P.O.V

"Mark why don't you go over to the new neighbors and try to help them move in?" My mother says from the kitchen while I sit in the living room feeling like the biggest asshole in the world.

"Ok." I say to her and start walking outside.

At my neighbors' house I see a tall, dark haired man whose neither fit nor unfit.

"Excuse me sir would you like some help getting your things into the house?" I ask the man.

"Oh no we are almost done, but thank you." He says so I turn around and start to walk back to my house. Then I hear a car pull up to their house.

"Max get your ass out here!" I hear someone yell then I turn around to see Joel and a girl sitting in a car. I was wondering who they were calling then I saw who I was guessing was Max.

"Sorry my mom was giving me money. Is that hottie behind you Joel?" Max asks the girl making me feel a bit jealous. Joel was already over me? It had only been a day and he was over me?

I decided to sit on the ground and listen to them.

"Yuppers this is Joel. So I have a great idea!!!!" The girl says.

"And what would that me Haley?" Joel asks bumping his shoulder against hers to make her laugh.

"How about you drop me off at my house and you two go out on a date?" Haley says with a wink.

" Sounds good to me. Joel do you want to go on a date with me tonight?" Max asks. I feel my face go red with anger and embarrassment.

"Absolutely. Let's go!" Joel says and Max gets in the car. Then Joel drives away blaring Blood On the Dance Floor.

I can't believe that Joel is choosing Max. I will get Joel back. Joel will fall in love with me. I don't care if I have to eat the crap out of Max to get him.
