With that being said I don't know how much longer I will be writing this story I'm having fun with it but I want to start a new project and I can't write three stories at once that would be to hard on me, just wanted to let you all know.

Enjoy

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Jack stormed away from Alex needed nothing more then to get off this bus but he knew that was impossible with them being on the highway. He walked past everyone who were all sitting in the living room playing some random game, Cassadee watched him storm past with a worried expression.

"Jack!" He heard her call but he didn't take a break to look back at her just kept walking towards the front of the bus, needed to get away from everyone. He walked up to the door were the driver was, he slide opne the door looking at the driver whose name was Stan.

"Can I sit in here with you? I need to get away from everyone." He said looking at Stan with pleading eyes.

Stan shrugged his shoulders. "I don't mind." He said with a slight smile. Stan was an older man probbaly in his early 40s, a real nice southern man who has spent most of his life on the road driving these buses he calls hime. "To tell you the truth I'll enjoy the company." He said looking over at Jack who sat down in the passenger seat.

Jack looked over at the old man with a smile not really knowing what he should say, he has only talked to Stan once and that was the day they met. "Sorry I might not be the best company, I'm not in the best mood." He finally said trying to get rid of the awkward moment.

Stan looked over at him "And whys that? I've been here with you guys a little over a week and from what I can tell you are the most talkative one here." He said studying Jack's face trying to find the hurt in it.

Jack let out a small smile, "I'm only that talkative when I'm with Alex and he's the cause of my bad mood." He said dropping the smile.

"You don't have to tell me why if you don't want but i'm all ears." Stan said turning down the music he was listeing too.

Jack let out a sigh, "Well first off I have to ask are you homophobic?" He asked watching the old man closely.

Stan shook his head. "Nope, you will not find a judgemently bone in this body." He said with a gentle smile.

Jack nodded his head. "Good, so um I don't know if you know this but I'm Jack the guitarist for the band and Alex is my best friend and the lead singer," He said as Stan nodded his head. "Well anyways me and Alex are like brothers and well things have changed sense this tour started." Jack said looking away from Stan and out the big window.

"Changed how? I've seen you guys before you seem very close." Stan said watching Jack as well as the road.

"Well it all kind of started when I got a girlfriend at the begining to this tour, I didn't tell Alex about it but Rian another band memeber knew about her, Alex acted almost jealous about it and when he finally did meet her he would always just close himself off which is something he would never do, he acts as if he hates her which does hurt me. We aren't the same anymore not as close and I hate it and now he likes someone but wont tell me but as no problem telling Cassadee, Rians girlfriend, we never use to keep secrets and now he's like closing me off! He wont look me in the eye and acts all awkward around me, and did I mention that this person he likes is a guy? I never even knew Alex went that way, I just feel like we aren't brothers anymore." Jack vented feeling his heart beat pick up and sweat start to form all over his body.

Stan had a small smile on his face as he looked over at hyperventilating boy. "Seems to me that this Alex boy has a crush on you." He said with a sparkle in his green eyes.

Jack looked at him taken aback "What? No! That's impossible he's just a friend nothing more!" He cried turning red faced.

Stan started to smile even more. "I don't think so, from what you're telling me Alex has gotten jealous over this new girl, likes some boy but wont tell you and is all awkward around you sounds to me like a crush." He said turning back to the road.

"No." Jack whispered to himself thinking more on it. Stan did kind of have a point, Alex did seem jealous everytime Scarlet was around as well as being all awkward with him, early when he caged his back against the wall he looked as if he was going to faint. "Could it be true?" He asked more loudly to Stan.

Stan nodded his head, "I think so. Now the only question is do you feel the same way?" He asked looking back at Jack who was staring unblinking out the window. "This may not be what you want to hear but I think you like Alex as well, why else would you get this acted up over another guy who is only your friend?" He asked another question when Jack didn't answer him.

"I have Scarlet." Jack said in a shaky voice.

"And Alex is left out in the cold holding in his feelings." Stan turning away once again.

"How could I not see this before?!" He asked himself slamming his fist onto his leg.

"You weren't looking for the signs." The old man said.

"I need to go talk to him, thanks for the talk Stan." Jack said getting up from the seat, patting Stan on the back as he left the room.

He walked out and all eyes turned towards him, "Where's Alex?" He asked looking directly at Cassadee.

"Still in the back." She said pointing towards the back where Jack had left Alex not to long ago.

Jack nodded his head walking past the group once again in a desperate manor to talk to his best friend about feelings he never thought possible. He walked in and saw Alex still sitting the way he was earlier, Jack sat down next to him turning so he was facing towards him, Alex looked at him looking confused and heartbroken.

"It's me isn't it? The guy you like, it's me?" He asked in a shaky voice.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A cliffhanger! What do you think Alex will do? Let me know!

Sorry it's so short but there was a lot that happened in this chapter and my mom needs the computer so I didn't really have that much time to write.

Ignore my mistakes I know there are a lot, also Stan is a made up person I have no idea who drivers their bus.
