~Gemma's POV~
"I've come to a terrible revelation" I groan and put my head in my hands.
"Which is?" Ash asks.
"I may have a tiny crush on Jack" I look at the floor.
"I know. Why is that terrible?" Ash takes a bite of a cookie.
"What do you mean you know" I look at my computer screen.
"It's painfully obvious you both like each other" they roll their eyes.
"Oh god is it" my eyes widen.
"I mean to outsiders but of course you two are completely blind to it"
"Oh. Well what do I do?"
"Confess or live in sadness" Ash takes a sip of Sprite.
"Both are terrible options"
"I know. That's why I don't do love" they point to the aromantic flag behind them and smile.
I smile at my computer and see a notification on my phone. It was from Jack.
Bald
Just got home :)
"Ash he texted me" I show them my phone.
"So answer"
"I can't"
"Well don't ghost the poor guy" Ash rolls their eyes and takes another bite of their cookie.
"You're right" I open my phone and text him back.
Bald
Just got home
Safely I assume?
Of course
Good
Goodnight Gem
Night Jack <3
"Ash I put a heart" I put my phone down.
"What do you mean" Ash looks at me.
"I put a heart. I said 'Night Jack heart'" I groan.
"Well was it an emoji heart or a symbol heart"
"Symbol"
"Oh you're fine then"
"Ok good" I sigh.
"You should get some sleep Gemma. It's late. I'll talk to you when you wake up."
"You're right. 'Night Ash" I smile and hang up.
I do my night routine and climb into bed. I close my eyes and frown as my mind fills with thoughts of Jack.
I turn to my side and squeeze my eyes shut.
No use.
I grab my phone and facetime Jack, a slight smile on my face when he answered.
"What's up?" he asks.
"Did I wake you?" I yawn.
"Nope. Couldn't sleep"
"Me either. Stay on the phone with me?" I ask and fidget with my blanket.
"Sure" he puts his phone down on his nightstand.
"Goodnight Jack" I smile to myself.
"Goodnight Gem" he says with an obvious smile in his voice.
I close my eyes and slowly drift asleep.
It was good
