Secret kisses

Ricky's pov

It's Friday after school and we are all waiting in the locker room I keep to myself because I'm not really in the mood for talking. Me and EJs practices have been awkward we don't say much we just run drills until he says we can stop. He doesn't shower at the school anymore and he just acts like I don't exist I would be totally fine with that if it wasn't EJ but it is and it kinda hurts.

"Alright team the coach bus is here gather your things and get a move on. Also whoever you're paired with you have to sit next to them on the bus for formal reasons." Coach says

Great more awkwardness with EJ just perfect.

We get on the bus and honestly, I'm not happy about being here for 10 hours with EJ, especially after our conversation.

"Alright let's get a move on people," Coach says after we take our seats

And we're on the road 10 hours ahead of us and I'm just sitting in silence on my phone doing god knows what and I'm honestly just hoping EJ says something but he doesn't he just looks out the window or laughs to himself when someone jokes.

I sneak glances every chance I get hoping he notices me but he doesn't for the next three hours I just sit there wishing I could have him like a loser.

Why couldn't I just suffer in silence? I ask myself.

I pull out my phone and text him

Me: EJ.

EJ: yes?

Me: can you please forgive me?

EJ: for what you didn't disrespect me or anything.

Me: I know but you're icing me out

EJ: well considering that we couldn't keep our hands to ourselves I figured the less I talk to you the less I wouldn't want to kiss you

Me: I guess that's smart

Ej: yeah I guess.

I put my phone down and look at him smirking at his phone it's cute and it's making me feel bad but I couldn't risk not having more than to just suffer in the long run.

I'm still bored I thought texting EJ would enrich my mind but all it did was clutter it plus he's right next to me so it just made things more awkward so I just put my earbuds in and listen to whatever my daily mix is on Spotify.

We reach the five-hour mark and I'm just hopelessly fucking around. Most of the bus is sleep so is EJ so I decide maybe it's time to go to sleep. I try to get comfortable in many different ways but I just can't it feels impossible until I get the bright idea to just lay my head on EJs shoulder he shouldn't mind we've been way closer than that plus it could possibly start a conversation when I wake up.
So I fall asleep on his shoulder.

I nap for 3 hours until I'm awoken by the bus coming to a stop I pick my head up off of EJs shoulder and look out the window we're at 7-11.

"If anyone has snacks or anything they need you might have forgotten about it's the perfect time to do so," coach says

We are at the 7-11 for a good 25 to 30 minutes I don't leave the bus but EJ does leaving me and Tyler just on the bus together.

"So you and kourt huh," I ask Tyler

"Yeah she's the best," he says smiling to himself

"That's great," I say

"Yeah"

EJ exits the 7-11 and I just look at him and his beauty for a second

"Holy shit! you're in love with EJ" he says loudly and excitedly.

"Will you keep it down" I whisper yell

"But you are and he totally loves you back!" He teases

"Now you're just talking out of your ass," I say

"I'm serious," he says looking me dead in my eyes

"About what?" EJ interrupts

"Nothing we're just talking about Kourtney" I quickly lie

"Oh okay," he says taking his seat

Tyler makes kissing noises and moves his hands imitating kissing like a kid oh god he's like the second person who knows?
