"Well who is it?" Now vance was confused if he likes Bruce as a crush or not

"..." Bruce didn't answer, he was already asleep by the time vance realized

Vance picked up Bruce and placed him on his bed, he went back to the bathroom to change and got into bed himself

"I don't like him..i like him as a friend..i just think he's cute..no not cute..well he's not ugly either, he is good looking.." Vance blankly stared at Bruce

Vance was still a little tipsy from the party, and still zoned out, he fell asleep after half an hour. Being woken by a small scream.

"What happened?" Vance saw Bruce sitting up on the bed, breathing heavily

"..you'll make fun of me" Bruce replied

"...what did you pee the bed or something" Vance teased

"Shut up no I didn't, i just had a bad dream" Bruce defensed

"About what?"

"What happened..at school" Bruce trailed off

Vance sat up next to Bruce, wrapping his arm around Bruce's shoulder. They spoke about it for a while and Vance took out more alcohol.

"Want some?"

"It's 2 in the morning why are you drinking?"

"I mean..were Both up"

After 2 hours of laughing and and Vance drinking. They were just sitting in bed, talking

"...can..can I kiss you?" Vance was clearly drunk, but Bruce stupidly said yes since he was still intoxicated by whatever that girl gave him.

Bruce was hesitant at first but gave In, he felt happy and surprised that Vance liked boys..or maybe he was drunk? The kiss felt right, it felt that nothing mattered but the two of them.

Bruce pushed back because he felt that Vance didn't mean it, that he was just drunk.

"I should go, your drunk and i need to get home"

"...oh..yeah" Vance felt sober even if he was drinking, he knew Bruce didn't like him, he still wanted to be friends with him but he was still confused if he liked him or not. Now he ruined their relationship.. he felt a lump in his throat. His only friend, the one kid that treated him like a person.

It was awkward as Bruce got his things and left, were they still friends? Would they still talk?

"Fuck" vance yelled, he held his head with his hands, he was crying over a boy, he was crying over Bruce.

"I'm home" bruce spoke, it was around 6 and only his father was up, going to work.

"Good morning" his father replied, walking past him to go to work.

Bruce went upstairs and sat on his bed, what would he say to Vance if he called him? He like the kiss but he knew it probably meant nothing ( it did mean something to Vance 🗣️)

How would they talk to each other after that? Vance probably thought he was some weird gay now. Bruce didn't know if he should tell Vance he liked him or not. Bruce thought if they stopped being friends it would help his feelings stop, that it would be better if he distanced himself from Vance so he wouldn't get rejected if he did tell Vance he liked him.

Bruce just decided to take a shower and go back to bed, and hope that Vance would at least forget they kissed.

Vance was still anxious if him and Bruce were still friends, why would he kiss him? He was still confused if he liked bruce or not.

He was in denial
