Michael sat in silence as he stared at the plastered ceiling trying to find a way out of these thoughts, but they never would leave his head. He would tell himself "I shouldn't be thinking this way, I can't lose him." Michael couldn't sleep, all he could think about was the boy who had his heart wrapped around his finger ever since 9th grade. Michael would try endlessly to forget about these daring feelings as though they didn't exist , but it ended up hurting him more.
The next day at school was a stress filled one Oliver had an argument with Jared. Kelsey pushed them around. And that god damned smile that would show up on Chris' slightly chiseled face his beautiful white teeth glowing as if they were made for an angel. Michael couldn't bear these feelings. He would have dreams that would send shivers down his spine he never thought that he could have thoughts such as these. Michael stared at his food like he was crumbling Oliver was the only one who seemed to have noticed.

"Hey, dude are you ok!" Oliver asked in a hushed tone trying not to get the other's attention.

"Yeah could we talk in private." Michael questioned he knew it was probably a bad idea, but he hasn't told anyone and if he waits longer it would kill him inside.

"Sure hold on." Oliver stated raising her hand getting Aiden's attention.

"Uh...me and Michael need to talk we'll be back.... ok bye." With that Oliver grabbed Michael by the wrist and dragged him down the long school hallway.

"Ok what is it? You've been acting weird lately.."Oliver asked moving her face closer to his.

Michael scooted back a little, "I-I uh I think I'm in love with Chris." Michael awkwardly stated rubbing the back of his neck. Oliver's eyes began to widen with shock.

"Y-you what? Holy shit dude!" Oliver shouted a bit too loud as some kids who were passing by gave them awkward glares. Michael smiled awkwardly at her a small blush started to sprinkle on his cheeks.

"Yeah I've been thinking about him a lot lately.", Michel informed Oliver. Her expression changed into a small smirk.

"Oh h ho. Really?" She let out, staring at Michael's flustered state. " when did this all start Mikey?" She questioned with a satisfied smile.

" I-I'm not sure. But please j-just don't tell anyone." Michael said cautiously. Oliver nodded but still had a small smug look.

"Ok fine, but what's it going to be Michael Brooks or Chris Thompson?" She teased. Michael narrowed his eyes towards her. His glistening cyan eyes were glaring holes through Oliver's soul. She gulped nervous from the eye contact.

"Ok jeez, fine dude." Oliver moved her hands in a retreating fashion. Michael breathed a sigh of relief, and stared into Oliver's shiny yellow eyes.

" Thank you, I really mean it." Michael gave a little pat to Oliver's shoulder. She looked shocked, Michael was never the one to give affection to his friends. Oliver beamed in his direction, and began to walk back to the table. She turned her head back at him and said.

" I think we should head back, before they start to think we're doing something weird or ditching class."
