Justin Fisher Part 2

A/N Today the song's "Little Lion Man" by Mumford and Sons. Two updates in a row, same band. It's a good Band, what can I say?

An entire week passed by, and all I could think about was Nico. Him and I didn't exactly have a steady friendship, but I liked being in his company. I didn't know about him, though. He was always with Will when he wasn't with me. But they were just friends.

He doesn't like you, and you know it.

No, he's just Friends with Will.

Right?

It seemed like I was overthinking everything relating to Nico these days.

He was becoming my best friend rapidly, but also my crush, my newfound obsession. I was basically in love with him.

My heart kept telling me to stop, stop the feelings. I couldn't just stop it! It was love, for God's sake!

But my head agreed with me. I'd never been in love before. I loved being in love.

Will and I were on a rocky stage for a little bit, but we got closer as the week progressed. He and I were always happy, but mostly him. I liked being with him as well. If only I could be friends with him and date Nico at the same time.

My friendships were all weird. I wanted to spend my time with my old friends, the one I hung out with before Nico and Will showed up. But I was hooked with Nico and Will. They just seemed so amazing, it didn't even feel real being around them.

You're ignoring your old friends, you brat.

No, I'm just making more friends than them.

Right?

Overthinking the situation was my specialty.

Every passing day, my feelings for Nico grew stronger. I was basically obsessed with learning everything about the guy, but he started avioding me when I pried too far one day.

"He's starting to get on my nerves," I overheard Nico talking to Will alone in the bathroom that day.

"Maybe he just wants to know you. The real Nico," Will muttered. "He hasn't asked me any questions yet."

"He's like, obsessed with me, or something," Nico hissed at his friend. "I don't like it. Can we leave the school?"

"You can't just move schools whenever you want, Neeks."

"Watch me."

"You'll never get a decent education at this rate!" Will shouted after him while the two walked out of there.

I held my head in my hands, rethinking everything I'd done.

He was right. I was acting immature and obsessive. I needed to apologize.

I caught up with him later on, determined to gain back my friend.

"Listen, I feel the need to apologize to you," I explained to him.

"I'm listening."

"I've felt so weird the past week, like I'm in a new body."

"That's not an excuse to-"

"Just let me finish," I interrupted. "I know you've probably heard this before, since you're, well, you."

"Excuse me?" Nico raised an eyebrow.

"I think I'm in love with you-" I blurted.

His eyes widened. "Huh? Is this some kind of cruel joke?"

"No! Of course not!" My face was turning redder by the minute. "Why would I lie about something like that?"

"You're serious?" He asked.

I nodded. "Yeah, I am. That's why I wanted to get to know you. I should've taken a hint earlier."

"Justin, Will and I are-" Nico started. "We're not friends. We're dating."

I pursed my lips. "I feel really stupid, actually. I've never been in love before."

"I don't really know what to say," Nico admitted, shrugging. "I'm sorry, Justin. Just move on from me. You won't be seeing me ever again anyway."

Nico left in a run, nearly tackling one of the girls in his way.

"Brutal-" Will showed up behind me.

I turned around, feeling ready to cry. "I'm sorry, I didn't know-"

"It's alright," Will smiled comfortingly. "You didn't do anything wrong."

Yes, you did.

Idk why y'all liked the last chapter so much. But here's part 2 I guess
