Jake's P.o.v :

I was standing, infront his locker. My hands trembling and mind empty. "Do it... Its not that hard, is it ?" My mind kept telling me, but I wasn't listening..

People were talking and walking, making noise, but all I could think of was the letter in my left hand. The world around me was invisible. Well... Except for someone...

"Hey Jake, I thought you were skipping school."

Huh? Someone said my name..? I don't-

"Jake ? Hello ?"

Oh fu-

"O-oh, yes ?" I turned around to see a familiar face looking at me, a face mixed with happiness and worry.

"Took you long enough, what are you doing infront of my locker ?" The boy said, making Jake's heartbeat go faster.

"O-oh! Um.. I was.. Waiting for you!! Yep, totally." That was such an obvious lie.. I hope he doesn't see throught it, I thought, feeling shivers down my spine.

"Oh, okay. What class do you have right now ? And what is this letter ?" He asked. Fuck- he couldn't know. Not yet.

"This.. ! It's for school stuff ! Nothing important you know..
But anyway, I have maths, and you Drew ?"

"Ah.. I have french.. better wish me luck for this one..." He said, faking a sad tone.

"I'm so sorry for you bro, please survive the class because we have P.E together after"

"I can't promise, but I'll try. Well my class is gonna start, see you" He said, turning around to leave.

" Okay, good luck Drew"

"Yeah.."

Wow. I nearly got caught. I'm gonna put it in after,  I'm too scared right now. I turned around to leave too. I can't be late, or else my mom will be mad.

Drew P.o.v :

Does he want me to believe that ? I know when he's lying because everytime he does he stutters, he looks frightened and his left leg starts shaking a little- wait. I kind of sound like a stalker right now... Whatever, I'm late for classe I don't have time for that.

. . .  After class . . .

I took my phone out and texted Jake.

Me : Where are you ?

I'm infront of your locker, why ? : Jake

Me : Again ? Are you sure you don't have business there ?
Me : I mean- Daisy's locker is right next to mine.
Me : Are you trying to give her a gift ?

Oh no, I was waiting for you again <3 : Jake

Me : Yeah right, I don't believe that.

Drew !!! Just you see. : Jake

Me : Yeah, I'm coming.

Coming like.. how ?? : Jake

Me : stfu.

What an idiot, really making me rethink my choices in life..
I was walking to my locker, seeing Jake 'wait for me' as he said.

"Hey, idiot." I said, wawing it him.

"Hi Drew !! Sorry for what I said lmao" he said, looking embarrassed ? I can't seem to read in his eyes sometimes.. Which is weird because I can always guess when he lies.

"Heyyy ?! Drew ?" I felt a hand finding its place on my right cheek.

"Oh- uh, yes ? My bad." I immediatly felt my cheeks go red as he rubbed gently my cheek. What is happening to me ? Why am I blushing ? Is it because he looks like Zoey..? Yes. That's it!

"Fuck Drew stop spacing ouuut" Jake said with a worried face, he then added, "Is something wrong ?"

Is something wrong ? No ? I don't think so atleast...

"No, don't worry. I'm okay"

"If you say so..."

"Anyway, want to skip P.E, I'm kind of not in the mood to run right now."

"Of course, I'll do anything with you <3"

My heartbeat went a bit faster, I must be sick...


. . . Skipping . . .

Jake's P.o.v :

Wow.. I wish I had money right now to buy this.

"Hey, do you want that ?"

I turned around to see Drew, holding lots of money. Like 300 dollars. Me ? Does he wanna pay for it ?

"Oh no, it's okay Drew."

"No, it's not. You have been looking at this set of markers for five minutes now. Plus, it's not that expensive, I'll buy it for you."

Without waiting for an answer, he entered the store, took the set and went paying for it.

"D-drew !? Wait-" I entered the store too and went to join him.

"You really shouldn't have done that.. I don't want to spend your money"

"Hey, now. I proposed to pay, it's not like you asked me, right ? Plus I like spoiling my best friend."

Best friend... I forgot we were best friends. My heart sank listening to these words and I felt like throwing up. Drew.. do you see me only as your 'Best friend' ?
