Flower doorstep (Jam/Tom x Jake)

The morning after

Hey guys sorry for the very slow updates I just haven't had motivation to write. Also I could not think of a title so it's bad sorry.

This happens the morning after the last chapter

Jake POV

I woke up just tired, I didn't get much sleep last night. Were me and Tom going to kiss last night. I mean I love Tom but he left me and I was devastated back then. Plus this is also for his benefit he needs this for work in season 1 I almost got him fired. I'm doing a lot better now, I'm even going to therapy now. I started making French toast I remembered that it was Tom's favorite, I remember how he got excited the first time I made it. I was smiling like a little kid that got candy.

Tom POV

I woke up and smelt French toast and got up, I remembered what happened last night. I feel like an idiot why did I think it was a good idea to try and kiss him. I went outside and saw Jake about to finish cooking. Tom: "hey Jake can we talk about what happened last night". Jake looked a little uncomfortable but said Jake: "yeah we probably should". Tom: "okay" it was awkward I didn't know where I should start. Tom: "I'm sorry I shouldn't have tried to kiss you". Jake: "I'm also sorry I also leaned in, but we broke up and you only come here once a month we should just be friends". Tom: "I know it's selfish but I don't want to just be friends I know we have broken up but I love you and  you know that". I could see Jake tense up he looked at me straight in the eyes. Jake: "Tom I almost got you fired back then, I love you too but we both know it's not a good idea to date". I know what he was saying was the truth but it still stung to hear from him. Than Jake started again Jake: "I'd still like to be friends with you Tom, because like I said I love you and being friends is the closest relationship we should have". Tom: "yeah I'd like to still be friends" I felt horrible right than all Jake was saying was true but it still hurt.

Jake POV

I feel like crying but this is the best scenario for us both not to get hurt again. I heard Tom's phone ring and Tom went to another room. He probably has to leave soon maybe I can hang out with Zack and see if he's made any moves with Seth I giggle to myself. Tom: "hey I have to leave in 2 hours do you want to watch a movie" Tom asked me awkwardly. Jake: "yeah sure let's do that" why does it have to hurt so bad to do the right thing, why do I have to let you go. I can't think like this I now I need to just live with the fact and move on from him.

Sorry again for the really slow updates it's just that lack of motivation and being stressed.
