I'd Never Tell (boyxboy)

Chapter Three

Kevin's POV:

After hanging out with Double D and Andie I had the strangest combination of frustration and happiness. So I figured working on my motorcycle would defuse some of those emotions. I cranked up my stereo, opened up my garage door and began tinkering with the engine of my bike. The music playing wasn't helping but I was trying really hard to tune it out. Yeah. That's definitely easy. "When anybody says your name I wanna run away, I keep remembering I can't forget you. It doesn't matter when I try it happens anyway, it's been forever and I can't forget you. With every single day, it won't go away, the way I feel about you. And when it's said and done, you're the only one. And I can't regret you, so I can't forget you." I glanced across the street at Double D's house and saw a reflection of moonlight off something from the upstairs window. I glanced up and saw Double D sitting in his window with a guitar in his hands. I leaned over and turned off my stereo so I could hear him play, and went back to work on my bike. I heard him strumming and softly singing. His voice brought tears to my eyes. "My life is brilliant... My life is brilliant, my love is pure. I saw an angel, of that I'm sure. He smiled at me today, he was all alone today. But I won't lose no sleep on that, cause I've got a plan... You're beautiful! You're beautiful! You're beautiful, its true... I saw your face in an empty place... And I don't know what to do... Cause I'll never be with you... Yes you caught my eye, when you walked on by. You could tell from my face that I was about to cry and I don't think that it'll happen again, but we shared a moment that will last till the end. You're beautiful! You're beautiful! You're beautiful, its true! I saw your face in an empty place... And I don't know what to do, cause I'll never be with you... You're beautiful! You're beautiful! You're beautiful, its true! There must be an angel with a smile on her face... When she thought up that I should be with you... But it's time to face the truth... I will never be with you..." Whoever that song was for, was a lucky son of a bitch. Maybe I could weasel out what made this guy so special when I saw Double D for lunch on Saturday. Andie all but forced us to agree to have lunch and even though I acted a bit annoyed, I wanted to hug that woman and scream 'Thank you' at the top of my lungs until they exploded. I knew she was trying to silently coax Double D in my direction and so far so good, I was just hoping it lasted. I wanted him all to myself, so bad it hurt. Double D looked down at me and smiled that adorable gap-toothed grin and waved. I smiled and waved back wishing I was up there with him.

Saturday Morning

I jolted awake and rubbed one of my eyes while picking up my phone from my nightstand. I had to squint pretty hard to read the name on the screen and clicked call. "Andie, what in the hell could you possibly want at eight in the morning on a Saturday?"

"Well, get your lazy, ginger ass out of bed and meet me outside in ten minutes and I'll tell you."

"Today is my only weekend off until next month. Can't it wait until... I don't know... when I drop Double D off after lunch."

"Yeah, well you see, that's kinda what its about. I thought maybe we could go get breakfast and talk a little about that."

"I think I'll be okay Andie."

"Look, do you want crucial information on how to win over the new Double D or not?" I sat up in bed and stretched out my free arm, yawned and rubbed my eyes. "I'll be down in ten."

"Fantastic! I'll be outside." I hung up and rubbed my eyes, slowly getting out of bed and making my way around my bedroom to get ready. Fifteen minutes later I was showered, dressed and out the door and saw Andie waiting for me in her dark blue '69 Mustang. She stuck her head out the window and I was shocked to see that her once ginger hair was now teal. "Get in Gingersnap! I managed to find a decent cafe in this place that serves coffee that I'm able to choke down." I smirked and shook my head. I hated but at the same time liked the little nick name she gave me. She informed me when we were all hanging out at Double D's that if she hadn't given me a nickname within a day of meeting me, it would've meant she either didn't like me or she wanted to kill me. I slid into the passenger side of her car and yawned wide. "And where might that be?"
