Title of this chapter: Confusion.
Lukes POV:
Everything is so confusing, Zander has been a bit distant recently without Jake. I might have to speak to him just incase of anything bad thats happening to him to see if he's okay. Though, I can't seem to find him.. maybe he's at the rooftop?
I go to the rooftop, I expected to see Zander there or just the place being empty but instead I see Jake there looking down at the floor. My eyes lit up as I saw him, I ran and tapped on his shoulder. I seem to have startled him, I back up a bit so he wouldn't hit me by accident as he turned.
"Hey Jake! How are you, and what are you up to?" I asked as I looked at him straight into his eyes.
"Oh- hi L-Luke!!!" He stuttered as he looked a bit panicked.
I didn't know why he was panicked, but I wanted to know how he felt and what he was doing right now, did I say something out of the ordinary? I hope not.
"Wanna hangout?-" I said before getting inturruptes by Jake.
"AH I totally forgot, I have something to do, sorry maybe later?.." he said, clearly nervous.
"Jake, wai-" I was gonna say something but he just stormed out.
Thats it, I've had enough of Jake avoiding both me and Zander. If he's going through something then we'll go through it together.
I chased Jake down, following till the hallway.. he stopped, he ran out of breath.
"Jake, you've been down for weeks..please, just tell me what's wrong. I want to help you." I said, also out of breath as I grabbed his arm to prevent him from running away.
"I..I can't tell you..I'm not ready, I'm sorry.." he replied, I felt sort of betrayed. I don't know why though, if he doesn't want to share whats happening then I should just let him be. But its been almost a month since he avoided us, it's seriously bothering me. I don't want to pressure him but I want to know more about what's going on so I can help him.
I let go of his arm, I felt like giving up but another part of me told me to keep trying. I turned and walked away.
As I kept on walking I accidentally bumped into someone, it seemed like I was so out of my zone I didn't realize where I was going. I looked up and I see Zander, thank god I can at least talk to someone that won't avoid the heck out of me.
"Oh, hey Zander. Sorry for bumping into you" I said as I extend my hand for him to get up.
"It's fine, don't worry so much about it. I'm alright." He said as he grabbed my hand so he could get up.
I thought of something, yet I sort of hesitated and thought what Zander would reply with what I would have to say. "So uh.. I talked to Jake today" I said as I looked at him, expecting anything of what I just thought.
"Oh? What happened? Did he crack??" He questioned.
I replied with "No, not really but if I'm correct he will tell us when we're ready."
Zander sort of looked disappointed and I felt awful, I just wish that Jake would come and just talk about what's going on.. but of course, I can't just force him. I have to let him come to us by himself.
I was lost in my thoughts and it seemed like Zander was too, until he said "Maybe we're the problem?"
I was shocked, Zander would never say that unless he felt really bad.
"But that won't stop me from trying to make that asshole feel better." He said in an irritated tone of voice.
"Zander, it's hopeless. Jake won't even talk to us so how are we suppose to make him feel better-" I said before getting inturrupted by Zander.
"Darling, I won't let you or Jake get discouraged. I want both of you to be happy. Both of you made me feel this way and I won't let it go to waste." He inturrupted as he looked at me, now calmer than usual.
Wait.. what does he mean by "both of you made me feel this way and I won't let it go to waste." what does he mean by that? Did me and Jake make him feel in some specific way? It must be an important feeling cause he's really determind.
I sighed and gave into Zander's actions on trying to make Jake feel better, I just wish Jake would have dealt his little problem better than he is dealing with it now.
"Fine, let's go find Jake and make sure he's alright. If I'm correct at this time he's most likely at the music club but since he's not going there as often then he's probably somewhere in the hallways." I explained as I looked at Zander, making sure he listened to everything I said.
Zander nodded and took my hand and we started walking together, trying to find Jake so we could talk to him.
We looked almost every hallway, we were so close on giving up until we found him just leaning on a random locker.
"Jake!" Zander yelled out as he ran to him.
Jake stopped leaning agaisnt the locker and and stood up properly, now looking at Zander.
"Oh- uhm" Jake tried to figure out what to say but he seemed to have nothing in mind, but I just walked up to them and stood there waiting for Zander to say something.
"Okay.. Jake, I know it's personal to you, but Luke and I want to help you with whatever it is. If it's about us, we'll try not to bother you." He said in a disappointed tone.
My eyes widened slightly but didn't say anything to not worsened the situation.
"Wait! No, its nothing negative I swear!.. I- well.." Jake said, trying to figure out something to say.
"It is about the two of you, but it's the exact opposite of what you think! I swear on my life it's nothing bad." He added.
"Again, I'm not ready to say it yet. Please just give me time." He pleaded.
I look at Zander and Zander is just looking at him like he was inspecting his actions, I tap on his shoulder a bit. Zander looks at me with the face he always has when he either wins a game or figures out a really hard puzzle. I tilt my head in slight confusion.
Not even moments later I get pulled in by Zander and he decides to drag me to a classroom.
"Zander, where are we going?" I asked in a rather confused tone of voice.
"We need to talk, Luke." He responded as we entered an empty classroom.
Oh, here we go.
"I might know what Jake may be hiding from us, but I have confirm it. If not possible I'll let Jake confess himself and see if my assumptions are right." He said he as sat on top of a table.
I looked around the room realizing we're in science class, I then asked "Zander, what do you mean? I'm confused."
He responded "Oh, sorry. I think Jake has a crush on us."
"You what?! We don't know if that's true, even if it was he knows *WE'RE* dating. We don't even know if we are poly or if Jake is poly." I said as my eyes widened
It all makes sense now, but why would Zander still make such assumptions?
Zander then replied with "I mean, we can try it out.. now looking at how we acted around him it was like he was our third boyfriend, you get what I mean?" He explained.
I thought about it real hard for a moment and saw that he was right, like he usually is.
"So, question.. how would this work out?" I asked.
"We wait for him to figure out everything, let him process his feelings and everything else." He replied as he grabbed my hand gently.
I smiled at Zander, not knowing what was gonna happen next.
