- WOULD EVER BE MY FUCKING BF <33-

Billy (POV BC YYESSS)

I sneak glances at Griffen, hoping he'll turn around and acknowledge my presence. But he doesn't, so I follow the rest of the group to the school. To distract myself, I plug in my headphones and stay a few steps behind. We all split up to go to our lockers, and I do the same. Suddenly, Griffen appears next to me.

"Hey, are you okay?" His voice cuts through my music.

I quickly grab my books and close my locker.

"I'm fine, why?"

Avoiding his gaze, I try to play it cool. But I can feel his eyes on me.

He speaks softly, his eyes scanning my face for a response as he asks, "Did I do something to upset you?"

"No, of course not," I replied. He knows I'm lying, but I don't know how to tell him the truth: I love him.

"I know you're lying, but I also know that you'll tell me when you're ready," he says, stopping for a moment before continuing.

"What are you listening to?"

"The Smiths," I respond with a smile.

"This song reminds me of us." (OMG) I finally blurt out.

"Well then, can I listen too?" he asks.

"YEAH DUH LOL," I say as I hand him one of my earbuds and we listen together.

The song "There is a light that never goes out" plays in our headphones, and I can hear Griffin humming along. I join in, humming along to the melody as well.

Take me out tonight
Take me anywhere, I don't care
I don't care, I don't care
And in the darkened underpass
I thought, "Oh God, my chance has come at last"
But then a strange fear gripped me
And I just couldn't ask

As we walk through the crowded school hallways, our steps falling into sync with the music playing in our ears, I feel a sense of peace wash over me. Griffin's presence beside me feels like a warm embrace, and for a moment, all my worries fade away. We make our way outside to the school courtyard, finding a secluded bench to sit on.

The cool autumn breeze rustles the leaves around us as we sit in comfortable silence, the music still playing softly between us. I steal a glance at Griffin and find him already looking at me, a soft smile playing on his lips.

"You know," he starts, breaking the silence, "I've always felt a special connection with you. It's like we're two pieces of a puzzle that fit perfectly together."

My heart skips a beat at his words, and I muster up the courage to speak. "I feel it too. I've never met anyone who understands me like you do."

Griffin reaches out to take my hand

I couldn't contain my nervous laughter as I shouted, "We're not supposed to be outside!" My face was turning red with embarrassment.

Griffen chuckles, "You don't have to hold my hand, Billy." I feel my cheeks flush with embarrassment. "I know, but I want to," I reply.

"I care for you deeply, Griffin. When you and Vance told me about your feelings, I knew that you liked me. I'm sorry for flirting with Bruce; I was trying to distract myself from my own emotions. But please know, Griffin, that I love you more than anything. If you can't forgive me, I understand." I release the breath I didn't realize I was holding.
