My Only (Boyxboy) [OVERHAUL; ON HOLD]

Third Wheel

(A/N: Aye, look who's back?! I'm just here to let y'all know this chapter is a bit all over the place, but I tried my best to keep it somewhat coherent. So, yeah, enjoy my lovely crap! *waves excitedly*) (Btw, in all seriousness, I use some offensive language in here, so just be warned. Trust me, tho, I cringed typing it out >.< sorry about that)

Jake's POV:

"We kissed."

Justin breathed the two words out slowly. Gauging by the look on his face, he stockpiled his courage to force them out for me to hear.

Honestly, I didn't even know how to respond. It technically was just a dream.

*Bullshit. You know that means something. Stop trying to act so naive.*

I willed myself to seem thoughtful and calm for Justin's benefit.

"O-oh, really?" I stuttered with a complex tone. My effort revealed itself on Justin's face, in his scrunched eyebrows and slightly ajar mouth.

I spoke quickly again, attempting to fill the empty air. "Well, that's quite the dream you were having. But, we need to get you to the nurse. No use in missing more school than what's necessary, I'd say!" I spit out with forced playfulness.

Practically carrying Justin on my shoulder to the nurse, I quickly dropped him off and darted out of the room before any more awkward situations could be established.

*Oh my god... what are you gonna do? He's practically BEGGING for you to just fucking kiss him! What're you gonna do?!*

My brain pelted my consciousness with assaults of Justin's lips engrossing my senses.

I felt sick heading back to the classroom. However, after rounding a corner, I was greeted by possibly the worst sight beyond that of Justin: Jonathan Stewart.

Peril surged through my veins at his head swiveling to face me.

"Well, well, WELL, look at what we have here. How's it going, baby?"

Victoria's POV:

I really wish Justin would just be honest with me. He's hiding something and it's bugging me.

*He's definitely talking to someone else.*

I sighed heavily, leaning on my desk. Finishing my final period today was my only concern. With my cheek resting on my fist, I daydreamed out to the lightly bent trees surrounding the school.

Justin, especially today, has been out of sync. Just this morning he was hugging me one minute, then tearing off the next, pouncing through the school. I tried to forget about his distractedness, yet, it creeped up on us during lunch, too.

After arriving at the lunch table, I noticed Justin trailing his peas around with his spoon, a hard, calculating look painted on his face.

He didn't even talk to me throughout lunch, except for the occasional nod or grunt of confirmation at my words.

*You need to talk to him. Today. Figure out why he's holding himself back. Maybe it has something to do with Jake? He hasn't been looking in the best of shapes, either.*

I remembered that Jake doesn't even seem to be close to me anymore, and I can't tell you the last time we actually spoke.

I took in a breath.

*Just take a break. Go to the bathroom, get a drink from the water fountain, and finish today off right. Its Friday, why not try to enjoy it?*

With my resolute mind made up, I raised my hand, asked to leave, retrieved the hall pass, and stepped out quickly.
