From Friends To Forever (BL)

Chapter 19 : The Crazy Family

Kylan's POV

"So... what do you think?" He asked. Well honestly, I didn't know what to think. 

I am too late with this stupid crush of mine, aren't I? Why couldn't I have just confessed earlier? Even a day before? But I only really discovered this today! What could I have done? Plus between me and Autumn, who do you think would Jason choose? Of course it's Autumn, you idiot! I should've never helped him woo her. Did I even help? 

I know what I should've done! I should've met him earlier! Should've met him before he developed this stupid crush on Autumn and charmed my way into his heart and made him my boyfriend and never let him breakup with me. Ugh! This is driving me NUTS!

"I see. You hate the idea." Jason said. While I was having a mental battle with myself, Jason took my silence as a negative response. "But why? I thought we reached our goal. I thought you'd be happy that you don't need to help me anymore."

Have I really made it seem like I hate the idea of helping him so much?

"I don't hate the idea, Jason." I said, suddenly feeling overwhelmed with a surge of emotions. I swallowed a lump in my throat. "I just..."

"Then why do you look so sad?" He asked. How can this boy read me so well?

"Because." I said with my voice cracking up. Not now, emotions! "Because you came to me for help with her. And now that that's over, I guess we don't need to hang out anymore."

"What?" He asked. Seriously what? Even I don't know what I'm saying. "You think we were just hanging out because I needed your help?"

"Well... that's why you approached me, didn't you?" I said looking down at my lap, hating the way my voice sounds like a sad little puppy.

"Yeah. But like- we became good friends after that, right?" Jason asked. "Am I not your best friend Kylan? Or at least a good friend?"

"You are." I said looking at him. I took his hands in mine and there was a slight hint of tears at the corners of my eyes. "You're my best friend. But I thought now that you've got Autumn, you wouldn't wanna hang out with me anymore."

"What? Why would you think that?" He asked looking astonished, but touched at the same time.

"I don't know." I muttered under my breath as he pulled me into a hug. We sat there in that awkward position hugging for minutes before he let go and we got back to our seats. I started driving again while I turned on the music system in my car and playing One Direction to fill in the silence. Jason shot me a smile as he vibed to the music, while I drove to his place.

"This is quite literally a palace!" I said as we stepped out of my car. As I entered this area, I had a hunch that his house is gonna be somewhat exotic, but this was beyond my imagination. This is probably the best house in this whole area. We were currently in his garage, and among the several other expensive cars, mine felt disturbingly out of place.

"Oh please!" Jason said as he dragged me inside. "This house might look like a palace, but the people inside are hardly close to anything like royalty." As we were walking, he stopped mid stride. "Which reminds me; see, the plan is we go inside, you introduce yourself and then we go upstairs. Keep is as simple as possible, or else the conversation might stretch overnight. My family can be a little crazy."

"You're scaring me." I said.

"I am scared myself, trust me." He said as he pressed the bell and a guy, presumably a butler, opens the door. We head inside.
