Based of the song by glass animals <3

---------

Colby looked at his best friend, who was asleep right next to him. Curled up in a ball, on the couch. That night he and Colby had been watching a movie. He had fallen asleep half way through the movie.

Colby himself was in love with Sam

He had come to terms with that two days ago. When Sam had brought home a girl. They never got farther than making out before Sam told her to leave.

He said something about not really liking her. Something like that.

I'll begin at the beginning, you met in New York City

Kansas Colby thought, remembering meeting Sam for the first time.

He always fell asleep just before the movie finished

Colby thought about the lyrics brushing his hands through his best friends hair.

Maybe you're a fool, but he loved you
And he loved you in a T-shirt, mmh

He brushed his hands over his friend's soft features. Wanting to lean forward and kiss him.

Now you're coming back to show us that, girl

Sam had brought home a couple girls in the past, to forget or whatever, but they never really did anything. At least to Colby's knowledge anyways.

So roll those credits 'cause the sequel's gonna hurt,

If he told Sam how he felt. Oh the sequel was going to hurt. Sam could never feel the same. Sam was straight. Those random girls were a deep reminder.

Show pony, make it burn
Smile as the knife is turned
Show pony making a return
As we make our way through the universe

I'll always be in your universe Sam. Always. No matter what.

I guess he's right that you live and learn

I have learned. The last time I told a guy I liked him. I got slapped and he never talked to me again.

So blindsided by the truth

Or the lies. The lies saying he was talking to a girl. Or was straight.

In some way, I was sure you knew
In some way, I wish he did.

Two-dimensional, when's it gonna end?
Maybe when you're dead?

Won't stop loving you till I die Samuel

Maybe you're a fool, but he loved you
And he loved you in a T-shirt, mmh

I loved you. And I still do.

All those nights he left you and me
There was nothing left of you, but he squeezed
All those times he did what he pleased
Boy, those scars must really run deep

Been through so much together Sam, I couldn't bare to lose you. No for a second. So I shall lie. We can talk about love. How we miss some of our friends. How we felt abused and used by some of them(I'm watching you Elton). How we will always be by each others side. But I will never admit the truth. I can't.

I guess he's right that you live and learn

I guess he's right that you live and learn.

Colby thought through the lyrics of the song. Thinking about how he hurts. How he loves Sam but could never tell him. How he feels inclined to kiss him when he see's his face. How he will forever protect him no matter any entity or spirit that tracks them

Sam and Colby vs The world

Always. Always the two of them. All of that unrequited love. All of the lies to hide the truth. All of the ways I've lived. Al the ways I've learned.
Him right by my side always.

Show pony, make it burn
Smile as the knife is turned
Show pony making a return
As we make our way through the universe
Show pony making it burn
That's how revenge is served
Make it so cold that it hurts
I guess he's right that you live and learn

Colby could feel Sam shift in his arms. Waking up. He looked up into his best friends eyes lovingly. And Colby knew, he could never hurt this boy. He could never tell him. Because he didn't know what would happen. And he could never hurt or worry his best friend.

His everything, in his arms, looking up at him, snuggling closer to him.

He would never be able to tell him how deep his love went. Knowing that they could be left with no love left.

Well at least none on the blondes side. Colby doesn't think he could ever not love Sam. He would always care for that boy.

"Colby?" Sam spoke, just a whisper, but Colby hear it all behind those glistening blue eyes.

"I love you."

Two-dimensional, when's it gonna end?
Maybe when you're dead?

Not now. But maybe when we're dead. I can finally tell you the truth. I can finally admit that I truly do...

"I love you too Sam."

"More than you could know."
