-------

You know when you get into a fight with your friend, and you just know this time, this one is bad. That it will forever burn. No matter the amount of remorse. Or the copious amount of apologies and forgiveness. Yeah, that's how both Sam and Colby felt.

It started off as a joke, a joke about Colby being gay, because he had broken up with his girlfriend and hadn't started dating, even though it had been months.

That was harmless, they always made gay jokes with each other. I mean their fans and friends shipped them anyways, so that wasn't the problem, at least not in this case. Instead it was when Sam said something, that kind of hit Colby where it needed to hurt.

"It's not like you're gay, that would be weird."

That wouldn't have hurt so much, if Colby wasn't genuinely questioning his sexuality. If he wasn't genuinely questioning if he liked his best friend.

So that's where the fight started.

"What do you mean? It's weird to be gay?" Colby asked, he knew Sam wasn't homophobic, but he didn't know what Sam meant.

"No," Sam confirmed, "It would be weird if you were gay. Since y'know..."

Colby questioned coldly, "No, Sam, I don't 'know'."

"Just like, all the girls and stuff..." Sam said. Trying to sound convincing, it wasn't working.

"Oh c'mon Sam! I know that's not what you were thinking!" He raised his voice at the blond boy. Who stayed quiet.

"What? Would you think I was in love with you or something. You think I'd make it weird. Maybe I'd hit on you, but "you're not gay" and you don't want that." Colby sneered, making Sam step back, "Are you THAT full of yourself that you think I'd be in love with you!"

"It's just-"

"No Sam! Maybe I am gay, or bi. But if I ever did like you, those feelings have definitely completely passed. Trust me. Why is it so weird that I may be gay?!"

Sam was at a loss for words, he didn't know what to say to his fuming friend. Who had kind of just admitted that he wasn't straight.

"... are you saying you aren't... straight?" He murmured, trying not to piss off his best friend even more.

"Yeah, I'm not, wow, how horrible." Colby spoke bitterly, rolling his eyes, and walking off. Probably heading to his room.

He didn't listen to the blonde's protests, he just slammed his door behind him and turned the music in his AirPods up to the max. Ignoring the banging and concern of his friend. Sam, instead of leaving and waiting it out, sat outside of Colby's room. Not wanting to lose his friend over something stupid that he had said.

~

After a couple of hours, in which Colby had fallen asleep, Sam was able to sneak his way into the room, using his expert lock picking skills, of 'the doors in the house having faulty locks'.

He looked at his sleeping friend who was listening to some random music, probably from the 2000's, knowing him. Instead of waking him, he laid down next to him on the bed, and scooted closer to him. Nearly cuddling up to him. Then he closed his eyes. Hoping that when Colby woke up, he could try to get his friend back.

Though he knew, something about that fight would some what always sting them both. For Colby it would be "it would be weird if you were gay." and for Sam it would be, "But if I ever did like you, those feelings have definitely completely passed."

To be completely honest, Sam had never really thought of his friend ship with Colby being anything more. I mean obviously when Solby would be brought up he'd think of his life, had he instead dated Colby instead of be-friending him. But that was it.

Except when he heard those words, it hit him much harder than to probably should have. And it made him realize how he wasn't actually scared of Colby being gay. He was scared of realizing that he, himself, might be gay.

I mean he had dated women, and genuinely loved some of them, but maybe he genuinely loved Colby too. That scared him the most.

Before he could distract himself with any other gay thoughts he felt movement right next to him. Colby was awake. And suddenly Sam was very very interested in getting out of that room. After his kind of gay realization, he wanted to be far from the boy who confused him.

"Sam?" Colby mumbled, looking groggily at the boy right next to him. Sam's face heated up as he struggled to find the words.

"Hello? What are you doing here?" Colby asked, normally Sam would come in his room and do stuff like this, but while they were fighting? And with Sam looking like he was going to explode from embarrassment?

"I-....... Sorry." Sam said, as he bolted out of the room. Trying not to cry or let alone scream at his thoughts.

'Why is his voice like that-' , sure Sam had heard Colby's morning voice, he heard it everyday, but after coming to the realization that he was... somewhat attracted to his best friend, yeah that was nearly unbearable.

Colby just sat in his room. Highly confused. Not even caring about the fight anymore. More so caring about why his friend ran out of his room looking like a Taki chip. (When I first tried Takis I threw up for 2 days... probably cus of the red 40-)

Colby decided to confront Sam himself, knowing that he should probably apologize for yelling anyways. So he pushed himself off of his bed and headed to the room right next to his.

Sam had his head shoved in a pillow, very clearly embarrassed, trying to shake any strange thoughts from his head.

"Hey," Colby spoke, reaching his head in the door, "are you okay?" Sam mumbled something into the pillow, but it was completely muffled.

"Uhm, I don't know what you said, but I just wanted to..." Colby exhaled, "I wanted to apologize, because I was just stressed about your reaction to me maybe... liking guys, and I shouldn't have yelled, it's just... I'm sorry."

Sam stuck his head up from the pillow.

"I said 'I'm fine.'" He nodded, turning to look at the brunette standing in the doorway.

"What?"

"Earlier, when my head was in the pillow, I said 'I'm fine'" Colby looked at Sam kind of funny. But Sam open his mouth to speak.

"That isn't important, sorry, you have no need to apologize, I don't know why I worded it that way. You know I could only ever be supportive to you. Even if you did like me-..." he paused, his heart aching from Colby's words earlier.

"Even if you did like me, there was no reason for me to react like that. Gosh, i'm sorry Colbs, I don't even know why I said it. It's just all I could say. You know I love you man. No matter if you're gay, or straight, or bi, or whatever."

Colby looked up in Sam's eyes and reached out his arms to hug him. Which Sam gladly accepted.

"Friends again?"

"Were we ever, not friends?" Sam asked.

Colby shook his head at this and laughed, whispering 'no', into Sam's ear.

And then, right then, Sam knew for sure. He loved Colby.
