"I love you too," Jake confessed as he leaned in and kissed Johnnie's lips. Johnnie returned the kiss to his best friend and pulled back.

"You mean that? You really do?" Johnnie asked softly. His heart is full of love. Jake nodded. Eyes full of affection, "Of course I do, I love you Johnnie. That's the truth. I can't hide it anymore."

Johnnie smiled widely and tackled Jake down on the couch, showering him with love and kisses.

Jake is laughing as he is holding the emo male on him. "Heyyy!" He laughed. Johnnie pulled back and smiled lovingly down at Jake. "Hiii," he giggled.

Jake leaned in and connected their lips. They softly made out on the couch before they eventually crashed from the drunk buzz. Holding each other as they slept.

The next morning came along and Johnnie was in the kitchen, making himself and Jake some tea.

Jake groaned as he sits up on the couch. rubbing his head, "Johnnie...?" He sleepily mumbled.

Johnnie walked over to the couch with two tea cups. "Hi, love." He greeted and set the cups on the coffee table.

He sits down next to Jake and brushes a strand out of Jake's face.  Jake leaned in and pecked Johnnie's cheek. "We remember,"

Johnnie nodded, "yeah we do. Lucky us" he giggles, "but my head hurts and I bet yours does too so I made some tea."

Jake felt his heart melt. "Thanks hon," he grabbed the teacup and took a slow sip.

"..hot."

Johnnie laughed, "yeah I just made it. Of course it's hot. What day is it today?" He asked.

"Thursday," Jake replied. "I get tested tomorrow morning."

Johnnie nodded, "Yeah, you've been waiting for this awhile, huh?" "Yeah I have, Johnnie. Months. I'm just nervous," Jake sips his tea again.

Johnnie kisses Jake's cheek and picks up his tea cup and drinks his own tea. "don't be nervous babe, I'm sure it'll be okay. I love you."

Jake felt his heart skip a beat at Johnnie's words. "I love you too," he replied.

The couple finished their morning tea and are cuddling on the couch. Sharing kisses and cuddling.

"You haven't been taking any Adderall have you?" Johnnie asked. Jake immediately shakes his head, "No, I threw it out months ago. I've been feeling better since I stopped taking that medication. I was so sick when I was on it. "

Johnnie frowned and rubbed Jake's chest. "Oh I know love, I remember that time you vomited so much we had to take you to the hospital a few months back."

Jake nodded, "Yeah that was the last straw and I just stopped taking it since. It made me ill and I felt like a zombie. I didn't feel like me when I was taking Adderall."

Johnnie kissed Jake's lips. "glad you stopped taking it baby. Do you want me to come with you to get your test done tomorrow? Or do you want to go by yourself?"

Jake smiled,

"I want you to come with me"
