Friend {Poofless}

A/N
This chapter is so awkward omg

"A- a what?" He stutters shattering my heart seeing tears in his eyes. I just did this. I'm going to get myself arrested because I told Preston my secret. I might break my friendship with Lachlan and Mitch. What if they find out Jay kept me a secret and arrest him too? I'll have nothing left in life.

"I- I'm sorry Preston. Don't bother finding me. Call the police. Fine. They won't find me. I'be done this millions of times before. I know secrets about this city they don't so call them. Do it. Leave me and go back to your YouTuber life. I'm leaving."

"You think I enjoy my life?!" Preston shouts back making me stop in my tracks. "I hate my life! I never knew how much making people smile would take out of me! I rarely get any sleep and I have a major migraine 24/7. I find one person that's special to me and he turns out to be someone he's not. You think I'm just going to call the police? I keep my promises and I promised I wouldn't tell anyone. Yes, I think what you're doing is wrong I mean you're a fucking criminal, Rob! But don't throw your accusations at me because other people in your life have fucking failed you! Maybe I'm not that type of person. Okay?" By the end we were both out of breath for yelling.

Thank God for sound proof walls. "I'm sorry, Preston." I tell him trying to calm down my pounding headache. "I've built so many walls over the years it's just when someone knocks them I tend to push them out, but most run away on their own. I guess you're not one of them." He grabs my hand not bothering to make eye contact. It's a lot for both of us to take in so I don't blame him.

"It's different having a boyfriend who's a criminal. I care about you Rob. Too much to let you go." He kisses my cheek making me blush a bit.
"I care about you too Preston."

After a while of just sitting in a comforting silence Preston speaks up asking, "tell me about your friends. Are they criminals like you?" He asks and I nod.
"Yeah. There's Lachlan who just left the country. It's a really long story, but he and I were best friends. He's nice and seems brutal and heartless but after a few days he'll warm up and you'd like him. He uh, met this one guy and they hated each other so much." I light heartedly laugh thinking about Vik and Lachlan right now. They're probably in London right now causing trouble. "But soon they actually warmed up to each other and next thing I know I see them running down the staircase with a stack of cash saying they're leaving." He lets out a small laugh at the end and I smile.

"Then there's Mitch. That's the reason I don't want you to meet him. He's brutal and he isn't like Lachlan who'll warm up. But he's very confident and ballsy. He's a bit bossy... or really bossy, but without Lachlan and I, he'd be nothing."
"He sounds kind of cool." Preston comments and I shrug.
"You could say that. You and him seem nothing alike although I'm probably wrong." Preston shakes his head.
"No. I'm not bossy at all and I'm definitely not confident."

"What about you? What's it like bing a YouTuber?"
"It's hard from time to time, but it's really fun overall. Meeting fans, but it gets lonely from time to time." I sigh nodding since I know where's he coming from. Being me can get a bit lonely since Mitch is always roaming around the city and Lachlan is always training or something. I'm the one who goes from city to city picking up deliveries or something. "You know, you could be a YouTuber. I can see you as a gamer one though. You have the voice, you seem to know your stuff about games and you have the personality." That's a good thing right? It must be.

"That's sounds cool, but I've never done it before."
"I can show you the ropes." Preston smirks and I just roll my eyes.
"What if someone recognizes me?" I ask thinking about someone telling the cops.
"Don't worry. Just use a gamer tag. You know how you left Woof as your contact name? Make something out of that, and just don't show your face. I doubt people will recognize you voice."
"Okay. But I can't just setup everything in my house. I mean Mitch wouldn't allow it and he's kind of the leader."

"Move to Texas with me. The apartment across from mine should be for sale. I bet if I recommend you to the landlord and you offer a fair price he'd let you take it."
"Okay. That sounds kind of cool. But what about Mitch. He definitely wouldn't let me leave especially since Lachlan is gone."

"Don't tell him. You can sneak in your house right? Rob, you don't have to do this if you don't want to. I totally understand."
"No. I want to be with you Preston. I know we haven't known each other for a long time, but something is just telling me to go for it and I know someone like you will never come across me again." Preston takes my hand kissing me softly.

"I feel the same way about you."
"Okay then. Let's leave."
