Summer of Unexpectance (BoyxBoy)

Confessions

After Jack's departure, the boys continued to play various games on Jay's playstation. Nash and Hayes in particular, were taking turns playing Grand Theft Auto V, whilst Carter and Matt laughed at all the stupid things they were doing in the game. Cameron had left early to go get rest for their video shoot tomorrow, although he said he'd be back bright and early at twelve noon for them to start with their errands.

Taylor was playing Uno with Daniel in the kitchen, and trying to comfort the latter. Jack had been pretty neglectful towards Daniel, and Taylor was going to find out why.

"So.. how are you feeling with the whole Jack/Mia thing that happened?" he asked, drawing from the game deck.

"I'm over it." Daniel replied simply, shaking his head, "It's nothing."

"What happened back there wasn't exactly nothing. I know you just met us and all, but you can't go wrong letting your feelings out to someone once in a blue."

Daniel sighed, and set down his pile of cards onto the table, "I've kind of gotten feelings for Jack. I feel like something's there, especially when he flirts back with me, and even calls me cute. Now whenever he's with Mia, it's like I don't exist."

Taylor nodded his head, "I understand. Have you directly asked him how he's felt?"

"No, there's no need to. He's in a relationship, it's pretty clear in which direction he's headed."

"Then you'll never know. It's a scary thing really. You know, telling someone how you feel, or what they do that bothers you. The biggest fear in it is fear of change. But if there's one thing I know about Jack, he's the sweetest guy on Earth. If he does like you, it's probably confusing him. I've never heard of him liking guys before, but you can never rule out a possibility." Taylor said reassuringly.

Daniel smirked, "Thanks, you're right. I'm just gonna give him some space."

"That's exactly what you should do. Too much space is bad though."

"Can I ask you something?" Taylor asked, looking up at Daniel.

"Shoot."

"What's the deal with Shawn and Jay?" he asked, looking over at the two; they were having their own conversation in the living room with the other boys, "I've never seen Shawn so happy. When Jay left to take you home, he was so sad."

"To be quite honest, I believe Shawn might like Jay." Daniel replied, "I hope so too."

"Why do you say that? Is the feeling mutual?"

"Jay's been through hell and back at least a dozen times. He needs to be happy, and I think this might make him happy." Daniel explained.

"Shawn's so awkward with this crush."

"I can see. It's like he doesn't know what to do or say, it's adorable." Daniel replied, "There's just one problem."

"Which is?"

"I think Cam is jealous." Daniel stated, "I haven't told anyone that theory, so don't repeat it."

"Scout's honor." Taylor said, raising three fingers, "That explains why Cam has been treating him way different lately."

"Differently?"

"Yeah, he's more like cold with him. I felt so bad.. Shawn thinks he did something wrong, and that Cam is angry at him for it. But why would Cam be jealous?" Taylor asked, adjusting his purple bandana.

"I mean.. he kind of did introduce us to you guys. Maybe he feels like Shawn is taking his friend away?"

"But it's only been two days." Taylor said.
