Sam's POV.

"Jack?" He looks up from his phone.

"What?" I sit down next to him and sigh.

"What's wrong?" I ask. He sighs.

"Mark kissed me." I look at him.

"Oh."

"Oh? That's all you have to say?!"

"Jack calm down. What the hell is so bad about that?"

"You hate him, Sam. You don't even care? I like someone else, I don't want to like Mark, I can't- I just.."

"Hey, it's okay. I don't hate him anymore... We talk okay? I should have told you but I didn't. You can't just ignore him either, he's your partner for a project. Talk to him." He nods and gets up.

"Where are you going?"

"To find Mark, duh."

"Okay, text me what happens."

Jack's POV.

I see Mark with his group of friends and start to walk over but I stop. I pull out my phone and scroll through my contacts.

"I wonder why I haven't got any text from my secret admirer.." I click Mark's contact name and send him a message.

Hey we need to talk, okay? Please come see me by the big tree at the back of the school.

I get a text back.

Okay.

I start walking to the tree and sit down. A few minutes later I hear foot steps.

"Jack?"

"Sit." He sits down next to me.

"What did you wanna talk about?" I sigh.

"Don't play dumb."

"Look Jack, I don't know what came over me but I kissed you and I'm sorry for that, okay? I didn't mean it. It meant nothing, now can I go?" He gets up and starts to walk but I stop him.

"Mark wait- I just- I wasn't mad, I just didn't- I didn't understand why you did it and then I panicked because I didn't want to have a crush on you or something and i just- I don't know.." He turns around.

"Why would you be scared to have a crush on me?"

"I don't know, I just don't want to develop feelings and then we go out and we can never come out to the school because you can't handle losing your stupid friends or everybody judging you because you have to be fucking perfect!" I tell him and immediately regret what I said, covering my mouth.

"Fuck you jack." He walks away and I sit back down.

"God damnit."

Sam's POV.

"Sam we need to talk." I see Mark walking toward me an I nod, following him.

"About what?"

"I kissed Jack." I nod.

"I know, he told me."

"Did he says that he hates me? Because it sure seems like it." I shake my head.

"No he just- I really don't know how to explain it. He doesn't want to develop feelings with someone like...you."

"He told me that. He yelled at me and said he would never want to develop feelings for me because we would never be able to come out to the school cause I'm to scared to lose my friends and I have to be, and I quote, 'fucking perfect.'"

"He yelled at you?" He nods.

"Sam, I love him so much. He's never going to like me, I fucked everything up."

"Well, you need to think about whether you would rather have your group of fake friends and be 'popular' or have Jack like you and be in your arms at night."

"I want... Jack, but I don't know how to- ugh!" He throws his hands in the air, cussing.

"Mark, calm."

"No! How can I be calm when I can't even make the correct decisions?! Let alone tell my 'friends' to fuck off! I can't even tell the person I'm in love with that I want them, I need them. The person I love fucking hates me and you want me to be calm?!?" I walk over to Mark and hug him.

"I'm sorry, just please stop. We'll fix it together, okay?" He nods an let's go.

"Sam, I love Jack so much and I don't know what to do."

"You need to take your other phone out and keep texting him secretly. He likes that and he keeps talking about how he hates it when he doesn't get a good morning and good night text or anything."

"Okay." He gets out his other phone and sends him a message.

"Thank you." I nod.

Jack's POV.

Message from: M

Hey beautiful, sorry I haven't talked to you in a while, I've been busy. Anything new happen?

It's fine, and no. Not really.

Well that sucks. Anyway, how are you and Mark?

I don't want to talk about it.

Really? You can't even tell me what happened?

Well we kinda just had a misunderstanding I guess. I yelled somethings I regret and every thing, but I hope we're still friends.

Oh, that sucks. Bye babe, have a wonderful day. xx

I smile to myself and put the phone down, unpausing the movie.
