David's POV

I have no idea where Jamie is, five hours passed since I last saw him which was at the GYM. Well he did came in the room, looking miserable and went to the bathroom without a single word. I tried talking to him but he didn't respond so I gave up. When he came out of the bathroom, he just went out the door again.

I can't help but think I messed up our friendship somehow but at the GYM, were we almost kissed, were we would have kissed if that darn phone didn't ring. I had wanted to kiss him again so bad and I don't know why.

I still remember it like it happened a couple minutes ago. Jamie looking at my eyes, then lips and eventually leaning in. My heart beating faster than anything else, I could feel his breath, looking back at me. The world went dark because I closed my eyes. Jamie's lips almost on mine than just like that he was gone.

What is happening to me? How could I be feeling, whatever it is I'm feeling? Could Jamie be feeling the same thing or was that just a day dream? No it was real.

Then a thought occurred to me, what if Jamie was trying to avoid me, what if I'm the reason he's sad. Okay, David do yourself a favour stop thinking about Jamie, then you two go back to being friends and everything goes back to normal.

The door opened and Jamie came in and put something on the table. He was wearing jeans and a hoodie that looked good on him. He stilled looked sad and lost in thought.

"Jamie, are you... Are you okay?" I choked out. He looked up at me, his blue eyes looked like glass and were a little red, a clear indication he had been crying.

"Not really."

Alright a conversation. Sort of. At that moment I was glad he wasn't that type of guy who wouldn't admit to how they feel because of something as petty as pride. It meant he might just tell me the truth.

"Is it... Are we okay?" I said in a rush.

"Yeah... Why would you be asking that?" I let out a breath, I didn't even realise I was holding.

"It's just that when you came in earlier I tried to see if you were okay and you didn't answer."

"Sorry."

"Does it have to do with the reason that you ran out of the GYM earlier?" I ask, curious to see the answer

"Oh, yeah it kind of is. I had to go meet someone." He admitted

"Who were you meeting?"

"Just the English professor, making sure I'm doing my assignments."

English professor, Assignments, he finished everything before he even came to college but if he doesn't want to tell me that's fine, I guess.

"Sorry, I was actually meeting my dad, he probably thinks the only reason I'm here is because there are boys and that I'm just fooling around."

"Oh." I said, I forgot that Jamie was gay and I really don't know how I could have forgotten that. I suddenly remembered the movie we were supposed to go to. "If you don't want to go to the movie night it's fine..."

"And do what?" Think about that disastrous meeting when I could be having fun? No, thank you." He snapped

Jamie's supposed to be the fun one here, not the dark and gloomy.

"Well we're going to need snacks because I ate everything we had." I said jokingly to try and cheer him up.

Yes, a smile. Victory is mine.
