Merome Fanfic: Lost In His Eyes

Chapter: 1

Mitch's POV

 I walked into jeromes house following directly behind him. I met Jerome at a party through mutual friends a few weeks ago, and today we decided to go to his place and hang out. It was a little stange at first being friends with a furry animal but now im totally cool with it and he is a really nice guy. I followed Jerome into the kitchen where he quickly dug through the fride and pulled out some food. He soon pulled out...omg is that a raw fish?

"um, jerome?" he looked up, "arent you going to cook that first?" 

"wha..? OH i forgot you're a person lololollolol sorry how about some mushroom stew then. that sound good?" 

"yeah that sounds great thanks" he turned around and pulled a great big bowl of stew out of the fridge, it look delicious and quite tasty actually. we chatted while making our food and then moved to the living room. as i sat down i looked to my right and saw a photo on a little stand of Jerome kissin the forehead of what looked like a fish...... wait what? was Jerome gay? 

"oh woops i thought i threw out all those pictures" he turned bright red as u picked up the photo and carried it to the trash can. he looked very broken hearted.

Jerome' POV

I was close to tears when i sat back down on the couch... i sighed and looked at Mitch. He had a sad look on his face.

"biggums? are you ok?" He rubbed my back when i didnt reply. "Who was that guy in the picture?... is he-is he your boyfriend Jerome?" I looked up, embarrassed.

"I'M SORRY I'M SO SORRY JUST SEEING THAT PICTURE MAKE ME THINK OF MY MUDKIPZ." i threw my face into a pillow. "im sorry ill just go get cleaned up...." i started to walk toward the bathroom, all the while shielding my face from him.

Mitch stood up, "no, wait. its ok, i recently broke up with my girlfriend. we are on the same boat buddy." He walked over to me and gave me a big hug, it felt nice and warm. And you know what? for the first time since Quintin left me, i felt like i had somebody i could talk to. someone to share my feelings with. A few moments passed and i nearly whimpered when Mitch let go of me. 

"Listen Jerome," he held my head in his hands and looked my straight in the eye. "I haven't known your for very long but you can tell me anything. and i know we will become great friends from this moment on."  Just as I was about to reply, I heard a knock at the door and the voice of my good friend Adam. 

"oh, Adam is here. you will like him hes really funny." I swiftly wipe the final tear off my face and turn the door handle. When i opened the door Adam was posing like a sexy biotch and his "friend" (i swear they are secretly in love) Ty was looking shy as usual behind him. "oh hey guys!" Adam looked past me at Mitch who was awkwardly standing a few blocks from the front door. "UGHHHHWWW JEROME WHY DID U INVITE YOUR BOYFRIEND OVER NOW ALL UR GONNA DO IS MAKE OUT THX A LOT THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE JUST THE THREE OF US." Adam made a pouty face at me, but i knew he was only joking. lol I could almost smell Mitch's embarrassment.

Mitch's POV

I swear everyone could smell my embarrassment. I cant believe these two just show up right when I'm about to make my moves on Jerome. ugh im so stupid i shouldn't even have brought up my ex girlfriend now he thinks I'm straight. The strangers standing on Jerome's porch were very odd looking, one had swoopy emo hair and a headset and the other had curly hair and was wearing a gold amulet. He must be Adam. Adam interrupts me mid-thought when he lunges forward and furiously shakes my hand.

"Hi I'm Sky but you can call me Adam :3"

"uh hi I'm Mitch, and I'm not Jerome's boyfriend." I glance at Jerome who has a sad look in his eyes. did I say something wrong? 

Adam looked surprised, "oh, well in that case, welcome to team crafted." I was about to ask what team crafted was but he interrupted me, "team crafted is us and a few other friends who all hang out and compete in mini games like Hunger Games." Wow, so these guys are all on a team, cool. 

"Wait, your just going to accept me into the team? you hardly know me." 

"Any friend of Jerome's in a friend of mine" :D

"And mine" the voice startled me but i quickly realized that it was the other guy. "Hi Im Ty, nice to meet you." He had a very quiet voice but he seemed nice.

"Nice to meet you too," i replied. Just then, i glanced up to see Jerome staring straight at me. he looked at his feet as soon as i noticed though. This had me thinking, does he like me?
