We Both Felt this Pain

Chapter 5: Confession

Zane's POV
My eyes fluttered open as the light coming from Lloyd's windows shined into the room. I looked down at Lloyd, who was clinging onto me with his small arms. I grinned. For the Green Ninja, we was quite small. He was the smallest out of all of us, actually, at the height of 5'5. I, on the other hand was the tallest, with a height of 6'2.
I looked over at the clock on Lloyd's bedside table. It read 8:00am. I decided to get up, knowing that I should probably start breakfast before everyone woke up. I got to my feet, slowly unclinging Lloyd's arms. Then I grabbed one of his pillows and placed it where I was, just so he won't wake up wondering were I am. Then I tip toed out the door and made my way downstairs.
It was beautiful this morning. The sun was shining brightly in the blue sky. All I could hear was the sound of the morning birds chirping on a tree branch. I quickly got into the kitchen and pulled out the things I needed. I pack of raw bacon, some eggs, some pancake mix and a pack of sausages. I also got out a frying pan, a tray, some plates and forks and knives.
Authors note: I don't know if I'm saying the cooking directions right, so don't hate me!
The first thing I did was open the pack of bacon, pull out all the bacon, and placed it neatly on the tray. Then I set the oven to the proper temperature and placed the bacon inside. Then I took out the sausages and put them on the pan. I turned the hot surface and started cooking the sausages, the smell of the frying meat filling the air. As I was cooking, Lloyd suddenly crossed my mind. "Why would I be thinking about him right now?" I thought to myself. Then I suddenly thought about what happened yesterday. The way he came to me when Nya was hurting his wrist. It made me feel happy. He.....made me feel happy. Then I finally came up with a conclusion.
I do like Lloyd.

Lloyd's POV
I woke up slowly, with the sun shining directly in my eyes. I moaned and let out a little yawn. Then I noticed that I had my arms clinging around a pillow instead of Zane. "Hmm, where'd he go?" I thought. Then I suddenly started smelling bacon and cooking meat coming from the kitchen. Zane must of started breakfast early this morning.
I slowly got out of bed and made my way downstairs. When I got down there, the dinning room table was already set up with plates, forks, knives and napkins. I looked over and saw Zane in the kitchen, placing what looked like eggs on everyone's plates.
"What's the special occasion?" I asked. I noticed that Zane jumped a little. I probably suprised him.
"Oh, Lloyd! I t-thought you wouldn't be up in a while" Zane said, facing me.
"Well, the sun was kinda bugging me, so I decided to get up" I replied. Zane smiled back at me.
"Well, now that you're here, you can just relax until breakfast is ready" my nindroid friend suggested.
"O-Okay" I stammered. I then placed myself down on a couch in the living room.
I thought kept nagging at my head. It had been bothering me ever since I went to bed last night. It was true that I liked Zane. As in liked, liked, Zane! At first I didn't believe it, but the closer I bonded with him, the more feelings I grew for him. I then tried to make the nervousness in my stomach disappear and I swallowed the lump in my throat as I walked up to him.
"Z-Zane, can I t-talk to you?" I asked nervously. The nindroid turned his head away from cooking.
"Of course. What's up?" he asked. I was sweating like a pig, but luckily Zane didn't notice.
"I-I've been wanting to t-tell you something for a w-while now..." I trailed off. Zane said nothing, but smiled, waiting for an answer.
"I-I........l-like you, Zane" I said finally. Zane raised his eyebrows, completely taken by surprise.
"H-How so?" he asked.
"More then a brother or a friend" I replied.
"W-Well......t-that leads me t-to something I want to say" Zane said. Hope suddenly filled my chest.
"I......like you, too, Lloyd" he said.
"You do?!" I cried out cheerfully.
"Y-Yeah. Ever since you told me to stay with you that one night, I-I been growing feelings for you" Zane said.
"Really? Me too...." I trailed off. Then he suddenly pulled me into a hug and I hugged him tightly back. Then I felt him plant a small kiss on my forehead. That made me blush madly.
"So.....do we tell the others?" I asked.
"I don't think so. Let's just give it a little time first. Besides, I should probably finish for them anyways. You know there like a pack of hungry mice in the morning" Zane joked. I laughed. Then I went back to sit down and I glanced at Zane one last time. He then returned the favour and smiled back at me.
Things are definitely going to get interesting...

What do you guys think? Should I keep this story going? Cause I have a lot of ideas for what happens next. Let me know!
