The last bell for the day rang but that didn't mean I was free to go home. I had football practice, Vivian wouldn't let go of me and today was Pizza Thursday. Pizza Thursday was when the whole gang got together at pizza hut for a pizza party. Having not been with the gang for three months now, I almost forgot if Vivian hadn't reminded me.

     Since I was benched and Mark was up on the field, I used that time to find Vivian on the blenchers talking with Prim and the others. She seemed to notice my stare and she looked right at me, making me gesture for her to come and join me.

Vivian gave a lame salute to her friends then came to sit beside me on the bench where a cooler filled with water sat by my feet. We sat in silence, watching the practice before she spoke, "So, you are into bondage play now."

"It does sound nice but I wouldn't say I'm into it though."

She looked at me with an arched brow. "Then why were you-"

"I have a big secret and I do not want anyone to know about it until I want them to. Can you keep it?" I met her gaze and her expression relaxed.

"Wow, you are serious about this person. Let me guess, it's Mark."

"How did you know?"

She gave me a smug smile. "How would I not? Mark had always held your utmost importance and everyone else was 'yeah, they important at some point'."

I chuckled, looking back at the field and watching Mark run about on it. "I didn't know you knew me like that."

She scoffed. "Don't feel special. I know everyone I sleep with."

Ah yeah. Vivian used to be my friend with benefit. It was way before I had feeling for Mark and she was really good. Good times. Good times.

"Yeah, whatever. So yes, it is about Mark. The thing is, I like him but he had issues and is going through this 'I hate myself' period. My question is, how do I make him love himself more so he'll know how to love me back."

Vivian blinked. "Wow, you are serious."

"Yes I am. Now tell me how because my patience is thinning and I cannot calmly wait around when I know he's just a few steps away from me."

Vivian blinked again then cocked her head at me. "Hold up, I just realized something. You just said you liked Mark. When you said 'like' did you mean like like or I'm just the one getting it wrong."

I turned completely to her on the bench and cupped her face in my hands. "Vivian, I love Mark. It is way passed 'like like'."

The girl's jaw dropped and I let go of her so she could react to the news properly, like she always did; hyperventilating. She took in sharp breaths and I waited for her to calm down before she shocked me by grabbing my shoulders. "Ian, what the fuck happened in three months? And with Mark? That homophobe?"

"Actually, Mark's gay."

She froze. "What? I'm sorry, I just heard Mark and gay in the same sentence and there wasn't hate in the middle. What the fuck?"

Taking her hand off my shoulder, I turned back to the field to see Mark looking my way. Raising my hands, I started to wave but he quickly looked away and the hurt hit me like a fucking arrow. What was that?

"Viv, you aren't to say a word about this to anyone. Not even Prim." I told the girl beside me, suddenly feeling cold.

"Like I would tell Prim shit. Her big mouth is not of this world."

Coach shouted, making Keith and one of the other players turned to me. "Ian, you come in. Mark, Keith and Zac, go take a seat."

"I guess that is my cue." I turned to Vivian. "I'll talk to you over pizza. Give me a good reply by then or I'll kill you."
