Love story my ass [Vikklan]

Cute Australian boy

I skipped school the next week. Spent it in the park with my headphones in and Lachlan in my mind. I'm not going to be able to deal with this. I can't pretend I hate the boy I'm in love with and I can't risk any of it getting out so I've just hid. Hid from school, hid from my problems. I've hid from everyone expect Lachlan. He's been texting me, asking how I am. Every time I lie and say I feel sick. Better than him knowing the truth. Robs also been texting, he knows something is up and it's only a matter of time before he makes it his duty to find out. I just hope I can work out what to say before he finds me.

I've been working on my story all week. I will tell Rob I just need a break. That Mitch and Jerome are stressing me out. It's not really a lie. Rob has to believe it. I'm scared for him to know, I'm scared for anyone to know. What if it changes they way he sees me. What would people think if they know I'm in love with Lachlan. What would Lachlan think?

"Vikk." I look up and see Rob and Lachlan standing their, "We came to find you."

"Well I'm here." I pull my earphones out and stare up at the clear blue sky before back at Lachlan's messy hair and cute smile.

"What's up?" Rob asked instantly knowing something was bothering me.

"I'm just stressed over the Mitch and Jerome thing that's all." I mutter praying he don't continue.

"Is that all?" Lachlan asked and I nod, Rob raised his eyebrows and cocked his head over at Lachlan as if to say is it about him, I nod again knowing Lachlan would think I'm nodding about Mitch and Jerome being my only problem.

"You know Vikk." Rob started, "You can talk to me about anything."

"Yeah I know." I smile knowing that Rob is going to wait until Lachlan leaves to speak, I can't hide anything from Rob he always finds it.

"Look I really need to go." Lachlan said, "I need to go out with my mum at 5 so I expect to talk to you tomorrow."

"Okay Lachlan bye." When he's left Rob comes and sits next to me, "What about Lachlan then."

"It's nothing important I just can't pretend I hate him." How can I say this to Rob.

"You love him don't you." He just comes out and says, "I can see it by the way you look at him, your in love that's why you can't pretend to hate him anymore. That's why you tried to act like you really did hate him because your really in love with him. You just didn't want to admit it."

"Yes." I chock crying into Rob's jumper, "I don't want him to know. It will spoil our friendship and I need at least that with him. I need something."

"Why haven't you been coming to school them Vikk?" He asked, "I'm sure the whole Mitch and Jerome thing is stressful but their has to be another reason."

I won't pretend anymore and if I don't pretend then it would get out."

"Vikk you shouldn't be ashamed." Rob said compassionately, "You are you and just because you happen to like dudes and one of them dudes happen to be Lachlan it's nothing bad. I will personally fight anyone who thinks any differently of you and we all know Lachlan would as well. So would Preston. We care about you Vikk. Your not alone."

"Then why do I feel so alone?" I sob.

"Because some dickheads made you feel like that." Rob smiles and me, "Lift your head up and tell the world who you are and your not ashamed. Anyone who has a problem is below you. Don't let anyone dull your sparkle."

"I thought I was the gay one." I laughed, "Don't let anyone dull your sparkle that's the most camo thing I ever heard."

"So what if it is." Rob must have been pleased he made me laugh, "It's true."

"I guess." I admit.

"Now come on and face the world."

This is why Rob is my best friend. He always knows what's wrong and someone manages to help me fix it but he still hasn't fixed all the problem. I still don't know what I'm going to do about Lachlan.

What can I do about the cute Australian boy that stole my heart without even knowing it?
