40 : Interlude ~ Jonathan

NOTE : Jo and Luke live in New York in this story... But Evan, Craig and Tyler don't know about that ;)

ANOTHER NOTE : I've never been to America in my whole life. So, if there's some mistakes about the places mentioned, please, PLEASE, PLEASE FORGIVE ME :(

"Luke, what the fuck is wrong with you?! You're crazy!" The blue-eyed man screamed with anger. His friend just glared at him, making a low growl.

"Luke, why are you doing this? I didn't do anything wrong!"

"Just shut the fuck up, Jonathan!" The man yelled at the top of his lungs, huffing and puffing furiously. He held up Jonathan's phone, and his friend's eyes widened with wonder.

"Why, Luke? Why? You've never acted like this in my whole life! Is there something wrong?" Jonathan asked, his eyes narrowed at his best friend. "Jo, you were talking to a stranger that you have no idea what he looks like, and barely even know him better," Luke replied, still holding the phone.

"So what? He's just being a---being a friend. Thats all."

"Not just that. You rarely even hang out with me. I'm your best friend and you just neglect me like that? Am I worthless and not fun anymore? Because I'm too busy with work and all?" The man spoke his feelings out, and all Jonathan did was staring at him with curiosity.

"Are you jealous? I can tell that from your expression that you actually have read my text messages between me and Evan . . . "

Luke sighed deeply, and looked down on his friend who was sitting on the couch, with arms folded over his chest.

"I've been keeping my feelings for you for a long time. I'm just too afraid to say it all out. Ever since we were little, we're inseparable; when you go there, I would follow you---and when I go here, you would follow me. We're brothers from another mother, Jonathan. But our friendship has evolved into something 'else'," Luke explained, his heart was racing like crazy when he expressed his true feelings for his best friend. Jonathan was speechless, he never thought his own best friend would love him---no matter how he looks and how delirious his personality is.

"Gee, Luke. I've never thought you would feel this way. No wonder you're always being overprotective whenever I have a relationship . . . " Jonathan felt bad, realizing that his best friend had always been caring towards him.

Luke was the one that helped him to get up after Jo accidentally fell from a slide. Luke was the one who defended him from the bullies back in primary school. Luke was the one who accompanied him to study Maths and Science in the library back in secondary school, and Jo ended having good grades for both Maths and Science. And Luke was the one that helped him to go through the pains and heart breaks during his break-ups. He never thought of having a friend who has always been there for him, no matter how simple or hard life is.

"Here, have your phone back," Luke said, throwing the phone back to its owner. "And sorry for everything."

The blue-eyed man caught the phone in his hands, and looked up at his best friend. Luke walked into the kitchen, probably going to have himself some Cokes or Mountain Dews. Jonathan just looked at his phone and smiled.

You're not a bad friend after all, he thought.

"Are we there yet?" Evan asked amongst the silence. "No," Tyler replied, annoyed.

"Are we there yet?" Evan asked again. "Not yet," Craig smiled, while watching some YouTube videos on his iPhone.

"Are we there yet?" The Canadian man asked again. "Urgh, no," Tyler answered.
