"Let's just ignore him." I hissed.

"Why? Isn't he your best friend?" He asked.

"We're no longer friends."

"What happened?"

"Long story!" I sighed.

"What is it? I'm all ears?"

"Please Noah, I don't want to talk about it."

"As you like." He coldly replied. We both went our seperate ways without even saying goodbye. Noah seems to be upset because I didn't talk to him about Chris, the truth is I do want to talk about it but I'm not really sure if he is okay with me being gay, I mean I don't know whether he is accepting or not and I don't want to lose him already we seem to get along so well.

This is confusing.

Time went by real slow. The secondes turned to minutes and the minutes turned to hours and the hours turned to days and still I can't seem to stop thinking about how upset Noah was when I have finally been released from the chain of thoughts thanks to the sweet sound of the rining bells.

It was weird, everyone was asking about Vicky the lunch lady, she wasn't there. Well good for us, she is the meanest old lady on earth, she is always humiliating us. I walked towards the table where Eveline was sitting.

"You seem kind of disappointed is it because Vicky icky is leaving school? She asked dramatically as she handed over my headphones. " I stole these yesterday so I can hear some music instead of your moans." She giggled. I giggled too.

"Is she really leaving school?" I asked, dramatically too.

"We are good at faking it." She answered as we both laughed so hard.

"What's so funny?"

I turned around to see Noah joining us on table. I blushed.

"Vicky the lunch lady." Shouted Eveline making us laugh. He sat between me and Eve which was kind of weird because he is not supposed to move her away.

"I'm sorry I wanted to sit next to him." He appologized giggling.

"He's all yours." She giggled back. I shot her a look but she didn't stop giggling. "I will leave you two hotties alone, you sure have a lot of things to talk about." She winked.

"She's just joking." I finally said when she left.

"Oh no she's funny plus who knows? I might be interested." His lips slowly turned up into a smile.

My jaw dropped, I was surprised as I choked on the soda I had been sipping then started laughing.

"By the way Liam, I want you to meet my friend Taylor this afternoon."

"Eugh..." I opened my mouth to answer when a million thoughts flashed through my head. "Yes sure, why not? I replied.

"Really? His eyes widened is surprise.

"Yes."

"See you at my place around four, okay?"

"Okay." I replied when he squeezed my shoulders and left.

I went home after a short day at school, I was having mixed feelings, I was happy because he offered breakfast but at the same time I was disappointed because he wanted to introduce me to his friend, is it really a friend or is it something else?

Argh, I should stop having useless thoughts , after all I've only known him for a couple of days.

I walked home and headed to the kitchen directly to grab some ice cream.

"MOM!" I yelled. "Where's the ice cream".

"We're eating it, we're in the living room". She yelled back.

"What the hell are you doing here?" I asked when I saw Eveline sitting right next to my mom and my little brother.

"Eating ice cream, isn't it obvious?" She raised a brow.

"Oh my god." I muttered. "I'm going to shower because I have no capacity left to support any kind of irritation".

I headed straight to the bathroom and stripped my clothes off and stepped into the shower. When I was done, I wrapped the towel around my waist heading into my room to get dressed. To my surprise, Eveline was there, sprawled across the bed.

"I think you should wear this if you want to impress him."

I sighed heavily.

"Are you stalking me?" I shot her a look.

"No I'm not, I'm just giving you some advice because I know how stupid you get around people you like."

"Get out I need to be ready or I'll be late."

"I'll drive you if you want , I'm going home anyways."

"Great." I replied as I slammed the door behind her.

She got out and went down stairs while I wore some tight jeans, a white tee-shirt and my half-tall black leather boots. I followed Eve downstairs when my mother asked me where I was going.

"He's going on a -"

"I'm going to a friend's house." I interrupted her saying as I shot her a look.

"As if I'm believing you." She looked at me upside down. I gulped.

We got in Eveline's car while I guided , she dropped me in front of Noah's house where he was waiting for me.

"Dude you're punctual!" He exclaimed.

"I am!"

He opened his big beautiful door, a blue one with black narrow keys glued to it. I followed him as we passed by a 30-feet inches pool. It was so beautiful, his house was so big and calm , so calm that in fact 6 cats were resting and tanning by the pool.

"I will introduce you to my family and then we'll stay in the garden until Taylor calls." He said.

"Sounds good." I was so excited to meet his family and to see what they have in store for me.

We walked in the living room where his family was gathered. I greeted them while he introduced me, his two sisters were funny but his parents was neutral they didn't show any emotion. Weird. Right , after that we went down and sat by the pool where we joked and laughed about every single word we've said.

Noah's phone rang, he quickly answered and informed that his friend will show up in a few minutes.

Twenty minutes after the phone call Taylor showed up in front of Noah's house, we got out to invite him in.

"Hi I'm Taylor." He said.

"Hi I'm Liam." I said while I extended my hand.

Noah was so happy : "Let's grab some coffee?" He suggested.

"Sure." Said Taylor.

"Yay!" I faked being excited. I had to fake it because I don't have enough money with me and ever since my father started having problems with his mother who coldly threatened to fire her own son, I'm no longer sure of how things will turn into.
