jacobs pov

i sighed as i looked at the time on my phone.

troye was supposed to be here twenty minutes ago. this is going to be our third date ever, and not to lie i was very excited.

but he's twenty minutes late. what kind of guy misses their boyfriends third date!!??

i sighed and started to sip the pepsi in front of me. i was getting lots of stares, mostly because i'm alone. this is a fancy restaurant where every couple goes. and i mean every couple. it would be strange to see a person sitting by their self, especially if that person is me.

and the thing is, i just don't think he does love me.

i know we already went over this but now he's missing our date? i'm not gonna go all crazy on him when-if he gets here, i'll just act chill and happy to see him.

the waitress came up to the table, "ready to order yet?" her high pitched voice squeaked. "uh not yet, i'm still waiting for my boyfriend." i stammered slightly. she smiled and nodded as she walked away.

ive been starting to think that maybe troye has a job.. maybe? he's been leaving quite often saying he has things to do and he doesn't usually get back until like dinner time or later. i know i shouldn't be like making predictions but... is he cheating on me?

i know he'd never do it, but for like a month now all he's been doing is leaving to do stuff or being with nicole. i usually saw him for a good five percent throughout the week.

damn.

i took out my phone and began to text troye.

me: hey, babe
me: where are you? our reservation was set for twenty minutes ago.

i sighed again and locked my phone and placed it on the table.

i tapped on the table quietly as i waited desperately for a reply.

i saw my screen light up, i smiled and quickly picked up my phone. but my smile dropped, as that the text wasn't from troye.

emily: this is urgent jacob pick up asap.

me: emily are you okay? what's wrong?

emily: can i stay at your place for a while....? please?

me: yes of course you can. what's going on??

emily: mom kicked me out.

me: WHAT!!?? why?

emily: i came out that i was gay.

me: oh my god emily i'm so sorry. of course you can come over. how long will you be staying?

emily: i'm not sure.....

me: it's fine you can stay as long as you want and need. i'll always be here for you.

emily: thank you big brother. i love you.

me: you're welcome baby sister. i love you too.

i looked up from my phone and spotted troye walk into the restaurant quickly, and he talked to the person behind the desk.

he smiled weakly as he approached the table.

"hey babe." he smiled as he sat down in front of me.

"hi." i muttered.

"what's wrong?" he asked.

i sat quiet for a minute, staring at the ceiling. bright chandelier.

"you're what's wrong." i spat out.

i heard him gasp quietly to himself. "excuse me..?" he asked softly.

"you. you are why i'm in a bad mood." i repeated.

"why? what did i do? i just got here!" he protested.

"exactly. you just got here."

"jacob i'm sorry i was-"

"busy?"

"yeah.....busy......"

"doing what?" i asked.

"that's none of your business." he defended himself.

"oh really? i think it kinda is. you are my boyfriend, at least i think you are, and i know you don't have a job, and you aren't always with nicole. are you cheating on me?"

"cheating?! you think i'm cheating?!"

"i know you wouldn't, but i just need a simple answer. yes or no."

"no." he answer sharply.

i rolled my eyes.

"what you don't believe me?" he asked.

"no actually i don't." i took a sip of my drink.

"and why is that?" he asked, folding his hands."

"because troye, everyday you either come home super happy, angry, or wobbily. i have no idea what's going on,. please just talk to me." i lowered my voice a little.

"jacob," he reached out and grabbed my hand and intertwined our fingers together.

"i can assure you nothing is going on." troye smiled softly as he rubbed my hand with his thumb.

i cursed under my breath.

i took back my hands and stood up.

"jacob where are you-"

"i need space." i snapped.
