In the dead of the winter, Josh proposed to Freya.

Simon locked himself in his room and refused to come out for two days straight. He and Josh stopped fooling around, and almost stopped talking altogether, after Simon and Madden began to see each other more and more frequently.

The lads were all off celebrating the proposal, and while they were, Simon invited Madden over. He never gave Josh a reason as to why he didn't want to have sex anymore, and Josh didn't seem to mind. He had a beautiful girlfriend; Simon doubted he was suffering.

Madden had never been around the house before, due to the fact that Simon kept their relationship a secret, but he certainly seemed impressed. Simon took him on a tour of the house before ending up in his bedroom, turning down the lights to lay in bed and pop in a film for them to watch together.

"So, your buddy just got engaged?" Madden inquired, to which Simon nodded stiffly. "You don't seem excited. How come you didn't want to go to the party?"

Simon bit his lip before numbly responding, "Because Josh and I used to fuck around, that's why. That girl he's marrying...he cheated on her for about seven months."

Madden let it drop, and rubbed Simon's thigh in calming, circular motions. Before anything more could be said, Simon was on his cock and riding him until the sun went down.

Poor Vikk was the one to find the two naked together the next morning.

Simon let Madden use his shower after some of the humiliation died down. While his man candy was washing up, he stumbled downstairs to talk to Vikk. He didn't expect to see Josh and JJ in the kitchen with him, as well.

"Seems as though you've got a man?" Josh noted, a scowl settling on his lips. He seemed bitter, which made Simon upset. "I didn't think you were quite over me."

"Knock it off, Josh," Vikk snapped, ever the peacemaker. "Simon, why didn't you tell us you were seeing someone?"

Stiff as ever, Simon avoided looking anywhere near Josh. "His name is Madden, and he's my boyfriend. He makes me feel good. ...I was lonely and he was there."

Josh stood up, slamming his hands down hard on their wooden table. "Are you fucking kidding, Simon? He's the reason you stopped talking to me? After all I did for you?"

JJ gripped Josh's arm tight, yanking him back. It occurred to Simon that, at some point, someone must have clued him in to the full story (or what they knew of it, at least).

"Lay off, Josh," hissed JJ. "You and Freya are engaged. Why should it matter who Simon is seeing?"

"He could've at least had the decency to tell us!" Josh exclaimed, looking over to lock eyes with Simon, who was growing queasy and uncomfortable. "Does he fuck you the way I did? Does he fucking tie you down and cum inside you? Does he, Simon?"

With watery eyes, Simon mustered up all his strength to push Josh over, onto the ground and sending him crashing down. Vikk and JJ tried to grab at Simon, but he escaped up the stairs before they could. He slammed the door to his bedroom, seeing Madden sitting on his bed with drenched hair, a towel wrapped around his shoulders and dressed only in his boxers.

Madden spoke before Simon could ever bother trying to. "I heard everything. It''s okay."

Simon walked over and collapsed in Madden's arms, finally letting out the tears that had been building up since he heard about the engagement. Madden held him close, rubbing his back as he let Simon cry and cry; all of it coming out at once.

He wasn't like Josh. Not one bit.
