CHAPTER 15: I'm Gay

Josh's POV ~

"I'm gay" Tyler blurted out then once he realized what he just said his eyes looked like they were going to pop out of his head. "Don't hate me" he whispered as he clenched his eyes shut.

"Hate you?...... Why would I hate you?" I asked a little bit confused. "I-i don't know.... I... I had this dream the other night that I told you and you got mad and started calling me names and you said you didn't want to be my friend anymore but I really want you to still be my friend.... Maybe I even want you to be more then a friend. I don't know I just really don't want you to hate me now." he started crying.

It took every ounce of confidence I had to do what I did next.

I slowly stood up, taking a deep breath as I did so and I kneeled down in front of Tyler who's head was down as tears flowed from his eyes. I softly grabbed his chin making him look at me and wiped the tears from his cheeks with my thumb. I then took another deep breath before I slowly leaned in and pressed my lips to Tyler's. He seemed shocked for a moment but after a few seconds he started to kiss back.

On the outside I was calm and collected but on the inside I was screaming 'HOLY SHIT I'M KISSING TYLER! HOLY SHIT HE'S KISSING BACK! HOLY SHIT!'

I slowly pulled away and Tyler looked at me with wide eyes as he tried to catch his breath and tried to process what just happened.

"I could never hate you Tyler. Don't ever think that. Okay? " I said while grabbing his hands and running my thumbs over his knuckles. A smile made its way to his face. "Okay" he said quietly as he looked into my eyes.

Things fell silent for a moment before Tyler softly mumbled "um can uh can we do that again?" he asked while a noticeable blush crept it's way to his face. I smiled widely before answering "of course" I then leaned in again closing the gap between us.

Our lips moved in sync. Tyler's arms rested around my neck as my hands rested on his sides.

I felt happy and content in the moment being. Tyler's lips are so soft and perfect as is everything else about him.
I was lost in my own little world that seemed to only contain me and Tyler when the front door opened and my moms voice rang through the house.

"JOOOSSSHH I'M HOME! COME HELP ME WITH THESE GROCERIES!" Tyler quickly jumped back at the sound of my moms voice and his face turned red yet again. He's so cute.

"I'M COMING MOM!" I called up the stairs to her. I stood up and put my hand out for Tyler to take which he did then I made my way upstairs with Tyler trailing behind me.

I let his hand go before we came into view of my mom she didn't know I was gay yet though I'm sure she'll be fine with it I'll tell her another time. Me and Tyler then proceeded to help my mom unpack the groceries. We also did the dishes for my mom cause she said she had a long day at work.

After we finished helping my mom me and Tyler went back down to my room. Tyler sat down on the bed and I sat next to him after I shut my door.

We sat in silence (don't) for a while just looking at each other until I spoke.

"So.... Um ... What are we?" I asked cringing to myself for being so awkward. "Ummmm I don't know"he said while rubbing the back of his neck.

"Um would.....would you want to be my boyfriend?" I asked quietly and also awkwardly "yes" Tyler said rather quickly almost like he was hoping I'd ask. A huge smile spread across my face.

"Cool" I said as I laid back on my bed "I have a boyfriend" I said while crossing my arms under the back of my head.

Tyler then did the unexpected and crawled on top of me, straddling me. He just looked down at me before a devilish grin spread across his face.

"What?" I asked sitting up a bit propping myself up on my elbows. Tyler then proceeded to tickle me.

"TYLER NO!.......STOP PLEASE!" I yelled while I laughed and wiggled around. "Not unless you give me a kiss" he said with a smirk.

I leaned in slowly sitting up fully. I let my breath fan over his lips his eyes fluttering shut and I used this to my advantage as a grin played on my face. I pushed him off me onto the floor and ran out of my room to hide.

"HEY! NO FAIR!" he screamed as I ran up the stairs laughing my head off. I ran into my mom as she came out of the living room to see what all the commotion was about.

"Oh sorry mom" I said trying to catch my breath "its okay... What's going on? I heard a loud noise and Tyler screaming"

"Um Tyler fell off the bed......" I said as I replayed the image of his face as he fell backwards and I tried not to laugh. "Is he okay" my mom asked while going back into the living room "yeah he's fine" I said while heading back downstairs to my room.

I walked into my room to see Tyler sitting on my floor with his legs out in front of him. His arms were crossed over his chest as he pouted. "Awww I'm sorry" I said as I knelt down in front of him.

He just turned his head away from me "Tyler don't be like that" I said as I got closer to him. He remained silent "Tyler?"

He made a 'hmph' noise as he turned his whole body away from me. I sat behind him and pulled him onto my lap wrapping my arms around his small frame. "I'm sorry.... How about that kiss?"

He slowly turned around to look at me and I wiggled my eyebrows "yes please" he said turning completely around and wrapping his arms around my neck.

Once again our lips were in sync. My mind couldn't help but replay Tyler falling backwards yet again and I laughed into the kiss.

Tyler pulled away and looked at me very confused as I kept smiling. "What?" he asked furrowing his eyebrows

"You should have seen your face when you realized you were getting pushed backwards" I said bursting out into a fit of laughter

"Ha ha so funny" he said sarcastically while getting up off me and sitting on the bed

My mom then came into my room and gave me a confused look "Josh why are you sitting on the floor?"

I was quick to come up with a funny response "I felt bad that Tyler fell off the bed so I decided fall off the bed too" Tyler could be heard chuckling quietly as my mom just continued giving me a confused look

"Okay then... Well I'm going to bed I suggest you two do the same"she pointed at us both before leaving the room and closing the door behind her.

I looked at Tyler he was still smiling. I got up and stood in front of him grabbing his hands and pulling him to his feet.

"Why don't we get ready for bed?" I asked still holding one if his hands. He nodded and walked over to his bag and grabbed some pjs and his toothbrush.

He went upstairs to the bathroom to get changed as I got changed in my room. I threw on some grey sweat pants but I didn't bother putting a shirt on its too warm in my room.

I walked upstairs to go brush my teeth as I got to the top of the stairs Tyler came out of the bathroom and his eyes widened when he saw me.

I looked down at myself then at him a smirk playing on my lips as I wiggled my eyebrows at him. He looked at the ground and blushed. "I'm just playing around" I stated while walking past him to brush my teeth.
