Tanner in The Center Boyxboy

WEEKEND SWITCH.

"Thanks a lot!" Tan yells at Lin as she's talking to Erica and Ronnie in Sven's backyard

"That's not how I pictured you saying that" she turns to him

"What happened?" Erica asks

"Lin and I made a deal that if I talk to Sven and make him feel better she'd talk to Cyrus"

"What's the problem? We just saw her talking to him"

"She even got his number" Ronnie adds

"Yeah, I did bitch!" They all cheer her on and start to high five

"Good for you!" Tan yells getting the attention back to him "but Sven just kissed me upstairs!"

"What?!" They all ask shocked

"We were talking in his bed and there was a moment and he kissed me" Tan explains

"You were in his bed?!"

"Tanner Milton I said to make him feel better"

"Those weren't very clear instructions!" Tan panics "now he kissed me and I'm gonna make it weird"

"You don't have to," Ronnie says

"It's Tan he's gonna make it weird" Erica chuckles

"Thanks so much, Erica! None of you are helping! What do I do?"

"Avoid him?" Lin guesses

"Yeah that's smart you should avoid him" Ronnie agrees

"No fuck that!" Erica disagrees "he kissed you fool so if anyone should act weird it's him. Now how was the kiss?"

"Amazing! I mean it was only like a second but it felt amazing"

"Then I say you do it again and again," Lin says

"And again" then Erica

"And a-"

"Stop it!" He cuts Ronnie off "you guys this isn't good I'm not ready for this"

"Why not Tan? You're obsessed with Sven" Erica tries to calm him down

"I don't know if obsessed is the right word" Tan denies

"Yes, it's the right word! You're panicking because something you've always wanted is finally happening, why is that a problem?"

"Because..." because he's falling for Harris Wheeler, but he can't tell them that.

The party ends and Tan lays in bed the next day thinking about his kiss with Sven, a kiss he's wanted for so long but now feels guilty because it's like he's cheating on Harris. Is he even with Harris? They slept together on Wednesday but haven't spoken since, he's been so busy with school and helping Sven with the party he completely forgot about Harris.

Picking up his phone Tan dials Harris's number calling him. "Good morning" Tan greets first when he hears the phone is picked up

"Good Morning" Harris replies walking in his house after his Saturday morning run "how are you?" He asks putting his keys down

"I'm good just miss you, how about you?"

"I'm good and I miss you too. I'm glad you called I wanted to talk to you about something"

Tan sits up getting interested "I'm listening"

Walking to his kitchen for some water Harris starts "I got a new client yesterday for a case I can't discuss with you, but my client is a teacher at Knoxville high school"

"My school?"

"Yes"

"Wait who is it?" Tan asks shocked
