Cheating? Gay?-Chapter 7

Mike's p.o.v

I sat with Tony in class he looked so sad more and more lately. He looked down at his notebook, scribbling little things in. "Turtle." He looked up slightly. "What's up, where's Hime Time?"

"I don't know...haven't seen him for weeks." He muttered the last part. I know he meant Jaime hadn't been himself. The rotten thing was it was only really with Tone. If he doesn't wanna date Tone anymore he should tell him, stop stringing him along. I sighed and continued writing some notes. "Mike..." I looked up. "Should I just...he won't talk about it, he's avoiding me. Should I just break it off?" I had no idea what to tell him, I mean Jaime had never been like this to Tony before. I looked down.

"Do what feels right." I muttered. He nodded, taking it in. We sat doing work for about twenty minutes in silence. "Do you wanna come over tonight?" He looked up and nodded. He'd been coming over a lot more lately too. Everyday now. We'd been best friends for ages but you know, Jaime's his boyfriend.

"I'm gonna do it." I looked at him from my spot next to him on my bed. "I can't do it anymore." I could see the pain in his eyes saying that. He started sniffling and I paused the game. "The funniest thing is, I'm not even sad about him anymore. I've seen it coming."

"It's only been a few weeks."

"But, he's not coming back Mike. I've known him for a long time. He's not coming back to me Mike. It's so obvious. He's only like this around me." I hugged him, playing with his long black hair.

"He's an idiot." Tony sat up after a bit. He just sat staring. Then his lips were on mine. I almost kissed back but he pulled away. Oh my god, I just got kissed by a guy. Not just a guy, my best friend. "Tony..." It was probably just because he was upset over Jaime. He sat away from me.

"Sorry." He muttered. He stood up, grabbed his things and left. Damn. I'd almost kissed back. It didn't feel repulsive. A little wrong but...it was because he was my best friend, not because he's a guy and gay. Was I gay? I mean I'd only ever had one girlfriend, for about a year. We never did anything though, past kissing. We might have only made out once. What if I'd never really had a deep thing with a girl, because I don't like them. No it was because I hadn't found the right person. Person. I didn't say girl I said person. Damn it Tone, what have you done? No, it wasn't Tony's fault. I took a deep breath. You're seriously over thinking things Mike. I smiled and went to play some more video games.

He pushed his lips into mine. He tasted so sweet. I pulled him closer, stroking his shoulder. He sucked on my lip slightly and I stuck my tongue in his mouth. He made a little desperate sound. His lips were so soft and I never wanted us to seperate. I pulled him closer and we lay down.

I sat up quickly, sweating slightly. Fuck.

Tony and I had kind of been ignoring the fact we kissed for the last week. Everyday I thought more and more about if I could possibly be gay and with everyday it seemed more and more believable. "Mike." He said as we walked into school together.

"Yeah?"

"I broke up with Jaime last night." I looked over at him. I sighed and tucked my fingers in my pockets. For some reason I was freaking happy. Stop it Mike.

"So um how are you?" He just nodded.

"Okay, it didn't feel like we were a thing anymore anyway." Silence fell over us. We went and sat at our usual spot, both of us getting our phones out.

"Look, Tone-"

"Don't Mike...its-"

"I don't know-"
