Starbucks Secrets.

One Love (2/3)

-Matt's POV-

"You have to tell him, Matt." Mike said bringing over two cups of coffee, placing on in front of me on the table we had decided to sit at in starbucks.

"Mike, I can't tell him, he would kick me out of the band and never talk to me again." I sighed, starting to fiddle with the lid of my coffee.

"Matt, when have you ever known Josh to be hateful towards anyone?" Mike always knew what to say. This was the reason he is known as the walking hallmark card, even the fans have picked up the nickname for him.

"Yeah Mike and he also calls himself the 'gayest straight guy ever'. If I told him, he won't return my feelings." I sighed. Josh would never fancy me.

I heard a gasp from the table behind me but thought nothing of it.

"Matt, when Josh is with you, he is the happiest he gets, even on stage when you two have a 'moment' that is when he gets that starry eyed look. How do you know the 'gayest straight guy' thing isn't just a cover up for his true feelings?" Mike said, doing air quotations with his fingers when he said 'moment'.

"Yeah, and what if I tell him and makes things awkward between us which in result affects the band. You know how sensitive Josh can get, when he knows someone likes him and he can't return the feelings."

"Yeah, and we also know how much Josh hates secrets. If you have a problem keeping it a secret makes it stronger." Mike said, using something Josh had once said when refering to his past issues.

"Fine, I'll tell Josh I love him, but if he hates me and the band ends up falling apart, It's all your fault." I sighed.

I knew Mike was right, Josh would find out one day and just tell me that I shouldn't have kept it a secret for so long.

The fans have noticed and have always shipped 'Jatt' as they have called us.

"Matt, everyone can see you like Josh in a different way than you see me and Ian. Even the fans see it. You and Josh are the only two who can't see it." Sometimes I'm sure Mike can read minds.

"Yeah, we should get going, we still need to get Josh his coke zero. You know how bad he gets when he has to wait for one." I smiled, thinking about Josh.

"There's that starry eyed look you both get. You really do love him Matt, don't you?" Mike said, getting up from his seat and grabbing his coat from the back of the chair he was sat in.

"Yeah, it's bad."

"You can't help who you fall in love with Matt. Just for the record I kinda ship 'Jatt' to, just not in the 'I want to watch you both fuck each other' way the fans do but more in the 'I want my two best friends to be happy with each other' way."

"Thanks Hallmark, you know if the band does fail, you can always get a job writing cards." I laughed getting up and joining Mike in grabbing my coat, before I gave him a slap on his back.
