Love On His Sleeves

Spring Fest

Samir in MM
Eric POV

Pulling up to the park for spring fest all I can think about is how this is going to go down exactly.

If I tell Jonathan how I feel, my conscious will be clear because he would know exactly how I feel, and I could move on from it all.

And everything would be good, right?

On the other hand I could get my ass beat by his boyfriend.

Horn BLOWS*****

Looking to my left I see Antwan, and Tee pulling into the parking lot of the park.

I shake my head because that is a problematic duo. I can't believe Antwan is actually fooling with that dude.

Aren't they both supposed to be "tops?"

But that's none of my business.

Who are y'all blowing the horn at? I asked leaning into Antwan's window.

Your ass, why are you looking lost staring into space and shit, why are you even here? Antwan asked smiling.

Tee leaned over, and second what he said chuckling. Yeah man sometimes it's better to actually have sex then to think about it.

Ha.ha... that shit ain't funny I said shoving Tee's face back into the car. I came for the turn up, duh...

Where is Alyssa, and Jonathan? I asked focusing back on Antwan.

Why are you asking me? Isn't that your friend, he replied.

I rolled my eyes, I swear everyone loves giving Alyssa a hard time.

Yeah and Jonathan is yours.. so what's your point?

My point is... I'm not their daddy, nor do I care to keep up with there every whereabouts, Antwan said.

Alright, alright whatever. Y'all have fun, I said hitting the side of his car and walking off.

Facing the park and watching everyone from there school, I start feeling like this is a big mistake and something is about to go down.

While in my thoughts I feel someone tapping on my shoulder, and I turn around fast as fuck.

There I see Alyssa, and Jonathan right behind her smiling eating cotton candy.

Geesh... calm down, your not living right, Alyssa yells.

Rolling my eyes, we all laugh. Shut up that's not funny. It's just a lot going on and I was looking for you. I saw Antwan come with Tee, I wasn't feeling hanging around them too today.

True..., Jonathan says stuffing more cotton candy in his mouth.

What's up Jon, how are you? I asked hoping to spark a conversation and Alyssa stands on the sideline observing what feels like a failed attempt of me trying to connect with him.

I'm good, just trying to survive these last few months before summer, then freshman year, he says.

Smiling, I nod my head, yeah me too. Do you know where you're going yet?
