Third person's POV ( By far the cringiest title I could think off )

They reached the back of the park where the parking lot was. Sherwin and jonathan were walking under the shades of the trees.

Jonathan spotted his bike. "There it is!" He said, pointing. Sherwin stop sipping his drink. Yes, his still not finished with it. He tried to find which bike was his. Apparently that side were filled with even more bicycles.

"Um...w-which one?" Sherwin asked. "The bright blue one near the red pickup truck" jonathan said. "Oh" sherwin murmured as he returned his lips on his straw.

Jonathan and sherwin approached the said bike. "Hey!" They both perked up as a shout came from beside them.

Dylan came in their view waving at them as he ran towards them. He sighed and put his hands to his waist. "Where you guys been?" He asked.

"We bought something to drink" jonathan replied. Sherwin lifted his drink a little bit to show that they did. He then returned to sipping his drink. "Were you waiting for us?" Sherwin asked after a sip.

"Well, kinda, i was trying to look for both of you first but when i couldn't find you guys. I just went to fix my flat tire" he said as he presented his hands with dirt and grease.

"But you couldn't fixed it" jonathan said. "But i couldn't fixed it" dylan admitted as he looked away. "Atleast you tried" sherwin commented and looked up at him smiling.

Dylan turn to sherwin, blushing at bit. He smiled. "Haha...thanks" he replied, scratching his head with one hand using the very tips of his nail.

Jonathan noticed dylan's action and placed a hand at sherwin's shoulder making the smaller boy flinched.

He neared closer to sherwin from behind looking at dylan. Sherwin on the other hand tighten his grip on his drink with pink blush on his cheeks.

"We're gonna head out, later then dylan" he said smiling as he turned sherwin around and slowly but gently dragged sherwin with him.

Dylan fast walk to catch up with them to sherwin's side. "Well, I should come with you guys. I did invite him with us right, sherwin?" He said also smiling as he place a hand on sherwin's other shoulder.

The two taller boys faced each other with a now rather menacing grin. While sherwin was uncomfortably sipping on his drink. He choke up a bit and started to cough when jonathan's hand move a little higher, feeling his fingers touching the base of his neck.

"Sherwin! Are you ok?" Jonathan asked turning sherwin to face him. "Hey, you alright?" Dylan asked from his side. "H-hey, j-just umm.." sherwin paused when he met jonathan's worried look.

"I'm fine..." sherwin mumbled as he looked away from jonathan covering his face with his drink.

"A-are you sure?" Jonathan asked again. Dylan circled a little more to have a look at him. Sherwin nodded "uh huh" he said. That little revelation to himself made it hard for sherwin to look at jonathan at the moment.

Specially, not in this situation. Their bodies were only arms away and jonathan was looking at him directly. Not an ideal thing to be happening he thought but his heart tells him otherwise. *Da dub Da dub Da dub*

"L-let's just umm g-go now" sherwin hesistantly said as he walked pass jonathan and dylan while still covering his face with his milkshake.

Jonathan and dylan stared at the back of sherwin for a while before they eyed each other.

It wasn't really like their giving off deadly vides towards the other but it was still rather a heavy atmosphere around them.

They heard someone gagged on something. They knew it was sherwin coughing again.
