Dirty Secrets (Book 1)

Ch.3 Alone

Grian leaned up against his locker, he was waiting for the others to get here, they told him to go ahead without him. He wasn't complaining about it either, he needed a break from those guys. Grian can only take so much flirting from Taurtis, Dom, and Sam, as well as glares from J. Though he didn't really blame him if he had three boyfriends who were all fawning over some guy they just met, Grian might be a little jealous too. A few gasps caught his attention and he began to wonder if he was speaking out loud.

"They're coming, look," One of the girls in a huddle hit one of her friends on the shoulder pointing to the entrance.

Grain was slightly confused, everyone was staring at the doors as if they were expecting someone important. He briefly wondered if the principal was coming through the school or something. However, when the doors opened, it wasn't who he was expecting. It was his roommates, Taurtis and Sam were holding hands and next to them J was reading his book while Dom had his arm around him. Sam appeared to be laughing at something Taurtis had said. J also had a small smile on his face.

"They make such cute couples," a student somewhere behind Grian said.

They all walked up to him, Sam leaned against the lockers next to him. Though they were all still clearly invested in the conversation they were having.

"All I'm saying is that it would be interesting to try," Taurtis held his hands up.

"I think you need to stay off the internet, it gives you too many ideas," Dom frowned, clearly displeased with whatever Taurtis was talking about.

"Yeah, fun ideas," Sam kissed Taurtis on the cheek as he laughed.

"Well if you're so into it, you can try it out, just leave me out of it," Dom said.

"Aww, come on Dom, even J would do it, wouldn't you J?" Sam tilted his head at him.

J shrugged, "I guess."

"See, it's not that big of a deal," Taurtis placed his hand on Dom's shoulder.

Dom crossed his arms, "My decision hasn't changed."

Sam rolled his eyes, "Fine, you don't have to."

"But it would be way better if you did. Personally, I think you'd look sexy in it," Taurtis smirked.

Dom blushed, "I don't care."

Taurtis turned his attention to Grian, "Sorry, we were having an important discussion."

Grian gave a small smile, "It's fine."

"Shoot, I gotta go guys. See yeah later," Sam waved to us before running off down the hall.

"Shouldn't you follow him?" Dom asked Taurtis.

Taurtis shook his head, "Nah, he'll be fine."

J shut his book, "I'm going the same way, I'll just catch up with him."

"You sure, he's pretty fast," Dom pointed out.

J rolled his eyes, "Come on, I've had lots of practice, I've been chasing after him for years."

"Yet you still haven't caught him," Taurtis teased.

"Watch it," J warned, and with that, he was dashing off after Sam.

Grian shifted a little, he could feel Taurtis and Dom staring at him. He glanced up to meet their gaze. He tilted his head, "Yes?"

"Nothing," Dom said, "Just looking."

"Is there something on your mind?" Taurtis asked.

"Are you aware that this whole school thinks you're all couples?" Grian blurted out.
