It was day two of the trip to New York.
"Hey guys, sorry I wasn't vlogging the last 2 days, me and Kalel were busy with all the venues she wanted to go to, but I'm gonna say this, I miss you guys! And I miss Ian with his funny jokes," Anthony grinned.
"Okay I'm ready!" said Kalel as she came out and into the lobby, "Are you vlogging?"
"Yep, but I haven't told them where we're going yet, do you want to tell them?"
Anthony and Kalel began walking out of the hotel.
"We're going shopping! In the snow!"
"Yay SNOW!" Anthony ran out into the snow.
A few minutes later he was hit on the head with a snowball, he turned round so his phone was on both him and Kalel.
"Was that you?" he chuckled.
"Maybe" Kalel began running down the snowy road.
"I'm gonna get you!" Anthony began chasing Kalel.
Anthony managed to catch up and he wrapped his arm around her and spun her round while she was squealing quietly. They stopped and their faces got nearer to each other, Kalel looked into the phone lense the same way she looked at Ian when she kissed Logan at the party, she quickly looked back at Anthony.
"Love you" she whispered.
"Love you too" Anthony leaned in and kissed her.
Ian closed his laptop, he couldn't watch anymore, he felt sick.
"I miss you too Anthony but it looks like you don't miss me anymore" he said, holding back tears.
His phone was ringing.
Ian picked up the phone, "Hello?"
"Hello, it's Melanie. Are you okay, you sound like your crying"
"No, I'm fine, don't worry" Ian tried sounding more cheery
"Do you miss Anthony?"
"A little bit"
"Aww, you're too sweet" Melanie giggled a bit.
"Thanks, but you're better, trust me"
"Thanks, anyway, I'm throwing a christmas party, the day after Anthony gets back"
"Sounds like fun"
"So do you want to come?" Melanie asked.
"Mel, I wouldn't miss anything of yours for the world"
"And you say I'm better," something dropped in the background, "shit, Ia my dog just knocked something over, I gotta go, love you"
"Love you too - you do know that right?"
"Know what?"
"That I love you"
"Of course, you tell me everyday!"
Ian smiled, "Good, okay, bye"
"Bye"
Ian hung up, he did love Melanie, just not the same way he loves Anthony, he had to tell her soon, not now, but soon.
*****************
Anthony did have feelings for Kalel, but not the same ones he had towards Ian. How would he tell her? Should he even tell her?
