Please don't be in love with someone else

I'm doing just fine without you.

It's been a week since Noah and Jack talked. Almost school again for this year. grade 10. Since Jack just finished 9th grade with a bunch of his friends they were all prepared for their second year in a bigger school. The bullies were never done with them though. Austin was held back a year so he could continue to lead his group. Curtis and Jamie still in grade 12. This scared Jack just a little but it was okay now that he and his friends were stronger than ever. It was weird being friends with all these people. Lilia, Maddie, Ashley, Millie and Sadie were always getting swarmed in the halls. They were really popular girls and everyone wanted to date them. They were all going into grade 10. Sophia, Wyatt and Finn were also popular in ways too. Sophia threw the best parties and Finn and Wyatt were good looking and funny. They were going into grade 11. Jack, Jeremy, Jaeden, Gaten, and Caleb all were outcasts. It hurt them too be friends with all the popular kids but they made it by.

Speaking of Sophia throwing amazing parties there was one tonight. Everyone in 10th and 11th and some 12th graders were invited. Everyone was excited to go except Jack. He didn't want to see Noah and he knew that Noah would be there. Everyone was going to have a good time though and it would be okay. Sophia and Jack agreed to stick together. Everyone was probably going to separate. Finn and Wyatt would go off with their crown. Gaten Caleb Jeremy and Jaeden would all go off and probably get insanely drunk. Sophia and Jack would enjoy it for all of 10 mins then lock themselves into a room to talk.

All the boys were going to Wyatt's to swim today before the party. Once everyone showed up they all jumped right in the pool. Splashing and fighting. Some screams let out and everyone was laughing and having a good time. Then Wyatt made a suggestion that made everyone intrigued, "The losing team has to jump in the pool naked" everyone obliged and made teams getting on one another's backs. Gaten got on Caleb's back, Finn got on Wyatt's back, Jack got on Jaeden's back and Jeremy sat out to judge. Everyone knew Finn and Wyatt would be unbeatable so Gaten and Caleb faced Jaeden and Jack to figure out who would face the others for the big dare. This round did not have a dare. The boys started pushing an shoving an laughing but almost instantly Gaten and Caleb tipped over from Jack pushing them.

Now it was these guys. These guys that everyone shipped and they all believed there was romantic tension between. Maybe there was. Maybe just these for were blind to their own love and affection. Anyways Jack and Jaeden were so scared they were going to be defeated. Jack and Jaeden grew closer and closer these past few years and as Wyatt and Finn became new best friends so did Jaeden and Jack. And it was good to talk to each other. Jaeden and Jack were so insecure about themselves. They were shy and everyone knew it. That was the funny part to Wyatt and Finn. They were not shy and could care less if everyone here saw their dicks. It was funny to see two embarrassed boys jump, covering themselves from the world.

It was an intense fight. Lots of pushing and shoving and splashing. Finn and Wyatt laughed a lot but the other two were completely serious. They were not losing this. Everyone else cheered and giggled debating on who would get knocked down first. Everyone thought Jack and Jaeden were the first too go and no one would disagree. That's why everyone was surprised to watch Jack shove Finn right off of Wyatt's shoulders making them the losing team.

Everyone got out of the pool and watched how Wyatt and Finn stripped themselves of their bathing suits and hopped in. A blush spread across Jaeden and Jack's faces seeing the other boys naked. They couldn't figure out why.

After that they boys got out and dried off, getting ready for the party. Everyone basically wore normal , but nice clothing. he girls were the ones who dressed up. Jack and Jaeden went to change in the far guest room. Jack wore a pink sweatshirt and acidwashed overalls. He felt cute and loved this outfit. Jaeden wore a white teeshirt and black jeans. His hair looked nice after just drying. "Hey Jae.. can we talk" Jack asked Jaeden after they finished changing. "Yeah anything for my best buddy Jack!" Jaeden replied gleefully. He was so excited for this party. He loved parties while Jack on the otherhand could barely stand them. "I know you are dating Lilia and all..... but are you.. bi?" Jack managed to get out. Barely anything was awkward between the two and this included. It wasn't awkwardness just curiosity. Nothing more .

"hm... Jack can you keep a secret?" Jack nodded at his friend. Of course he could. "I'm actually.. gay" "oh.. why are you still dating Lilia then?" "To hide it" Jack nodded. "Do you like Wyatt?" "I think I might" Jaeden replied. "Is it that obvious?" Jack hated to admit to his friend that he pathetically looked in love all the time but yes, yes it was. "Yeah.." both the boys laughed for a little.

"Jack are you gay?" "I don't know. I might be bi. I'm unsure" Jaeden nodded and leaned over to hug his bestfriend. They were so close and Jaeden knew he could trust Jack. Maybe Jaeden was bi too. Maybe.
