(BMC)Five Squips and a Jeremy

Chapter 8

Eventually lunch rolled around, and Jeremy was trying to find words to explain that he was dating two people.

"Jere relax, this is a normal thing okay?" Michael was gently caressing Jeremy's hand with his thumb, and Jeremy had his hand gently wrapped around Christine's, her fingers still tapping to something. "Oh well here's the second biggest couple in school."

"Oh thhut up Michael. Wait...holy thhit you're holding handth...you are gay." Rich's eyes lit up and both boys laughed. "What?"

"He isn't JUST holding my hand Rich." Michael eyed Christine's hand and both boys were smiling wide.

"Jenna is going to flip her shit." Jake mumbled.

"Why am I gonna flip my shit exactly Jake?" Jenna asked from behind him and he quickly pointed to the couple sitting in front of him. "Oh my God are Michael and Jeremy a couple!?"

"We'll, Michael and Jeremy and Christine." Jake answered and Jenna's jaw dropped.

"No fucking way, I'M SENDING THIS TO EVERYBODY!!" She yelled and Jeremy's face flushed red as he heard her hit send.

Not even a few seconds later, Brooke and Chloe ran over in gym clothes, sweating and freaking out.

"You all are dating?" Chloe asked through heavy breathes.

"Y-Yeah we're just a giant polynamrous relationship." Jeremy smiled awkwardly.

"That's two way romantic." Michael said right after.

"And one way platonic!" Christine exclaimed, pointing to herself and Michael with a wide smile on her face.

"Oh my God that's adorable." Brooke made a heart shape around the three of them with her hands and giggled.

"Wow they really ship you guys. What would you be even called!?" Sal yelled, and Jeremy sent a mental shrug his way. "I'm thinking Meremy Cheere, yeah that's like both romantic ways combined!! I'm so amazingly smart!" Sal smiled happily and Keira put a hand on his head. "BISH YOU DON'T TOUCH MY HAIR!!"

"Shut up and look at them kissing Jeremy's cheeks! Look at this display of bisexualness Sal! It's freaking beautiful!" Keira was forcing Sal's head to look at both Michael and Christine kissing Jeremy on the cheeks at the same time.

"Oh my God look at the happy gay and the happy bi...and I mean I have no clue what Christine is but she's not straight because nobody is." Sal squealed and the other Squips were watching in enjoyment as Jeremy couldn't stop himself from smiling.

The day finally ended and Jeremy received two kisses before Michael drove him home, in which he received another kiss at the end of.

He walked into the house with a wide smile on his face, and was surprised his dad was home early, at least early for his new schedule.

"Woah Jeremy what's got you so happy?" He asked through laughter and Jeremy couldn't help but spin around to reply.

"I have a girlfriend!"

"That's amazing Son! You're doin' better than your old man already."

"AND a boyfriend!!" Jeremy's mood quickly fell when he realized his dad didn't know he was bi.

"You really are like me." Jeremy cocked his head in confusion and he dad laughed. "You don't gotta be scared I'm gonna reject you because you like boys Jeremy. I like boys too, well boys and girls."

"Holy crap you're bi!?" Jeremy asked and his father nodded. "Woah I've been enlightened!"

"C'mere, I wanna tell you a funny story about one of the guys I dated." Jeremy skipped on over and plopped on to the couch. "So first thing, his name was also Paul, so Paul Squared. That was out nickname, even though a lot of people were disgusted with us, and considering our first kiss was in the back of the algebra room...the joke only made sense."

"Wait wait what!?" Jeremy laughed and his dad sighed while smiling.

"I know it's funny. It gets funnier though, because you wanna know where that guy is now?"

"Where?" Jeremy asked and Mr. Heere put a hand on his son's shoulder and smiled wide.

"Your drama teacher, Mr. Reyes, is that guy." Jeremy, as well as all his Squips, were staring in utter shock at this revelation.

"You dated Mr. Reyes!?!?"

"Yep. I also dated Michael's mom at one point...well his biological mother. That's why she babysat you when you were really young, because she was essentially my best friend."

"I have so many questions, like, do you have pictures of you and Mr. Reyes together?"

"Yes I do but you'll get to see those later. Now tell me who they are."

"Michael and Christine." Jeremy's face turned red at the thought.

"Knew it."

"Oh my God Dad!!" Jeremy laughed before he made his way upstairs.

He threw off his bag and shoes, and made his way to his drawers and found some pajamas.

He went into his bathroom and stripped off all the clothes he had been wearing and got into the shower calmly, glad the Squips weren't watching, even though they're in his mind.

He began mumble singing and froze when he realized what it was.

"Dammit Chrissy has me singing Hamilton again...whatever I mean the song describes my mood right now." Within a few seconds he wasn't mumbling anymore. "Boy ya got me helpless, look into your eyes and the sky's the limit I'm helpless-"

"You think he'll ever listen to another song in Hamilton other than Helpless?" Keria was sitting on Jeremy's bed, throwing her jacket across the floor and watching it glitch out of existence.

"No. That song has been in his head since this morning." Sal replied, trying to try a new look for his upper torso outfit, sighing until he snapped into a crop top with a longer jacket that had short sleeves. "I think I just found my new favorite outfit."

"Guys is it just me or does Jeremy seen happier now?" Shane asked, laying back in Jeremy's bed and holding up the Blinky plush that's always there.

"Definitely." Winston replied, and all of them realized how quiet Eric was being.

He was leaning against Jeremy's window sill and sighed.

"Eric are you alright?" Winston asked calmly and Eric nodded.

"Yeah just...coming to terms with the fact I can feel things now... that's all."

With that, Jeremy walked out of the bathroom, letting steam released into his room.

"Were you talking about me?" All of then smiled awkwardly and shook their heads. "You were. Don't lie." Jeremy laughed and they ended up laughing with him.

That was probably the calmest night Jeremy had had since the Squip reactivated.
