Colby Brock x Jake Webber

Getting Ready for the Party

Jakes POV:
I waited until I was sure Colby was in his room to go talk to Corey. I wouldn't want him walking in while we're talking, that's for sure. Especially since the topic of conversation is him, well... I guess it would actually be my crush on him; but still, the conversation revolves around Colby. As I walked over to Corey's room, I thought I heard Sam and him talking. I was about to start walking back to my room when I heard what they were talking about.
"Okay, you were right. Jake likes Colby."
"I knew it!" As I walked away from Corey's room I couldn't help but feel a little betrayed.
Why would Corey tell Sam after I told him specifically not to? I guess he just doesn't care enough to respect my wishes. And to think I was going to Corey's room to get help with telling Colby that I like him.
"Great, that's just amazing." I muttered to myself pacing around my room. It's my fault for telling him. I should have denied everything. Why am I so stupid? Why did I have to come out? I could have just kept this a secret and gone on to live my life, without this stupid shit happening.
"Why do I have to like him?" Lying down on my bed, I said this to no one but myself.
"Why do I have to like him?" I say again, more of a whisper this time.
"Why do you have to like who?" Jumping into a sitting position on my bed, I turned to face Aaron, who was standing in the doorway with a questioning look on his face.
"Um... no one, it's, it's nothing Aaron." Sighing Aaron stepped into my room, closed the door, and sat on the bed next to me.
"I won't tell anyone Jake."
I scoff replying "Ya, that's what Corey said too; but he just told Sam so why don't you go ask them?" Aaron looked surprised, I couldn't tell if it was my tone or the fact that Corey lied straight to my face.
"He did what." Aaron deadpanned.
"Yep. He promised me that he wouldn't tell anyone then he goes and tells Sam. I believe his exact words were 'Okay, you were right. Jake likes Colby.' There you go, now you know too. I wonder who's going to tell Colby." I say bitterly, not wanting to deal with this now.
"I'm sorry Jake, that was a real dick move; maybe he thought he was helping? Sam is Colby's best friend." Sure, helping is equal to lying to my face.
"The least he could have done was ask me."
"I agree, but for the record; I think Colby likes you too, just in case you were wondering." Aaron pats my back, gets up, and leaves the room, the last sound for the night was the sound of my door closing.

Colby's POV:
•beep, beep, beep•
Ugh, alarms. That means it's either the morning and I have to get up, or the house is on fire. I'd stay in bed for either.
"Colby! Get up! You and Jake need to go pick up the alcohol and solo cups!" Ugh, great. I have to go with Jake. I mean, I don't mind the view but I'll get distracted by him waaaaay to easily.
"Fiiiine." I know no one could hear me, but I still answered. Getting out of bed was the hard part, the rest was easy. Get dressed, brush teeth, brush hair, done.
"Hey Sam, where's Jake?" I hate that smirk.
"He's probably still sleeping, you should go wake him up; loverboy."
"Ha. Ha. You're so funny." Rolling my eyes I walked over to Jakes room and opened the door. He's definitely not asleep and he is also definitely not wearing a shirt.
"Um... he-hey Colby..." He's cute when he stutters. I'll have to make sure I don't stutter around him today though.
"Hey Jake, you almost ready to go?" That came out surprisingly calm. Now he's blushing, cute.
"Um... ya, just um, I just need a shirt then we can go."
"Okay, I'll be in the living room." Shit, why does he have to be so cute? I think to myself as I run down the stairs to sit on the couch. I'm going to go crazy. I can drink at the party, I know what will happen if I do. I'll get drunk and tell Jake, then he'll reject me. My thoughts were interrupted as Jake came down the stairs. "Ready to go, Colbs?"
"Oh god, he's wearing my shirt." I mutter under my breath, trying not to stare at him.
"Hmm? I didn't catch that."
"Oh, ya I'm ready." He turns around heading for the door and I can't help but laugh.
"Really Jake? Two different coloured socks?"
"Huh?" He looked down in confusion (I would assume) then started laughing along with me.
"I didn't change the ones I slept in..." Adorable.
"It's fine, just a bit funny don't you think?" He kept looking down, not at his socks though; just at the floor with a small (adorable) smile.
"Ya, I guess it is." He smiles bigger as he looked back up at me, his eyes meeting mine.
"Colby? Jake? Have you guys left yet?" Whoops
"No! We are right now though!" Jake seemed a bit off when he headed Sam but he quickly covered it up.
"I call driving!" Jake ran towards the key hooks grabbing his keys, rushing out the door, and hopping into his car. How many times is he going to prove me right today when I call him adorable? Because that right there was truly adorable, lovable,charming, do I need to go on? I didn't think so.
"Someone's excited." I say as I get into Jakes car.
"Of course I am, this party is gonna be a good one, I can feel it." Sighing I closed my eyes, putting my head back on the headrest.
"Is something wrong Colby?" Of course he noticed that.
"No, I'm just tired."
"I could have gone by myself, you could've stayed and slept more." Awww.
"No, no, no, I wanted to come."

Jake's POV:
"No, no, no, I wanted to come." At least I get to spend time with him now. I can't wait for Danny to come to the party, stealing Colby away. Yay.
"Now, I think I should b asking you if your okay." Shit.
"I'm fine, Colby."
"Your grip on that steering wheel says otherwise, what's going on?" Fuck, what do I say? I can't tell him the truth!
"I'm just worried about telling all the fans..." Good cover.
"They'll accept you and I, haven't you seen all the comments about how many people actually want us to like guys?" That actually made me smile, in turn loosing my grip on the wheel.
"Ya, that's true." We pulled up to the liquor store and headed it, grabbing a ton of alcohol. The guy carded us, then told us our total seeing that we're legal. One moment I'm getting my wallet out then I hear the store clerk saying "debit or credit?". Of course. He had to be the amazing person he is and pay for yet another thing.
"Colbyyyy, you said next time you'd let me pay." I pouted, probably looking like a five year old, but I didn't care.
"Well, I lied. You aren't paying for anything."
We took our things heading out of the store, and into the one just next door to get all the cups.
"I'm paying this time."
"Hm, are you sure about that Jakey?"
"Yes!" No, you're gonna end up paying, just like you always do.
"We'll just have to see about that now won't we?" Sighing I put my head on his shoulder muttering a "please?" I just want to pay for something for once. Colby put his arm around my shoulders, dipping his head down next to mine to say "no. way." Okay, we're definitely flirting. Thank gosh, it wasn't just me.
We walked around the store trying to find the solo cups, eventually asking for help.
"Where are the solo cups?" Colby asked one of the people working.
"They're just over he-" When he looked up he stopped talking.
"Are you okay, man?"
"Ya, ya... um, are you Jake and Colby?" Ohhh, he knows us from YouTube.
"Yep." We answered at the same time.
"Is it okay is I get a picture with you guys?" I nodded while Colby said yes, taking his arm from around my shoulders. I didn't even realise his arm was still there. He took the picture then directed us to the solo cups.
"Can I ask you guys a question?"
"Shoot."
"Are you two dating?"
"No, why?" I asked confused.
"Sorry... it's just... when you guys came in here you had your arm around Jake..." oops?
"It's okay, we've actually been getting that a lot from the fans." Colby spoke up putting his arm around me again as a joke.
"Ya, we should just date right Colby?" I said in a joking voice. I wish it was true though...
"We should. Well I guess Jakes my boyfriend now, that should be fun." We started laughing but even after the joke Colby didn't take his arm from around me. I grabbed the cups, trying to subtly move closer and closer to Colby, I must be getting tired cause I yawned. "Jake, you can't be tired! We have a party to set up, and go to!"
"I know Colbs, but if we get back soon then I can take a nap or we could watch a movie before we have to do anything for the party." "That sounds good, let's pay so we can get home quickly." We walked to the counter putting the cups down to pay for them. Of course, Colby rushed to grab his wallet, as did I. I got my wallet out first and was about to open it when Colby took it from me only to get his own wallet out to pay.
"Colbyyy..."
"Jakeyyy..."
"You're annoying, just let me pay for something!"
"What did I say before? Oh ya, nope." He said popping the "P", as Henry (the fan from earlier) looked amused, whispering "They're definitely dating." under his breath; I assume no one was supposed to hear it but I did. At least he thinks we are dating.
"Here's your wallet back, I can't really pay with both of them in my hand." He could just take his arm from around me, but I'm glad he didn't.
"Whatever, lets get going so we can watch a movie or something." I yawned again leaning (not so subtly) into Colby. We left the store and got into my car, Colby driving this time. He said I was 'too tired and might fall asleep at the wheel' I guess he doesn't want to die, who knew? The drive back to the house was short and we took everything into the house, setting it down onto the counter. We both headed over to the couch sitting next to each other.
"What movie do you want to watch Jake?"
"How about... Scott Pilgrim vs The World?" I don't really care for the movie but I know it's one of Colby's favourites.
"That sound good. I'll go get that, you go get the blankets?" I went into my room grabbing the biggest blanket I could find and ran back downstairs to where Colby was sitting on the couch, movie on pause waiting for me. Aww, he waited for me. Okay, that's just a normal thing Colby would do. Stop making it like he only does things for you. Jeez. I sat next to Colby on the couch putting the blanket over both of us. I fake yawned, hoping he would put his arm around me, it worked.
"You sure you don't just want to go to sleep Jake?"
"No, I wanna watch a movie with you." I sighed contently moving closer to Colby, laying my head pretty much on his chest. About half an hour into the movie I started to fall asleep. Just before I did I heard the front door open, but I couldn't stay up any longer.
