I never hated you - Nick Mayorga x Adi Fishman

Chapter 14 - Confessions

"I like someone else." He replied simply. I narrowed my eyes in confusion,

"Who?" I questioned. He rolled his eyes sassily and looked at me,

"It doesn't matter."

"Adi please. We're supposed to be friends, come on." I pleaded pouting slightly. Adi looked at me then looked down frowning. He looked back up and looked me straight in the eye, "You, Nick. I really like you." He said not breaking eye contact. I froze. A lump was forming in my throat and my head was spinning.

"Adi..." I sighed looking down breaking eye contact for the first time in ages. I felt like crying. I knew I still liked him but I loved David but a part of me felt like I had to convince myself I did.

"Look, Adi, if you told me this last week then I would have kissed you and told you I felt the same way but I love David and I... I'm sorry." I responded turning around and walking away.

"Wait, you...you love him?" Adi said. He sounded heartbroken and I wanted to rush over and hug him and tell him I didn't but I couldn't.

"Yes, yes I do. I should leave. See you at school, maybe." Adi flashed me a hurt look and a tear fell from his eye; I shook my head and rushed out the door. I hopped into my car and sat there for a minute. I didn't know where to go, I didn't want to go home and be alone, I couldn't tell David, Tal was definitely off the list, Cenna would choose Adi's side so that left Jojo, my best friend.

As I arrived at Jojo's house I wiped my eyes and rushed to his door as it begun to rain, typical. I lightly knocked on the door and Jojo opened it. He smiled but it dropped when he saw the state I was in he opened his arms wide and I immediately hugged him.

"Nick? Talk to me, come on!" He said guiding me towards his sofa. He walked into the kitchen then came back with a glass of water. He rested it in front of me then he sat next to me. "So what's wrong?" He ushered me.

"He...he said he li...Likes me. Why...why would he do...do that to...To me." I stuttered between tears. I didn't know why I was crying so much. Maybe because some part of me wanted to go to Adi and tell him I feel the same then we would live happily ever but my mind wouldn't let me leave David.

"Who Nick!" I didn't answer, "Nick, I'm trying to help!"

"Alright, alright, it's Adi!" I exclaimed. "Adi?" Jojo replied with no expression his face. I nodded in response waiting for him to say something. He started smiling; I stared at him in confusion.

"That's great! He finally likes you back, why are you upset about this?"

"Because I love David and Adi probably will decide that he's not gay in a couple of weeks." Jojo nodded in agreement but then stopped,

"There's a difference between loving David and being in love with him!" I just glared in response,

"I know and I do love him."

"Are you sure you're not trying to convince yourself." I shook my head no,

"I came to you for advice not for you to criticize me."

"Just stay away from Adi for a couple of days until this whole situation has died down and you know how you feel about David."

"I do know how I feel!" I said while walking to Jojo's front door Jojo following me and giving me a knowing look.

"Sure you do! See you tomorrow Nick!"

"Bye."
