TYLERS P.O.V

"Zoe... I don't know what to do." It's been a month since I've seen Troye. No, nothing dramatic happened, but It's been forever since I last saw my best friend, the one that I like oh-so dearly. I've been rejecting my feelings for a while, but Zoe, the only person who knows how I feel about him, made me comfortable about it and I've finally accepted my feelings for Troye. My only problem: Does he like me back? I really don't know. I can't take the risk in telling him my feelings. What if he doesn't feel this way about me? What if I ruin our friendship? He's perfect to me. I can't wreck anything between us...

"Tyler... you're being overdramatic."

"What do you mean 'over dramatic'?! I'm practically in love with my best friend!" I was simply offended at Zoe's response. Can't she see how dangerous this is?!

"It's not that big of a deal. Just tell him how you feel about him. I'm sure he feels the same way, Tyler."

I glared at her through the skype screen. "Listen, Zoe. I don't know how you and Alfie got together, but it doesn't work that way when you are in love with someone you have such a strong platonic friendship with. This could ruin everything. He might think I'm weird or stupid and I just. I-I-I'm so nervous. What if he's already found someone? What if he likes someone else?" I didn't even realise I was crying until I finished. I looked up at myself in the top left corner of the screen: my eyes were red and puffy, my cheeks soaked with salty water.

"I'm sorry..." She closed her eyes for a few seconds and took and deep sigh. "Is there anything you would like me to do to help you?"

So many things ran through my mind, but one thing kept coming up. I must know how he feels about me.

"Zoe..." I looked down and felt my cheeks flush. I was almost embarressed to tell ask her to do this for me. I was acting like a middleschooler, but Troye and I's friendship was far too important to destroy. I have to ask her. Gathering up every single ounce of confidence I had in me, I looked at up at her and asked very clearly, (frankly because I didn't wan't to have to repeat it again), "Ask Troye about me- I have to know if he has the same feelings as I do." She didn't seem as disgusted with my question as I was. I can't believe how childish I'm being. Zoe just smiled at me and nodded her head as I took a huge sigh of relief. We chatted a little more and eventually said our goodbyes. I am very excited but I'm also very scared for the outcome. I'm not ready but I'm also very ready. All I can do now is wait.
