Ice Cold You

Chapter 18: Confession

Monday came in a flash. It's like weekend never existed. But Can has everything that happened in his memory and ingrained in his heart. Although he felt lazy waking up and going to school the thought of Tin waiting for him downstairs gives him the boost that he needs to conquer the day.
After their date that weekend Tin is already a familiar sight at the Marquez household. He dine with them on Sunday and slouch on their couch with Charles and Can while watching movies like everything is so normal except that Can is laying on Tin's lap or eating on the same plate nowadays. Can's parents don't think of it as a hassle. But even if without Can saying a word the way they look and at each other has alerted his parents that some special relationship is on going for the two boys and they are perfectly okay with it seeing Can has always a bright smile displayed on his face except when Tin or Charles is teasing him.

Tin's POV
I hate Wednesdays! Can cannot come with us during lunch since his schedule for that day got changed. Although we can still go home at the same time after our last period. I saw him running a while ago with Renz since he woke up late and his friend waited for him before going to class. I must say the jealousy that I am feeling whenever Renz touch or speak with Can already subsided to a tolerable level.
I am currently taking my lunch at our usual table with them when Martin showed me something on his phone.
"You are now the latest gossip our school can be proud of!" he said in sarcasm.
I look at it.
It's one of our photo that is currently rocking the cyber world. There have been several fan pages that featured us over the recent days.
This one in particular was taken when I invited Can on the skate park the other days.
"Daddy took his little devil to the park!" the caption said.

I'm impress at how they put attention to it.
12.1K reactions and hundred comments.
What's wrong bringing Can to a park anyway? The comments section is even worst!
"Tin is it true that you and Can are hitting in each other?" a girl with black curly hair ask me.
Not again, I sighed. I'm too tired of this kind of attention.
I saw Charles smirk from across the table while eating his clubhouse sandwich.
That bastard he is enjoying watching me suffer this way.
"Tin!" the girl said to call my attention.
"Yes! We are a couple but it does not concern any of you!" I blurted out in irritation.
Collective gasps filled the cafeteria.
I saw everyone with mixed emotion showing on their face. Shock, delight or amusement name it's present.

Renz POV
I am currently here at the classroom waiting for the bell to ring focusing on my phone and not with the professor doing his lecture.
"Ahhhhhh!" I said not to loud but enough for Can to hear.
He looked at me and you can see that he is asking me what happened to me.

Regaining my composure I let can see the video that I just saw. It was a live video from the university cafeteria.
I saw Can's I almost pop out after he saw the video.
"Caaaaaan!" I told him to get back his focus on me.
"How can you keep this a secret from me?" I said to the shocked boy beside me.
"I did not, you are just occupied by Vince!" he retorted back rolling his eyes at me.
Then the bell rang.
Can stand up and run outside.

Lucas POV
For some odd reason I saw how everybody seems to be occupied on their phone. Then a group of girl shout almost at the same time.
"Ahhhhhh!" they said at the same time.
I was about to walk pass them when I eavesdrop on them by accident.
"Tin already confirm and that he and Can are official!!" she show her phone to her peers forming a circle.
Quickly I fetch my own phone from my pocket. It's all over the internet now. Tin's confession about the status that he and Can share. From the background Can smirked before taking a bite on his clubhouse.

Enjoy your moment with Can because once I begin you will never gonna have a chance to regain him back.
