Jonah and TJ discover who had watched their argument, leading to the truth finally being revealed.

Jonah POV

I was shocked when out of the corner of my eye, I saw none other than Cyrus himself. This made me feel even more guilty than I already had. I only hoped that he heard everything, because he may well believe TJ otherwise.

Me: Um...

Cyrus POV

I had to intervene, knowing that I had just seen Jonah and TJ argue. I was wondering who I should be more angry with, but then I realised there was only one person I could be angry with, as only one of them had done anything wrong.

Me: TJ, what the hell?!

TJ: What? Are you jealous because I tried to make a move on your old crush?!

Me: I'm angry because of several reasons... You used me to try and get to Jonah, you told him about my crush and you tried to kiss him.

TJ: And that went well, did you see?

Me: I saw Jonah being my best friend... I always knew he would be.

TJ: Hey he's bi so you may get a chance. You're both freaks anyway.

My heart sank, TJ called me and Jonah freaks, but also he seemed very happy to hurt both of us, regardless of how much he supposedly liked Jonah. He left anyway, which was honestly a relief by that point.

I turned to Jonah and saw a broken boy. One who had lost all hope and confidence. This was not the Jonah that I knew.

Me: Um... Thanks for sticking up for me.

Jonah: It's the least I could do. I've not been a good friend in the past.

Me: Well, I wouldn't go that far.

Jonah: I've basically ignored your feelings. I didn't wear matching jackets with you. I thought I loved Andi and spent less time with you. Heck, I even became really jealous.

I was taken off guard by his statement. How on earth could Jonah ever be jealous of me? He's got it all, or at least I thought he had.

Me: For what reason?

Jonah: You had the courage to be open about who you are. I've never been able to admit how I feel about anything.

Me: It's never too late.

Jonah: I know, but I tried to go out with Andi, in order to hide the fact that I was different to most other people.

Jonah POV

I've never explained my feeling in such a genuine way before. I guess Cyrus had the effect of allowing me to be honest.

Cyrus: But if what TJ said was true, you're no more different than I am.

Me: What made it confusing was that I thought I was straight, until I met a really cool guy.

Cyrus: He awoke something in your heart?

Me: Yes, he made me understand myself, even though I find it difficult to accept.

Cyrus: If you accept me, I accept you.

Me: I would never be any other way, you are one of the most important people in my life.

Speaking directly to Cyrus had made me feel more confident in being honest, but at the same time, there was still a lot of work to do.

Cyrus POV

I have to say, this conversation with Jonah made me feel good. He hardly ever expresses his feelings to anyone, so the fact he's talking to me on this level moves me. I couldn't stop the smile from forming at being told how important I am.

Me: I'm the most important... to you?

Jonah: More than you'll ever understand.

Me: You are the most important to me to, JoJo.

Jonah: That means we feel the same, Cy-guy.

Me: That's a relief.

Jonah POV

This was turning into a great day. It started badly, but now Cyrus and I were most definitely on the same page.

Me: Would you be my boyfriend Cyrus?

Cyrus: Yes Jonah, I thought you'd never ask!

We held each other close for a little bit, and I must say that I wish we could stay in the same position forever. Then I saw Cyrus with a mischievous grin.

Me: Are you okay?

Cyrus: Come with me, I think we should pay TJ back!

Wow, Cyrus being bad? That's a first, but I was so intrigued that I would go along with whatever he wanted.

Cyrus POV

This was going to be great, I had quickly made a plan and TJ was going to suffer. I dragged Jonah along and when we found TJ, he was still smug.

Me: I see your happy.

TJ: Of course, I'm over Jonah and I was never interested in you.

Jonah: That's the nicest thing you've said all day.

Me: But now, this won't feel as special...

TJ: What are you talking about?

Jonah: Actually Cyrus, I need to know too. What are you---.

I cut Jonah off by smashing our lips together. Considering what TJ wanted to do, this was my way of telling him that he wouldn't get to me. Jonah was a great kisser and actually leaned me back slightly. As I balanced in his arms, he continued to kiss.

We parted and TJ had gone. It was sad we didn't get to see his face, but at the same time, I was glad that I was with someone who genuinely cared. I knew Jonah felt the same.

The end
