Cyrus' pov
I ran as fast as I could, all the way to TJ's house, without thinking, of what could happen.

When I got there, I was nearly out of breath. I walked over to his door, panting.

I knocked on his door, weakly. Luckily, he opened it.

"Cyrus?" Tj said, clearly confused.

I looked at his face, and I couldn't say anything. I still don't know why, me being gay, had anything to do with the situation, with Tj.

I brushed it off, and stared into TJ's eyes for a moment, before bursting into tears. Tj pulled me in the house, and shut the door.

"Here come sit down" Tj said, worriedly. He grabbed my hand, and my heart fluttered for a moment.

I walked over to the couch with him, and continued crying. Before I could say anything, he pulled me into a hug.

I'm not sure why, but I felt butterflies in my stomach, as he hugged me. I'm pretty sure, I've just missed being around him.

"What's wrong? Is everything alright?" Tj asked.

"I- no it's just- I missed you" I said, instantly regretting the words.

I realized they came out so wrong, and I wanted to take them back, but I couldn't. I was about to change my words but I was cut off by Tj
"I missed you too" he said, smiling sadly.

His smile made me feel like it was only us in the room- well it was but, it made me feel like we were the only people in the world.

I'm still not sure why I'm feeling this way. It's a strange feeling. I've only felt this way, around Jonah.

I mean maybe I just- I was snapped out of my thoughts, when TJ's mom came through the door.

"Oh" she said, looking confused. "Are you ok?" She asked me.

What's up with people asking me, if I'm okay, today?

"I'm ok. TJ's just making me feel better" I said, smiling lightly.

"Oh. Okay." She said to me. "And what's your name?" She asked.

"Cyrus. Cyrus Goodman" I said giving her a smile.

"Cyrus? TJ's always talking about you" she says smirking.

"Oh" I exclaimed blushing.

"ok well I'm gonna go do some work. Have fun" she said while walking away, raising her eyebrows at TJ's concerned face.

I had no idea why she did that.

"Moms y'know?" He said scratching the back of his neck.

When he brought up the thought of moms, I instantly started getting worried. I didn't have my phone with me, since I left it in my room.

My mom has probably called the police by then.

"Oh no" I said.
