zach didn't know what to do. he also didn't know what to think. him and jonah have been friends for years. basically their whole lives. they've never done anything like that.

did it mean something? was it supposed to? to zach, it felt right. he had never kissed before, but as soon as it happened he felt like he knew what to do. he liked it and how it felt.

he wanted to do it more, but he didn't want to ask and he didn't know it jonah would want anymore. he just didn't know what to do.

but jonah, jonah loved it. he didn't want to show it, but he felt something. some part of him wanted to pull zach in and kiss him again. but he didn't, he couldn't.

they're just friends..right? did it even mean anything to zach?

his mind was filling with good and bad thoughts. he didn't know what to say.

"i-i don't- what do- um."

zach said, confused and taken back.

"what was that?"

zach asked looking at jonah. first he was looking at his eyes and then his eyes wondered down to jonah's lips. it's like they were calling his name.

"a kiss."

jonah said, which brought zach back into reality.

"did it m-mean anything?"

zach questioned, trying to find an explanation for what just happened.

"did it? you tell me."

jonah said. he knew it meant something to him. he didn't know what it meant, but it was something. he just didn't know if it meant anything to zach.

"i-i don't know."

zachs voice was shaky.

"here. let's put it like this. d-did you feel anything? was there something in you that felt..right when our lips touched?"

jonah looked into zach's eyes. his bright pink cheeks were a dark red color.

zach didn't know how to respond. he felt something but he was unsure what it was. he was just overall confused.

"i don't know. i mean, i felt something but i don't know what it was."

zach said to jonah, looking into his eyes trying to explain to his bestfriend that he was confused.

jonah nodded and grabbed one of zach's hands, trying to calm the boy.

"it's okay, zach. it was just a single kiss. you don't have to stress over it. it's gonna be okay."

jonah's voice soothed zach. somehow, he felt like everything would be okay since jonah said it would. and he grabbed jonah's hand back, he liked holding his hand.

but jonah pulled his hand away, thinking zach didn't like it he only grabbed back to be polite to him. but zach didn't say anything. he didn't know how, he didn't know what to say.

things were very confusing. but somehow to two boys just tried to act normal. they started to play truth or dare again.

<<•>>

"dare."

jonah said as he yawned, it was now 12:38 at night, they were still up playing.

zach knew what he wanted the dare to be, he was just too shy to say anything. he worked up the courage for a second and then said it.

"i dare you...t-to kiss me again. longer this time."

zach said, looking down. jonah made a face and nodded. he sat up and lifted zach's face up by his chin, only slight though.

he connected their lips and they moved in sync for about 25 seconds, then the two boy's both pulled away out of breath.

that time, that time zach knew he felt something. he knew he felt something, feelings, a crush, something. he knew he wanted to kiss jonah more, too.

jonah smiled when he pulled away, because that time showed him that what he felt before was surely there. he wasn't for sure what it was, but he liked the feeling.
