Pooki x Jerry

Chapter 2

  Pooki's POV 

      As Jerry approaches the group a small smile spreads on my lips. I have waited for a year to see these people, and the time has finally come. He gets to the group and smiles at us all. Max starts the conversation.

    "Finally all of us are here, we can go into the con!", He exclaimed excitedly. I'm glad I am not  the only excited one.

   "Jerry, why are you staring at Pooki? Do you LIKEEEEE HIMMMM!", Ross teased. Of coerce  Jerry liked me we had been friends for over a year. Jerry blushed wildly, his cheeks as red as the red rose petals in my garden back home. What was his deal, and why did he blush? I kept that to myself as we walked to the gate to check in. Our group made it through swiftly and entered the doors of the convention center. On our right were booths selling all types of merch from various anime's, on the left were a set of stairs to the next floor, which I guess held more booths. I smiled, had I ever been this happy? My answer came when Jerry looked at me with his signature smirk, my stomach did little flips. What the hell, why did my stomach do that? I don't like Jerry like that, we were good friends and that is all. When the little voice in my head said, " Liar ", I shook my head. 

      "Shelby is on the next floor up, her and Liam are waiting for us. We are going to go to the main show with them", Max stated as he started climbing the stairs. Max and Ross had known each other for years, lived with each other for about the same amount of time. They were close, they were like brothers, so when they started treating me and Jerry like brothers I was honored. As I climb the stairs with Max and Ross in front and Jerry behind me I feel a pair of eyes on me, more importantly from behind me. I turn my head slightly and I see Jerry's eyes staring right at my ass. I snap my head back to the front, so I can try to hide the red that is slowly creeping up my neck and settling on my cheeks. Why is he looking at me like that, and why was I liking it. We might be close, but were we that close? 

      We make it to Shelby, which is Ross's cousin, and Liam ,known on YouTube as HBomb94, and headed to the large room that held the main show for tonight, which was of course a Minecraft showcase. We got to our seats and realized that we were a seat short, which meant someone had to sit away from the group. I volunteered, because I didn't need to sit beside anyone. What I didn't expect was for Jerry to volunteer to go with me so I didn't have to be alone. Ross giggled and whispered something to Liam that I couldn't hear. Judging on the look on Liam's face and the look he gave me and Jerry, I could assume that it was Ross telling him about his shipping of us two. He even told his audience in one of his videos to write fanfics of us. I say my goodbyes and me and Jerry go to two empty seats, that were not reserved. I sit with a huff and try to focus on the show.

      About ten minutes into the show, I got distracted by Jerry's breath on the side of my cheek. I couldn't help but focus on him. It was like I was seeing him in a new light. His hair, his eyes, the way he can say something and light up a room. Why did it take me this long to realize that I love him, and not in a friend way. How the hell am I gonna explain this to the others!
