Cyrus POV

Andi, Jonah and me were already waiting at The Spoon. It's 1:05 PM now and Buffy is late. That's really not like her. In the meantime we already ordered the babytaters. But there's one thing that's bugging me. Or someone.

"C'mon Cyrus I'm gonna die if you don't tell me how it went yesterday."

"For the last time Andi I told we wait for Buffy, I don't wanna tell it twice."

"So something actually happened?"

Jonah who was zoning out a bit for the last few minutes now got our attention with his question.

"Well you could say so but-"

I couldn't finish my sentence. The door rang and Buffy finally arrived.

"Hey guys, sorry I'm late, I had to help my parents this morning in the garden but it took langer than we expected, cause my dad forgot to buy some fertilizer. Did I miss anything?"

"No, you came to the right time. Cyrus here wanted to tell how thing went with TJ."

Andi proclaimed. How should I put all of that what happened into words? Buffy sat next to me and the basket of babytaters that was brought to our table helped me getting a few seconds to think about it.

"Let's hear it Cy-Guy we wanna know."

"Alright guys. So after we all sang together TJ went out to the bench near the fire and I followed him. It seems like he finally realized that Kira isn't really a nice person. Anyway we just talked for a bit and I asked him a few question. After that he asked if there was anything else I wanna know. At first I didn't know if he meant the same as me. But then his hand moved towards mine, you guys wouldn't believe how nervous I was! I then asked him if there is anything else he wants to tell me. After he asked me the same, he took my hand and I was literally dying!"

Andi and Buffy squealed loud, which resulted in getting the attention of half the costumers in The Spoon. They both gave me a hug, but Andi had to lean over the table, since she sat on the same side as Jonah. While I was burried under the hugs of my two friends, Jonah offered me a bro clap. I barely managed to navigate my arm to respond to it but I made it. Then Buffy whispered into my ear.

"I told you, it won't last."

Yeah she did. Buffy was right once again. But if I told her that now it would raise her confidence in her prediction game even further. 

"I never expected TJ Kippen, the captain of the basketball team to fall in love with a boy, especially not Cyrus."

Jonah baldly claimed. That did actually kinda hurt, but since this is Jonah we know he didn't mean it like that. That's just him being oblivious to the world.

"You didn't? You should've seen them both more often, it was visible for anyone. I'm pretty sure even Kira noticed it."

Kira... I literally stole TJ from her. I feel lowkey bad for her, but on the other hand I'm now with TJ I don't know how bad I really can feel for her. Andi cut through my thoughts with the following question.

"So is he your boyfriend now?"

I got pretty flustered by that question. It's not usual for me to talk about that stuff. This is all new to me too. I took a sip from my cola and gave an answer.

"Yes.. yes he is. We talked about this morning, I met him this morning while he was walking his dog. Anyway I'm not the only one who has some stuff going on."

With a grin I turned to Buffy and she already rolled her eyes.

"Well... after all it turns out Marty still liked me. Like actually like me. We even kissed."

I was a bit thrown back by her last sentence. They kissed... should've me and TJ kissed too? It didn't even cross my mind yesterday. I don't even know how to kiss. I mean I tried to kiss Iris back then but that was a desaster. Holding hands yesterday was already draining enough. I don't think I'd survive a kiss. I whonder how TJ is thinking about that.

While I was lost in thoughts Buffy told us everything about her and Marty. It seems like they are dating now, which makes me happy for her. But somehow this conversation unsettled more than it should've. I took my phone and looked at the clock. It was already 3:45 PM, I decided that now would be the time to go home. I said goodbye to my friends and left The Spoon. Man, having TJ constantly on my mind is a curse and a blessing.
