Ch.1

September 4 first day of school grade 12

Michael POV

As i look at the date i relized it has been 12 years of friendship between Jeremy and i.
It feels like just yesterday we met for the first time.I text Jermey telling him il be there to pick him up soon

Micha❤:Hey be there soon jer

Jer.bear🙃:ok i have a surprise for you

Micha❤:oh really what is it

Jer.bear🙃:see you soon dork.

As i flop down on my bed i have a huge smile on my face. I have a surprise for Jeremy aswell today is the day i tell him im gay but there is another part to it. Ever since the end of sixth grade i have had a crush on Jermey.

I grab my keys and jump into my PT cruiser and head to jers house. I probably could have closed my eyes i know this route so damn well.

Jermey POV

As i wait for Michael my dad opens my door and looks at me sternly

"DAD!! What have i told you please for the love of god KNOCK before coming in"i tell him annoyed

"Sorry son but i need to talk to you"he says in weird voice

Im confused but i go downstairs with him and the conversation starts with him telling me about Michael and im worried does he think im gay or something but he says that Michael has been acting strange around me lately i stop him before he says anything else cause i hear a knock on the door and i yell

"COME IN"i instruct

Michael walks into the door and smiles at us

"MICHAEL MAKES AN ENTRANCE"he yells laughing before hugging me tightly and we leave.

As we get into his car i tell Michael about what my dad said and i start crying Michael stops the car. I then relize Michael undid his seatbelt and crawled over to my side he switched me around so i was now sitting right tight close to him. He started to rock me side to side to calm me down. I start to breath slower.

"You good?"he asks calmy playing with my hair

"Y-yea and h-here t-this is for y-you"i stutter giving him a present

He looks up and then starts to open it its a book from grade 1 to now full of pictures throughout the years. He starts crying and hugs me and he returns the favor with a surprise for me.

"Aww thanks jer i love it"he says trying to keep chill

"No problem bro"i say smiling

"I have a surprise for you aswell"he says more queit

He looks sad or something and he cant seem to get the words out and i grab his face and rub his cheek. While wiping a few tears from his face he looks at me then takes a deep breath. Before saying something that i will never forget

"Im gay"he says in a loud quiet voice before he starts crying

"A-and ever s-since 7th g-grade i ha-have had a c-crush on y-you and mahal kita j-jermey"he says before just balling

I just stare at him i lean in closer to him. He raises his head to see me staring at him he moves closer. I was about to say something but i cant take it

Michael POV

Before i say anything Jeremy presses his lips against mine and i feel him smile and after what feels like an eternity he pulls away im in mixed feelings on how to react

"I love you jer"

"I love you too micha"

I press a kiss on his forehead before we get out of the car and head into the school but jerrmy looks uneasy. While walking into clas i grab jermeys hand he pulls away and dashed into class im confused. I put it aside and il talk after class. The bell rings and i grab jermey he asks me to talk in private so i take him behind the school he says he was thinking about what he did that morning and that he did not know what he was doing he was straight he like girls

"Im sorry micha i like girls and girls only im sorry if you thought i was g-gay or something"he tells me with a soft voice

Im without words after he says that he just stares at me he goes to grab my shoulder but how could he lead me on like that kiss me then say he does not love me and that he was just "confused"

"What ever jermey"

I say before leaving and walking inside class was about to start anyways when the bell rung everyone got out of their seats i grab my backpack put my headphones over my head. I hit shuffle i relax hearing the words of marley i get in my car and leave not taking a second to think about Jermey.

Jermey POV

I get out if the building and see Michael leave so my second choice is walk or talk to rich. I head inside to find Rich

"Hey Rich i need a ride Michael left"

Michael

I cringe saying his name aloud Rich agrees and asks me about how Michael left cause he never leaves without me

"Il explain in the car"

I explain to Rich about how Michael told me he was gay then he started crying and i said that was it but Rich knew it was not

"Thats not the end i can tell by your voice"

"It is thought"

"Jermey"

"You better te-"before he finishs jermey yells something i wont forget

"I KISSED MICHAEL" i scream in embarrassment

Rich is quiet after i tell him the ride home is queit Rich drives me home and stops the car i unbuckle my seatbelt and grab my bag i go to close the door then i hear a faint voice

"Talk to him"Rich just sits there in a daze

I close the door and Rich drives off i go to my door to unlock it and remember i left my key in Michaels car so i head over to his house and i knock on his door one of his moms awnser

"Hi dear what do you need"she says in a sweet voice

"I-is Michael h-home?"i stutter getting the words out

"Yes he is hes up in his room"she moves to the side to let me in

I run up the stairs and knock on the door no awnser so i slowly open it Michael is dancing to Bob Marley and i just stand in his doorway thinking to myself Michael is kinda cute im smiling and a small blush runs across my face. He turns around and freezes he sees my expression and looks puzzled

"Jeremy you ok" je asks me

"Yea your just really adorable when you dance"i freeze after i say that

"I-i meant i forgot my key in your car"

Michael walks closer to me and grabs my shoulders he whispers something in my ear and shivers go down my spine

"You're adorable too"

He pushes me onto his bed and crawls on top of me and rests his head on my chest

"I wove you"
