After finding out what happened with Cyrus and TJ, Jonah decides to find out why Reed felt the need to nearly get into trouble. Told from a single POV.

Jonah POV

Cyrus told me what happened and I was becoming anxious very rapidly. I can't believe that Reed has a gun, he could've hurt my best friend.

He had pointed Reed out to me yesterday, and I recognised his face. It was very clear that he was one of those people who rebelled against everything.

I wanted to give him a piece of my mind, but at the same time I didn't know what would be the best way to sort things out.

I saw him across the street, so I used this as my opportunity to tell him what I thought of him. It wasn't going to be pretty.

Me: Hey Reed, what the hell?

Reed: How do you know my name?

Me: Cyrus told me.

Reed: Cyrus? You mean that loser who refused to shoot anything?

Me: He is very smart, and he knows what it means to stay safe.

Reed: He really made a bigger deal out of it than it needed to be.

Me: What if he had got hurt?

Reed: That wouldn't have happened, I wouldn't have let it.

Me: You expect me to believe that?

Reed: Well you should, it's true.

He was coming across as very arrogant, and that's one thing I hate. I wish everyone could just be humble and kind like Cyrus, but at the same time, I don't think anyone could ever be like him.

Me: Perhaps I have come across as harsh, but you need to understand that if you had let him get hurt, I would have to hurt you.

Reed: That's big talk from someone so short. Am I supposed to be scared?

Me: This isn't about that, it's about me looking out for my friends.

Reed: You know, I think you're jealous.

Me: How the hell did you come to that conclusion?

Reed: This is more the fact that Cyrus likes TJ isn't it? You're jealous because your best friend prefers to spend time with his boyfriend.

Me: I'm not jealous of them, if Cyrus is happy then I'm happy.

Reed: You really aren't sad about being alone?

Me: Why, are you asking me out?

I said that in jest, wanting to throw Reed off his game. It sort of backfired as he smiled and used it to his advantage.

Reed: I would love to take you out, I know how much you love a bad boy.

Me: What? Shut up!

Reed: You're reaction confirms it, don't deny it.

I didn't know what to say, everything was happening so quickly. As I stood in front of him, I felt my legs go weak, and my head was being filled with his image. I knew that I had to play it cool, or I'd be a goner.

Me: I don't know what you're talking about.

Reed: Right now, you want to kiss me.

Me: How...?

Reed: You haven't stopped looking at my lips.

I was rapidly losing my confidence and becoming more embarrassed as the conversation continued. I had to get myself out of this situation.

Me: I think you must be deluded.

I walked away feeling better about myself, but Reed was right. I did want to kiss him, although I made a pledge never to tell him that.

I hope you enjoyed this part.
