"No, I don't wanna do this." I said in a very unpleased manner, whilst sitting on Travis's bed and bobbing my shoulders ."Why?" Travis asked, with a disappointed, but sad look on his face. " I've never played monopoly before, I'm sorry" I murmured shyly, admitting the fact that I have no experience in this game whatsoever.

Travis stood at the end of his bed holding the board game in his hands and trying his best not to laugh. "What? So you're telling me u don't......OK, wow that's new. " He cackled, which made me feel even more embarrassed than I already was." You know what? Don't worry I'll explain it to u, it's pretty easy if u ask me."

We both sat on his bed and he explained the rules to me in the most simple way he could possibly do it, because I'm a little bit slow. I'm lying to y'all, I'm very slow.

I tried my best to stay focused and listen to Travis's explanation, but focusing on what he's saying is so hard when all I can focus on is the way he looks so handsome when he is really deep and focused on what he's doing. I kept nodding and agreeing with what ever he said, although I had no fucking clue what he was talking about.

I guess I am very transparent because he could see that I wasn't focusing.

"Hey. You need to give me all your undivided attention if u wanna understand this game." he said, with a very serious attitude that made really wanna focus more. " OK I'm sorry, it's just you're- ....." I paused, to scared to tell him the reason why I can't focus.

He then quickly asked " Is my explanation wack, I-I can change it if you'd like me to?". "No your explanation is perfect." I quickly replied back.

"Should I carry on or do u wanna start the game" he asked. "Ok let's give it a try." I said, after taking in a deep breathe because I knew I did not know what I was doing.

The game went on for hours, mostly because Travis had to stop and explain to me, and because it's only the two of us playing.

I actually started to understand the game and found it very interesting.

I was having sooooo much fun, till my alarm rang, which meant I needed to head home. "Damn, already?" Travis asked in a disappointed tone. " we were having so much fun and we just got started. Can u stay a little longer?" He asked in a really cute way that made me blush. fortunately he didn't notice because my skin tone restricts those abilities.

I stood up from Travis's bed, put on my shoes and grabbed my bag. "Travis you know how smy parents are." I said in a sad voice. I really enjoyed being with Travis and I'd do anything for us to have more time to hang out but unfortunately my parents are way to overprotective.

"Okay, then let me get ready so that I can drop you off." He insisted, but I could walk home and it would be useless so I rejected his offer. "No its okay I can walk. Its just a few blocks away." I said. "You sure?" He asked and I gave him a smile and a nod. "Okay then be safe I don't want you to get hurt or anything." He said.

I was just about to leave, then Travis quickly got of his bed and pulled me by my hand ," I really enjoyed your company. Please come back again and this time we'll do something different, something more fun." he said in a husky voice as he looked me straight in the eyes and licked his lips.

I could feel his big warm hands move towards mine, to a point were we were actually holding hands and looking straight at each other. I was so chill on the outside, but on the inside I was going crazy.

"I promise I'll come back again and see u" I said, looking towards the ground because I was so flattered.

I felt so good on the inside. it was so overwhelming and I knew what I was feeling, but Travis is just a friend and nothing more than just a friend and I would like keep it that way.

I know I have feelings for him and he has feelings for me, but it just can't happen because acceptance doesn't come easy with the type of people I live and surround myself with. I'm not saying that I'm afraid to love because I'm afraid of what people would say or do, I just know that Travis wouldn't be able to handle the discrimination and homophobia that gay couples go through.

We have shared story's together, expressed our feelings, kissed and he has even taken ownership of me, but we can't be in love, I can't put him through all this.

I guess I'll have to break it down to him someday (soon), but for now I guess we're just simple monopoly buddies.

I know this book starts of a little to fast but I promise u it's all for a good reason.

This chapter was to just give u a little taste of Jaylen and Travis's relationship as friends.

Please note that chapter one shows the relationship between these two characters. Chapter two ( and the chapters after that ) are a flashback that will go more in depth about how they became friends
