Petal & Honey

✿5✿

Rye and Andy were freshmen in high school. New beginnings and new feelings. For example, Andy had just realised his feelings toward Rye. At first, he tried to deny it, claiming there was no way in hell he liked boys. He was certain that all of this was crazy, until he thought about it.

When had he drooled over a girl? How many guys had he seen shirtless and blushed? When girls called him cute, there was no reaction he only said "thank you" and went on about his day, but when Rye had called him cute because he liked to dot his I's with hearts, he blushed super red. 

When rye held his hand, he felt like they were made just for each other. When Rye hugged him, he felt light and fluttery like a butterfly. When rye smiled, the whole room lit up like a thousand suns. So Andy came to the conclusion that he not only was gay but also was deeply in love with his bestfriend.

Which only hurt when he heard that Rye had a new girlfriend. Jenna was her name and stealing Andy's man was her game. She ofcousrse knew didnt know Andy had a crush on Rye and Rye, of course, was absolutely oblivious. Rye was oblivious to alot of things and love was one of them.

Andy was so obvious about his feelings but Rye only took it as normal behavior since they had acted like this since they were six years old. When they cuddled and watched movies, Rye was oblivious to Andy's little hints.

Andy would wait until Rye put his hand in the popcorn bowl and put his in at the same time hoping to create some kind of cliche movie moment. Instead, Rye hissed and slapped Andys hand away greedily stuffed his mouth with popcorn.

He then smiled with a mouth full of popcorn and a butter ring around his lips. Andy couldn't help but laugh at his childishness. Rye himself didnt know What he was feeling toward Andy. If he was told to describe it, he would say he was "feeling things" toward Andy but he didn't know if it was love.

Sure he loved to cuddle with andy and he loved when Andy held his hand. He loved when Andy smiled and he loved Andy's eyes. He loved his height and he loved his voice. He loved his sense of fashion and he loved his passion for singing even at such a young age.

He loved everything about Andy but he still didn't know if he was in love with Andy. Rye always talked to Andy when he was confused about something but he certainly couldn't go to him now. How could be go up to Andy and ask him about how does he know of hes falling in love with him?

Besides it didn't matter, he had a girlfriend now who was very pretty and nice. She had an amazing smile and long blonde hair accompanied by ocean blue eyes. She was the definition of "blue eyed blondie perfect body" but why didn't Rye feel anything towards her.

He didnt feel like kissing her cheek just because she did something adorable. He didn't feel like cuddling up with her and watching a movie. He didnt feel like sitting out in the yard on a blanket to watch as the Sun slowly sets bringing in the glorious moon.

He didnt feel like looking to his right to watch her as she smiled at the moon while the pale glow of the moon shined on her face. He only felt like this with one person but Rye still was oblivious to the fact that he was slowly falling in love with his best friend.

He thought that it was just because he and Andy had been friends for so long that he'd only felt comfortable doing those things with his best friend. "Yeah, thats it" Rye told himself before heading off to the cafeteria to sit with Adam and his friends.
