Cyrus discovers that his crush on Jonah never actually went away, but this time, it's even stronger than before. Told from a single POV.
Cyrus POV
What was I thinking? I spent so much time paying attention to TJ, only for him to gently let me down. It wasn't his fault, but it still hurt so much.
After TJ had left, I met up with Andi and Buffy, tears rolling down my face. I felt like such a loser, as I had believed I genuinely had a chance with him.
Buffy gave me a hug when she saw me, but Andi was the first to say something. I really didn't want to have this conversation.
Andi: Cyrus, why are you crying?
Me: TJ doesn't like me. He never did.
Buffy: Did he say why?
Me: He isn't interested in guys.
Andi: You can't hold that against him, but at the same time, I can understand this being tough for you.
Jonah: Hey guys!
I was becoming more on edge, particularly with Jonah entering the fray. I had a huge crush on him, but I didn't say anything, as I knew it would've been pointless.
Me: H-hi Jonah.
Jonah: Cy, what's the matter?
Me: It's TJ, he didn't want to go out with me. He isn't interested in guys.
Jonah: Aw, but why get upset? Clearly he wasn't your soulmate. The person you belong with is out there, and you best believe that with all of your heart.
I allowed myself to look directly at his eyes, seeing his face. His dimples were so defined, and his smile was enough to make me go weak.
Me: Thank you for saying that.
Jonah: It's just the truth, and you deserve nothing less than that.
Andi: Come on Buffy, we've got to get on with our science project.
Buffy: Oh yeah, we must be going boys.
As the girls left, I felt upset yet happy. I was with Jonah and my heart was doing cartwheels. I was fully aware of what was happening.
Jonah: So, do you wanna hang out with me?
Me: Of course, I'd love to!
Jonah put an arm around my shoulder, and led me back to his house. By this point, I had completely forgotten about what had happened with TJ. In fact, I'd forgotten about TJ entirely.
I sat down on Jonah's bed, and he smiled at me once more, allowing my mind to be distracted and for my imagination to go wild.
Jonah: Are you okay dude?
Me: W-what? Yes I'm cool brah!
I cringed at the fact I was talking to speak like that. Jonah, being who he was, could see right through it.
Jonah: You don't need to do this. Just be yourself.
Me: It gets so tough at times. I feel so lonely.
Jonah: I feel like that constantly.
I didn't know that he felt like that, but it made me feel good to realise that I wasn't a loser. He sat down next to me, and I got excited by his closeness.
Me: Really? But you're so popular.
Jonah: People only go out with me because then they will be the focus of school gossip.
Me: Then they don't deserve you.
Jonah: In the same way TJ wouldn't deserve you, even if he did like guys.
I wondered what was going to happen next, as the adrenaline pumping around my body was giving me more confidence.
Me: I want to tell you something Jo Lamajama.
Jonah: Okay, what is it?
Me: I have the biggest crush on you.
I hope you enjoyed it.
Part 2 coming soon.
