Jonah becomes frustrated when he watches TJ and Cyrus hang out as boyfriends. He decides that he should try and find out if he would have a chance. Told from a single POV.

Jonah POV

I couldn't bear this any longer. Ever since TJ asked Cyrus out, I've felt really depressed. I know that I should've been honest with him to begin with, but TJ made the first move.

I sat in the spoon with Buffy and Andi, and we watched from across the room as Cyrus and TJ were flirting and being affectionate to each other.

Me: That should be me.

Andi: What?

Me: I should be dating Cyrus, because I genuinely care about him.

Buffy: This is all coming out of the blue, you've never even mentioned feeling that way.

Me: But I do feel so strongly about him. He's adorable and he makes me happy.

Andi: Why didn't you ever tell him?

Me: Because I didn't think he would ever be interested in me.

Buffy: Well, you shouldn't feel like that.

Me: You know what? I'm going to talk to him.

I stomped over to where Cyrus and TJ were hanging out. I knew it probably wasn't any of my business, but I had to do something.

Me: Hey Cyrus.

Cyrus: Hi Jonah!

I have to be honest, when Cyrus greeted me, his face lit up and it made me feel good. Then I remembered that he was dating TJ.

Me: How are you?

Cyrus: I'm okay, just hanging out with TJ.

I decided to be civil, so I turned to TJ and held out my hand for him to shake as I greeted him. Not surprisingly, he didn't shake it.

Me: Hi TJ.

TJ: Ugh... Hey.

Me: Is something wrong?

TJ: No, come on Cyrus, we've got to get to the movies.

Looking at Cyrus, I saw that he was looking a little bit intimidated. This made me worry that he was unhappy.

A second later, his face had changed to a frown, which is something I don't think I'd ever seen Cyrus do.

Cyrus: Actually, we don't.

TJ: Just please, let's go.

Cyrus: What if I don't want to go?

TJ: Then it means you don't love me.

To be honest, I wasn't expecting to watch an argument unfold in front of my very eyes. I knew that the best thing would be to not say anything.

Cyrus: You know what? I think I don't love you.

TJ: Why did you agree to go out with me then?

Cyrus: Because I didn't realise that you could get so uptight about anything.

TJ: We were supposed to go on a date, but we are left with a third wheel.

As TJ pointed over to me, I felt extremely awkward. To be fair, he did have a point, but I couldn't hold back, I had to be honest.

Me: I'll admit, I am very jealous.

Cyrus: You are? Why?

Me: Because you were with TJ, and I thought that I'd missed my chance with you.

Actually saying that out loud made me worry, but I was more concerned about the fact that TJ looked as if he was going to attack either of us.

Part 2 in the making.

I hope you enjoyed.
