New Jersey Boys

"I Like You Too."-Kairi

MattiaXKairi

Kairi's POV:

Me and all the boys are at Mattia's right now. Most of us are on TikTok. Alejandro and Alvaro are playing FIFA, Robert, Pinto, and Roshaun are filming TikToks, and me and Mattia are laying down on his bed, him scrolling through his For You page and me scrolling through my comments.

Recently a lot of my comments have been about my height, my acne, and how I'm probably gay or bi, which I am. But nobody knows yet. There's always been some comments about that, but recently it's been getting worse. Now it's like 95% of my comment section. I mean me and Alvaro are the same height but nobody says anything about it to him. So why do they to me?

The comments make me insecure but there's really nothing I can do about it. I mean no matter how hard I try I can't get rid of my acne and I obviously can't just grow an extra few inches like that. And they don't need to know about my sexuality. It honestly fucking sucks. Like all the other boys are perfect and all of their comment sections are filled with support, while mine are filled with shit that make me insecure.

With all these thoughts running through my head, I start to cry. All of a sudden I feel strong arms wrap around me. Shit. I forgot I was with the boys. I try to stop crying but it's no use. I fully just break down in Mattia's arms. I've been holding it in for so long that the tears feel never ending. I feel all the other boys come over to the bed and pull us into a big group hug.

Everyone pulls away from the group hug except for Mattia. He just whispers sweet things to me to get me to calm down. He's always been the only one able to get me to calm down and I'm very thankful for him for that reason. Once I finally calm down, the boys start asking questions.

"What's wrong Kai?" Alvaro asks. "What happened?" Alejandro asks. "You okay?" Robert asks. "Wanna talk about it?" Pinto asks. "Want us to leave so you can talk to Mattia?" Roshaun asks.

I don't answer any of them because there's so many questions and it's overwhelming. I just hide my face in Mattia's chest. "Can I talk to Kai alone?" Mattia asks the boys. "Yeah. We'll go get some food for everyone." I hear one of them say. Once they leave, Mattia starts to talk.

"What's wrong bubba? Why were you crying?" He asks. I pull away from him so I'm facing him. "It's stupid." I mumble, looking away from him. "It's obviously not stupid if it had you crying for 10 minutes straight." He says. Holy shit. I cried for 10 minutes in front of all my friends. I'm a fucking pussy.

I feel Mattia shake me. "Kai! Stop getting lost in your thoughts and talk to me. I'm your best friend. I'm not gonna judge you. Just please tell me why you were crying." He says with pleading eyes.

"It's just the comments on my TikToks. Most of them make me insecure and point out the things that I'm insecure about." I say, looking everywhere except him. He grabs my chin and makes me look at him.

"What are you talking about bubba? Your perfect. What do you have to be insecure about?" He says, making me blush. "It's just they've been saying things about my acne and my height and myyyyy...never mind." I say. "No. What else do they say? If you don't tell me I'll just check your comments." He says.

"Fine. They keep saying that I'm bi or gay and I don't want them to. But those ones don't make me feel insecure. I just don't want them saying stuff about my sexuality." I say. "Awww. Come here bubba." He says, pulling me onto his lap in a hug. "Look. Don't feel insecure about your height. You can't control it. Plus. It's not all that great being tall. Don't feel insecure about your acne either. Everyone goes through it. And plus, I think it looks cute. And as for your sexuality. Why do you care if they say that stuff?" He says. Should I tell him? I mean he is my best friend.

"I care about it because I'm bi." I whisper. "Okay. So am I." He says. I look at him in shock. "You are!" I yell. "Calm down. Yea. I am." He says laughing. "Why'd you never tell me?" I ask him, playing with his hoodie strings. "It just never came up I guess. Plus I wanted to wait to see how you felt." He says, looking at me.

I look at him in confusion. He starts to lean in and I lean in too. Soon enough our lips connect and I felt a million butterflies. We pull away and he looks at me in the eyes. "I like you Kai. I always have." He says. "I like you too." I say. With that, he attacks me in hugs and kisses, making me giggle. Me and him cuddle until the boys get back with food. All thoughts of my insecurities leaving my mind.

All I need is Mattia and I'm good.

A/N
Okay so this is my first request oneshot. parklensbitch gave me this request. I really hope it turned out how you thought it would and I hope you like it. I also looked at her profile and she's one of the authors on here who's book I'm in love with and I almost couldn't function after I found out she read my book. I'm honestly really proud of this one. I'll be working on the other requests throughout the week. I just really liked this idea and started with this one.

~til next time,
