( Michael's pov)

I had woken up by 7 am and put on some actual clothes, along with my hoodie that I always wore.

I headed to the kitchen and started making some of my special sleepover pancakes I always made for Jeremy and I. But since he brought his brother Y/n, I needed to make more than usual. 

As I made the pancakes, I heard someone coming. Assuming it was Jeremy because he usually gets up around this time. " Morning, Jere- oh. Hey Y/n!" I smiled as I glanced over my shoulder.

" You act as if you didn't expect me to be the one to walk in." He said, leaning against the counter. I chuckled softly.

" Well, usually Jeremy is awake by now and he would come in here while I make pancakes, but it looks like he's still asleep. Heh, he's weird." I smiled.

After I finished making the pancakes, I asked Y/n how many he wanted. But when he didn't answer me, I turned around to see him just staring at me. I blushed lightly .  "Y/n! I asked you how many pancakes you wanted."

I said, making him blush. " Oh! Uh, just two please." I chuckled at his face as I served up his plate. He grabs it and sits down.

"Morning Michael and Y/n.." I hear a tired Jeremy say, sitting at the island. I smiled and gave him his pancakes. That, yes, were drowned in syrup.

I got mine and sat down next to Jeremy. After eating in silence for a few minuets, Jeremy spoke up.

"Hey, Michael... what's that on your arm?" He asks, pointing at my rolled up sleeve. Oh god.. I forgot to put on my concealer... I pulled it down.

"It's nothing..." I said. But he didn't believe me, he had that look.. Y/n looks at him then me. "Y/n. Do you know what it is?" He asks him, crossing his arms. I sighed. "Jere, its... vitiligo."

His eyes went wide.. " Wait... I thought we said no more secrets between us!" Jeremy stood up, stepping back.

" Jeremy, I'm sorry okay! I didn't mean to.."

" Didn't mean to what?! Keep it from me? That you thought I wouldn't figure it out? That's it! Since you think that you can't trust me... no, I'm not ending our friendship.. I'm gonna go for a while. I'll talk to you in a week.." he says right as he walks out the door.

I begin to tear up.... Y/n walks over to me and hugs me. "I meant to tell him.." I whispered as Y/n rubbed my back gently.

"Hey, it's okay. Jeremy can't stay mad at you forever. I should know. One time, I accidentally broke his phone and he stayed mad at me only for a day before coming back apologizing." He chuckled softly. I smiled at Y/n.

"Heh. Thanks Y/n." He nodded, smiling softly. "Now! Let's clean up the kitchen." And we do just that, clean up the kitchen.

After that, we go to my basement. Ya know what? I think that Y/n is a cool guy. Sure, we don't talk much since usually Jeremy's the one that comes over the most. But that doesn't mean that I don't wanna get to know Y/n.

I kinda like his personality and that you can just talk to him about anything and he'll listen. Not that I didn't do the same with Jeremy!

Yes, Jeremy listened as well and helped me through some stuff and one time we kinda.. kissed when we got high. More like I got high and kissed Jeremy.

Because, well... I kinda have a crush on him. But, I think that's gonna change when I start talking to Y/n more. Yeah, he's kinda cute, not gonna lie. But, still.

"Michael! I asked you something!" I hear Y/n say. Oh! I must have zoned out by accident.  "Sorry! I didn't mean to..." I began, but got cut off.

"It's okay. Now, I asked if you wanted to go to 7-11 with me. So... do you?" He asked, brushing some hair behind his ear. I smiled and nodded. "Sure! Let's go."

We left the basement and made our way to 7-11. I tell my moms and they say that's fine. On the way there, we both talk about random stuff. Get to know each other. And apparently Y/n is transgender. That's cool. When we get there, we get our favorite slushees. Pay for them and drink them outside.

"Ya know, I like talking to you. You're so nice and don't judge." I smiled, sipping my slush. Y/n chuckled softly.

"Well, you're pretty good too. I think you're my only friend that doesn't judge me." He smiled, blushing lightly.

"You're cute when you blush.." I said without thinking. Wait, did I just say that?! Y/n's blush darkened. "Thanks.."

God... I suddenly feel my phone buzz.
It's a text from Jeremy....

Jere: Hey dude, I'm sorry for getting upset earlier. I hope you can try to forgive me... but if you don't... that's ok.

Micha: Jeremy, you said that you would talk to me in a week. Why are you trying to apologize now? What gives?

Jere: Well forgive me for trying to apologize! I'm sorry, okay? I overreacted and I shouldn't have. Just forgive me, please!

Micha: No. You need to take time to think about what you said. We'll talk next week okay?

No response. I sighed and put my phone away. Y/n put his hand on my shoulder. "Just give him time." I nodded and smiled. Yeah.... I definitely liked Y/n.... hopefully just as a friend.
