keeping the distance

Chapter VII

Mek stared at Ann wondering how will she receive the news, the fact that they been friends for years and it has never Crossed neither of them that he might be gay.

Now imagine confession this kind of a secret with there attachment, he likes the same guy as her, Mek felt like he was in a bad drama. But Ann continued to look directly at him with a concerned look and she is touching his hand to show currage and support by holding it filmy with both of hands, she continues doing this with smile on her face. when Mek was about to open his month he was interrupted by someone clearing their throats this made him turn and it was boss standing right next to them and looking at their hands and Ann suddenly let's go of his hand smiles at boss.

Wow that was fast did he even urinate or he went to the toilet to look glance at himself in the mirror. He stood up from the bench and   Ann followed by standing also and they continued towards the entrance of the mall. " When should we do this again, maybe next time we can go ice skating rink after the movies " Ann said. boss didn't reply so I say " Yaa that sounds perfect, hell Yaa, I doubt that I can still skate" we both laugh ... " the last time I skated was during that outing we did in 11th grade " Ann turned to look at me " you have to be kidding me Mek, I went to the rink a couple's of time after that.  remember how the guy who worked at the our rink was cute" " of you did you had motivation to go" I say that with a wink.
she were laughing and boss was smiling at looking at us.

Somehow his smile didn't reach his eyes, this was starting to concerned me. I wanted to know  ,why he's so tense lately and so distant.

Ann got in a cab and left me a boss right outside the mall. We discuss sharing a cap since I'm planning on sleeping over his to continue our gaming this seem to please boss and has me smiling like a dummy.

So we arrive in his dorm apartment taking off our shoes, I decided I need to address this now rather than waiting or wasting time like I did with Ann. "Hey Boss, do you like Ann ?"
He shakes his head and says " I wish I did you idot" he was whispering so I couldn't be sure I heard him correctly. "Huh? " Boss continued going inside his to sit on his bad and turn on the gaming system.

" No , I don't like that bro , she great don't get me wrong " I wanted to dance at that moment but I still need to play match maker so I sit next to him but not to close and ask " I thought you said you wanted to date"
"I do, besides it looks like she might like you bro " that confused me " wait what ?"
" Ya Mek , dude think about it , she always asked for your help for things and she always hangs on you arms and find excuses to touch you " wait are still talking about Ann here, when did she touch me.
" Boss when did Ann touch me " Boss straight out laughed and shaved at my shoulder " dude tonight during the movie your arms where touching at the restaurant you guys touched the some folk at the same time when I went to the toilet I came back to you too cuddling in the benche " wait what , is that how it looked when I was about to ask boss continues " to honest I won't be suprised if you tell me now you to are dating" " what no way man Ann us like my siste , beside Ann has a crush on you" I laughed "so is that why you been tense the intir night "
" Yes , I thought you guys asked me tag along on you date , I felt like a third wheel"
" How can you feel like that when you are out with your hubby" this shocked Boss he turned so fast my sure he dizzy so he shaved me again" since when do you refer to us like that ?" " Well I guess since now " that when he jumped me and pulled in the bed since I was sitting near the edge and pushing me to lay in my back while was above me.

" Let's me cuddle then and remove the other person's scent on maybe even get a kiss from my hubby " I knew boss was joking but I hope he will kiss me and cuddle and he didn't to my disappointment he just sat up again " let's play Minecraft on the Xbox "

So I decided to continue with my teasing so I pull him against me and hold him filmy against me, I expected him to struggle but he did not . We stayed like this a couple of minutes.

Once boss started to push away from me I let him go and expected some questions but nothing he was went to the fridge and came back with some beer's and hand one over to me.

We sat without saying anything just drinking the beer's after about 4 , I was drunk so was he.

He started to ham some song that Did not know and then asked "Mek do you think am loveable ?" That struck me " this adorable guy didn't notice how amazing he is " so I tell him "heck Yaa . You are great boss , why do you ask "

" Well it's been three years since we know each other and been close, throughout those three years ," ( he took a beep breath before he continues) " I've been trying to show you that I'm in love with you but the funny thing you don't seem to notice" my eyes are wind my heart is drumming hard in my chest " but now you are trying to set me up with someone , if you don't like me just tell me and stop looking at me like you will one day tell me you love me, or (he started to whisper) maybe I seeing things that are not there " tears are running down on boss face " I want more then just being you friend ,I know I'm selfish by ruining our friendship but I believe I've been passionate long enough for you to realise the feelings I have for you" I wondered how could I've seen this and I wanted to remove the his tears and tell him ,I'm so sorry for being stupid and not realise that he like me too . We laying on the bed facing up so I turned to him and pushed him with my body on the bed to hold him in place.

I was scared that he would disappear and this won't be real so , his head was on a pillow, eyes were closed and tears running down , even as I hold he didn't open them. I
Kiss him so soft at first to see if my advices were welcomed afraid that I would break this spell boss was under. I felt him lips sucking respond to mine and his hand touching my the back of my head and the other in my middle pulling me to him. kissing him felt wonderful that I wanted more.
