The Ones For Him

|49|

Dom's POV:

We were all sitting in the waiting room for the doctor to come out. I was holding onto Milo's hand while I looked at Benji, who was sitting across from me with Quincy on his lap. They were busy taking turns and playing games on Benji's phone.

I noticed that they've gotten a lot closer even before any of this happened, and I wasn't going to lie, but I was getting jealous. I knew that they wouldn't date each other, but they were still so close and I felt like they were hanging out a lot more. Quincy still even made time to have some alone time with his lovers. So while he was busy with them, Benji would just be by himself and play games on his phone.

Even Milo had noticed it, and asked Benji about it, but Benji just said that he wanted to give Milo and I some alone time to be together. I appreciated that he wanted to do that for us, but he's been saying that for a while now. I never confronted him, because I was a bit nervous to go up to him, but I was slowly building up the confidence to ask him why he was being distant.

I heard him laugh quietly with Quincy about something on his phone and sighed, looking down at Milo when he continued to stare at the side of my face.

"What?"

"Why don't you just ask him why he's acting distant?" He looked over at Benji and Quincy when they laughed again.

It was beginning to annoy me, but maybe it's because I was jealous. "Because we're in the hospital and I don't want to make a scene."

"It won't become a scene unless you make it into one." Milo chuckled when I rolled my eyes.

"I won't..." I clenched my jaw when they laughed harder and bit my bottom lip. "I'll try not to..."

Milo shook his head with a soft smile and started up a conversation with Kian, who was sitting beside him, about me being jealous of Benji and Quincy.

I wanted Benji at my side right now, so when they laughed a bit louder, I finally got up and walked across. Quincy looked up at me, but Benji continued to play on his phone.

"Benji, I think Dom wants to talk to you." Quincy patted on his wrist and that's when Benji finally looked up.

"What do you want to talk about?" He briefly looked up at me before putting his attention back on his phone.

"Let's not talk here, Benji..."

"Why? Is there something wrong?" He turned his phone off and looked up at me when I didn't answer. "Ok, you have my full attention now you can talk."

Quincy noticed how awkward the situation was getting, so he moved off of Benji's lap and went back to Levi and Kai.

"Let's talk somewhere more private, Benji..." I grabbed his hand, but he tugged it away from me, getting up and walking ahead of me.

I stared at his back in shock, but that surprise quickly turned to anger. I followed him down the corridor and glared at his back. When we reached the restroom, I locked the door and roughly pushed Benji against the wall.

"Why have you been so distant with me lately? Did I do something?" My voice softened at the end and I furrowed my brows when Benji didn't look at me. I turned his chin and placed my hands around his waist. "Did I hurt you somehow?"

"No..."

"Then why are you acting like this? I can't help but be jealous when I see you hangout with Quincy more than me. I want to have some alone time with you too, Benji..." I stared at him and he finally met my eyes. He still didn't answer my first question so I asked him again, but a bit more firmly.  "Why are you acting like this, Benji?"
