It hadn't been the best of times. He'd failed two tests, kicked off the football team for his poor mark sand lost his job at the local chip shop. Luckily I was there for John, no matter what.Here I was lying on his bed, holding him as he sobbed.
He cried, he sobbed he chuckled then stopped.
"Rocky, he's going to kill me," his voice was filled with fear. "My dad, he's gonna murder me!"
True, his father wasn't the sweetest father figure, but I'm sure he wasn't capable of murder.
He burst into tears, I joined in this time. I felt as though I lost the happy side of John. Hidden under the emotional scars this week had left him. His father, Robert, worked on oil projects in the Middle East- Middle Earth as John's geeky little sister, Roma, called it. He was due home in a few hours. Each tick of the clock seemed to go faster and faster, much like John's heart- or was it mine. It was mine- I knew it, and I had a feeling that John knew too.
"I'm sorry," He said lifting his head from my chest.
"What?" I said shakily.
He gave me a look, the jig was up- he knew I was hiding something.
"C'mon spill!"
I looked around the room to see if I could distract him. Nothing! Darn. I had to leave- if he knew it would spoil what little reputation I had. He was friends with everyone, including the athletes, popular people and the outsiders. His best friend was an outsider- me!
My eyes spotted small hazel eyes peeking out of the walk-in wardrobe. I nodded slyly to John.
"Roma!" He yelled from the bed, without moving. It was my one escape idea.
"Mummy says dinner's ready and Rocky has to leave." Roma squeaked.
"Oh, we'll, y'know your mother knows best. I'll see you tomorrow?" I pushed him off of my chest, pulled on my jacket and was halfway out the room in one swift room.
"Erm, yeah. Bye!"
Ah, bliss. That was really scary. He couldn't know- nobody could know. I was different- gay! And I was in love with my best friend!
