Josh's POV

I sighed as Jaden took off with Zoey again. Quinton saw me, staring at them and sighed as well. He took my hand, dragging me to the couch.

"I don't want to make out, Q. I don't like you." I said, softly.

"I know." Quinton said.

We sat on the couch and the others quietly joined us. We sat in silence then we all looked up at the same time as if on cue.

"We know, Josh." Griffin said.

"What?" I asked.

"We know you like Jaden." Kio said as he sat on Griffin's lap.

"I-I don't like Jaden." I said.

"Yeah right." Bryce said.

"What?" I asked.

"And he likes you." Quinton said.

"What?" I asked again.

"Just ask him out!" Noah yelled.

"It's not that easy." I said.

"We'll help you." Blake said.

"Come on." Kio said. "And if Zoey and Quinton find lovers then I have a game we can play."

"A game?" I asked.

"Yup." Kio said, happily.

"You're way too excited about this, Kio." Griffin said, picking Kio up.

"Stoooopppp." Kio whined, trying to get out of Griffin's grip.

"Not until you calm down." Griffin said. "And kiss me."

"Fine." Kio said.

He planted a kiss on Griffin's nose and got out of his grip. Kio smiled, grabbed my hand and we took off upstairs. Kio cheered.

"Cheater!" Griffin yelled.

"You just mad cause I won!" Kio yelled back and I laughed.
