What do you do when you kiss your brother's rival while trying to be him?

You avoid him. I avoided Andrew all throughout yesterday because I couldn't bring myself to face him. I feel it will be a lot easier to confront him if Jace is around.

Today is our first game in the championship and according to Rico, the team we're up against is the weakest team in the league.

I should be excited but I'm nervous. If Jace's flight gets delayed, then I'll have to go up as him but that shouldn't be a problem I hope but still,why then am I so worried?

I was on my way to class when someone called out to me. I turned around and saw Orion. Oh dear.

"Hey, I'm Orion. I'm friends with your sister and she tells me a lot about you. Anyways, I've been wanting to talk to you since like forever, So hi" He waved nervously

"Urr, Hi" I don't actually have a single idea what to say to him.

"Ok, I'll see you later" He sprinted off to class. What a cutie.

I walked into class and everything was the same and oh yes, I completely forgot that I'm sitting next to the guy that I'm trying to avoid. I settled down on my seat and opened up my book just to avoid a conversation.

"Hey, we need to talk" Andrew whispered

"I'm currently reading my book" I pointed to it. He stretched his neck and took a sneak peek at my book.

"But the Page's blank" I look down at the book and embarrassment washed over my face.

"Pfft, That's what you think but it's not just a blank page, it's a blank page filled with ideas. It's blank which means that I can craft any subject I want to on it" I immediately regretted what I said

"That makes no sense at all?"

"I know, let me go with blank page with imaginary words. Tch, that's not any better. I'm just gonna shut up" I said

"Look I really need to talk to you after school, so please meet up with me at Dunkin donuts. I'll buy you a donut" He said

"But we have a game today"

"Dude, the game starts by nine in the night. I believe we have more than enough time after school" He said

"I mean, I guess I'll have to go. Now let me read my book in peace"

I was really worried about meeting up with Andrew but when he came out of Dunkin donuts and handed me a box of donut with chocolate and strawberry fillings and sprinkles, I knew I made the right choice.

"What the hell happened that night?" He pushed his hands into his pocket as we took a walk in the park.

"I don't know what came over me but I guess I kissed you"

"Are you gay? What of Maddie? Wait, so that means you're Bi? Right?"

'Play Along' Maddie's words replayed in my head. I swallowed a deep breath and said it

"I'm confused about this feelings. I thought I was a perfect straight guy but I guess not because the urge to be closer to you keeps getting stronger" We stopped at the bridge in the park. I dropped my box of donuts and held his hand.

Ugh, I have to say all this sweet things to Andrew and most of all as Jace. If this was Love, Simon, it would have been cute but it isn't and it's anything but cute.

"I don't understand myself either, this past few weeks, you've changed into a different person and I'm getting attracted to you too. I think I might also be confused about my sexuality. I feel powerful when I'm around you these days and your presence gives me hope"

Ok, Who knew Andrew could say words like this?

He stared into my eyes just like that night in the closet. He caressed my cheek and pinched it. He enclosed my lips in his and I kissed him back.

This is the second time we're kissing and all though it's not a long and passionate kiss but more of a 'I'm tryna figure out what my feelings are', a part of me is responding to his touch.

I can't catch feelings for Andrew.

'Cough, cough'

Did I just write a kiss scene between a guy and a girl with the POV of guys?

In my head, Love, Simon kiss scene is just playing. I'm not really into LGBT but I love that stuff. It's the cutest gay series and even movies I've ever watched.

Don't worry, this is just a confusion process.

Andrew thinks he's becoming gay because he's falling for Jace but it's just Julian.

Anyways, let's see how things will go from here.
