(Jeremy's pov) I giggled softly to myself as I went to my boyfriend's house. Michael and I had gotten together yesterday after an... interesting talk in his bedroom. Yeah, my original plan was just to tell him and the maybe get together.
Not have full on sex... but it was kinda worth it. I knocked on the door and Michael answered. "Hey Jere! Come on in." He smiled, kissing my cheek softly.
I walked in and we headed to his room, shutting the door. "So, what brings you over?" Michael asks, pulling me onto his lap. I smiled. "Just wanted to be with you." He chuckled softly.
"What? Was the other day not enough for you?" He smirked lightly, kissing me softly. I blushed lightly. "Michael! Shush." I huffed. Michael chuckled softly, nuzzling into my neck. I sighed.
"You know, I think we should bring Y/n to our date.. so he doesn't feel left out."
I suggested. Michael nodded. "If that's what you want, then we can do that." He smiled, hugging me close. I hugged back. After a while of deciding where we would go, we decided that we should go to the arcade and invite Y/n with us so he wouldn't feel alone.
I knocked on his bedroom door. "Come in." I walked in and sat on the edge of his bed. "Hey, Y/n. How you doing?" I asked, looking over at him. He looked at me. He had tears in his eyes.
"Not great... I like someone who I shouldn't." Y/n sniffed, sitting up. "Oh. Do you mind describing this person?" He shook his head. I had a strange feeling about what he might say....
"Well, he's a friend. And... is really cute. He always knows how to make me feel better and has the cutest smile. He just got with someone... and I am happy for him but..." Y/n sniffed.
I nodded, putting an arm around him. "Well, I was gonna ask if you wanted to come with Michael and I to the arcade?" He looked at me and raised an eyebrow. "Really? You wanna drag me along as a third wheel?" I shrugged. "I wasn't gonna say third wheel..." Y/n sighed.
"You're lucky I am willing to leave the house." He said, getting off the bed and stretching. I got off the bed and left his room, letting him get ready. I hope that this will stop Y/n from always hiding in his room. I know that since Michael and I got together that he doesn't want to be the "third wheel". I should know because I used to do that whenever I hung out with Rich and Jake. They're still dating. Anyway, Y/n just needs to hang out with us as if nothing changed. I even told Michael that we cannot act like a couple in front of him because that will just make him want to hide again and not hang out with us. And I don't want things to change because I'm with Micha.
After a while, Y/n came out of his room. "Okay, let's go." He said, walking downstairs. I followed behind him, leaving dad a note. We went outside and saw that Michael was already waiting for us in his p.t cruiser. He smiled and unlocked the doors. I got in the front seat while Y/n got in the backseat. After buckling up, Michael drove us to the arcade. Once we had reached our destination, we got out and headed inside. "Ah, the smell of over priced pizza and sounds of arcade machines really take me back." Michael said, smiling. I nodded in agreement. "So, what game should we play first?" Y/n asked, looking around. "Why don't you guys pick? I'll be right back." I said, leaving to go get some tokens. I'll let them have some time together. They are friends after all. Just friends... I hope. Yeah, they're just best friends. Nothing more. Totally.
After getting a good amount, I headed back to where they were. I saw Y/n laughing at something Michael just said. "I'm back." I said, getting their attention. They looked at me. "Cool. Now, Y/n here said that we should each take turns choosing what games we should play. And once we all get our tickets together, we should go to the prize counter." Michael said, nudging him.
"Okay. So, what game we gonna do?" I asked, giving us each 10 tokens. "PAC-Man?" Y/n suggested. Michael and I nodded, heading to the arcade machine. We all took turns, Michael getting the highest score. Resulting in getting a lot of tickets. We basically spent time just choosing a game, getting a lot of tickets and going to the next game. I would occasionally see Michael put his arm around Y/n or even flirt with him a little. Even Y/n would flirt back a bit.
This started to get me a bit worried about the possibility that they might actually be together in secret. Or... that Michael has feelings for Y/n and is just dating me to distract himself from those feelings. And he shouldn't do that. It's not good. Look, I did the same when I dated Christine just to distract myself from my feelings toward Michael. "Hey guys, I'll be right back..." I said, running towards the restroom. But, I just hid behind some arcade machines to spy on them. I couldn't hear what they were saying, but it looked like Michael was just talking to Y/n. Okay... good.
Right before I decided that I should head back, I saw Michael cup his cheek in his hand... he was leaning in. Then right in front of my eyes, he kissed Y/n. My eyes widened in shock. I watched as they pulled away. I stopped hiding and walked back over to them. "Hey Jere." Michael smiled, kissing my cheek softly. But I just said nothing... You know how people say love is real? Well... Love's real right? I hope it is... I really really do hope.
