BROOK'S POV

After 15 minutes of waiting for Jack, I hear the doorbell ring, a sign that he has finally arrived.

I get out, open the gate and as soon as I see him in front of me I smile like a moron. He's wearing a green t-shirt, ripped black jeans and a pair of black and white Vans. He's so fucking good. As soon as he sees me he hugs me and at his touch I begin to blush and tremble, I still decide to embrace him again even if he notices my change.

"Are you okay?"

"Y-yes sorry, I'm just ..." I don't know how to finish the sentence, it completely freaks me out

"Are you just what?" he asks worried, looking me in the eyes

"No, forget it"

"Okay Mr. Wyatt, whatever you want," he says smiling. "Which way should we go?" he asks me when he finds two different ways to choose from

"Follow me" I take his hand in mine and he immediately looks at me dazed and in a fraction of a second he changes his expression, smiling at me

"Sorry" I look down and let go of his hand

"Don't worry, I didn't mind anyway..."

I can't find any answer about it. I start making a thousand mental films. What if he likes me too? I need to talk to Andy, absolutely! Wait, what did Jack have to ask me?

"Jack?"

"Yup?" he turns to me and stops, looking me in the eyes

"What did you have to ask me?" I ask looking him in the eyes too

"Ahhh yeah right" he laughs and I swear I fell in love with his laugh too

"The question will seem a bit risky to you, but I have to ask it, it's for a good cause"

"Okay..."

"Is Andy gay?"

"What? Why? Do you like him?" my eyes are so wide open that soon they can come out of me. It can't be true, Jack can't like Andy. It's all in your head, Brooklyn!

"No no, absolutely not"I finally start breathing again and my heartbeats are regularized

"Then why are you asking?"

"Okay I'll tell you everything. Ryan is madly in love with Andy. He thinks of him all day. As soon as he sees him he smiles like a child who has been given his favorite video game. From the moment he saw him he knew that boy would have him. changed his life by twisting it in the best way he knew" he says in a quiet voice, looking me in the eyes and smiling.

He seemed to speak from the heart. It didn't seem like he was referring to Ryan and Andy. Completely immersed in his eyes, I swam into them without being able, or perhaps unwillingly, to get out.

A tear rolled down my face as I truly, 100% realized that I had fallen in love with a boy, just like Ryan had. I looked down the moment I felt more tears run down my cheeks until they reached the edges of my lips.

"Brooklyn are you crying?" he asks worried as he looks up at me with two fingers on my chin. At his touch, for the second time, I begin to tremble. Jack notices it and hugs me. I find myself completely wrapped in his arms and, believe me, there is no better feeling. I feel like I want to stay for hours in his arms, I want to run my hand through his hair gently, leave him small and sweet kisses on his forehead and then go down his neck, I want to kiss his lips that seem so soft. I want to spend all the time with him, under the blanket with our hands intertwined and our warmth joined in one.

"Will you tell me what's going on?" he detaches himself from the embrace, keeping his hands resting on my shoulders as he stares into my eyes. I slowly stop shaking and my crying settles down.

I can't tell him, I can't screw it up, not this time. I have known him for so little and yet I already consider him essential for me.

"Jack I can't"

"What Brook?"

"I can't tell you what happens to me"

"Why? Cause we have only recently met?"

"No, I know that I can trust you. Even if I have known you recently, I know that you are a good person and I know that I can trust you"

"And indeed it is so"

"Jack, I don't want to ruin everything, as I always do ..."

"Ruin what?"

I do not know what to say. I have to find a good enough excuse, but on the other hand, sooner or later, I should tell him.

"Brook please say something. I really care about you. I can't see you feel bad. Please" he says with tears in her eyes.

"Jack, since the first time I saw you I haven't stopped thinking about you. Every time I look at you I get lost in your eyes and I don't want to leave them anymore. You make me feel good. Jack I have fallen in love with you and now I don't know what to do. I did not want to tell you anything because otherwise I would have ruined all the little we have built and I do not want to lose you" and once again the tears flow down my cheeks as if they were rivers in flood.

Jack doesn't say anything, not even a word and that makes me feel even worse. I disappointed him even though I didn't want to come to that. I definitely lost him! I can't believe it, I screwed everything up again.

"Jack please, now you have to say something" I look up and look at him with eyes full of tears and then my vision is blurred, but I can still see a beautiful smile on his lips

"Why are you smiling?"

"Brook" he takes my face in his warm hands "It's the same for me. When I first saw you, when you were looking for the right doorbell, you looked so confused, and when I spoke to you you stared at me for almost a minute before answering me, every time I looked at you and blushed you were too cute. I haven't stopped thinking about you since that day, and I don't want to stop. So since obviously the feelings are mutual, Brooklyn Wyatt, do you want to make Jack Duff the happiest person in the world and get together to him? " I can't believe those words! He still has his hands on my cheeks and I feel in heaven

"Of course I want it" to this statement of mine smiles and kisses me. I don't know how long the kiss lasted, I just know that I've never felt better. I felt complete, the feeling of emptiness I was feeling has vanished, he filled it.

"However, you still have no answer to my question: Is Andy gay?" he asks laughing

"I don't know. When I find out I'll tell you" I reply laughing too

I didn't know it would happen, Brooklyn Wyatt getting together with the guy who came into his life, making it a masterpiece.

He takes my hand in his and we continue our walk as a couple, this time, and I can't be happier.
