*Mike's P.O.V.*

My stomach started gurgling. UUUGGGHH! I'm so hungry! "Hey Jere want some pizza?" Please for the love of God say yes. "Sure, I'm getting pretty hungry." "Yes!" I fist pumped my hand in the air. I picked up the phone and dialed the number of the other Pizza place down the street from the bank. "Hello and welcome to Zippy's Pizza. What can I do for you?" Pepperoni pizza was just calling my name. "Hey Jeremy what kind of pizza you want?" I covered over the phone with one hand. He shrugged. " One pepperoni pizza." "Alright that'll be 6.87. We'll be there in 20-30 minutes." "Alright." I went back to Jeremy. "So JereBear..what ever shall we do till the pizza gets here?~" I sat him on my lap keeping my hands on his waist. "I actually have a bet for you." A bet? "Like what?"

*Jeremy's P.O.V.*

"You can't kiss, hug, or call me JereBear until the pizza gets here. And if you fail you can't kiss me for a week." He stared at me as if I was crazy. "But I'll die if I dont, are you trying to kill me?" He dramatically fell off the couch to the floor. He can't be serious. "It won't be that long. I'm sure you can do it" I wanted to test him and see how long he could go without doing that stuff. "Fine JereB- Uh I mean Jeremy." hehe, how cute.

*Le time skip for the 5th time to about 25 minutes later*

"Is the pizza here yet, Jeremy? Can I hold you now?" He asked, holding his arms out. "No, almost." I said patting his head. Someone knocked on the door and I went to answer it, obviously it was the pizza guy. "I think this is the pepperoni pizza you ordered, 6.87." I nodded handing him the money and receiving the pizza. "J-Jeremy? I-Is that you?" My eyes widened studying his face. Its him. Of all people HIM!? "G-Gavin?" No no no no, this can't be. "How have you been?" I can't look at him. "G-Good. You?" "Good. Y'know I never really got the chance to explain myself back then, it wasn't what it looked like, he forced me to." I don't care, I don't want your explanation. "There's no need, I forgave you and Josh a long time ago. Look I need to go nice meeting you. Bye." I lied, closing the door.

I placed the pizza on the table and sat back down. "What's wrong JereBear? And who was that?" I sighed trying to hide the emotion in my voice. "I'm fine, Mike." he pouted looking at me, pecking my forehead with a kiss. "Jeremy. Don't hide anything from me, what's bothering you?" Right now it's you but I don't want to be rude. "It's nothing. I'm going to the bathroom." I stood from my seat, going into the bathroom and locking it. I bent down into a corner, hanging my head into my hands. Why of all the people in the world, Gavin had to show up? I keep trying to forget him and when I finally did he shows right back up. Why?

Flashback to when Jeremy was in college

G: "J-Jeremy there's I wanna tell you.."
J: "Hmm? What is it?"
G: "I-I l-like you a-and I w-was w-wondering if you would g-go o-out with m-me?"
J: "W-What? You l-like me?"
G: "Y-Yea. Y-You don't have to I-If you d-don't want to."
J: *smiles* "Its alright. I don't mind going out with you, you seem really nice."
G: "R-Really? That's great!~ *hugs* I....I love you, Jeremy"
J: "I-I...I l-love you too *hugs back*

3 weeks after dating

Jo: "Hey Gavin~ Wanna hang out?"
G: "No thank you, Josh."
Jo: "Come on, you know you want to."
G: "No. Leave me alone."
Jo: *pins to the wall* "I'll just have to make you change your mind~"
G: "Leave me alone! I already have Jerem-" *gets cut off by kiss* *kisses back*

J: *enters room* Hey Gavin you in he- G-Gavin!?"
Jo: *moves away*
G: "J-Jeremy, I-its not w-what it l-looks l-like! P-Please, let me e-expla-"
J: "I DONT NEED AN EXPLANATION!! Goodbye Gavin." *runs out the room*
flashback ends

I quietly sobbed when an image of a razor appeared in my head. N-No, I can't. But..... I stood up on my wobbly legs and opened the cabinet, grabbing the razor I secretly hid in the far back. I cut deeply into my skin, making the blood escape my arm. Why am I even hurting myself over him? I can't possibly still have feelings for him, that's impossible. My heart jumped when I heard a knock on the door. "Jeremy? You in there?"
