AFTER SCHOOL
Jackson
I open my book and I start reading the first page as I see Forest, my best friend walk up and sit next to me. "Hey bud, glad you got in Art 3 and all, buuuuuuut I kinda need you to do something for me. I know how you are gay and all, but so far in the closet you can see Narnia and all, BUUUUUT my brother needs to know if Matthew Elgan is gay."He closes his eyes and waits for me to hit him, if I was going to (and I totally was).
I look at him in shock. "Isn't your brother Jeremy like 13?" I ask
"Yes but he is gay; and he has a huge crush on Matthew." I groan. "So basically you are asking me to out myself to the entire school, all for the sake of your baby brother who you love so much." he nods his head slowly.
"OH SHIT. YOU LIKE MATTY BOY!" he teases. But I hit him hard in his arm. I notice my mother and I get into the car.
"How was your day sweetie?" she asks. "Quite good actually; I got into Art 3, it is the highest art class in the school. Very little people get into the class." I said looking at my phone as we arrive at home. I look for Matthew Elgan's number and send him a simple message.

I turn off my phone and begin reading my book again. I groan. 50 shades of gray, I have been wanting to read this for a while.
TIME SKIP BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE POWER OF GAY
MORNING
I walk into the school, smiling and Mathew taps on my shoulder and I turn around. He has a bright smile on my face and he pulls me under the A wing staircase. It was quiet, and no one was around so our footsteps began to echoe as we reached there.
I turn around and look at him in his face, "hey Matt, a friend of mine was wondering if you are into guys. I know that you are straight and you sleep with all the girls on the cheerleading team and all, but if you just aw-" I got cut off my the sudden feel of lips on mine.
I close my eyes and begin to kiss him back. After a few seconds Mathew backs away from the kiss. "Yeah, I am straight. But I think looking at how cute you became after we stopped talking, I think I am starting to be bi."
I look at him speechless as he kisses my neck. I push him off me. "I SAID IT WAS FOR A FRIEND. I MAY BE GAY, BUT I DON'T LIKE IDIOT JOCKS LIKE YOU!" I slap him and start to walk away before I turn around and spit one more comment to him "and don't think that because I am gay, I would want to be your little test subject for your sexuality."
I walk into the cafeteria and sit next to Forest. I hug him and watch as Mathew glares at Forest. I stick my tongue out and Forest catches on to my behavior and puts my tongue in his mouth. He moves closer to me and puts me on his lap.
I look over to see Mathew moving over to us red with anger. I mov my finger like I am saying 'no no no' and he turns away angrier.
I move away from Forest and smile. "Thanks Forest, you saved me." He smiled slightly and frowned. He has had a crush on me since forever, and I think I keep hurting him whenever I ask him to do this stuff. I feel bad whenever I do so, cause he always asks me out. And we practically are dating without all the titles or the sex.
"Anytime. Just please don't take my feeling for granted anymore and just go out with me. Or this will be the last time I'm letting you do that." He says quietly in my ear.
I frown slightly and touch his hand "I'm sorry Forest, you know I cannot do that. I don't see you as anything besides my best friend." He nods lightly and continues eating his food.
LUNCHTIME
So far all day I could feel Mathew's eyes on me. It was kinda intimidating. I sit next to Forest at the table.and Mathew walks up to the table.
"Hey Jackie, could you tutor me in math? I'm failing and if I don't pass the test in two weeks, I won't be able to play." I scoff and continue eating. "Like I care, fail." He grabs my wrist and gets me out of my seat. "Please or I will kiss you again." I growl and submit.
"One condition." I say, "shoot." I see him stare into my eyes. "You don't ever talk to me ever after this is done."
He frowns slightly and nods. "Deal." I smile and sit back down.
I look behind me and I see him stagger his way to his table, and I smirk.
"What was that about? You kissed him?!" Forest said angrily. "Forest, it wasn't a consensual kiss. I don't even know why he kissed me. Trust me I didn't even like the kiss. You could taste remnants of liquor, and you know how I hate liquor." He looks at me with semi kind eyes.
"Please don't fall for him" I hear him mumble. I touch his shoulder and give him a kind smile as I look over at Mathew, as he is looking back at me.
8TH PERIOD
I walk into the class and watch as Mathew walks in and sits in the seat next to me. "Hey Jackson, you know I hate it that you completely ignored me yesterday. I was so happy you were in here, yet you stayed so quiet. It made me quite sad." He made a sad face and made a fake tear fall.
"You were the one who stared into my back?!" I said kind of quietly. He nodded and layed back in his seat with a smile on his face.
"SO CLASS TODAY WE ARE GOING TO BE DOING ART" our teacher boomed across the class and the whole class becomes quiet.
I look up at her and smile.
A/N
Hey guys. I am so so so sorry for the super late update, I've been busy with school, and I am pretty much on the A/B honor roll now😊. I had seriously tried to update, but I had been so busy trying to do homework. Like I said last chapter. I will try to update of Friday's, but the next update won't be this Friday, but next week, or as soon as I can.
