Alex had a problem, a really big problem. He had just realised he had a crush on his best mate, his straight best mate. 'I'm so fucked' was all he could think as he lay on his bed staring at the ceiling. Alex had realised he liked George when about 5 minutes ago he'd seen the man leaving the bathroom soaked and with only a towel wrapped around his waist. Alex's whole body heated up looking at George and he'd panicked and rushed into his room throwing himself on the cool bed.

Alex needed advice and quickly he was deciding who to go to. Did he ask Gee who was always very sympathetic? No her kind of advice really didn't suit the situation. James he'd ask James, he always gave the best advice hence why they called him PapiJames.

James:

Alex:
James mate ....
I have a problem
A really big problem

James:
What's the matter?

Alex:
I have a major crush on someone that
I definitely shouldn't...

James:
Well Alex why is it a problem? And who
is it ?

Alex:
It's a guy...

James:
Well there was a 50/50 chance of that
mate you Bi everyone knows that.
You gonna tell me who it is?
Do I know him?

Alex:
Yeah you know him... really well, it's
one of our friends

James:
Oh damn
Is it Lewis? Because I thought the whole flirting thing was a joke and he's got a
girlfriend ya know😳

Alex:
It's not Lewis....

James:
Mate just tell me.
I'm not gonna judge you, your secrets
safe with me

Alex:
Okay fine...
George
It's George

James:
Oh damn Alex.
Holy shit.
How long ago did you figure that out
you've lived together for like over
2 years now...

Alex:
About 5 minutes ago when I saw him walk through the flat half naked with only a
towel wrapped around his waist.
James, what am I supposed to do ?
HES STRAIGHT

James:
First of all calm down
Secondly how do you know he's straight?

Alex:
He calls himself an Alpha male, can't
really get much more straight than that

James:
But has he ever explicitly told you that
he's straight?

Alex:
Well no but he's definitely straight

James:
Alex stop assuming he's straight
Never once has he said that he is so why
are you assuming he is?
George is attractive... why has he never
had a girlfriend?
Hmmmmm

Alex:
Erm...

James:
Sorry that was Aria she apparently has
a lot to say on this topic
She's telling me to add her to this conversation... you okay with that?

Alex:
Yeah sure, I need all the help I can get

*James added Aria to the conversation*

Aria:
Hello Alex the queen of advice has
arrived.
I hear you are having a 'I'm in love with
my roommate' related crisis?

Alex:
I'm not 'in love' with him I just have a
crush on him ...
But yes I'm having a crisis.
What is it you have to say? James said
you had something to say?

Aria:
not in love with him okay sureee
But yeah I do have something to say...
ALEX please stop assuming George is
straight! You've never asked him... he's
never said that he is...
I thought Fraser was straight until
I asked him and he told me he wasn't
Do you see my point?

James:
Told you she had a lot to say...

Alex:
Aria I understand what your saying but
this is George we're talking about...

Aria:
Alex listen to me DO NOT ASSUME
THAT HE IS STRAIGHT
Like you said this is George we're taking about...
The same George that bought a phone
case with you half naked and surrounded
by pride flags and hearts....

Alex:
That was for a for a video you know
that Aria

Aria:
Sure that's why he kept it on his phone
then.
Right we are finding out whether George
is straight or not because I can't deal with
this denial

James:
I agree with Aria mate, let's not assume
George is straight until he tells us

Alex:
Fine whatever you two...

Aria:
I'm always right
Plus I've seen the way he looks at you
*the previous message has been deleted*

James:
Aria😳
I'm gonna pretend I didn't see that

Alex:
What did you say Aria ?

Aria:
I said nothing

James:
My lips are sealed mate

Alex:
Right okay then...
Well thanks for your help but George is shouting at me to come and eat so I
gotta go
Talk later xx

James looked over at Aria who was sat opposite him.
"What did you mean by 'plus I've seen the way he looks at you'" He asked.
"You really don't see it?" Aria asked back.
"No not particularly" James replied petting Otto who was sitting on his lap.
"Well fair enough it's when we all go out, you all get wasted and George sits there looking at Alex like he's torn, half in pain, half in love... somehow it's heartbreaking and beautiful at the same time" Aria stated. James sighed think about what she said. That was one of the things he admired about her she had this amazing ability of understanding people's complicated feelings.
"Well we will just have to see" James smiled and Aria nodded.

~Authors note~
