No, me and Zak aren't official. Yet. I really want to ask him. But I want it to be special and romantic, so I need to organise something..
unless he asks me first..?
-
I awkwardly look at the little group of friends who surround me as I feel obligated to answer the question.
"No. No, we're not." I say, awkwardly avoiding the focused eyes which belonged to Zak, who was staring at me.
"Oh- I see. Sorry." Alex replies.

I can tell Zak is still looking at me, but I force myself to ignore it.
"A-Anyway. So, Alex how is the gamer club going at school?" I say, desperately trying to change the subject.
"You have a gamers club?" Vincent asks, oblivious.
"Yeah. It only has two members though.. Me and Darryl..." Alex says, awkwardly as he slouches down in the swing.
"I'll join." Zak smiles at Alex, trying to lighten the mood.
"Really?"
"Of course!"
"Thank you Zak!"

Alex and Zak smile at eachother for what seems like forever and I suddenly feel a wave of jealousy take over my body.

Without thinking, I place my hand sternly on Zak's thigh, almost as if I'm claiming my territory.

I don't know why I'm doing this, I always thought of myself as a bottom. I know, it's embarrassing. But it's true. But, around Zak, the thought of him even LOOKING at another male makes me so jealous and overprotective. Which I'm not sure is a positive thing or a negative thing.

Zak looks at me, after my sudden power move, and shoots me a 'what's wrong' look on his face. I just simply roll my eyes, stubbornly, as I turn my face the opposite direction.

In the corner of my eye I can see Zak's eyebrows narrow as he desperately longs for my attention.

Vincent and Alex continue to talk about the gamer club and how to join it since Vincent is going to join.

"Darryl.." Zak whispers into my ear as he lightly leans over to my head.
"What?" I whisper back, sarcastically acting oblivious.
"Stop doing that.." he says, looking down at the floor.
"Doing what?" I continue to act oblivious.
"You're being jealous." Zak says, raising his tone a little bit but not loud enough for Alex and Vincent to hear.
"No I'm not. I don't get jealous." I say as I narrow my eyebrows as I remove my hand from his upper thigh and put it on my lap.

I then jump off Zak's lap, subtly and sit down next to Vincent. I can tell he shoots me a little look to say 'why did you move from Zak' but I choose to ignore it.
