Joel's POV

"You can't do this forever" Said Chris. "Watch me" I said. "Joel, you're acting like a child" Said Richard. "Avoiding him isn't going to do either of you any good" He said.

"What do you mean, I'm fine" I said. "You are, but is he?" Said Chris. "That's not my problem" I said.

"You went through all that to make him see you guys are friends and then you just disappeared on him. You don't think he's hurt?" He said. "How would I know, it's not like I opened any of the millions of messages he's sent me" I said.

"I think I know exactly how he feels..." Said Chris. "Really, how?" I asked with a hint of sarcasm. "See for yourself" He said pointing at Erick. "Its only been 2 days, he moves on fast" Said Rich trying to  hold in his laughter.

When I looked at him he was kissing Zabdiel.

"Joel are you okay?" Asked Chris. "I'm fine, completely fine" I said. "You sound like you're going to go over there and hurt Zabdiel" Said Rich. "No actually, I don't care" I said. "Just to be safe, let's walk the other way" Said Chris.

Erick's POV

"The things I do for you" Said Zabdiel. "You're the one that said to make him jealous" I said. "I didn't mean WITH ME" He said. "But then you said 'fine, I'll do it'" I said. "That's because I didn't think you were going to kiss me" He said. "How else was I supposed to make him jealous?" I said. "I don't know but you do know that now he's going to try to kill me right?" He said.

"Regardless if he has real feelings for you or not, You're his and that's that" He said. "What?" I asked. "You're fairly new here so you don't know this but once you're with Joel, you're only with Joel and if he sees you with anybody else, he comes for them" He said. "Are you trying to scare me?" I asked. "No, that's just the truth" He said.

"Don't you realize that ever since you and Joel happened, nobody but me talks to you? That's because everybody else is scared Joel and his two psychotic friends are going to hurt them" He said. "Mhm sure, I believe that" I said sarcastically.

"Sorry to interrupt, but can one of you show me where the history room is?" Said a male voice coming from behind me. "Sure its- woah" I said. "Erick you're staring" Zabdiel whispered.

"It's okay if you can't it's just I'm new here and you guys seemed like the nicest and most approachable people so I thought I'd ask you" He said. "Actually that's where we're heading and we'd be happy to walk with you, right Erick?" Said Zabdiel nudging my arm. "Ye- yeah of course" I said.

"I'm Zabdiel, that's Erick, and you are?" He said. "I'm Jax" He said. "Well Jax, it's nice to meet you" He said.

"Zabdiel he's HOT" I whispered. "I kind of figured that's what you thought when you froze and just stared at him" He whispered back. "I wasn't staring" I said. "Yes you were and there was just this awkward silence which is why I said something" He said. "Now stop whispering or he's going to know we're talking about him" He said.

Joel's POV

"I'm suprised" Said Chris.  "Because?" I said. "You went through the entire day without hurting Zabdiel, good for you" He said. "I didn't hurt him because I didn't care" I said. "Which is weird considering you seemed to like Erick more than any of your previous fuck buddies" Said Rich. "All good things must come to an end" I said.

"STOP" Said Chris standing in front of me. He seemed to be blocking me from seeing what was behind him.

"Chris what're you doing?" I asked. "Nothing I just think we should go the other way today" He said.

"DAMNNN Erick got another boyfriend?!" Said Rich. "What are you talking about?" I said pushing Chris out of my way.

"Who's that?" I asked.

They both stayed silent.

"No one wants to tell me? I'll just find out myself" I said walking up to Erick.

"RICHARD YOU IDIOT" Yelled Chris.

"Erick can I talk to you for a second?" I asked. "Now you want to talk me?" He said. "Yes, but not here. You know where" I said.

"But who's this?" I asked. "This is Jax" He said. "Nice to meet you" Said Jax holding out his hand. I completely ignored him and continued talking to Erick.

"But who is he?" I asked. "My friend?" he said. "And?" I said. "And he's new here, today's his first day" He said. "Why are you asking so many questions?" He asked. "I'll see you later" I said walking back to Richard and Chris.

"So?" Said Rich. "Some new kid" I said. "Ooouuu Joel's got some competition" Said Chris. "I've never had competition and I won't  now" I said. "So does that mean you and Erick are whatever you were again?" Asked Rich.

"That's for me to decide and for you to hear about later" I said. "Oh no, I know that mischievous voice. Joel don't hurt him" He said. "I'd never hurt him" I said. "You know what he means, don't do it" Said Chris.

"I don't know what you guys are talking about" I said. "Yeah right" Said Chris. "What about Zabdiel? You're not going to do anything to him after he kissed Erick?" Said Richard. "Richard you just don't know when to shut up, do you?" Said Chris.

"Oh I don't need to do anything, I just need to say something and he'll back off" I said. "Say what?" Asked Chris.

"It's just I don't think Erick knows how me and Zabdiel know each other and I don't think Zabdiel wants him to know" I said. "You wouldn't" Said Chris. "Oh c'mon Chris you know me better than that, of course I would" I said.

"And we're all still going to pretend that Joel doesn't actually like Erick but he's going through all this just for him?" Said Richard. "We both know Joel just likes playing with people" Laughed Chris.

"I'll see you guys later, I have to go home and wait for a certain someone to show up" I said. "I just hope for his sake he doesn't keep you waiting very long" Said Chris. "Poor Erick" Said Rich. "He's about to see the dangerous side of Joel" He said.

"Guys relax, I'm not going to do anything to him" I said.

"Or maybe I will, who knows" I said.
