JAEDEN's P.O.V

Since the livestream's day, things have been weird between Jack and Finn.
The only ones that really talk are Eddie and Richie. They finish the scenes they're doing and never talk again
- They're being so professional about it- Sophia says, looking at me
- What?
- While they're filming, it looks like they still have so much chemistry. Just like the old times...
- The chemistry is still there, Sophs. And the OLD DAYS were just a week ago. You know what happened?
- Yeah. Don't you?
- Of course I do. Who told you?
- Jack. Who told you?
- Finn
- Oh, so you're his adviser.
- No. He just likes talking to me...
- He's a little shit
- What!?- I look at her, pretty confused- He's one of the best boys I have ever met
- He's messing with Jack
- Believe me. He's not
- You don't know shit
- Hey. Stop talking shit about Finn. You don't know him. They are my best friends; both of them; and you should let them fix this themselves.
- He's just...
- Hey... hush.
- Is that...?- She points at a boy walking to set
- Noah Schnapp!- I scream
Andy looks at me. I'm ruining the whole scene
- Sorry.- I whisper
- Take 2.
Finn walks out of scene
- Wait a sec.
He walks to Noah and hugs him.

FINN's P.O.V
- Noah? What are you doing here?
- I missed you, Finnster! How you've been?
- Fine.
The rest of the Losers Club get close to us and say hi to Noah
- I loved Stranger Things!- Jaeden says to him. He's kinda freaking out and it's pretty adorable
- Calm down, you creep!- I look at Jaeden and Noah punches me
- Leave him alone!- Noah says
- Hey. He's my friend. Let me bother him.
- Okay, guys. Let's film a few scenes and you can take the rest of the day for yourselves.- Andy walks to us and says hi to Noah.
- Seriously?- I ask him
- Of course. You deserve some days off.
- Thank you!

JACK's P.O.V
As I had already finished shooting, I go talk to Noah
- You're Jack. Right?
- You know me?
- Of course. Finn talks a lot about you
- He does?
- Of course he does.
- Oh...
- Why don't we go for a walk?- Noah gives me one of the Starbucks drink he brought for all of us and I nod.- So... how are things?
- To be honest, not very good.
- Yeah... I supposed.
- Why?
- Finn hasn't been very active lately and he just ignores us whenever we ask about you. What happened?
- We had a fight
- A fight? Why? You two are so cute
- People ship you two too, right?
- Yeah. So?
- It never bothered him?
- Not at all...
- Well... people shipping us bothers him a lot.
- The Fack shippers?
- Yes... I mean, It's just people uploading pictures. They're really sweet
- I know. I've seen a lot of pics...
- So I told him he should make up his mind before kissing me
- He kissed you?
- Yes.
- Wow. You really are something special...
- What do you mean?
- Finn is not the kind of guy who takes the first step. He's really shy with that kinda stuff.
- Are you serious?
- Yeah. So he really likes you... I'm sure.
- I don't know, Noah. I just feel so stupid. He acted so weird at the livestream. He was really upset
- Maybe he cares about you so much, he doesn't wanna lose you. Maybe he thinks you care about those Fack things.
- He's in denial. He lost me already.
- What?
- He's not talking to me
- Are YOU talking to him?
- Well... not exactly
- Then you shouldn't blame him! He has 50 percent of the fault, of course... but you are guilty too, Jack. You two should talk
- You think so?
- Of course...
- How long are you staying?
- I'm not sure yet. Why?
- You're really cool. It's nice seeing you around
- You're cool too. I was really happy for you and Finn
- Was he always...?
- Gay?
- Yeah
- Are you...?
- No. No. I'm not.
Noah just starts laughing
- You two are so weird. I love it.
Finn walks right to us and looks at us
- I'm done. Shall we?- He asks Noah
- Sure. Let's go, Jack
- I was thinking... we should spend some time on our own...
- Yeah. You should.- I fake a smile and leave.

Once I'm on the house, my phone starts ringing
- Hey.
- What the fuck are you doing?- It's my manager
- What do you mean?
- You're gay now?
- What? No!
- Then what's that picture going all around social media?
- Which picture?
- You and that Finn boy sleeping together?
- That's nothing! I'm not gay!
- Well... people is starting to think you are
- I know. So?
- So you're going to have a girlfriend
- What? No way. I don't like any girl
- Any girl? What about a boy?
- Yeah. I like Finn...
- So they're right. You two are going out?
- Not... yet.
- Well... you're not going to. I hired some random girl to be your girlfriend. You'll meet her as soon as IT wraps.
- Are you nuts? I'm not gonna have a random girl as my girlfriend.
- Social media is harsh, Jack. If you, a 13 year old boy say you're gay, everything is gonna start going wrong for you. And your career will soon be over.
- Why would it be over?
- Didn't you realize this days gay actors only do gay roles?
- So I'll do gay roles
- THERE ARE NO GAY ROLES FOR 13 YEAR OLDS! Besides, I'm a hundred percent sure if that boy knows he could lose his career, he would absolutely leave you.
- He can't leave me because we're not dating!
- I'm not gonna fight with you. Just remember what your parents said
- What did they say?
- You have to listen to me. If I quit this job, they won't get you another manager. They'll just end your career. So you go out with this girl, and stop doing those weird things with that kid, or you won't be able to act anymore. It's your choice.
I hang up and immediately start crying. I know I'll have to date this girl. I have no choice

FINN's P.O.V
I walk into the house to apologize with Jack and find him crying on the couch.
- Jack? Are you okay?
He looks at me and just nods. I sit next to him and just hug him
- Hey... is this my fault?
- No.
- What's wrong then?
- Nothing. I'm fine
- Jack...
- Just go. Noah is here. You should spend time with him
- He's okay. He makes friends really fast
He laughs a little.
I grab his hand and we just stay like that for a while
- I'm sorry- I say, after he stops crying
- Me too... I shouldn't have put you on that position.
- It's okay. You were right. I had to make up my mind. And so I did...
- You did?
- Yeah. I wanna be with you.
He looks at me. His eyes are still a bit puffy.
I just feel like I need to protect him. I don't know what happened but I love him and all I wanna do is be there for him whenever he needs me.
- You wanna be with me?- he asks
- Yeah. I love you
He smiles and kisses me
- I love you two, Bubba.
