Surprise!

Josh

I sit down on the couch and sigh, mentally preparing for this QnA.

"They say they're on their way. Are you ready to record? "

"Am I ever?"

I smirk a bit, even though it's not clever in any way. I hate doing QnA's with Vik because of how sexual every question seems to be. It makes Vik so uncomfortable and I want to protect him. It's almost like a primal instinct to protect him.

"Are you okay? We can talk--"

"Oi you lot! Do we have the questions ready?"

I silently groan but chuckle and shake my head. Ethan always cucks me but at least it's amusing.

"Yeah. Kon and Randolph picked out questions for us. Draw from the hat and you have to answer the question honestly. Did Tobi get back to you, Vik?"

"Yeah, actually. Just now. He says he's on his way and that he's got a surprise for Josh."

I furrowed my brow in confusion.

"What on Earth could he have for me?"

Ethan and Vik shrug. Right on cue, Tobi and Simon walk in with Nandos.

"We're ready when you guys are."

I curtly nod, looking them over. Simon was limping slightly and Tobi looks very self-conscious. Vik slowly nods, eyeing Tobi and Simon weirdly.

This is going to be super awkward.

I quickly do the intro.

"Alright. Randolph and Kon have picked out some questions and I've been told some dares/challenges. Simon, do you want to pick the first one?"

"Yeah."

He picks one out and begins laughing.

"Who's most likely to have a daddy kink?"

I chuckle and look at all of them. That's such an unfair question.

"Josh."

"Josh."

"Simon."

"Vik."

"What? Why me?"

"Simon, you always call Josh daddy."

"That doesn't mean I have a daddy kink."

The guys argue back and forth for a bit before they remember that I said Vik.

"Oi! Why'd you say Vik?"

"Think about it. Vik is so submissive and acts like a little kid constantly. He would totally be a little."

"It worries me that you know the terminology but fair point. Vik, what do you think?"

Vik visibly tenses, causing me to gently rub his back and chuckle.

"U-Um...I don't know."

"You'd 100% be into calling someone daddy."

"N-next question!"

He grabs into the hat.

"Who's JJ's girlfriend?"

"Nonexistent. Next question."

Simon looked mildly upset about answering that question.

I wonder if they really are dating. They've always been beyond close.

"Okay...Is Emon real?"

Simon laughs and wraps his arm around Ethan.

"It's always been real."

Ethan gently pushes Simon off him, laughing.

"No. It's not real. I have Emily and Simon has Talia."

Simon fakes being sad.

"B-but babe--"

Everyone laughs. We bant for a bit before we move on and answer more of the fans' burning questions.

~time skip to the end of the video~

I watch Simon do the outro, holding Vik's hand in order to calm him down. He gets so anxious whenever we talk about sex and that was most of the QnA.

I feel a gently hand rest on my shoulder, causing me to look up to see Tobi. I smile and stand up.

"I need to do this in private. Will you come with me?"

I nod and follow him up to my room. I look back at him, confused.

"What's up?"

I suddenly feel his lips on mine. I feel my eyes widen, shock making me freeze entirely. He ends it quickly and looks down.

"I've just...I needed to tell you that I want to be your boyfriend."

"T-Tobi...I'm sorry. I-I don't feel the same. Have you always felt this way?"

"Yeah...That's why I never hang out for very long..I'm sorry.."

"Hey, it's okay. We're cool still. Your secret is safe with me."

I bring him into a bear hug and let him cry. I whisper gentle, comforting words to him and rub his back.

"It'll be okay...No one will know.."

"Th-Thank you...It was stupid to keep this from you for so long but I was scared...I don't want to lose you.."

"You won't lose me. You know I care about you and I won't ever let go of our friendship."

"Thank you...You're the best friend I could've ever wished for.."

I smile and rock him back and forth until he stops crying and pulls away.

"I can cover for you if you want to leave. Just be safe, okay?"

He nods.

"Thank you so much.."

With that, we part ways and I walk back to the boys.

"Tobi had to leave but told me to say goodbye to you guys."

They all nod, understanding.

"What was the surprise?"

"Don't worry about it."

"You guys are awfully secretive sometimes."

I nod, thinking back to what happened.

What would've happened if I didn't have feelings for Vik?
