Zach and I were bestfriends... But we met two girls not long ago.. and today we're going on a double date.. "The girls will be here any minute now" I say as I walk into Zachs room.. Were going to a big fancy dinner and we have to wear suits... Zach looks at ms and throws his hands to his side grunting as his tie falls undone... "Let me help you" I say softly and Zach nodds as I walk torwards him grabbing both sides of the tie and tying it with no struggle in the world... "Thanks" Zach whispers and I look down at the slightly shorter boy.. Are eyes meet and it was like the world stopped... "Are you ok" I ask looking into Zachs eyes.. he seemed stressed... "I dont know... I just guess that.. I dont know" he said his eyes starting to water... instead of saying something I wrap him in a hug... "Boys were hear" I hear Megan.. My date yells from down stairs.. Zach looks at me and takes a big breath before we walk down stairs and see Megan and Maddy.. Zachs date standing in the living room...

We both hug our dates and then head out to the car, Megan and I in the front and Zach and Maddy in the back... Megan was talking but I barley listened... I was worried about Zach... I just wanted to hold him and make him feel better... When we pulled up to the restaurant I walked over and opened Megan's door and Zach opened Maddys... We walked in and sat a a table.. Me by megan and Zach acrossed from me by Maddy.... We talked and laughed and Megan slid her hand on my knee half way through and I didnt do anything but sit there and pretend it didnt happen.. After our food got there I saw maddy grab Zachs hand under the table and he got upset.... he looked like he was gonna cry... "I'll be back" he says softly heading torwards the bathroom.... Maddy and Megan are two beautiful wonderful girls but theres just something about me that makes me want to go and hold Zach and just be friends with the girls... After a few minutes I start to get worried about Zach ... "I'm gonna go check on him" I say and they nod... I walk to the bathroom and hear soft sobs followed by gagging and then throwing up come from the stall at the end of the bathroom... I lightly push the door open reavealing Zach kneeing over the toilet balling his eyes out.. I kneel down beside him and put my hand on his back... He glances up at me and my heart brakes... His red puffy eyes... His res cheeks... His tears stained on them... I touch his cheek with my thumb as nt he melts... Crying so loud.. I pull him into my chest and hold him tight... I let him cry.. I rub his back and try to calm him down.. "Your ok buddy... calm down... I'm here" I whisper.. and He finnaly calms down enough... "What's wrong Zach" I whisper and he pulls his head up.. "I.." He says but I cut him off... "Olease dont say I dont know" i say... "Daniel... I hate this... I hate living like this... I hate being like this... I hate feeling like this" he says and another tears escapes his eye... "What do you mean Zach" I say softly... "I just dont feel right..." He says and then it hits me.... the way he looks at guys when were out or the way he talks about guys he sees on Instagram... "Zach... if you mean you dont feel right because you dont look at girls the way some other guys do then you shouldn't feel like wrong... you shouldn't hate that you dont like girls... You shouldn't hide from that... if that's who you are then let that be who you are" I say and he just sits there staring at his hands... I grab one of them and pull his chin up to look at me... "I'm scared" he whispers ever so lightly... "Dont be" I say... "I cant go back out there" he says and I nod.. "I'll tell them you got sick and that we're gonna have to end the night early" I say and he nods... I get it from the bathroom floor then help him up.. "Get cleaned up and then meet us out there" I say and he nods.... I walk out of the bathroom brushing off my suit and fixing my hair.. "Everything ok" Megan says and Maddy looks at me confused.. "Yah... Zach got sick and hes ready to go home" I say and they nod.. "Ok that's ok let's go" Maddy says and I put for our check and we wait by the door for Zach... He finnaly comes out and he looks so upset... We get in the car but this time the girls let Zach sit up front with me.. We arrive at there place and we all hop out.. I pull Megan to the side.. "I'm sorry about tonight" I say and she shakes her head.. "Listen Daniel.. I really like you.. but I see the way you look at Zach.. I really would like to be your friend but I dont want to keep you from being happy" she says and I nod hugging her... "Thank you megs" I say and she smiles...
*zachs pov*
I pull Maddy off to the side while Daniel's talking to Megan.. "Im" I say but she cuts me off.. "Dont say it... Zach... I dont want you to do something that doesnt make you happy... Your a really sweet guy... But I just want you to be happy.. and if that puts me in the friends zone I'm fine with it..." She says and I wrap her in my arms... and then we walk over to meg and Daniel...
*Daniel's pov*
On our way home it starts raining and Zach lays his head against the window and watches at the rain hits it... When we get home we walk inside and Zach goes straight upstairs... I follow him and when I get there hes leaning up against he wall hitting it with his fist.. Tears running down his cheeks.. I grab his wrist and pull him away from the wall.. he trys to pull away from me but I dont let him... I pull him close to me and hug him... he trys to pull away... he trys to run... "LET ME GO... LET ME GO... STOP TRYING TO MLE ME THINK ITS OK... STOP IT" He screams trying to get away... I do what I can in that moment... I push my lips on his... He stops moving... he stops yelling... he just melts in my arms... I feel his hot tears on my face.. our lips move in synch and when we pull away he lays his head in my chest... I sit his down on the bed and kneel on front over him... "I know your hurting Zach... I know you think what your feeling is wrong but its not... it's totally normal... And I want you to know that I'm here for you.... I want you to know that I don't want you hurting by yourself... I want to help you get through this.... I know you scared Zach.... I know your terrified but you know have to be... you dont have to be scared cause I'm here for you... I here to tell you that your gonna get through this... and I'm gonna be here every step of the way..." I say and he just stares at me... "Daniel" he whispers... "Yah Zach" I say... "Can you just hug me for a few minutes" he says tears falling from his eyes.. I sit beside him and hold him tight letting him cry.... Letting him feel safe.. After a few minutes he looks up at me... "Thamk you... thank you for being here for me even when I'm upset and crying and even when I try to push you away... thank you for making me feel better.. Thank you so much" he says softly and I kiss the top of his head letting my forehead rest there.. "Always Zach.. I'll always be here for you Zach.. no matter what... no matter what it is or what I'm doing I'm always gonna be here for you.. I'm alway gonna be here whether you need to cry... to rant... to yell.. to scream... to laugh... to get out.. or whether you just need a hug... I'm alway gonna be here " I say and he lightly smiles.. "Come on... let's get you changed" I say and he nods.. I grab a pair of sweat pants and a t-shirt and hand it to him and he walks to the bathroom... I quickly run and get changed throwing on sweatpants, a tee shirt and a sweat shirt.. I grab a extra sweatshirt before walking back into Zachs room right before he walks out of the bathroom... "I need a sweatshirts" he says going to closet but I stop him and hand him my blue seavey sweatshirt... He smiles before pulling it over his head.. It hangs past his waist and the sleeves hang over his hands.. I smile at how cute he looks in it... I put my hands over his waist and he puts his head on my shoulder.. "You need to get some sleep" I whisper and he nods... I pull back his blankets and he climbs in... I look at his beautiful face before kissing him one last time... "night zachy" I whisper and go to walk out but his small sweet voice stops me... "stay" he whispers and I turn around.. I walk over to him and climb beside him wrapping him in my arms.. "I need you right now" he whispers...
"And I'm here"
