I'm trying to make this chapter pretty long.

Johns P.O.V
"Wait, John?" I heard the voice from behind me. It sent a chill down my spine, I had heard that same voice come from behind me before, but where had I heard it? And then it hit me!

I didn't even put the chair down when I whipped around. "Hey Alexander!" I said with a big smile on my face. I was so happy to see him, and i couldn't figure out why. I mean I know I had a crush on him but why was I so happy? I saw his head sticking out from the top of his computer. "What are you doing here?" He asked me rubbing his neck, it took me only a few seconds to answer because I didn't want to have a moment of awkward silence, at least... Not again. "I'm just meeting a friend, their not here ye-" Just then someone swung their arm around my shoulder from behind me making me drop the chair. "Bonjour mon ami! I see you have found yourself a little friend!" Lafayette joked "Jeez! You scared me Laf!" I said taking his arm off my shoulder. "Alexander, this is Lafayette, we're best friends. And Lafayette, this is Alexander, he just moved into the apartment across from me." I said motioning for them to shake hands. After that, Lafayette quickly pulled me aside. "You live across from this cutie?" He whispered. I blushed and looked at Alexander, he was looking at me, but he looked away when our eyes met. "Laf!" I whisper screamed. And tilted my head towards Alex. Lafayette gave me a look of confusion then slowly turned to Alex who was now looking at the floor and blushing bright red. "Ooohhhhhh, someone's got a crush!" He said quietly "Wha-no he doesn't" I say blushing. Alexander can't like me, he's straight! "It's obvious J!" Lafayette says a little louder. Alexander's back to looking at us.
"Lafayette, I guarantee you that he is as straight as a ramp." (If ya don't count bible camp. I'm not sorry) I say taking Lafayette a little farther away from Alex. "Whatever you say pretty boy!" Lafayette said smirking, he patted my shoulder and walked back over to our table, and grab the chair. I glanced at Alexander and he had gone back to typing on his computer. I sat down at my table with Lafayette, we started talking for about half an hour until I saw Alex start packing up. Then he quickly wrote something down on a napkin. He walked over to me, handed me the napkin, and said "Text me." He said smiling and shrugged a little bit. I nodded my head at him, looked down and saw a phone number, I waited until he was gone to LITERALLY DIE! "Told ya!" Lafayette said leaning back in his chair "What?" I said putting the napkin in my pocket. He looked at me like I had just told him I was an alien. "He has a crush on you!" He said shaking my shoulders. My smile fading, yet I was still blushing. "Laf I already told you, he's straight!" I said biting my nails. "How do you know for sure?" Lafayette raised his eyebrows at me. "Because..... Even if he wasn't straight, why would he like me?" Lafayette rolled his eyes tipping his chair. "Laurens, we both know you're extremely attractive!" Lafayette took my hands. I pouted and took my hands back. "I'm gonna go Laf, I need to lie down." I said moving to the door. "Ok, see you later John!" Lafayette said as I was going out the door.

Alex's P.O.V
Was it right to have given him my number? What were they whispering about, was it me? Ugh, he probably thinks I'm a creep. What if he threw away the napkin?! All these thoughts made my brain hurt. "Ugh, I don't know which direction this day is going in."  About 2 minutes later I finally get home. I was laying on my bed when I heard footsteps coming from outside. I needed to see if it was John. I looked out my peep whole and there he was, I couldn't see his face but I could just imagine how handsome he looked right now. I sat back on my bed, thinking. What's happening to me? All I can think about is John. I'm not gay, but I am bi. Is he gay? Nah, he's probably straight. Even if he wasn't straight, why would he like me? "I need to wright to write something down" I said limply, walking over to my desk. About an hour later I got a call. Ugh do I have to get up? But what if it's important. I sighed then got up, it was an unknown caller. "Should I answer?" Yeah I probably should, just in case it is important "Hello?" I said cautiously. "Oh, hey! Is this Alex?" I heard a familiar voice say. And then I remembered. Oh shoot this is John! "Uhh, hello?" He said. "Yeah this is Alex!" I said jumping onto my bed. "Great! It's John btw, just wanted to make sure I had the right number" I blushed, he sounded so perfect. "Yeah, I forgot I gave you my number. WELL NO-I didn't FORGET about you obviously!" Wow nice one Alex. "Hehe don't worry, I didn't forget about you either!" Damn it Laurens, I was already red enough! I giggled at my own thought. That made it silent, AGAIN BTW. What is up with all the silence?! "So.. I guess I'll talk to you later?" I said trying to make things less awkward. "Yeah! I guess so." He said it the exact same way as I did. I waited a few seconds, alright that's it! "Bye John!" I said quickly, before he could say bye, I hung up. I Hung Up. I HUNG UP! "What the hell was that?!" I asked myself. I just hung up on the one person I had liked in A long time. "I should text him!" I quickly put him in my contacts

John's P.O.V
Alex... I like that better than Alexander. I'm glad I know that I can trust him, and be his friend. I know some people find me attractive, but most attractive people don't. I didn't tell Lafayette that I was gay until about 2 years ago. That's when he told me he was pan. Should I tell Lafayette about our talk? I probably shouldn't, he would laugh and call me a gay turtle.

Was that long? Probably not. You tell me. Anyway I'm gonna try to be posting every day. Have a good one!
