pretending to be someone you're not

brian

"just calm down brian! you need to stay calm, do you really need to pay attention to what they're saying?"

"i don't want to fucking calm down! joe, you can't control me when i get like this! i'm so angered right now! i can't do this joe." i yelled at the man in front of me, who's hands where in front his chest, backing away from me. murr was on the couch, watching the both of argue and being surprised as he watched every little movement.

"dude; get it over it! sal isn't in love with you, so what? there are many more fish in the sea." murr murmured as he got up and walked to the kitchen. i scoffed and crossed my arms in front of my chest, trying to calm myself down from my anger.

"do you really gotten listen to murr? he's a douchebag anyways, you don't need that. you need to listen to what i'm saying. he is fucking in love with you, brian. he's always talking about you and how brian is so great and oh i wish brian was my boyfriend, or i wish brian would just kiss me on the lips." joe mumbled.

"wait, what. he actually said that?" i asked, pausing my actions. joe looked up from the floor, nodding his head. i took off my hat and scratched my hair, trying to process what he said. i picked up the phone and dialed sal's number.

"hello? brian, are you okay?" sal's soft voice was heard over the phone. i gulped and looked at joe, his hands were stuffed in his pockets, who later walked to the kitchen where murr was drinking his soda.

"yeah, i just need you to come over." i mumbled. sal hung up and was on his way over here. murr walked into the living room with the coke in his hand.

"murr, you douchebag. why would you say that? maybe he was in love with me and we could have never knew." i yelled at him.

"well its the honest truth. maybe he isn't exactly your type, brian." murr spat back at me.

"me pretending to be someone i'm not is fucking miserable murr! i want to tell sal how much i fucking in love with him i am. i tell myself i'm okay and pretending like everything's normal, which in reality it fucking just isn't." i said. i turned around and saw sal, who watched me in shock.

"brian, i never knew you felt like that about me." he mumbled.

"look i'm sorry, i didn't know you were there, i just said it and i'm sorry if it made you awkward-" sal had leant forward and grabbed me by my face and pressed my lips against his, releasing this sudden burst of affection.

he pulled away and breathed out,

"i want to show you how much i love you too, brian."
