Black flames and Purple Hearts

Thirteen

                              Prepare to be shook

Anthony's Pov: "oh um" I pause looking to Noen hoping he'd being willing to explain the two marks to them like he did to me.

"I explained everything earlier" he explains emphasizing everything

"Um yeah okay then I don't see why not" I say

I stand up and move to be where everyone can see me more easily

"I gotta take my shirt off just so you know" I tell them

"Everyone here has seen you butt ass naked chop chop" Bryce says

"Okay okay" I laugh

I move to pull my shirt and hoodie over my head at the same time

Bryce wolf whistles

I get my shirt and hoodie up to where you can see my marks and the room is silently suddenly my chest burns.

My hoodie gets stuck when I try to pull it all the way off because I had tied the draw strings too tight but it only takes a few seconds to pull it off.

"Sooo" I say when I notice no one is looking at me but rather looking at the table where Griffin and Jaden Sit

They are staring at eachother

"Am I missing something" I ask confused I thought everyone wanted to see my mark I thought everyone would be surprised I had two marks instead no one is even looking at me

"Anthony" Noen starts but then Jaden looks up at me and holds out his wrist

The the flames on his wrist glow faintly that's when I remember the burning on my chest and look down at myself. But I thought Noen said but soulmates had to see my marks at the same time for this to happen.

I look up confused again only to lock eyes with Griffin who holds his wrist out to me slowly the flames match Jaden's perfectly glowing softly.

"Oh..." I whisper in shock before the world goes black around me.

Jaden's Pov: "shit Anthony!" I yell as I watch Anthony collapse to the floor.

Tayler was closest to him and is first to his side but me and Griffin Quickly follow.

I gently stroke his cheek as Griffin gives him a once over opening Anthony's eyes shining his phone light on them check for a pulse and his breathing cause he's studying to be a nurse.

"Think he just fainted" Griffin says

"Help me get him in the couch" He says and Me and Tayler help him lift Anthony into his arms so he can be carried to the couch it's a bit difficult with Anthony being completely limp but we manage.

"If he's out for more than five minutes we'll probably have to take him to the hospital cause that's not normal" Griffin sighs pushing Anthony's hair out of his face

"I think I'd faint to in this situation in fact I might" Payton says dramatically

Josh elbows him in the side and Payton releases a little whine. I sit on the couch lifting Anthony's head to rest in my lap. I pet his hair gently and after about a minute his eyelids twitch before his eyes slowly blink open.

He looks up at me confused for a moment before his eyes widen and he sits up quickly.

He looks between me and Griffin slowly I can feel every else's eyes on us I have no idea what I'm supposed to do or say in this situation

"Someone say something" Payton whisper yells
Josh once again elbows him

"Um well" I try but just look at Griffin and Anthony desperate for them to say something because I got nothing

"Let's just make it simple" Tayler sighs

"Are y'all even gay?" He asks us

"I mean I've never been into guys" I tell them

"I've only been with girls" Griffin says

I look over at Anthony to find him twiddling his thumbs he glances up at us and opens his mouth but words don't come out

God I'm stupid

"Oh Anthony" I whisper

"No no I'm not it's not" he stammers out wide eyed but I fix him with a look and he falls silent

"I'm just not sure is all" he mumbles

"Well you know I'm not really one to go against Mother Nature" Griffin says causing Anthony to shrink in on himself

"So if we're supposed to be soulmates I guess that's what we'll be" Griffin finishes Anthony immediately perks up looking at him with wide eyes Griffin smiles at him before turning to me.

"I'm not really sure I'm attracted to men but I'm sure we can make this work" I say to them with a soft smile

At that Anthony lights up a blinding smile on his face he beems.

"See not so hard now it's late I declare it bed time!" Tayler says

Anthony's Pov: Everyone starts to make their way up stairs Jaden and Griffin make their way to the stair case but stop when they realize I'm not following them

"Are you sure about this" I ask timidly

Griffin walks over to me me pulling me off the couch to stand in front of him. He takes a deep breath places his hand on my cheek

"Close your eyes" he whispers

I let my eyes flicker shut I feel Griffins breath ghost over my lips before his lips press against mine it's a firm kiss but his lips are soft and plump his stubble scrapes against my chin.

But the kiss is quick and he pulls away. I let my eyes flutter open and he smiles at me.

"Not bad" he chuckles before tugging me towards the stairs with him

Jaden raises his eyebrow at him as we pass his moving up the stairs

Griffin turns to look back at him

"Want a kiss too" he jokes making a kissy face at him

"Ha I'll pass" he says but he smiles before following us up the stairs to our room

I'm so ready to hit the hay
