Chapter 1

My name is Jack. I am 17 years old and I am a student of the High School in our town. I am a really sporty person. My friend Ky and I both are members of our schools basketball team. He is also part of the swim team, while I am an athlete. I like school. Yeah I really do. Not because of the academics and the learning, no because of the girls. Well not just the girls, because of the girl. Her name is Yuri and she’s from Japan. She moved here a while ago and is the prettiest girl I’ve ever seen. She and the other girls are always watching the boys at sports. I am always doing more than my best to impress her, when she is watching. I already fell in love with her the day I first saw her. I can’t help it, but I always try to get her attention. My friend Ky doesn’t like to talk about her. He doesn’t really talk about girls at all. Just the general stuff, but I always tell him about Yuri although he probably isn’t interested, well better for me. He is really good looking and if he was interested in her, I would not have a chance against him. He is really tall, has black hair and green eyes and he has muscles. Compared to him I don’t have a chance. Although I am tall as well, I do not have the muscles he has. My hair is a standard brown and my eyes too. It makes me kind of boring. That’s why I have to try so hard to get Yuri’s attention. But I will get my true love, I know it!

Chapter 2

Today is Monday and Ky got swim training after school. I wait for him, because we want to go into town afterwards. “Hey Jack, it’s the best you’ll wait over there. You can watch us”, Ky says with a grin on his face. “Haha, ya I’ll do that” I answer laughing. When Ky and his team has changed they’re coming out and I can’t help but looking at them. Most of them are average, but I notice that Ky is better looking than the others. Well, I think to myself, I really got a good looking friend there, I’d love to have a six pack like him. Already an hour later the guys are ready and Ky is coming for me still dripping. He stands in front of me and shakes his head. “Ah Ky! What was that for?” I try to stay serious and look mad at him, but he just smiles and I start laughing. “Well Jack you can never be actually mad at me” “No I really can’t.” After we got a present for my mother’s birthday we are getting some food. Ky bought my burger and now we’re eating silent on the bench and looking toward the sunset. The sunset just over the bridge is beautiful and I feel happy to be here. I almost forgot Ky sitting nexr to me, he said something I didn’t hear and now he leans toward me, careful he catches the ketchup from my t-Shirt. I can’t believe what I am seeing right now. He takes his finger with the ketchup up to his mouth and licks it. I am watching. He looks me in the eyes and I hold my breath until I finally look away. Wait, what’s that? Why is my heart pounding like that? This shouldn’t be. Stop it. Just eat and go home. “You know what Ky? I think I have to go then. It’s already pretty late, you know.” I stand up and feel a bit dizzy. I have to get away from here, I have to think. I feel like my legs are not willing to hold me anymore, but before I fall Ky catches me. “Are you alright?” He looks at me, his eyes wide and full of worry. This can’t be happening, leave me alone Ky, let go of me!  “Yes, yes. I am fine, I really have to go now.” I say and step back. Still feeling dizzy and stumbling I turn around and without looking back I leave. I run home and fall into my bed. Before I can think about what happened I already fell asleep.

Chapter 3

The next morning I wake up and feel like I am sick, I don’t know why. But then I remember the day before in the park. I can’t think properly. Like in trance I make myself a breakfast and go to school. Ky has a swimming competition today and I am glad he isn’t in school. Before I’ve noticed it, half of the day was over, and by the end of it I made up my mind. I came to think of it, that this isn’t anything I should worry about. Ky sometimes does weird things and yeah he is good looking, but I just didn’t drink enough that day that’s why I felt dizzy. Nothing to worry about though.

The following days were pretty normal. Although I couldn’t concentrate on the sports I convinced myself that this was just because of Yuri who was sitting next to the pitch. But sometimes my gaze also followed Ky and I couldn’t stop myself from thinking how sexy he is. You can see his muscles through the shirt because of his sweat.

“Hey Jack! What’s wrong? You’re okay?!” Ky asks. What? Did I really stare at him in public that I won’t even realise the ball coming towards me? “Oh ya I am fine, I feel a little bit dizzy I should take off for a while” So that I can watch you without anyone noticing. Moment, what am I thinking? He puts his hand on my back to support me and it feels like an electro shock going through my body. I never felt anything like that before. After the training Ky and I walk towards the school. “Oh Jack, I forgot my pencil case in the classroom. Wait I’ll get it.” “No problem, I’ll come with you.” When we enter the classroom the sun already goes down and it's coloured in orange from the sun. I lean against the wall while Ky searches for his pencil case. Triumphantly he holds it up and he got a huge smile on his face. “Got it, I..” his voice trails off. We both stand perfectly still. Why keeps my heart pounding like this? Ky comes over to me and leans in. He puts his arms around me and pushes himself against the wall. Our faces so close that my nose is almost touching his. I feel the tense between us and then he gently puts his lips on mine. I want him. I want him more than anything else. But I push him away. “Stop that! Who do you think you are?” I turn around and run away. I don’t stop until I reach the park in town. Exhausted I fall into the bench. It’s already dawn and I didn’t hear that Ky was following me. He stands in front of me. His eyes looking down on me, he’s anxious, I can tell. “Jack.. I.. I am sorry. I didn’t want to do that. I was just.. I don’t know.. I am sorry..” I don’t know what to do. What does all that mean? I love Yuri, don’t I? But I never felt like this before, not even for her. “You know you can’t just go off and kiss people. We are both guys, go and search for some girls” My voice sounds more harsh than I wanted it to be, but now I can’t take it back and his following words take my breath, I didn’t know that words could hurt so much. “Ya, maybe you’re right. Maybe I should be looking for someone else.” His voice is really quiet and soft, but I hear every word. “Ky you are my best friend and I’ve always admired you! But why did you have to do that?” I feel heartbroken. “You can’t just play with someone’s feelings! It’s all your fault, yours, yours, yours!” I can’t help it, but tears are coming up. Ky sees them and his eyes widen. “Jack I am sorry, I didn’t want that. I wanted to wait until you’re ready, until you are in love with me as well. I am so sorry” This is makes me even stop crying. He is in love with me?  And then I scream it: “But I am! You Idiot!” He looks puzzled for moment, and I start crying again. He comes closer and wipes my tears away. He takes my face into his hands and whispers: “I love you” and then he kisses me. Gentle at first, but he’s getting eager after a while. And I kiss him back. Standing there doing nothing, but kissing. Kissing without an end. I got my true love. Not the one I’ve expected, but this is where my heart belongs.

“I love you too, Ky”
