ON WITH THE STORY!
You say hello
Inside I'm screaming I love you
"Hey Freddy!" Zack said with a smile as they met up at the mall where the band always hung out on Fridays. Freddy's heart did a huge flip-flop. No one knew it yet, but Freddy wasn't exactly the straightest guy in the world. He had had a major crush on Zack since the 7th grade. But he couldn't tell anyone. No, no, that would ruin his image, never mind his reputation.
"Hey Zack," Freddy replied, staring into the brunette's deep, chocolate-brown eyes.
You say good night
In my mind I'm sleeping next to you
It was a few hours later, and Zack had just dropped Freddy off at his house in his brand-new Jaguar, which his dad had bought him for his birthday.
"Good night, Freddy," Zack said, waving out the window.
"See ya, man," Freddy waved back. No one knew that in his mind, he was going with Zack, back to his house. No one knew how much Freddy hated it when Zack left. No one knew how much Freddy wanted to sleep next to Zack every night of his fucking life.
You drive away
From our car crash of a heart
And I don't know
After Zack drove off, Freddy entered his house. He went up to his enormous bedroom, searched through his CD collection, and pulled it out. "It" was the mix tape Zack had given Freddy for his sixteenth birthday.
But you gave me the best mix tape I have
Even all the bad songs ain't so badIt was the best present Freddy had ever gotten. It was the best mix tape he owned. He listened to it almost every day. It had his favorite bands on it, like Metallica, but it also had Zack's kind of songs on it, like the Beatles. Even though Freddy was more of a punk rocker and Zack was more classic rock, he still cherished those songs.
I just with there was so much more than that
About me and you
If there was one thing that sucked about the mix tape, it was that Freddy wished that there were more than that between him and Zack. He wished there was more than just a way-cool mix tape. He wanted Zack's love, like the love he had felt for Zack since the 7th grade.
You talk to him
And it burns me like the sun
Any time Zack talked to another guy, Freddy got insanely jealous. He didn't even know if Zack swung his way, but there was a chance. Wasn't there? Wasn't there the slightest chance that Zack just might feel the same way as he did?
You talk to her
You say you feel like she's the one
In fact, Freddy got insanely jealous when Zack talked to girls too. He was currently dating some groupie slut. No, not Michelle or Eleni, a different groupie they had picked up along the way. Freddy knew that Zack thought she was the one. Okay, so he didn't know for a fact, but he was pretty sure. But then again, Zack didn't always look his happiest with her.
I talk to me
But you can't hear the pain I feel
You don't know
Zack would never know how much it hurt Freddy to see him with someone else. He couldn't. He would think Freddy were an idiot for liking him 'that way' and then he would lose his best friend in the whole fucking world. And if he lost Zack, there would be no reason to live.
Cuz you gave me the best mix tape I have
Even all the sad songs ain't so sad
I only wish there was so much more than that
About me and you
Freddy frusteratedly threw a book across the room. He couldn't take it anymore. He needed to tell Zack how he felt. Sure, he might lose Zack forever, but what if Zack felt the same? Wasn't he losing more by not telling Zack? He grabbed his car keys, scribbled a note for his parents, and jumped into his car.
Don't turn around
And say bye
It crushes my head
When you call me your friend
And I'm not the same person
From back in the day
Back of the class
That you thought was gay
No I can't find the words
Cuz I lost them the minute
They fell out my mouth
Yeah it's love and I'm in it
Freddy had to face the facts. He was in love with Zack, and he didn't know how to tell him. That proposed a problem, as at the moment, Freddy was driving to Zack's house, and had no excuse as to why he was going there. No excuse other than that he loved him. And he didn't know how that would swing with Zack. But he had to do it. He had to.
So give me your lips
Just let me kiss them
Let's get messed up
And listen to
Freddy pulled into Zack's driveway and turned off the ignition. He jumped out of the car and as he was about to ring the doorbell, Zack opened the door, yawning.
"Fred, man, it's almost midnight. What are you doing here?" Zack asked. Freddy took a deep breath and went for it. Himself, Freddy Jones, had just kissed Zachary Mooneyham, the man of his dreams since the 7th grade. The amazing part? Zack kissed back.
Cuz you gave me the best mix tape I have
Even all the bad songs ain't so bad
I just wish there was so much more than that
About me and you
Freddy pulled away.
"Um, Zack Attack?" he started.
"Yeah Spazzy?" Zack replied.
"I think I love you," Freddy said quietly.
"You know what, Freddy? I think I love you too."
