"Cam…" the Irish lad voice's low. He started to have the urge to tell Cameron everything right there right then. "Yeah, Damo?" "Um-m… never mind" Damian quickly looked away and changed his mind.
What is wrong with him… Cameron thought. "Oh, come on, Damo. Don't be such a coward! Just tell me okay"
Ouch. The word 'coward' hit Damian really hard. Cameron's word always easily affected him, whether it was good or bad. It made him sad now. And to think he was a coward.
"I do want to tell you, Cam, I really do. But I'm not sure I want to see how you react about…t-this" Damian felt his accent starting to get thicker. Which was odd since he had been practicing to hide it for the sake of Ryan Murphy and his precious Glee.
"JESUS, Damo! Just tell me already, okay?" Damian started to get on his nerves! He didn't mean to tell his best friend such a harsh word but it's out now. And it kind of bugging Cameron, a little bit. So he changed his tone. "I'll react the way I'm supposed to be, okay, Damian. So spill it?"
"O-okay…" Damian cleared his throat. Unsure what's going to happen. "I think I like someone…" then he stopped there because he didn't dare to spill more unnecessary information.
Cameron looked at Damian, waiting for something else, anything else, to come out from his best friend's mouth. Damian felt awkward under Cameron's judgmental gaze. He just wanted to sulk in his bed so bad. After a couple minutes of nerve-wrecking silence, the nerd finally spoke.
"That's it? Great for you, Damo! You said you had been numb for like forever, man! Congrats, Damo! I'm so happy for you!" Cameron sounded excited, though Damian didn't really know why. Damian sighed, "Yeah, right…" he said in barely a whisper, not really sure whether to be happy or not after what happened. Cameron noticed this though.
"Is something wrong?"
"No n-no of course there isn't. I'm just…happy. I guess" he shrugged. "I've committed everything I've buried deeply to you, Cam…" it's not everything though. He easily lied. Though he still wished it had worked because Cameron didn't seem to buy it.
"No you haven't, Damo." the nerd's demanding tone made Damian felt more guilty than he already had. "No, I have C―"
"I know you, Damo" Cameron cut the Irish's sentence. "people say we're boyfriend, which we're not, but they say that because they know we have a great chemistry. Which we actually do." Damian's eyes grew wide at the mention of 'boyfriend'. It made him feel self-centered somehow. "Just say it, okay?" now, Cameron sounded desperate.
It's now or never anyways…Damian thought. "Well you've known I like someone… though it's not the real problem." Cameron just shut his mouth and listened carefully for what was about to come. "He's…"
Did he just say he? I must've mistakenly heard him. Cameron thought
"I t-think I m-might like a guy, Cam, and― yeah…"
They both fell silence. Wasn't '2 best friends reuniting' supposed to be fun instead of uncomfortable and awkward?
It took almost 2 minutes for Cameron to register what just happened.
"Oh, God no. Please, Damo. Tell me you're kidding"
