Author's Notes: Hi, and welcome back. Just to refresh your memory, Sky and Bridge had a one-night stand and they haven't made a choice whether or not to be lovers. Alright, caught up? Good. Let's go on with the story.

Chapter 3: I Love Him

Bridge was sitting in the common room by himself while thinking about the two weeks Sky and he had been "together." Bridge sighed as leaned back on the couch, trying to figure out why he couldn't tell Sky how he felt. Whenever they got "together," a look in his eyes told him to be quiet and enjoy the ride. Bridge placed his hands over his eyes and lent forward.

"Why can't I tell you how I feel when I'm with you?" he asked the empty room. Next thing he knew, he felt a tear trying to come through his eyes, but he fought the feeling back, knowing he couldn't feel weak right now.

"Bridge, is everything alright?" a voice asked from the doorway.

Bridge turned toward the door, praying it wasn't Sky. Z was currently standing there with her arms crossed, looking at Bridge with a worried look.

"Hi, Z. Everything is alright; nothing to worry about," Bridge lied, trying to avoid the subject that was bouncing painfully in his head.

Z walked from the doorway and stood behind the couch. "Bridge, didn't you know you're a bad liar?" she said, and jumped over the couch. Bridge looked at her for a moment. Damn, she could read him like a book, too.

"Alright. There is one thing bugging me," he confessed. Fortunately, Z already understood what was going through her friend's head.

"It's Sky, isn't?" she asked, already knowing the answer. Bridge felt the tears come out.

"DAMN IT!" he shouted while covering his eyes. Z leaned over and put an arm around his shoulder.

They stayed like that for a minute until Bridge said out of nowhere, "I love him, I love him, damn it. I want to be with him and I can't tell him because I want to make him happy and I don't want to lose him, Z; I don't."

Z placed Bridge's head her shoulder. "Don't worry, Bridge, it will all work out. You and Sky will live happily ever after together," she said while stroking his hair. Bridge gave a small smile and closed his eyes. Z was right; Sky and he were going to be together.

Meanwhile, outside the common room, Sky was listening to the talk between Z and Bridge while leaning against a wall in the hallway. He never knew Bridge felt this way for him.

"How could I be so dumb?" Sky whispered as hit himself on the head softly with his right hand.

Sky moved away from the wall and walked down the rest of the hallway. As he chewed on the information that he obtained from the talk he overheard, Sky felt guilt boiling in his stomach. All he had really wanted from Bridge was a "fun time together," but Bridge apparently wanted something more. Sky then realized something that he hadn't realized until now.

"I love you, too, Bridge," Sky said to himself as he walked past their room. Suddenly, he stopped dead in his tracks as an idea popped into his head. "I have a idea on how to show Bridge I care for him!" He then he ran down the hallway to get his plan into action.

A short chapter, I know, but I think I made my point. Chapter 4, which will be coming out soon, is going to be the last chapter.
