Warning: contains a very angry Gideon

"Why the hell didn't you tell me!" Gideon yelled, looking hurt and angry at the same time.

"Coz we didn't know how you would react, we thought you would be mad at us, and... you know... not like us any more"

"Did you really think I would react that badly?" Gideon's voice was now dangerously quiet.

"Yes we did, besides you know what Luke's like. He's all shy and doesn't like stirring up trouble"

"So your saying my own brother doesn't trust me?"

"I don't know, you'll have to ask him. But what I'm saying is that neither of us wanted to tell you, so don't you dare try to take it out on Luke."

"Take what out? It's nice to know my best mate trusts me Dax" Gid said sarcastically

"I do trust you Gideon. I just didn't want to tell you. Look it's not just you we didn't want to know. It's everyone else as well"

"You could've at least told me"

"No because you would've let it slip"

"No I wouldn't"

"Yes you would"

"Dax you and Luke are supposed to trust me. I'm really hurt that you didn't tell me. Did you think I would be homophobic?" Gideon did indeed sound hurt.

"Actually we weren't sure. And we do trust you Gid"

"You've known me long enough to know that I don't have a problem with gay people. No, what I don't like is being betrayed. And you and Luke betrayed me big time"

"No we didn't. Gid just coz we didn't want to tell you it doesn't mean we don't trust you"

"Well what does it mean then?" the angry blonde demanded.

"It means that... that... um... that we..." Dax trailed off looking rather sheepish.

"Exactly" the other boy exclaimed wryly.

"Look all it means is we didn't trust you with this particular thing okay?"

"No Dax, it's not okay."

"what do you mean Gid?"

"What I mean is I'm sick and tired of being called your best mate when I'm obviously not. If I was you would trust me properly."

"Come on Gid, I hate it when we fight. I'm sorry okay? Can we just be friends again?"

"Sorry! You're sorry, what an effing understatement!"

Only he didn't say 'effing'.

"Don't swear at me. Besides I don't why you're so upset. You know about me and Luke now don't you?"

"Obviously, how come you decided to tell everyone now?" Gideon still sounded really angry so Dax thought it would be best to try and calm him down.

"Because we're in love with each other, and we really know that we would like to spend the rest of our lives together" he said sincerely. This statement had a reverse effect to what he had intended. It seemed to make Gideon even more angry.

"Dax you're both only thirteen years old, how the hell can you know if you want to spend the rest of your lives together? You know I think there's something weird going on. Did you force him into this or something?"

"What? What are you on about? Gideon I LOVE HIM. I would never hurt him or upset him or anything"

"Yeah course not Dax, I knew he wasn't gay..."

Dax leapt across the room and decked Gideon with a powerful punch to the jaw.

"I love him whether you like it or not Gideon! And he loves me back! Just you can't deal with it doesn't mean you can go around making false accusations. Gideon had now sat up rubbing his jaw and looking slightly dazed. There was tears running down his face.

"Screw you Dax Jones. I can't believe I ever accepted a git like you." Gideon scrambled to his feet and ran out of the room sobbing. Dax just stood motionless and wondered what he had just done. Suddenly he realised that Luke had come into the room and hugged him from behind. Gently shaking Luke off of him, Dax too fled from the room.

Argh that was so hard to write, I hate it when those two fall out.
Feel free to review. *wink wink* *elbow elbow*
