I looked between the three of them. I knew they wanted an answer. "Promise not to get mad at me, and that, no matter what, we're still friends?" I asked. They nodded, conferming their promise. "...I don't like any of you that way." I answered.

"What?!" they all three exploded.

"I just don't." I shrugged. "I never said that I did. Now, I did say that I liked the plushies that I found at the store that were made to look like you, and that you guys would think that me buying them would be kinda stalkerish, but I'm happy with us just being friends."

The three men in front of me exchanged wide eyed glances as I just shrugged and sipped from my water.
