Syber: I suppose you're all happy to see me finally update this. I will post updates in my profile about what I'm doing about my stories n such.

The following morning, Kyle left his room and entered the bathroom. He looked at himself in the mirror with a blank expression, replaying last nights events in his head.

'What should I do now?' Kyle thought to himself as he turned the faucet on, about to begin brushing his teeth. He made eye contact with the mirror again as he brushed his teeth. A thin flow of toothpaste foam flowed down the side of his mouth and dripped on the edges of the sink.

'Should I go and talk to Declan? Would that make the situation any better? What are his true intentions exactly...?' Kyle spat then gargled with mouth wash. 'I'll go see him...' Just as Kyle opened the door, he met with Josh who got startled and backed away. Josh's eyes looked frightened thinking Kyle would attack him again. Kyle tried not to make eye contact with Josh and swiftly moved out of the way and returned to his bedroom. To a convenient surprise, Kyle met with Declan who was just crawling through his bedroom window. "You need to stop coming through my window like that. What if it wasn't me in the room to greet you?"

"Sorry. I just had to see you." Declan said sounding urget. Kyle crossed his arms and slanted his posture. Declan approached Kyle, about to wrap his arms around the shorter teen until Kyle cut him off. "Don't touch me."

"...Kyle... I know... I messed up. Really bad."

Kyle shoved Declan violently. "Messed up? I surrendered myself to you!" He shoved Declan again. "You lied to me while you were off with Josh!" He shoved Declan against the wall with his hands firmly on the other teens shoulders. "How can you make up for that?" Tears ran down Declan's cheeks as he looked at Kyle.

"Kyle, I..."

Kyle himself on the verge of tears, punched Declan in the jaw. Anger burned his eyes and heartbreak bled in his tears. "I've done a lot of thinking. I cannot find words to express how sorry I am. I truly am sorry. I liked Josh, but I love you."

"How can I believe that? How can I believe anything you say anymore?"

Declan wrapped his arms around Kyle. "How can I prove myself to you Kyle? You're the one I want to be with..." Kyle broke away from Declan. "I need time to myself."

Declan looked down to the side. "I guess I should leave then." Declan left the same way he came in. Kyle wiped the tears from his face. He left his room and silently entered Josh's room. There he saw Josh blankly laying on his bed on his side with his ipod headphones in. He walked over to Josh and lightly nudged him. Josh turned and jumped when he saw it was Kyle.

"W-what is it?" Josh asked.

"I just wanted to say sorry for hitting you..."

Josh sighed in relief. "I thought you were going to hit me some more... I'm really sorry too..."

"Declan just came through my window a little while ago."

"Oh yeah... After what happened last night... I talked to him about it... I ended it with him. I'm sorry... I didn't mean to hurt you. I like him a lot too... But in a sense, I stole him from you. I'm sorry."

Kyle sat down beside Josh. "He told me I'm the one he wants to be with. That he loves me. I'm sorry to say this but after what happened with you and him, how can I believe any of it?" Josh sat up and moved next to Kyle. "I can't say that I blame you. And I can't force you to believe him... I'd probably feel the same way if the situation were reversed."

"Hm..." Kyle began as he looked down. Josh rubbed Kyle's shoulder.

'I wish I knew how to make this better again..' Josh thought to himself.

Lori knocked on Josh's door. "Hey, you. Amanda is having a house party at 8. You and Kyle should come."

Josh looked at Kyle. "How does she know you're here with me?" Josh asked. Kyle chuckled.

"She always seems to know everything." Kyle said.

"That and she could just be looking out for you. Declan told me how she scolded him when she found out what was going on."

"Oh... That's thoughtful of her."

"She may be a shrew, but shes a caring shrew." Josh said.

"HEY, I'M STILL STANDING OUT HERE YOU KNOW!" Lori yelled from the otherside of the door.

Syber: Shot but don't worry. It'll get better in the next chapter :D
