ok, i'll continue chapter 3 but it'll be in the later chapters. anyway, this is a combination of 2 chapters. i realised that the flashback can be a chapter by itself. and sorry if the title is crappy because i can't come up with titles.
Nick looked at his watch, getting more anxious by the second. It was 7.15pm and Jeff was still not here. Nick and Jeff had just gotten together and today was their first date. Nick smiled, suddenly remembering the day which Nick had decided to confront Jeff about his feelings towards his best friend of eleven years.
Nick was reading The Hunger Games on his bed when the door opens suddenly. It was Jeff. He just came back from gym. His sweat, making his white (almost translucent) t-shirt sticks to his fine body. Nick couldn't help but stare at his best friend. He looks so hot that he felt like grabbing him and kissing him senseless. Wait... what?
"Are you okay Nick? You look pretty pale"
"To tell you the truth, i honestly don't know" Nick finally found the willpower to stop staring at his BEST FRIEND.
"Well... do you wanna talk about it?" Jeff smiled.
"No, i think i need to sort this out myself"
Jeff suddently lost his smile.
"erm...okay i guess" Jeff couldn't believe that Nick would hide something from him.
"Jeff, please! I promise to tell you about it when i have sorted it out. Aww, are you sulking? Come on Jeff, smile" Nick poked his stomach, making him laugh hysterically.
"Nick! Nick! Stop! Ahh!" he finally found the strength to push Nick off of him. 'Nicky, you are evil"
"Yes i am. So, what now! Do you want to watch a movie? Nick asked.
"Yes Nicky yes! Let's watch paranormal activity!"
"Jeff, are you sure? The last time you watched that..." Nick trailed off.
Jeff nodded, already setting up the DVD player. Nick laughed. Jeff was seriously crazy! Jeff hated horror movies yet here he was putting the DVD in the player. Jeff turned around and grinned goofily at Nick. That's when Nick noticed how beautiful Jeff looked. His smiles, his impossibly blonde hair, his big brown eyes, his... basically everything! Jeff fell beside Nick on the bed and Nick felt his heart beating furiously. Hopefully Jeff can't hear them. Ten minutes into the movie and Jeff was already scared. He was gripping one of Nick's hands and burying his head on Nick's shoulder. Nick just hoped that Jeff couldn't feel his heartbeat which is beating at a million miles per hour. Nick shifted his fingers so that he was intertwining their fingers. That's when he realised that he really loves Jeff because their hands felt perfect together, like they were meant to be.
Nick was not the type of person who will avoid his problems so he decided to confront Jeff tomorrow. The next day, Nick was gone and on his bed is a stalk of rose and a letter for Jeff.
Dear Jeffy,
I have to tell you something. I just hope that whatever I tell you won't ruin our friendship because you are too precious to me. I don't think I can live without you. Which is why I'm telling you this. I love you Jeffy. I want to be with you forever. I love everything about you. And I hope you love me back. But even if you don't, i hope that we will still be friends because i am very sure that if I lose you, i can't guarantee that I won't do anything stupid. I really love you-a lot. If you love me back, meet me at the garden at 10am. If you are not there, i guess you don't ove me back and that's okay. It's your choice. Although it'll hurt me, I can't force you and i have to respect your decision. I hope to see you at the garden later.
Love,
Nick.
It was now 9.58am and Jeff was still not here. He really wanted Jeff to meet him here. He had a little something for him. Suddenly, he saw a blonde haired guy running towards him. Nick raised his eyebrows, eyeing Jeff who was still in his pyjamas.
"I love you too Nicky" he immediately engulfed Nick in a big hug.
"I wanna sing you something" Jeff eyes widened.
Do you hear me,
I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky, oh my, baby I'm trying
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard
[Chorus]
I'm lucky I'm in love with my bestfriend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Everytime we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will
[Chorus]
Lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday
And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music fill the air
I'll put a flower in your hair
Though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now
[Chorus]
I'm lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Nick smiled at the memory. Just then he saw a blonde boy with wavy hair wearing a blue shirt that nick gave jeff last christmas and a cap saying "nick duval" staring at him.
"hey!" nick started calling him but he ran off. Nick decided to chase after him. He ran up a hill and through a candlelit path. Candlelit? What's going on? He decided to walk through the path slowly, feeling curious. What he saw next made his heart stop. Jeff was sitting on a hill, his guitar beside him, and he was holding up a bunch of balloons!
"what's going on?"
"i feel like giving you a surprise" jeff smiled, holding his hands out for Nick to take it. "this is for you" jeff said giving him the balloons.
"thanks jeffie. Hey, who's the boy that brought me here?"
"that's ross, my cousin. Yea... i had to bribe him" Jeff pouted. "Let's eat" jeff said passing him some Chinese takeouts.
"seriously? Chinese takeouts. I thought it would be something more... romantic" nick teased Jeff.
"sorry, i spent most of my money on bribing Ross and buying this balloons for you"
"you are seriously the best boyfriend ever"
"thanks honey"
"so, how am i going to eat with these balloons?"
Jeff stood up, and tied the balloons to a tree. "there..."
They spent the next ten minutes eating silently but it wasn't awkward.
"hey Nick, can i do something for you?"
"go ahead" Nick said raising his eyebrows.
Jeff took out his guitar and smiled at Nick. " it's my turn to sing to you" Jeff kissed Nick's nose before he started singing.
I would give up everything
Before I'd separate myself from you
After so much suffering
I've finally found unvarnished truth
I was all by myself for the longest time
So cold inside
And the hurt from the heart it would not subside
I felt like dying
Until you saved my life
Thank God I found you
I was lost lost without you
My every wish and every dream
Somehow became reality
When you brought the sunlight
Completed my whole life
I'm overwhelmed with gratitude
Cause baby I'm so thankful i found you.
I would give you everything
There's nothing in this world I wouldn't do
To ensure your happiness
I'll cherish every part of you
Because without you beside me I can't survive
Don't wanna try
If you're keeping me warm each and every night
I'll be all right
Cause I need you in my life
Thank God I found you (I'm thanking you)
I was lost lost without you (so lost without you)
My every wish and every dream (every dream, every dream)
Somehow became reality
When you brought the sunlight (brought the sunlight)
Completed my whole life
I'm overwhelmed with gratitude
Cause baby I'm so thankful I found you.
See I was so desolate
Before you came to me
Looking back I guess it shows
That we were destined to shine
After the rain to appreciate
The gift of what we have
And I'd go through it all over again
To be able to feel this way
Thank God I found you
I was lost lost without you (lost without you baby)
My every wish and every dream
Somehow became reality
When you brought the sunlight
Completed my whole life (whole life)
I'm overwhelmed with gratitude
Sweet baby I'm so thankful
I found you
Thank God I found you
I'm lost lost without you
I'm overwhelmed with gratitude
My baby I'm so thankful
I found you
I'm overwhelmed with gratitude
My baby I'm so thankful I found you
After he finished singing, he was met with an impact which caused him to fell backwards, his guitar fell to his side.
"I. Freaking. Love. You" Nick managed to say in between the kiss.
Jeff pulled away. "I love you too" he said before pulling Nick in for another kiss.
anyway the first song is called lucky by jason mraz. and the second song is called thank god i found you by mariah carey.
