Joe entered his hotel room, closed the door behind him but he didn't hear the door close, so he looked back and saw Colby blocking it with his foot with his arms crossed against his chest.

"You wanna tell me what's going on?" Colby asked raising an eyebrow

"I don't know what you're talking about" He answered, but he didn't look at him "It's late Colby, go to sleep."

"Go to sleep…?" he murmured and chuckled sarcastically "That's it? 'Go to sleep'? How am I supposed to go to sleep, huh?"

"Colby, just go!" Joe was louder, then turned around to face him

"You know what… Fuck you!" Colby pushed him making him sit down on the bed "Are you fucking bipolar!?"

Joe stood up, he was a little taller than the two toned man, staring right into his eyes. The Samoan grabbed his forearm Shit, not another fight Colby thought, but instead, with his free hand Joe pulled his head closer to his pressing their lips together. Colby's eyes were open still trying to figure out that moment. As Colby closed his eyes enjoying the kiss, Joe open his realizing that that wasn't a dream, it was reality and reality wasn't that easy. Joe softly pushed him away "I'm sorry, I didn't- I'm so sorry" Everyone knows that feeling when you're close to someone you like and the only thing you think of is kissing them, but you can't, you have to control yourself, because it you don't it may be heaven or it may be hell… well, Joe couldn't control himself, at least around Colby.

"Yeah, you should be! Why did you shut me out, Joe? I seriously don't understand this love/hate game of yours!" He yelled "Why? That's all I want to know, why?" His voice seemed weaker as he spoke those words

"Because of you! I like you too damn much to handle the distance! It kills me being near you and can't touch you… it kills me having to lie about what I feel about you when all I want to do is shout to the world that…" He hesitated, not because it wasn't true, but because he'd never said that before to someone that important and special to him like Colby. "I'm in love with you…I mean I've known you for years, we've been through a lot together and, damn, I kept this inside my head for so long and that night, in the backstage, I blew it… I let myself go. Look, I'm sorry I kissed you, we were supposed to be friends and once more… I blew it!" Joe sat down on the bed.

Colby didn't know what to say, Joe had never been so honest with him about his feelings. He was happy to finally know exactly what was on his beloved gray eyed friend's mind.

"Thank God you blew it" He finally managed to say and sat down next to Joe, put his arms around him and Joe pressed his forehead on to his "You know I love you, don´t you?"

"I do now" He chuckled. It felt so right to Joe being there embraced by Colby. They sat like that for a little while but it was almost 4 am so Colby went to his room. He had that stupid smile on his face that people have when they're in love. He let himself fall on the bed and he laid there looking at the ceiling, it was nothing special really: white with a lamp hanging right in the center but to Colby it made perfect sense, to him, in that moment, a chicken with teeth would make perfect sense.

Joe meant more to him than he'd like to admit and the fact that he doesn't admit it or that when he realized he was thinking about Joe he forced himself to think about something else kept him under control… well sort of. He took his shirt and his dark gray sweat pants off and got himself into bed. It would be so much better if Joe was there holding him, in the most innocent way possible, he just wanted to feel his arms around him, Joe's skin touching his.

"Falling in love is an extraordinary feeling when the person you love loves you back"
