Although Joey can't stop thinking about it, he doesn't bring it up.\u0026nbsp;\n\nUntil after school. James and his group of friends, Adrian, Jesse, Kael and Joey,\u0026nbsp;\n\ndecided it would be a fun idea to hang around town.\u0026nbsp;\n\nThis time Joey was forced to stop ignoring James. He had tried so hard to\u0026nbsp;\n\npush this out of his mind. Telling himself 'I'm not gay.. There are absolutely no feelings for\u0026nbsp;\n\nhim..I like girls..I love girls..'\u0026nbsp;\n\nHe kept thinking, steadily convincing himself. \"Hey!\" Jesse nudged Joey in\u0026nbsp;\n\nthe side. \"Look at the body on that chick.. I'd like to have a girl like that.\" Joey\u0026nbsp;\n\nunintentionally ignored him. \"Hey? Dude!\" Jesse pressed on. \"You're not even\u0026nbsp;\n\ngoing to look?\" Jesse looked at him in disapproval.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Uh..yeah. Sorry dude, not in the mood today.\" Joey stared at his feet as they\u0026nbsp;\n\nwalked.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Ok..\" Jesse walked ahead with the rest. James waited for Joey to catch up. Joey\u0026nbsp;\n\nglanced at him, but quickly looked away; I'm not gay..I'm not gay..I'm not gay.. They\u0026nbsp;\n\ncaught up with the group. Kael got a call from his parents urging him to come\u0026nbsp;\n\nhome because of family matter, so he walked home.\n\nAround Eight they decided to all go home. James walked Joey home,\u0026nbsp;\n\nalthough Joey insisted he shouldn't.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Hey..so about last night--\" James started.\n\n\"Nothing.\" Joey cut in. \u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;He began walking faster and shoved his hands in his pockets. James had\u0026nbsp;\n\nto run to catch up with him.\"Hey! Don't you think we should at least try to talk\u0026nbsp;\n\nabout it?\"\n\n\"No!\" Joey began sprinting. \"I never want to think about it again!\" His voice was\u0026nbsp;\n\nshaking.\n\n\"Dude.. Please..wait!\" James called after him. He stopped to breathe. It was\u0026nbsp;\n\ngetting dark and cool outside.\n\nEventually Joey had to stop as well. James walked to him tiredly. \"Hey d--\u0026nbsp;\n\nare you..crying?\"\n\n\"..yes.\" Joey was sitting on the street; his hands covered his face. \"I don't want to\u0026nbsp;\n\ntalk to you..\" Joey whispered.\n\n\"I'm sorry..\" James said as he sat down next to him. \"I never meant for this\u0026nbsp;\n\nto happen.\" James sighed. Joey looked up at him; tears streamed down his face.\n\n\"What am I going to do..I really think I..care about you.\" Joey rubbed his eyes.\n\n\"We'll find a way..I promise.\" James wrapped his arm around Joey.\u0026nbsp;\n\nJoey's tension fell.\u0026nbsp;\n\n~\n\n  \n  \n\n","series":{"name":"Good Friends","previous":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/1144489-good-friends-part-one.json","next":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/1148287-good-friends-part-three.json"}}
