Good Friends

Part Two I'm Sorry

Ever since that night, James hasn't talked very much about it; most likely&nbsp;

for Joey's sake. Although Joey can't stop thinking about it, he doesn't bring it up.&nbsp;

Until after school. James and his group of friends, Adrian, Jesse, Kael and Joey,&nbsp;

decided it would be a fun idea to hang around town.&nbsp;

This time Joey was forced to stop ignoring James. He had tried so hard to&nbsp;

push this out of his mind. Telling himself 'I'm not gay.. There are absolutely no feelings for&nbsp;

him..I like girls..I love girls..'&nbsp;

He kept thinking, steadily convincing himself. "Hey!" Jesse nudged Joey in&nbsp;

the side. "Look at the body on that chick.. I'd like to have a girl like that." Joey&nbsp;

unintentionally ignored him. "Hey? Dude!" Jesse pressed on. "You're not even&nbsp;

going to look?" Jesse looked at him in disapproval.&nbsp;

"Uh..yeah. Sorry dude, not in the mood today." Joey stared at his feet as they&nbsp;

walked.&nbsp;

"Ok.." Jesse walked ahead with the rest. James waited for Joey to catch up. Joey&nbsp;

glanced at him, but quickly looked away; I'm not gay..I'm not gay..I'm not gay.. They&nbsp;

caught up with the group. Kael got a call from his parents urging him to come&nbsp;

home because of family matter, so he walked home.

Around Eight they decided to all go home. James walked Joey home,&nbsp;

although Joey insisted he shouldn't.&nbsp;

"Hey..so about last night--" James started.

"Nothing." Joey cut in. &nbsp;&nbsp;He began walking faster and shoved his hands in his pockets. James had&nbsp;

to run to catch up with him."Hey! Don't you think we should at least try to talk&nbsp;

about it?"

"No!" Joey began sprinting. "I never want to think about it again!" His voice was&nbsp;

shaking.

"Dude.. Please..wait!" James called after him. He stopped to breathe. It was&nbsp;

getting dark and cool outside.

Eventually Joey had to stop as well. James walked to him tiredly. "Hey d--&nbsp;

are you..crying?"

"..yes." Joey was sitting on the street; his hands covered his face. "I don't want to&nbsp;

talk to you.." Joey whispered.

"I'm sorry.." James said as he sat down next to him. "I never meant for this&nbsp;

to happen." James sighed. Joey looked up at him; tears streamed down his face.

"What am I going to do..I really think I..care about you." Joey rubbed his eyes.

"We'll find a way..I promise." James wrapped his arm around Joey.&nbsp;

Joey's tension fell.&nbsp;
