Keith's gaze collided with mine, leaving me bewildered. My expression, a mix of anger and perhaps jealousy, puzzled me. Christ! Why did I react this way?

Swiftly, I averted my eyes from Keith, redirecting my attention to Billy, who had already joined me, his gaze remained fixated on the unfolding scene ahead. I dared not glance back at Keith or even Winifred, who must already be guessing about my crush on Keith since she knew I was gay, and I didn't want anyone revealing my secret except me.

The atmosphere in the classroom suddenly seemed calm, so I assumed Keith and the others had left the class.

"That was such a scene." Billy started and I nodded in agreement. "Guess we will be seeing Winifred often." He says and I raise a questioning look at him.

"What do you mean? I thought she didn't live in London." I whispered.

"How do you know she doesn't live here?" Billy asked. I bit my lip, not sure if I should tell him the truth.

"We knew each other during elementary school," I told him; h

    "Matthew and Keith, it's your turn," Mr. Jones called from the front of the class, and I got up on my feet almost immediately.I should have been going first, but just like the rest of the groups in the class, they had gone together r, so I remained standing,n g, waiting for Keith to get on his own feet so we could walk together to the class.Winifred was still busy clingy around him wishing him luck, telling him we would come out as the top of the class and shit. She has been that way since today, and I and Keith hadn't even had time to discuss how this presentation would happen all because of her.Well, who am I kidding? It was obviously because of me that we didn't meet.I had been avoiding Keith since we met today at the front of the school and I had prevented seeing him instead of asking about his progress and how the presentation was coming through, I just couldn't get what he did to me out of my mind, and I had stayed away from class since he would be present until when I heard

    I breathed out a sigh for the hundredth of times.To hell with my ego, I couldn't even stop him or see him off.Gosh! What's fucking wrong with me? And shit why does regret feels to annoy me this much?I was still in my thoughts when I heard a soft knock on my door, it was opened and Jude walked in."What are you doing here?" I raised my eyes at Jude who just walked into my room."Matthew left early." He began and I rolled my eyes at him."How's that any of your concern?" I opened a page from the book Mathew had left behind and how he had left my room replayed in my head.Why am I still thinking about him? Why is each of the words he wrote down in this book making me miss him? How come I'm beginning to feel regret that I hadn't stopped him from leaving?He looked hurt like I had said something bad and no matter how much I think about it, there's absolutely nothing I said that should have hurt him."I thought it would take some time, I'm only surprised," Jude replied resting his back o

    I stopped on my track after shutting the door to Keith's room.He wasn't even following me, well what did I expect from someone who's homophobic but yet trying to show he's not?He just indirectly said the thought of I and Billy planning to date will probably disgust him.I wonder how he would have reacted if I had truly told him I had a crush on him. Perhaps he and his brother would just start throwing insults at me.I swallowed hard sniffing, my eye already began to be watery and I knew I was going to cry soon.I hadn't even confessed how I felt about him yet he was already hurting me. He's a Deacon son, he would probably try all in his power to stop me and Billy from dating. Even though I don't have any crush on Billy yet. I think it's high time I just begin to crush on him.He will treat me better than Keith.I deserve better, fuck it if I'm gay, everyone sins every day!I descended the stairs still holding my tears, I don't even know why I had the urge to cry I just knew I had to

    "Oh, never mind," I say with a small smile, looking away from him.Whether it was true or not I shouldn't even be asking, "I'm sorry for---" I was about to apologize when Matthew cut me off"What if it were true?" As he said these words I couldn't shift my gaze away from that hazel eyes of his.So? What if he has a crush on me? I rephrased his word in my headWould I yell at him as I did with Jude and Billy? Call him a fucking nutcase?Matthew's look held the one that wanted a desperate answer but how should I reply to him? I was even feeling stupidly happy inside of me. What am I now?A gay like him?I stood up immediately. "I think we've overstayed our visit; we still need to work on presenting it at my home," I said, taking some stuff of mine.I began climbing down the mountain ignoring Matthew whether he was coming along or not.Perhaps I was just running away from his question... I would love to tell him he was not being serious but why did a part of me want to admit I like his c

    "Heart disease?" He repeated lowly and I smiled dryly knowing that he was already feeling compassion for me by the way he stopped on his track and glanced at me, his lips looked pinker from up close with how his hair smelled and his cologne must have started smelling from me."Hmm... I'm being treated by the way." I assured with a small smile."I wish you a speedy recovery." He says and I try to hide the sadness in me.He mustn't know I'm dying soon, no. No one should know."Yes, I would get well soon." I lied but no doubt there wasn't the grace of hope in my voice.Keith exhaled heavily, adjusting his grip as he carried me. He walked on, his silence stretching on like a tense cord. I guess his thoughts were consumed by me. He might not seem to care about anyone but I was sure he does seem to care about some people and I might be part of those people."Do you wanna go on a walk after we finished at my home?" He asked in a low whisper."Huh... Billy and I are to ride a bicycle later t
