We have got a whole pub just for ourselves… Not just a normal pub either, it is the biggest pub in the neighborhood…
Everything was perfect… We had everything we need… Music, booze, food, everything…
It was Jake’s dad who was sponsoring the party. So we didn’t have to worry about the cost… He is like the richest man in the country!
We all were talking with each other, playing simple games while eating and drinking…
Tonight should be the night I reveal my feelings to Luke! I have decided that a few days back… He is in a really good mood today. I haven’t seen him this happy ever… Also, today is an important day for both of us…
No matter, how confident I am about this, I was nervous too… I don’t even know if he likes guys or not… I just sense that he is also gay… But that is not a sure thing… So there is a high probability for me to not get succeeded. But I cannot wait any more, keeping this buried my heart…
It is super hard for me to act normal in front of him… He has a lovely smile… A smile that can attract anyone to him… So whenever he smiles, I couldn’t resist myself from staring at him like a fool… Even on the field, when he hug me to celebrate, I had to put all my effort to retain my self from kissing him…All these emotions are so overwhelming… The more I hide them the more they are going to drain me…
“Bro, you should take a shot with us today… You haven’t hung out with us for a long time now…” Bob said, putting his arm around my shoulder…
“I can’t drink today, Bob… Let’s hang out another day for sure…” I said. I want to keep my mind straight today…
“What the fu** bro… You can’t say no to me like this… I am your best friend… Can’t you remember how we used to hang out those days?” he said again…
I used to hang out with them every day… We did everything together… We took alcohol, weeds… We watched p**n as much as we wanted… We fu**ed girls like there is no tomorrow… We got into fights… Though I can’t be proud of the things we did together, I can’t deny the fact that we enjoyed ourselves… Whatever I did, Bob was always there with me… He is my best friend, and he is more like a brother to me…
I felt like I can’t refuse his request. I used to drink all night, so taking just one shot won’t hurt me, right? On the other hand, it may help me overcome the nervousness I am currently facing.
I took just one shot with him… Unfortunately, even before I put the glass down, Luke was in front of me…
I didn’t know where he has come from? He was not there earlier, I am pretty sure…
I know Luke doesn’t disapprove about taking alcohol… It is about weed, he is so against… But I felt ashamed as soon as he saw me… Didn’t I tell him, I stopped every bad thing, including taking alcohol… I felt like I cheated him… “Luke! Come and join us for a shot!” Bob shouted…
“No, Bob… I am not going to get drunk today…” Luke said, looking at me.
“We are not trying to get drunk, bro… We just want to celebrate…” Bob said…
Without saying anything, Luke smiled…
“Anyway, the coach is looking for you, Bob…” Luke said.
“Ah… Why is that?” Bob asked.
“Not sure… He is near the entrance…” Luke replied.
“Okay, then… You carry on, Bro…” Bob said, standing up and handing me the bottle which was on his hand.
“You take this, Bob… I don’t want to drink now…” I said quickly.
“Okay… Okay… You guys suck, you know that… I don’t know why the fu** you don’t drink…” then he walked away from us while cursing us for not drinking with him.
“He is pretty drunk, don’t care what he says…” I said to Luke.
He smiled again without saying anything. That smile I love so much…
“Luke if you re not busy, can I talk to you for a few minutes…” I asked…
“Yeah sure, what’s up?” he asked.
“Shall we go outside, it is too noisy here…” I suggested.
“Okay…” Luke replied confusedly…
We both went outside the pub… There was a beautiful garden and a pool outside… No one was there in the garden. So this is the perfect place for me to admit to him what is in my mind.
Third Person POV
Shane was so much excited… He actually thanked Bob for offering him a glass of alcohol, otherwise, he was not sure if he could gather up the courage to speak to Luke. He had relationships with so many girls… For some girls, he had even said that he loves them… But none of those times, he really meant those words… Love was not something he believed in… He just wanted fun and pleasure from a relationship, nothing else… This time it is totally different… He really loves Luke, and he wants everything to work perfectly between them….
They both walked towards a corner…
“So… What’s up…” Luke asked. He was so nervous too… He was feeling something really unusual. He kind of knew what Shane might want to discuss with him, but he was not even sure if he truly wants to hear it. Shane was not sure how to start the talk. He had thought multiple times how he should put this in front of Luke. But now when he is in front of Luke, looking at him, it was far more difficult than he thought. “Luke, can you remember you asked me how I changed my s****l preferences all of sudden…” Shane asked.
Luke nodded without saying anything…
“I told you even I don’t know the exact reason… But now I think, not just my sexuality, but my whole life is changed because of one person…” Shane said, not taking his eyes away from Luke…
Luke felt like his heart stopped for a moment… Please, stop Shane… This is enough… I don’t think I am ready to hear this… Luke thought restlessly…
“You know who is that…” Shane asked because Luke was silent…
Luke didn’t reply to that either… He actually didn’t know how to respond…
“That person is You, Luke…” Shane said, making Luke’s worst fear a reality…
“I love you, Luke… I love you so damn much…”
This time Luke’s heart indeed stopped for a second… He couldn’t even think of what he should do next… There is no doubt Shane meant every word he said… But is he ready to accept what Shane just said…
“You are truly a wonderful person, Luke… You have this power to make everyone who is around you happy… When I started to get close to you, I every day got amazed by your charming characteristics… You made me want to change my self to a better person…” Shane was speaking, looking right at Luke’s eyes… But he couldn’t figure out what Luke must be thinking… His eyes were so blank…
“I know, Luke… All these must be pretty crazy to you… I don’t even know you like guys or not… But I am really sorry, I couldn’t keep it inside me anymore… I was overwhelmed by these feelings…” Shane said again…
Luke was still silent… There were times some girls came to him and express their love for him… But he knew none of them were truly in love with him, all of them were just having a crush… It was just Sally, who truly had feelings for him… Even at that time, Luke didn’t feel this difficult to face that situation… He could handle it properly without hurting her… But now, he felt totally dumb…
“Please, Luke… Please, tell something…” Shane’s pleading voice made him even more nervous and panicked…
“Shane, I think we must go inside… You are drunk…” Luke said, trying his best to be casual…
Shane looked at him sadly… Then he started to walk towards him and stood in front of him… They were so close to each other…
Both of them could even hear the other one’s heartbeat… Their warm sighs got blended up in the air…
If Luke could go behind he would have already gone without being this close to Shane… But there was a wall behind him…
