Neither Sam nor Colby were going to school today. Colby was suspended for getting into a fight and Sam was going to take a couple of days off because of Diesel's death.

Sam was still thinking about what Colby said the day before, and what he meant by it. Could Colby have meant that he liked Sam? He is bisexual, so there is a chance, but Sam would have never guessed. He thought that his best friend thought of him as a brother.

Of course, the thought of Colby liking him gave him butterflies. Sam began to imagine what dating Colby would be like: He thought of all the dates they would have, all the kisses they would share and all the love that they would have for each other.

It all brought a smile to Sam's face. He forgot all about his problems while thinking of Colby. He closed his eyes as he continued thinking of him. Sam was lost in his own little world, that he couldn't even hear his mom saying his name.

She walked over to her son and shook him lightly. Sam opened his eyes with a jump.

"Oh, hey mom. What is it?" Sam asked. "Colby's outside. He said he wants to talk to you." She informed Sam with a small smile. "Oh, okay. Tell him I'll be down shortly." The blond hopped out of his bed and said.

Sam still had his pyjamas on even though it was almost noon. He hadn't left his room all day except when necessary and didn't think that he would be leaving the house so he didn't get changed.

Sam wondered why Colby was here. Nevertheless, he was very excited to be spending time with his best friend a.k.a crush. Sam quickly finished getting changed then rushed outside to Colby.

"Hey, Sammy." Colby smiled at him. "Hey, Colbs," Sam greeted. "My mom said you wanted to talk to me?" He brought up. "Uh, yeah. Before we talk can we go out and eat?" Colby asked. "Yeah, of course. But only if I pay." Sam told him. "No way! My treat. Besides, you always pay when we go out together." Colby said. "Fine, you can pay. But only this once." Sam gave in. "Great. Let's go to McDonald's. It's the closest to us right now." Colby mentioned and Sam agreed.

The two of them got a 20-pack chicken nugget to share plus french fries and drinks. Sam got Dr. Pepper and Colby got an Iced Tea.  Once they were done, they went to the park —which was empty— and sat on two of the swings.

"So what did you want to talk to me about?" Sam asked, sitting still, after some time on the swings. Colby stopped swinging and faced Sam. "It's about what I said last night..." Colby said quietly. "Do... do you know what I meant?" He asked hesitantly. Sam nodded. "Y-yes."

Colby got up and started walking away. Sam went after him.

"Colby, wait. Please." Sam grabbed Colby's wrist and made his friend face him. They were currently standing under a beautiful green tree. "What? What are you going to do? Tell me you actually hate me? Tell me you have feelings for Noah? Or even worse, those two-faced clowns, Taylor and Katrina-?" Colby kept rambling on until Sam interrupted him.

"Colby! I don't hate you. I could never hate you! You are my best friend! I wasn't going to say any of that! But to be honest, I did like Noah a small bit for a while but whatever I did feel for him is gone. There's only one person who I like in that way." Sam smiled softly.

"Who's the person?" Colby asked with jealousy. "You're so stupid." Sam chuckled. "Wow, you're calling me stupid now? Thanks a lo-" Sam cut Colby off a second time, but this time the blond placed his lips onto Colby's and kissed him, Pulling away after a couple of short seconds.

"I like you, Colby," Sam told him. "And I think I subconsciously knew this for a while but not until recently I started knowing consciously," He added. "How long have you known for?" Sam questioned. "I've known since the eighth grade." Colby chuckled lightly. "EIGHTH GRADE?!" Sam yelled in shock. "I'm sorry I didn't realize sooner. We could've been together already." He added.

"It's okay, Sam. At least we're together now. Well, that is if you want us to." Colby said the last part a bit quieter. "Cole Robert Brock, are you asking me to be your boyfriend?" Sam smirked. "Maybe..." The brown-haired boy bit his lips. "Well then, I will maybe just accept." The blond said as he looked into Colby's eyes.

The both chuckled before leaning in and pressing their lips against one anothers. As they were kissing for the second time, Sam and Colby brought their hands down to their sides then held hands tightly.

The two boys smiled as they continued on kissing lovingly, savouring this moment and not wanting it to end.
