High School AU

Bing and I have been best friends for over three years. Ever since freshman year of high school, we've had an unbreakable bond between us, and just three months ago, he had asked me out. Let me tell you, these last three months have been some of the happiest months of my life. I've never had any sort of boyfriend or girlfriend before twelfth grade, despite the ENTIRE school knowing that I'm bisexual, so it feels nice to be loved and showered with kisses every morning when I arrive at my locker.

However, lately Bing has seemed a little bit more distant than usual. He keeps on cutting our hang out sessions short because of some "private business". At first I was understanding and assumed that it could be some family stuff that he wants to keep private, but it's been a persistent issue yet he won't tell me what's up.

Every time I try to talk to him about it and explain that I'm concerned, it's always the same, "Chase, it's nothing to worry about. It's just private business that I can't explain right now", and it's really starting to piss me off.

He won't let me look through his phone, especially the text messages. The text messages are one thing that he SWEARS he will murder me for if I looked through them. Which has lead me to grow even more suspicious.

I don't want to assume that he's cheating on me, but all of the signs are there; leaving early, excuses for not hanging out, being late to hang out, and not letting me see who he's texting.

I really hope that he's not, he's the only person who has ever loved me and I love him just as much, perhaps even more. I would be devastated if he loved somebody else.

As the days went on, jealously started to slowly overtake me. That little voice in the back of my head telling me that he's cheating on me became stronger and stronger.

Earlier today we were hanging out, cuddling on my bed and watching some horror movies. (Totally not as an excuse to be able to cuddle closer to him when I'm frightened). About halfway through IT, he received a text message. I tried to take a peek at who it was, but he just twisted his body away from me.

"Sorry Chase, I've gotta go. The family's having troubles again." He sighed as he tried to get off of my bed, but I stopped him as he stood up. I grabbed onto his arm and kept a tight grip.

"Why do you always do this?!" I asked. "You never tell me exactly what's going on, it can't be family troubles all the time!!" I snapped at him.

He managed to force his arm out of my grasp and gave me a look of nervousness. "I promise you'll find out soon enough."

With that, he left, and once again, I was left lying on my bed while children scream about the face-eating clown about to kill them in the background.

Now I'm alone, on my back and let out a heavy sigh. I want us to go back to the way we were in the first two months of or relationship. We hung out ALL THE TIME, we even had sleepovers sometimes. We studied together, we ate lunch together, we did EVERYTHING together. But now it seems like he doesn't want to do ANYTHING with me.

At this point, I was convinced that Bing was cheating on me. Nothing else could convince me otherwise. I was at the brink of just exploding on him and accusing him of so much nasty shit, but my morals kept me from doing that much, but the anxiety of him cheating on me became dominant, and I was furious.

I need a plan to prove my point. I need a plan to either prove that he's not cheating, or catch him in the act. Hopefully he hasn't been fucking other dudes, that would just make the situation worse. It's one thing to be kissing and shit, but full on sex when you're already in a relationship is just the fucking worst.

I researched ways online on how to get revenge on a cheater, despite me not actually being sure that he is, and collected a bunch of methods and came up with a single plan based on them. Now I needed a partner to do this with.

I called up my friend Mark and explained that I needed someone to assist me in exposing Bing. Or at the least, get him to tell me what's been going on. I needed Mark to act as my boyfriend, or at the least someone I can flirt with, to make Bing jealous and hopefully pull me away and explain himself.

It was a fucked up plan, I will admit that, but Mark agreed none the less.

"Meet me at my locker at lunch tomorrow." I requested.

"Alright, see you then."

I smiled and hung up the phone, turning off the movie and getting ready for bed.

Tomorrow is going to be hectic.

- The next day -

"Hey Chase, are you ready to put the plan into action?" Mark asked me as he approached me at my locker. I nodded with a smirk.

"Yup! I just checked the cafeteria, sneakily might I add, and Bing is already in there waiting for me," I explained. "You can go and sit down first, and I'll come sit beside you and start flirting with you."

Mark nodded hesitantly. "Are you really sure you want to do this? I mean, Bing can be aggravating sometimes, but he's a good dude. I honestly don't think that he'd cheat on anyone, especially you." He gave me a nervous look.

I sighed. "This is strictly to make him confess what's been happening. If I find out that he's not cheating, cool, amazing. That means that we can continue to date-"

"That is if he doesn't hate you after..." Mark mumbled as he looked down at his feet.

I scoffed and rolled my eyes. "And if I do catch him cheating, so be it. That just means I have an excuse to blow up on him."

Mark took a deep breath and looked up at me. "If Bing hates me after this, I'm blaming you." He narrowed his eyes.

"Fine," I replied. "Now go to the cafeteria and find a place to sit. I'll be there in a few minutes."

Mark nodded quickly and headed to the cafeteria, stopping for a second when he opened the door, and finally stepped inside once he presumably spotted Bing.

I waited a few minutes for Mark to get himself situated, and then walked to the cafeteria myself.

I carefully opened the door, making sure that it doesn't squeak, and immediately spotted Bing on his phone. Thank god he didn't spot me right away. I bit my lip as guilt started to kick in, but it was too late to turn back now. Right now, it's now or never.

I spotted Mark and quickly strutted over to him, taking a seat beside him.

"Heyyy Markimoo." I said in the most flirtatious voice I could manage.

Mark looked up at me and raised an eyebrow, acting confused. "Hello, Chase..? You've never called me that before." He furrowed his eyebrows.

"Well... its a new nickname I've came up with for you because you are just too damn adorable!" I giggled and glanced over to where Bing was. I saw him hurriedly look up in my direction, making some awkward eye contact with me. I quickly looked back at Mark and we continued.

"Well, uh... thank you? But we're just friends, so I don't know what you're trying to prove." He bit his lip.

"I'd like to change that," I smirked at him suggestively. "You're just so perfect."

"Chase, don't you already have a boyfriend?" He asked.

"Well, I used to. But lately he's been so distant from me and we barely see each other anymore. I think he wants to break up with me." I explained sadly.

"Oh, that sucks.." Mark sympathetically sighed. "I know how that feels."

Suddenly, I heard footsteps approaching us followed by someone clearing their throat.

"Chase, can I talk to you for a minute?" He rested his hand on my shoulder.

"Oh!" I chirped and turned my head around to see Bing. "Yeah of course! One minute Mark." I said before I stood up and Bing grabbed onto my arm, pulling me outside the cafeteria and pinned me to the lockers.

"What the fuck was that?!" He growled. I looked at him with a confused expression. "What do you mean?"

"You know DAMN well what I mean," He yelled, anger and hate started to swirl in his eyes. "Why the hell were you flirting with Mark?!" He glared daggers at me.

"Ohh, that. Well, it seems like you don't want me anymore, so I figured I'd move on to Mark." Guilt started to aggressively build up inside of me but I kept my composure, watching as Bing's expression turned from one of anger to one of sadness with only a hint of anger and frustration.

"What?" Was all he could manage to squeak out in a hushed tone, nearly a whisper.

"Uhh... yeah..." I stuttered, barely able to hide the guilt anymore. "I... you..." I sighed, looking down as tears started to fill my eyes. "I... thought you were cheating on me..." I admitted.

Bing gasped. "What?! Why would I ever do that?! What made you think that?!" Bing exclaimed, causing me to jump a little bit and raise my head to look up at him again.

"I thought you were cheating on me because you've been so distant from me lately.... you always have some sort of excuse to leave early or not hang out at all... and you won't let me look through your text messages or else you'll murder me... you've just been seeming to want to get away from me...," I sobbed as a tear rolled down my cheek. "So Mark and I did an experiment where I would flirt with him all in an attempt to get you to come clean about what you're doing..." I started to cry harder. "I just don't want to lose you..." My voice was barely audible.

Bing's face quickly changed from anger, to sadness and guilt, like I was feeling. "Chase I.. I didn't know that I was making you feel that way."

"I know this was a terrible thing to do!" I suddenly blurted out. "And I'm sorry! I just hope you don't hate me after this."

"No, Chase, I don't hate you, but do you want to know the real reason I've been so distant lately?" He asked me sternly. I nodded.

"I've been going to my tutoring sessions for my math and English class, and those text messages that made me leave so early, is because she was texting me reminding me that the next lesson was soon," He admitted. "I didn't want to tell you where I have been going because..." he suddenly stopped and looked down at the ground, sighing guilty whilst fiddling with his fingers.

"Because what?" I asked, using two of my fingers to lift his head up to face me.

"Because... I didn't want you to think I was unintelligent... I was afraid that if... if I told you I needed a tutor, you would think that I was too stupid for you. I didn't want to be a dumb boyfriend, I wanted to be smart so that you'd love me more," He admitted sadly, sighing afterwards. "I just... didn't want to let you down."

My eyes widened and I didn't hesitate to embrace him in a tight, warm hug, burying my face in his neck and rubbing his back softly.

He wrapped his arms around my torso and wasn't slow to hug me even tighter than I was hugging him. He probably would've suffocated me if he had hugged me any tighter.

"Bing.." I said carefully, it being muffled by the fabric of his shirt. He hummed in response.

I sighed softly and lifted my head off of his shoulder, but kept my arms wrapped around him. I then rested my forehead on his and gazed into his eyes, seriously I could stare at them all day. They are just too damn beautiful.

"I would never want to leave you, no matter what," I smiled. "You could never be too stupid for me, I don't care if you were still stuck in ninth grade math, I still love you so fucking much. Knowledge doesn't always translate to your personality. You are the sweetest person I've ever met, and I am nothing without you."

I saw tears start to swell in the corners of his eyes and were quick to gloss his eyes entirely, making them appear super shiny. He smiled softly and let out another short sob, wrapping his arms around my neck gently. "Thank you, Chase."

I giggled and placed a soft kiss on his nose, causing him to blush a bright shade of pink. "You're welcome, Bing," I said softly. "I love you, and always will. Never forget that."

Bing laughed wholeheartedly and placed a loving kiss on my lips, which I happily returned.

"I love you too, Chase."

Aye another fluffy ending! Are you surprised? Because I sure am!

Wow, this one's a long one.

I'm sorry that there have been now two Bing X Chase one shots almost directly after one another, but I ship them so what can you do 🤷🏻‍♀️

Also there have been three right in a row that centres around Chase but, he's amazing so who can complain?
