Jack's POV

Kyle has been walking me home for about a week now. He has a strange tendency to start singing. I've kind of noticed he likes to sing love songs, and this wouldn't be a problem for me if I didn't feel the way I do around him. BRRRRRRRRRRRRIIIIIING! The end of class bell rang loudly shaping me from my thoughts. It's time to pack up and meet Kyle outside the gate to walk home. Wonder what he's gonna sing this time. Once I got out the gate I saw Kyle but the thing is I also saw James and his worthless gang. Shit. What do I do? Do I just waltz on up tootle and say hey let's go or do I wait for James to leave? "Hey boys! Look! ThAt damn faggot is still around!" James stated to his little group. They all laughed and cracked their knuckles. Too late. Gotta think. Gotta think. How to get outta this one? Without hesitation my terrified eyes met Kyle's. Next thing I knew he was right next to me pulling me along. James stopped Kyle, "And where are you going with him?" James questioned him, a dark sinister look in his eye. Kyle seemed to stiffen, as he stared James straight in the eye. "Watch who you pick a fight with James. Next time you might be the one in the hospital getting a blood transfusion." Kyle stated in a voice I've never heard him use before. James didn't like Kyle's comment in the slightest. "Is that a challenge, Britney Spears?" James growled. Kyle dropped his bag, "it is now dumdass!" Kyle sneered back. I decided it would be best if I backed away a little bit. James gave the first punch gaining nothing but air as Kyle dogged landing his own punch squarely on James's jaw. Ouch. That had to have hurt! Soon enough there was only two people left standing from James's gang before some teachers stormed out to pull Kyle off of James. They just as quickly sent us on our way as they had stopped the fight.

Kyle and I walked in silence for the longest time before he began to sing a song. " tell me pretty lies, look me in the face. Tell me that you love me." He began but I couldn't help but mumble "I love you" after that verse, making him stop singing entirely and stare at me wide eyed. Shit. He heard me. I stared back with a slightly blank e pressing. "D-did you just say-" I interrupted him before he could finish his sentence. "I said. I. Love. You." I was silently panicking. Was this a bad idea? Confessing this soon? After all I don't even know really for myself if I even like him! Suddenly Kyle's lips where on mine. They tasted of peppermint, and they where soft. Really soft. It only took a second for the initial shock to fade and I kissed back. This was all the proof I needed to know that I loved him. Even though we haven't known each other for very long. I did. It was strange. Once he pulled away I just stared into his eyes. He chuckled and pulled me along to start walking as he started to sing again. The same song.
