-Jake's POV-

I'm never going to get anywhere in life just laying in bed and moping.
My phone rings. It's Dirk. I sigh and answer.
" Hi, Dirk. "
" Hey Jake. Just called to check up on you. "
" That's very nice of you Dirk,-"
I sniffled. My voice was shaky.
"- but I don't need you to check up on me. I'm fine. "
" Jake, I can tell you've been crying. You don't have to tell me if you don't want to. But I think it would make you feel better if you did. "

" That would be nice Dirk. But I don't think I should. "

" Can you at least tell me why? "
I sniffled again. A tear running down my cheek.

" I just don't think you'd think of me as the same. "

" Your still the same person I met 2 months ago, and I still accept you no matter what. "

A moment of silence went by.

" Dirk? "

" Yeah Jake? "

" We'll always be friends, right? "

" Of course Jake. Forever and always. "

" Would it make you feel better if I told you what's wrong? "

" It would help, yeah. "

" Well, 'ol chap it's just......"

" You can tell me Jake. "

" .........I love you, Dirk. "

I immediately hung up and buried my face in my hands.

" He probably doesn't even love me back. "

A single tear slipped down my cheek.

" He probably doesn't even really care about me. "

My phone buzzed. I got a text from Dirk.

' I love you too Jake. '
