Jade and me sat together at lunch. I told her what happened in class.
"I can't believe he made a move on you."
"Me too."
While we were talking, Keywon sat in front of us.
"What do you want?" Jade harshly asked
"I want to talk to Marcus alone."
Jade looked at me.
"Why me?"
"I have some questions?"
"Ask me then." I replied
Keywon looked around.
"Not with her here."
"Are you hiding what you really feel?" Jade chuckled
Keywon bit his lip.
"Jade you can leave me with him."
"Are you sure?"
I nodded.
"Okay. Text me when you are done. I want get another bag of chips."
Jade left the table.
"What do you want to ask me?"
"Did Blake make a move on you?" He whispered
"If he did?"
He stared at me.
"It's a yes or no."
"Again if he did? Why does it matter to you? You have a girlfriend."
He rolled his eyes and balled up his fist.
"I wanted to make a move on you, okay?"
"Why?"
"Because I'm gay."
"But you have a girlfriend. Plus you don't know what I like?"
"Do you like men or women?"
"You figure it out."
He huffed.
"Look. Blake is the gay basketball star. I'm just a bad boy or bully whatever you want to call me, who is hiding that he is gay."
I put a chip in mouth.
"You not going say anything?"
"Not really. I have nothing to say to that."
He looked like he was irritated.
"I don't get you."
"Not my problem."
Keywon huffed again.
"I just told I'm gay and you act like you don't care."
"Because I don't."
"Huh?"
"I don't care about your sexually. That has nothing to do with me. So why should I care what you like?"
He was shocked by my response.
"So you don't care I'm gay?"
"No."
He just looked at me.
"Anything else before I text Jade?"
"Can I get your number?"
"No."
"Why?"
"I don't want to give it to you."
I texted Jade to comeback to the table.
"You going make me earn it."
I just shrugged.
"I'm back."
Keywon groaned and got up. He looked at me and left.
"What did he want?" Jade questioned
Before I could respond Blake sat in front of us.
"Hey Marcus."
"Hi."
He licked his lips.
"Hey Blake. Where's your girlfriend?"
He jumped at Jade's question.
"Oh. She with her volleyball team."
"Maybe you go to her or with your basketball team." Jade hissed
I chuckled.
"I wanted to ask my new friend something."
I looked at him and tilted my head.
"What?"
"Um...Are you joining any sports?"
"No. Sports aren't my thing. I like to watch though."
He bit his lip.
"Oh. Well are you going join a club or something?"
"I'm going check out the culinary club, since Jade is in it and I like it."
He rubbed the back of his neck.
"That's cool. Well do you want to come to my basketball practice?"
"No."
Jade started to laugh.
"Why not?"
"Your girlfriend is going be there. I don't like to be a side."
With that said the ball rung.
"Are you still coming over tonight?" He quickly asked
"I might, but I might go to Jade's."
We both got up and left. Blake stayed at the table.
"I can't believe what just happened." Jade said with a light laugh
"Me either."
