The two times TJ left Cyrus speechless in front of his friends and the one time Cyrus left TJ a blushing speechless mess in front of his (TJ) friends.

Is set in high school, Cyrus is in year 9 (freshman) and TJ is in 10 (sophomore).

I kinda wanted to have like the whole thing where they have clearly liked each other since middle school.

(please read to understand the plot better)

Also, the way their school runs is going to be like how mine is to help the plot, where basically there are 6 lesson spots a day but you only have 5 classes and you don't have every class every day, so there are free periods & if you have no classes on you don't have to be at school/on school grounds. for example on Thursday I go to school late as I don't have a period one class then I have my cafe class, recess, then I have a double english class and then I get to go home as I don't have anything on for the rest of the day as I don't have any classes that are usually run that time of the day if that makes sense.

First-time TJ leaves Cyrus speechless:

Cyrus's POV:

Not So Scary Basketball Guy: Morning Underdog, I'll be at the park in 10.

Walking up to the swings I sit down on mine and plug my headphones in listening to the playlist TJ and I had made, a mix of songs we both liked and songs we wanted the other to hear. A song called Lemon Boy came on, one of the songs TJ had put on there for me to hear, I liked it. As the song ends I hear someone come up behind me, turning my head I notice TJ was behind me trying to scare me.

"aw damn, I really thought I was going to be able to scare you this time" I chuckle at him while he pouts at me, reminding him that he needs to be lighter on his feet next time then. He sits down on the swing next to me and starts swinging. I stop swinging and just watch him, he always looks happier when he's on the swings. We'd been meeting here for just over two years now, since we starting meeting here back when I was in year 7, him 8. I always noticed that he was happier, that was probably about the time that I also noticed that I had a little crush on him. It's been two years now, it's not a little middle school crush anymore, I now really really liked him, but I'd never tell him as I also really valued our friendship and would rather have that than tell him and possibly lose him as a friend altogether, he was basically my best friend. I hear TJ calling my name snapping me back into reality. I look over at him and smile, he informs me that we need to start walking to school now, before asking me if I was ok. Informing him that I was, that I'd just zoned out. We start walking towards school, our arms brushing lightly. I wanted to hold his hand while we walked but was afraid to make the first move, we'd held hands walking to school before, but that just happens when either one of us is anxious. TJ must've thought I was anxious as I feel him reach over and interlock his fingers with mine. Looking up at him I smile lightly before looking ahead of me. What I don't notice is TJ look down at our interlocked hands and smile.

Once we get to school we let go of each other's hands, I didn't want to but we were at school it was better if we did. We don't put space between us, mainly because we always walk closely anyway, no one would question it at this point, and I kind of didn't want to put any more space between us. Walking up to Buffy, Andi and Jonah in the hallway we greet them before hearing the warning bell for two minutes before the next lesson starts. Turning to TJ I tell him I'll see him at lunch, he hugs me, which was kind of a surprise as we don't usually hug at school. I hug him back before letting go, as he lets go he kisses me on the cheek then walks off, disappearing around the corner towards the year 10 building.
