(Jack's P.O.V.)

School's been over for about twenty minutes now. I'm just hanging out in the math classroom, sitting at my desk, looking out the window like usual. I would hang out with Mark, but he's working, and I would hang out with Bob, Wade and Ken, but we haven't spoken since yesterday morning. 

"Here he is." Speak of the devils. I sigh, turning. Walking into the classroom is Bob, Ken and Wade, all with slight smiles on their faces. I don't bother smiling. 

"What's up?" I ask, looking out the window. 

"Nothing much." Wade says. I nod. 

"You remember Brittany?" Ken asks. I frown, looking at the three. 

"My ex? Yeah. Why?" I ask. Bob chuckles. 

"She's back in school man." He says. I shrug. 

"So?" I ask. Bob shrugs back. 

"We thought you may want to know." Wade says. I chuckle, smirking a bit. 

"We dated for two months then I broke it off a month ago because she's a total bitch, why would I care?" I ask. Brittany and I met over summer, we dated for about two months, maybe two and a half, and then near the beginning of school I broke it off. Mainly because, I actually gave into the fact that I'm gay, but also because she's a complete and total bitch. 

"Okay, so this small talk thing isn't gonna work, we're just gonna say what we want to say." Ken chuckles. I stare at them expectantly. And then... 

"Jack we know you like Mark." Bob says simply. I stare at them with wide eyes and an open mouth. I try to form words but I just stutter. 

"I...W...I...D...Huh?" I ask, looking at them. Wade chuckles. 

"Taken from your reaction, I'm gonna say it's a yes." He says. I shake my head a bit. 

"How?" Is all I ask. Ken nods slowly. 

"Well, you don't tell us a lot Jack, but you aren't particularly hard to read if the person reading is someone who hangs out with you a lot. We picked up on a lot of patterns and irregularities so after lots and lots of observation, thinking, and discussions at Bob's house after school, we finally concluded that you are gay and like Mark." He says. I sigh, closing my eyes. They found out. They fricken found out. Of course they did... I can't believe it... I'm so screwed. 

"You're probably thinking how bad of a position you're in now, aren't you?" Wade asks. I nod. No need to keep anything anymore. "Don't be." He finishes. I open my eyes and look at them with a confused expression. 

"What do you mean?" I ask. Bob smiles. 

"Jack we haven't been completely truthful ourselves." He says. I frown a bit, more confused then before. What are they talking about? Bob raises his hand a bit. "Hi, I'm pansexual." He says. Ken nods. 

"I'm asexual." He says. Wade smiles. 

"And I'm bi." He says. I just stare at the three. Huh. Not what I expected. Wait... 

"Then why did you follow me and bully Mark?" I ask. Wade nods. 

"That's a little more tricky. We had multiple reasons, most of which are probably similar to yours. Jealousy, reputation, backstory, didn't really matter." He says. I nod, understanding more. But still. I did not expect that. Like, at all. 

"We regret everything we did." Ken says. I nod. 

"Me too." I chuckle. I sigh softly. God, Mark and I are gonna have one heck of a discussion later. "I'm sorry." I say then. The three stare at me with shocked expressions. 

"What?" Bob asks. I look up at the three, noticing that I was looking down. 

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry that I was so... Stupid and childish. And that I didn't tell you anything. I'm sorry I made you feel... Scared to tell me who you really were. I'm just sorry." I say. I'm getting more and more used to this whole apologizing thing, it's happening a lot lately. But it feels good, getting it off my chest. It's nice. Bob chuckles. 

"Jack, it's okay. We forgive you." He says. I smile. 

"Thank you." I say it quiet enough I don't know if they heard me. Wade nods. 

"Thank you." He says and with that the three walk out of the room, leaving just the window, my thoughts and I. I shake my head, looking out the window again. God... Has this been one heck of an afternoon so far or what?
