~Chapter 1~



That's how it really was. The first time I laid my eyes on Drew I instantly fell in love with him. It's been three years since I first saw him, but he never really noticed me. Today was the day that I, Garrett, would make him notice me.
I walked up to him with a smile on my face. I had no idea why I was doing this; I was the shy one here. Drew was standing in the corner talking to one of his friends. I waited till the friend left to go up to him. When I got to him he looked down at me. He was at least a foot taller than me.
Drew was in the same grade as me, 11th. He had short black hair that covered his eyes most of the time. I couldn't complain though, for if you didn't know us you'd think we were twins. He was your average emo and so was I.
"Hey Garrett," he said. I was startled. This might sound a little stupid, but I was surprised that he knew my name.
"Hey," I replied, "I was wondering if you would like to come over tonight. I'm throwing a party and a couple of guys are coming over."
"I'd love to come over. When is it?" he asked.
"Starts at seven," I said. I gave him so other information about the party, like who’s coming and my address.
"Great I'll see you then," he smiled at me and I smiled at him in return.

Drew started to walk down the hallway as the bell rang. I was too excited to notice. I just stood there and watched him walk down the hallway. Then something hit me, I had to get to class! I ran through the hallways until I reached English class. As soon as I stepped foot into the classroom the bell rang. The teacher, Mr. Rallen, gave me a mean look. I quietly took my seat and pulled out my stuff.

~Chapter 2~



Seven soon rolled around and there was a knock on the door. I answered it. It was a couple of the guys I asked to come and Drew. He had a big smile on his face when he saw me and I waved to him. After everyone had arrived, which was like, one other person. I got out the snacks and other stuff. I put on music to listen to but I was so concentrated on the fact that Drew was here.
"So what now?" someone asked, I think it was my friend Conner.
I turned in the general direction that the sound came from. "I don't know. Anyone got any ideas?" I asked.
Almost every one shook their head no except for Drew who made one of the most interesting suggestions. "How about truth or dare? I know it will be weird but that will make it more fun."
We all agreed to play and I showed everyone to the living room and we sat on the floor.
"Who's first?" I asked.
"How about you since you asked." Drew replied with a smirk on his face.
"Ok, ask away." said I.
My other friend, Jack, decided to ask the questions. "Truth or dare?" he asked me.
"Um, dare," I didn't exactly know what was going to happen but I was feeling a little adventurous today.
We sat there in silence for a few moments while Jack thought up a dare. Finally he spoke. "I dare you to go in the closet with Drew for five minutes. Alone."
By now my insides were screaming, and not in a good way. I started panicking but only in the inside. I didn't want everyone to think I was afraid to do it, so I agreed to do it. Oh god, what have I gotten myself into this time?
Jake and Conner literally shoved Drew and I into the closet and locked it behind us.
"So, Garrett, what now?" he asked me.
I didn't exactly know what was running through my head at the time because all of a sudden I blurted out, "I like you!" Oh shit, why the hell did I say that? What the hell was I thinking? Drew looked at me with a blank stare in silence. "I'm sorry, I shouldn’t have blurted that ou-" Before I could say anymore, Drew had me in his grip and his lips were glued to mine.
When he broke the kiss he looked down at me and smiled. "I guess that makes us even." He gave a small laugh.
"Wait, what?" I didn't understand this. Did he just admit to liking me? Oh my god he did!
"It's ok, I've liked you since the first day I saw you." he said. It was like he was me, for it was the same way with me. I still remember that day; I mean the day that we first met.
It was a nice summer day, the first day of school to be exact. I was sitting in homeroom and there he was, alone, sitting in the back next to me. He must have been a new student, for I’ve never seen him before. I've gone to the same school since elementary so I've pretty much known everyone that's been through here. He looked over at me with his blue eyes, which were a shade lighter than mine. His eyes sort of reminded me of the ocean they were so blue. He didn't say anything; instead he quickly turned his head and looked back down at his desk. I studied him for a moment. His short black hair covered his face. His black and white t shirt seemed to fight him like a loose glove. He was wearing black skinny jeans and a pair of black converse. I hate to admit it but he was… cute. He looked back up at me, now was my chance.
"I'm Garrett, what's your name?" I said quietly.
He didn't say anything at first; instead he just sat there in silence. Then he finally spoke. "Drew."
"Are you new here?" I asked. He nodded his head. "Well welcome to hell!" I laughed, he just smile.
We didn't really talk much after that.

~Chapter 3~



"So now that we covered that, what now?" I asked him. We had a couple more minutes at least to spend in the closet. I found it quite hysterical that we came out of the closet in the closet. Oh the irony.
He didn’t say anything, he just shrugged his shoulders. I sat on the floor with my back against the wall and Drew sat next to me. "I guess we just wait. They did lock us in here." he said.
I looked over at him, but didn't say anything. I'd be lying if I said this was one of the worst days of my life, that I didn’t like him, and that I wish this time together would end. The truth was I did like him and I didn't want this time to end together. I wondered for a moment if we should tell the others, they will be asking what we did. I don't know if we will lie or tell the truth.
"So what are we going to tell them?" I asked Drew.
"I have no idea," he replied putting emphasis on the word 'no'.
I laughed a little and my hand found his. He held my hand tightly and I smiled. It felt good to be close to him.
"Any ideas what we are going to do for the next couple minutes?"
He didn't answer me. At first I didn't think he heard me, but he must of. One second I was about to say something and the next we were kissing. Without stopping, Drew pulled me onto his lap so that I was facing him. His lips were warm and soft. They tasted a bit like the soda he was drinking earlier.
Suddenly I heard the lock on the door turn. I climbed off of Drew's lap and sat next to him, just in time too. The door flew open almost hitting me, but Drew caught it before it did. He stood up and extended his arm towards me. "Coming?" he asked. I nodded and grabbed a hold of his hand. He helped me up.
Explaining to Conner and Jack about what happened in the closet was one of the most difficult things ever! Drew and I decided to lie about what happened but when we went to tell, and remember we had no planning before this, it was a disaster. Drew told one story and I told another. Eventually are stories mashed together and eventually made a little sense, but it only took us for what felt like forever to get it right.

~Chapter 4~



"Bye!" I yelled out the door as Conner and Jack left. Drew decided to stay with me and help me clean up. Yeah I kind of doubt we're going to get much done. I shut the door behind them and turned to Drew. He wrapped his arms around me face and pulled me closer to him. He caught me off guard and if he hadn’t been holding me I might have fallen. I wrapped my arms around his neck and looked
