A Fine Line

A FINE LINE

At school Tristan was no better then yesterday. Seeing Joey seemed to make his mood worsen—if that was even possible. I did all I could to cheer him up, but everything was met with a blank stare and somber expression.

Tristan really did love Joey…

Joey seemed to go around with guilt on his face, he avoided eye contact with Tristan, trying to stay clear of him which made Tristan feel even worse.

At lunch I grabbed my food, hoping it would be the perfect opportunity to cheer him up. As I approached the table I saw Tristan get up, slamming his hands on the table.

“He said he was in love with someone else and he couldn’t take lying to me any longer! He was FUCKING CHEATING ON ME! He-he doesn’t love me anymore!” He screamed.

I quickened my pace, ready to come to him when he froze. I looked to where Tristan’s gaze had stopped.

Joey had entered the cafeteria.

“Tris-“ I barely got out before he mumbled something about going to the bathroom and quickly leaving.

I watched as he left, Joey looking on guilt ridden…as he should be. Fucking asshole. I set my lunch down and followed Tristan into the bathroom.

“Tristan?” I stepped into the stall, Tristan was standing against the wall, his arms crossed, staring down at the floor.

“Why does it have to be like this?” He spoke, keeping his eyes downcast.

I shrugged, unsure of what to say. “I don’t know. Some people just grow apart I guess.”

“Yeah…” He whispered, sniffing.

“Tristan? I think…” I sighed. “I think that Joey is an ass and that you can do better than him!” I quickly spluttered out.

Tristan slowly looked up, smiling just a little. “You’re just saying that.”

“It’s true!” I quickly added. “Any guy would be lucky to have you!” I quickly shut my mouth, my eyes wide at what I had said. That’s the last thing I needed was for him to know I was in love with him.

He looked at me a moment, not saying anything. I panicked, fumbling for something to say to make my statement sound any less cheesy or love-stricken.

“I mean…you know, if you weren’t so ugly!” I joked, making him smile.

“Thanks.” He said.

“Come on, let’s get out of the smelly bathroom.” I pulled him after me but was stopped as the door swung open, Joey walking in. The two froze staring at each other, my eyes traveled between them, keeping silent.

“Can I talk to you?” Joey whispered.

“Um…yeah.” Tristan shrugged, shoving his hands deep in his pockets.

“I guess…I’ll…leave then.” I said, noticing my words going unnoticed as I left.

I stood outside, waiting for them to emerge, I soon heard muffled shouting, straining to hear what was being said but unable to. The bell rang, everyone rushing out of the cafeteria, except Seto who kept gazing at the door until he noticed me, at which point he quickly shuffled out.

I kept waiting…and waiting, their shouting becoming louder until Tristan was screaming at the top of his lungs. I’d had enough and went in to find Tristan curled up on the floor, Joey looming over him, trying to calm him.

I rushed to him, kneeling beside him and shoving Joey out of my way.

“Tristan I—“ Joey began. I looked up at him, shaking my head.

“Just go.” I pleaded. He retreated, throwing his hands up in defeat before he left.

“I’m sorry.” He whispered, closing the door.

“Tristan? Are you okay?”

“It’s over…I’m over…I should just kill myself.” He rasped.

“Tristan! Don’t say that…don’t ever say that.” I pleaded, holding him. He let out a muffled cry, wrapping his arms tightly around me, refusing to let go. My heart sped as he held me tightly, burying his face in the nape of my neck.

“I love you Duke. Thank you.” He whispered. I knew I was blushing, smiling like an idiot, knew that he didn’t really love me, not the way I loved him. But I didn’t care, I’d have given anything to hear those words.

AN: HAPPY EASTER! Also...I'm so pleased with the positive response I've gotten for this. I hope I can continue to please you all! :)
