Ethan and Kai had mastered the act of secrecy, their relationship blossoming in the shadows of their everyday lives. At school, they were inseparable, Sharing stolen glances and whispered jokes, but once shook day ended, they transformed into friends in the eyes of the world. Ethan would only visit kai's house when his parents were not around, their time together filled with laughter and stolen kisses, all while the fear if discovery loomed over them.
However, their delicate balance was disrupted by Anne, a girl who had cast her eyes on kai. No matter where he turned, she seemed to be there. Her laughter ringing in his eyes like an unwelcome echo. She sent gifts his way, each one more elaborate than the other, but Kai had no interest in her affection. Ethan watched with simmering jealousy as Anne's presence grew, her glances at Kai becoming bolder.
It all came to a head one day in the cafeteria, when Anne, emboldened by her feelings, declared her love for Kai in front of their classmates. Ethan's heart raced, fury igniting within him as Anne's words threaten to invade his territory. Kai, equally furious, shot back at Anne, his voice raising as he warned her for the last time that he wasn't interested. The cafeteria fell silent, all eyes on the scene unfolding before them. Anne's face flushed with humiliation, her confidence shaken. How could Kai reject her when she was the most hottest and sought after girl in school. Determined to find out if Kai had a girl in his life, she planned her next move.
As the day dragged on, Kai noticed that Ethan's mood had changed. Ethan grew distant, ignoring him after the confrontation with Anne. Concerned, he decided he couldn't let this go any longer. He grabbed Ethan's hand and led him to the nearest restroom, away from prying eyes.
"Ethan, what's wrong?" Kai asked, his voice low but urgent. He could see the tension etched across Ethan's face.
" I just....I can't stand her," Ethan admitted." She keeps trying to take you away from me, and it's driving me crazy."
Kai stepped closer, his heart racing. " Ethan you know it's you I care about. Anne doesn't mean anything to me."
Ethan looked into kai's eyes, searching for reassurance. " I just don't want to lose you," he confessed. " You're not going to lose me," Kai promised , reaching out to squeeze Ethan's hand," we'll get through this together."
As Kai kissed Ethan , the world outside faded away. The kiss was long and filled with reassurance. They were lost in their moments, completely unaware that the door wasn't locked properly .
Meanwhile, Joshua who had been lurking nearby, felt a surge of jealousy as he watched the scenes unfold. He had been trying to win Anne's attention for weeks but her attention was always focused on Kai. He was passing by and mistakenly saw them kissing . He was shocked but he quickly pulled out his phone, recording the intimate moment, a wicked grin spreading across his face as he thought this could change everything.
As the kiss ended, Ethan and Kai left the restroom , oblivious to the danger. Joshua seeing them coming out hid himself and after they left, he rushed to Anne, excitement bubbling within him.
" Anne, you won't believe what I just saw," he said trying to keep his cool. " What is it?" Anne asked, her curiosity piqued. " I have a great deal for you. I saw jai and Ethan together, in a way that would change how you see him."
Anne's eyes narrowed. " What do you mean?" Joshua smirked, I have proof but I need something in return." " What do you want?," her desperation showing . " Just a little fun at my place and I'll show you," he replied, his voice low dripping with manipulation.
Against her better judgement, Anne agreed, the promise of revenge blinding her to the consequences. After their encounter, Anne turned to him with a sharp eyes," where is the proof." Joshua looked at her and said," why don't we do it again?" Anne shit him a glare, clearly annoyed." No, I'm done." " Ok don't be so moody. I was just joking," he said as he brought out his phone and gave her the video.
Anne watched with shock." So Kai is gay?"she muttered. " So Ethan is the reason for Kai's attitude. I'll show Ethan who I am. Send that to my phone," she demanded. Joshua raised an eye brow curious," what do you want to do with it?" he asked but she shot him a glare," it's none of your business."
With a smirk he sent her the video, knowing this was the beginning of the chaos that would unfold.
