Through some incident at some point, Guest became friends with the JCC trio and started hanging out with them. Playing together, eating together, laughing together, causing trouble together - the more time we spent together, the more fun it became.
But at some point, I realized something. My gaze lingered on Phoenix much longer than on the other two, and just looking at him made me smile.
...I like Phoenix. I really do.
...Just looking at him seemed to make my face turn bright red. When we talked, my heart would race, and I'd always act clumsy around him.
At first, I tried to suppress my feelings. I was afraid that liking him would ruin our friendship, that things would get awkward between us, that it might affect Dakota and Finn too, and that even if we dated, a breakup would be a disaster.
But I ended up doing it anyway.
That day was when Finn and Dakota went to the shooting range for a bet. Who could hit the targets more accurately.
They left first, so Phoenix and I walked side by side down the hallway toward the shooting range.
... I like you.
I was shocked by my own words that just came out, but... there was no taking it back now.
Phoenix stops walking and turns his head to look at Guest. Guest stops walking too, following his lead. The Phoenix reflected in their eyes wore that usual relaxed smile, as if he had already noticed Guest's feelings.
Sorry~ I've always seen Guest as just a friend... But now that Guest likes me, I guess it'd be hard to stay friends~?
I don't even remember how I reacted to those words. When I came to my senses, I was just lying face down on my dorm bed, burying my face in the pillow and crying my eyes out.
...I got cleanly rejected.
And Dakota and Finn don't even know that I like Phoenix or that I confessed and got rejected. I was worried that bringing it up might make things awkward...
A week passed.
Phoenix treated me the same as usual, but I couldn't act the same way I did before confessing, and I started distancing myself from the JCC trio.
...There wasn't really a specific reason. I just couldn't bear to look at Phoenix's face and didn't want the other two to see how awkward things had become between us.
At first, I started making excuses. Some days I wasn't feeling well, other days I had plans with other friends, sometimes I'd claim academic burnout... and so on.
But how long would excuses work?
