stud muffin’s mind was only on one thing at the moment - he totally messed up, why did he have to think it would be the right time to confess, normally he would feel happy to look after Jaret with Jake right now but now he isn’t feeling ok.
he could only look down as he could imagine Jake calling him multiple times but he looks around to see that he is alone.
five minutes ago
stud muffin and Jake were in the boy’s bedroom looking after Jaret, they had find the baby while waiting for a challenge to begin and they had been keeping it a secret from the other contestants, at first it was such hard work keeping the baby a secret but they managed to get over it.
”there you go little jaret, now you are comfortable and tucked in for a nap” stud muffin said while acting like a “dad”
Jake could only look at him while there is something he wants to ask him?, but it would ruin their friendship..would it?
”good job Stuart! He is finally asleep” Jake smiled with joy
”thanks, but I would like to be addressed as stud muffin” the gamer said with no hard feelings
“Oh my apologises, I’m just glad I survived the tiebreaker, that moment was so scary, and I didn’t flop!” Jake said with a gleaming face
stud muffin smiles and walks to the big brunette boy
”I know man! I’m sure proud of you and I am sure you are going to do so well!” The gamer congrats, but then he gets a bit suspicious of a certain someone.
But I am wondering how Liana ended up with that idol, it’s makes no sense” stud muffin replied.
”I would not worry about it so much since 63% of studies shows that worrying causes cancer.” Jake spoke which only made stuf muffin confused.
”ok then, not how how I would fight that logic” stud muffin said, their conversation was ruined by Jaret crying again in tears which startled the two males.
"Oh No! he is crying again! What should we do now?" Jake asks while he was looking at little Jaret crying, he has not taken care of a little child so this was a first for him.
luckily stud muffin managed to solve everything by making the baby quiet by reassuring him, which made the two glad that they won't have to pull up with the baby's cries.
"it is ok jaret! papa stud muffin got you now..shhh, it is going to be ok" stud muffin said as he gently take care of Jaret, meanwhile Jake was watching the gamer and he had a question for him.
at first he did not want to ask him that question but he had to..he was starting to get some vibes of him...that vibe was that stud muffin might be gay...
"Hey stud muffin, can I ask you a question?" Jake said as he starts to walk slowly toward him, stud muffin gently puts the baby down and looks up to see jake who was acting a bit nervous
”oh sure, is it about tips how to look after a baby, because I could be such good help on that” stud muffin smiled waiting for a answer.
”no..it’s not that, look..please don’t take my words very seriously but..are you…gay?” Jake said struggling to say the word “gay”
Jake was worried, he was going to expect stud muffin to say something in disgust but that didn’t happen, instead he smiles at Jake
“am I gay…am I really gay..hahahaha!” Stud muffin said while laughing for a while until he stops and looks to see Jake.
”well…to be honest I don’t know to be honestly..I think I a little bi-curious if you know what I mean” stud muffin said before sticking a frown in his face.
Yeah, it’s true..stud muffin was indeed bi-curious
“ah I see..well okay, I don’t care if you are or not, it’s just..I thought you are because from the whole parenting vibes you give out.” Jake said continuing about the “gay” chat
“Hey, it’s ok, I get it, I’m actually surprised it took you so long to ask me this question to be honest..” stud muffin said, he was going to say something else hit then he stops
could Jake..possible like him back?
stud muffin and Jake’s bond had been getting greater each day, they have each other’s backs and they have always stayed loyal..and stuf muffin in the other hand really likes Jake, not as in a close friendly way..
but more of a romantic way, he was nervous about talking this to Jake because he did not know how would he take the fact that guy is crushing on him
”Jake, there is something I want to tell you..I have been dropping hints that I like you..” stud muffin said without stopping what he want to say.
Jake was quite suprised and the room was quiet for 30 seconds that was until Jake spoke it.
”you like me?..as in..boyfriend” Jake questions the bi-curious lad.
“Well of course I do..I thought you might be into guys..well or least been curious too..are you..” stud muffin said while his heart beat.
jake loves me right..he must have love me..please don’t make my heart break..please I beg you Jake…
“Well…I’m straight” Jake spoke, stud muffin and Jake stares at each other with the both making this awkward for them.
”well…this is very awkward indeed” stud muffin spoke out, he was in the verge of letting it out…he thought his hope spot was going to happen..oh boy he thought wrong.
“Yeah..it was indeed” Jake said while looking at stud muffin, Jake’s mind seems say that he was glad stud muffin was taking this well..but he thought wrong.
stud muffin started to have tears running down this face, he was not in a good mood.
”well, i am gonna go now, take care of the baby please..and I will see you at the challenge..” stud muffin said with a sad tone.
jake started to feel bad for stud muffin, Jake regrets asking stud muffin what was his sexuality.
”wait don’t go..I-“ Jake said as he was trying to comfort stud muffin but it was no use as the gamer started to go for the door with tears.
”Jake, please think of this as a chance to work solo when the future challenges come..” stud muffin said before he walks to the door and opens it before closing it.
”Stuart!…” Jake called out but it didn’t work, he just sat on the bed feeling like a idiot
meanwhile stud muffin was at the confessional room crying, it was very childish of him to cry but who cares..he question why did he had to feel attraction from both genders.
he broke down with tears and he knew he had to get over the fact that his happy romantic ending with Jake will no longer be true, little did he know was that Jake used the confessional room to apologise for hurting stud muffin’s feelings.
stud muffin could do nothing but just wipe the tears and forget about the fact he likes Jake.
