Zack's POV
I was hanging out with Jack, just the two of us. We're pretty close, but we used to be a lot closer. Now that Alex and Grace are spending so much time together, I've been trying to rebuild my friendship with Jack. Currently, that means crying on his couch eating chocolate and watching Kate and Leopold, one of our favorite movies.

Jack always knows how to cheer me up. I love the guy. I came crying to him about Grace again. I know he hates hearing it, but I have to get it out somehow. So we're having a girl's night. The movie turns to the rooftop scene, my favorite.

Jack and I are cuddling on the couch. It's comfy, sue me. At this point, Jack is whispering Hugh Jackman's lines in my ear, and it's kind of hot.

I mean what.

I did not just think that.

I am not staring into his eyes.

I did not just kiss him.

He did not just kiss me back.

I finally pull away, and we just sort of look at each other awkwardly.

"Look, Zack. I've kind of had feelings for you for a while........That's why it always bugged me to hear you talk about Grace. I'm sorry if I forced you to do anything you didn't want."

"Don't be sorry, Jack. I.....I think I'm just confused. But I do know I've had feelings for you before. I just wasn't sure what they meant."

"Really?"

"Really."

So we kiss a little more, before I finally have to go home. I leave a happy Jack behind, and smiling I drive home.
