Dreams Chapter 2: The Things People Do For Love
I sat for a moment thinking about what Will had said. Guess dreams don't come true … Ohh well … I mean … What hope did I have to get with Will anyways? He's a big shot lawyer … I'm just … I'm just Jack! I know Will loves me … Just not in the way I want him to. I was pulled out of my thoughts by Will's voice, "Jack, are you sure you're okay …?"
I nodded, "I'd feel a lot better if you'd take me to lunch though …" I said with a slight smirk on my face.
"Jack … I already told you no … I have work … But not only that, but I also have a date!" I could hear a slight bit of excitement creep into his voice. Excitement however, was far from what I felt. I felt my heart drop to my stomach as I looked Will in the eyes.
"What …?" I asked. I could tell that Will probably heard the disappointment in my question.
"I have a date, Jack. Is that so hard for you to believe?" he asked looking me straight in the eye.
Yes, in fact it is. Why do you have a date? Why is the date not me? … Wow … Wait a second … Why do you care, Jack? For once just be happy for Will. No matter how jealous you are, just be happy for your best friend. Don't be so selfish!
"Uhh …" I stammered, "No, Will … It's great that you have a date!" I said not even meaning it. I could see Will's face light up and that gorgeous smile come on his face. I couldn't help but smile too.
I can't help myself when Will's around … His smile … His humor … Just … Everything about him makes me weak at the knees. I love everything about him. Well … Almost everything about him. Not only does he have the most adorable personality … But he's also drop dead gorgeous! His dark brown hair … Chocolate brown eyes … Deep dark brown.
"I have to go now, Jack," Will said as he gathered up his stuff.
"Mmhh … Have fun …" I muttered as I fiddled with several things on the desk. I could feel his eyes on me from behind but I thought nothing else of it, I was still lost in thought.
"That means you have to leave now," he said as he slightly rolled his eyes at me in a kidding way.
I huffed slightly and headed out the door, "See you later …" I said as I walked down the hallway and into the streets. I stopped for a minute thinking.
I should follow Will … You know, just to see this guy. See if he and Will should be together. After all, I do know how terrible Will's taste in men are. Wait … No, Jack! No messing in Will's relationships. He's a grown man … He can handle himself … But he does have bad taste … UGH! Why am I arguing with MYSELF? …
So off I headed … Down the New York streets after Will Truman.
(Part 2a)
Fifteen minutes later I crouched behind a bush near the coffee shop and watched as Will looked nervously at his watch, obviously waiting for his date to arrive. Damn, this bush is uncomfortable … The things people do for love! I thought as I readjusted myself in the bush. In the next second a woman walked right by me and looked straight into my hiding spot. Her eyes got wide and she looked at me like I was crazy.
"What?" I asked, "Have you never seen a guy hide in a bush?" I said half sarcastically in a whisper. The woman just shook her head and turned around to leave.
I smirked slightly and kept waiting. Ohh boy … I thought as I felt a sneeze coming on. I covered my nose really fast and tried to hold it in … It was just no use though … Out came the sneeze, and loud as could be! I saw Will's head jerk around and look. Luckily he never glanced into the bush though. If he had … I'd be in trouble … I could just hear Will's voice now telling me to stay out of his affairs. As if he'd be the hurt party in this … I'm the one in the bush! I pondered to myself.
I tried to remain quiet for the next couple of minutes as I waited. And within a couple of minutes my wait paid off! I saw a tall blonde haired man walk up and glance in Will's direction.
"Ray!" Will said as he stood up and led the man to his table, "It's nice to see you again!"
"It's nice to see you again too, Will," the man said as a smile appeared on his face that caused his eyes to light up.
The two men continued to talk as I watched them. Ray isn't bad looking … I thought as I looked him over. He's not me … But he's not bad either! He still must go … He can't take my best friend from me …
"You look great, Ray," Will said as he took a drink out of his cup.
Well, well, doesn't everyone love Raymond! Or at least Will does … Why, I'm not sure though … Sure, the man's cute … But what's so special about him? Where did they meet? And why in the hell did Will ask him out? Thoughts shot through my head as I watched, jealously coursing though me.
"I haven't seen you since we meet at the gym!" Ray exclaimed as he lifted the cup to his mouth.
Ahh! The gym … The guy must work out … Speaking of the gym … I should probably go back, not that I need it really … I don't need to work out … Just look at me! … My thoughts drifted back and forth. When was the last time I hit the gym? …A couple of weeks ago I think ... Not too long after my date with Sean ... Or was it Sam? ... Steven maybe? ... No! ... It was Sam ... Yeah, Sam ... Damn, he was fine! ... Wait! Concentrate, Jack! Damn you, ADD!
For the next ten minutes or so I watched them … And waited. Finally I saw both Will and Ray stand up to leave.
"So, you'll call me right, Will?" Ray asked.
"I sure will," Will said as he left a couple of bucks on the table for a tip, "I'll call you SOON," He commented with a smile.
"Alright," Ray said, "Until next time …" Ray trailed off as he pressed his lips to Will's for a kiss.
My eyes got huge and I nearly fell over backwards. That was NOT supposed to happen! I pondered to myself as many other angry thoughts rushed through my head. I had had enough! In the next moment I found myself jumping from the large bush and right in front of Will and Ray.
(That's it for now! Please R&R!)
