Chapter 2: Where there's smoke....
It's the second day at Alice's beach house and Ian hasn't enjoyed his stay so far, last night he was woken up by Jeremy and Vanessa making out in the hallway, then this morning he went for a run with Alice, something he detests with a passion.
He sighed, he put on his favorite floral shorts, a peach shirt and some flip flops, he grabbed his phone and walked outside to join his friends.
"Hey guys" he said sitting on the camping chair.
"Welcome back" Alice snickered.
"Dude, isn't that Krane?" Jeremy asked, they turned to face where he was looking at and there stood Jackson, he was talking to someone, probably his friend, Ian gulped just looking at him, how could he confess his feelings for someone who is totally his opposite.
"Go invite him over" Vanessa suggested.
"Yeah that sounds great, go Ian, go get your man" Alice supported, he looked at them with wide eyes, they couldn't be serio-
"We're serious,now go" Vanessa declared, he sighed as he stood up, he walked over to Jackson and his friend.
"I'm telling you, i can't wait to meet that person, their voice was something else, what if- shh shh he's coming"
He almost heard their whole conversation but he was spotted, oh well.
"H-hey Jackson" he said, why did he stutter? His face was warm and red in a second.
"Oh hey Ian, what's up" Jackson said smiling, seeing Ian was someone he didn't expect to see during summer break but he doesn't mind either way.
"Want to hang out?.....with my friends i mean....^sigh^.....do you want to hang out with us this evening?" He said, he's totally embarrassed. Jackson chuckled at his cuteness, he reminds him of a chubby hamster.
"Sure, he'll come, I'll make sure of it" his friend Ethan replied for him, Ian nodded his head and quickly walked back to his group.
"Thanks man" he said sheepishly, Ethan patted his shoulder
"Just take it as a favor"

They all gathered around the bonfire, Jeremy and Vanessa cuddled up tightly in a blanket, Ethan and Alice talking occasionally and Ian...well he was sitting alone, Jackson had to take a phone call few minutes ago.
"Okay I'm back" he announced sitting down.
"Okay great, lets play a game" Ethan proposed, Jackson looked at him.
"No" he refused,
"Aw come on, it won't hurt anyone, i suggest truth or dare" Alice said. Ian sighed, clearly this is going to be a cliche scene, might as well go along with it.
"Sure why not" he shrugged, they all cheered and Alice took the privilege to start.
"Okay, Jackson, truth or dare"
Jackson sighed, this was not a good idea.
"Dare"
