billy has never beat the mean angry stereotypical mad at the world cruel boy stereotype, that is until he met you. the sweet caring cute but quiet maybe even nerdy boy. you would always stay out the way,billy had never even heard of your name before you guys started dating. but now he couldn’t even imagine a day without you,you even helped him realize his attraction to men which is something he wouldn’t admit in a million years! you were sweet,caring,and nerdy in which he loved how nerdy you were he would listen to you rant about shit thats considered nerdy to him for hourssss!!! you were also completely unbothered by his usual attitude knowing how to make him happy. everything about you that made u you,you made him obsessively protective. billy would notice the little things about you,how you always smiled, never had a bad day, always cheerful and excited by nerdy things and the way you would listen to him and comfort him when he rants about neil or something serious. but he never really thought to think of your friends till this specific day……

it hit billy like a stab to chest. your bitch ass friend steve always getting in the way,he ruined you and billys hallway time per usual by gliding his way into your space so causally like normal. steve was grinning and staring you down while leaning up against the lockers watching you as you helped him,by showing him how to fix something with his locker. he a made joke and you started to laugh like you always did,billys stomach twisted. and it wasn’t just annoyance,it was something heavier like pure hatred…. something that he hadn’t let himself feel before. billy loved you and you were aware of this and so was he, but the way steve looked at you? the way you laughed effortlessly at his joke like he mattered? billy realized that he didn’t want you doing that with anyone else.
not steve. not anyone. just him. only him.
the bell rings and everyone is in class now, you and billy share two class periods together your third period and fifth. with this being your fifth you were excited to see your boyfriend,you were excited to sit next to him and rant about whatever and not caring what everyone else thought just him. the feeling should be mutual right? billy walks into to class,and you get ready to smile but as he walks in he walks right past you and your extra seat and decides to sit on the further right of the class. your heart stops. “billy?” you say as no response comes from him. he could hear you clear as day on the other side of the classroom but decided to ignore you. for the rest of class. you start to extremely overthink to why billy would do that to you. if anything he would tell you why he did that right? or explain how he is feeling, not just completely ignore you and walk the other way. you could feel every second dragging, did he see you helping steve and hate it…? was he upset with you? did he not like you anymore? are you losing him? are you not good enough? your hands fidget with your pencil, your mind racing with all the “what-ifs?”
billy on the other hand across the room leg bounces back and fourth. his jaw tight, extremely clenched as so was his fists under his desk. fighting the urge to just storm over to you and kiss and hug you while letting you know he’ll never let anyone get in between you guys. he hated that he felt this way. he hates that he’s jealous, he hates that he’s letting it show, and he hates the fact that he’s acting like a “fag” or like a “bitch” as neil would say. he just hated that he couldn’t tell or talk to you about how felt yet.
as class ended you decided to go up to billy, everyone grabbing their stuff and walking out you decided to go up to billy and nudge him. “hey can we talk?” you whispered. billy doesn’t even glance at you. from your calm tone, and shakey hands he ignores it. all of it. as he walks away you think to yourself “what did i do wrong?” your stomach twists. but you had to get over it as it was the end of the school day and you still needed a ride home from billy. that would never change right? he would never leave you at school to walk home alone at that. as you hurry to your locker and pack your stuff you rush outside. billys car? no where to be found. you thought to yourself “what the fuck?”. you had no other choice but to walk home, with you thinking steve was the reasoning for all of this you decided to avoid him. so that meant no asking him for ride home… your only option was to walk. a twenty minute walk from school to home shouldn’t be that bad right? and that’s exactly what you did. no boyfriend, no ride home, no billy, and no steve. just you and your books.
as you got home you were greeted by your gorgeous cat and your racing thoughts of what you could have done to your boyfriend to make him leave you at school,and avoid you. you couldn’t possibly done anything that wrong right? i mean the most you could have done was laugh at steve, hes a funny guy what can you say! i mean sure he is cute but you only have eyes for billy. and billy only, you thought to yourself as you slid down your wall.
you decided to relax,do homework,and take a shower and try to free yourself from your negative thoughts but you couldn’t seem to stop overthinking and thats when you decided to call billy. as you dialed his number that you remember by heart of course it rang. and it rang and rang and rang. no answer. three calls and no answer. this made your heart extremely heavy and you decided to get some rest after that. deciding to confront billy at school in the morning.
and confronting billy was exactly what the fuck you did. you saw him in the hallway during second hour, yanked his arm and dragging him to the bathroom and you asked him. “ why are you avoiding me billy? what the hell is going on ? you’ve never done this to me before?! i hate this side of you, can you talk to me now please?”. billy now confronted had no choice to respond. “ i-i fuck- i don’t know how to say this without sounding like an idiot but - “ he says while running his hands through his hair. “seeing you with him yesterday … it fucked with me. seeing him- anyone at that making you laugh like that made me feel something i’ve never felt before. i couldn’t stop thinking about the shit, i hate that i got jealous, i hate feeling this way. i’ve never felt this way towards you before , you know ? but i cant lie to you, i cant lie to myself or you.” “ i love you y/n, i really do,your so much better than any other random chick that i’ve made out with at a party. i love you way too much to just ignore it…. and i dont ever want to see you with anyone else like that again? it hurt me. you’re mine,only mine.your like my little magnet jeez - he chuckled to himself, i cant get enough of you”. billy saying all of that made your heart melt. all this over steve? you were so confused but understandable like you always were. “billy” you say, “geez do you even hear yourself? your acting like ill leave you over steve??- over anyone at that?? your my boyfriend billy. i’m yours. a small laugh escapes you through the tension. god…. billy i love you more” you say softly as you always did.
and just like that billy and you kissed, warm and heartfelt. late to second hour of course… but it was worth it. you were his little magnet and so was he.
the end.
