The Many Faces Of Samuel
Chapter Two
"The Answer Is?"


	Samuel looked deeply into Randy's face trying to read the vague
expression on it. The expression on Randy's face looked as if someone was
holding a gun to his head. Inside Randy is tackling with the question he so
longed for Samuel to ask; but he is afraid of what Samuel may think. He
wants to say that he loves him more than a friend, but how would it change
their friendship?
	"Ah naw man. I don't like you like that...hehe..What are you
nuts?", said Randy.

 Randy was nearly shaking as he spoke those untrue words. "Hehe, that's pay
back!", said Samuel.

After he said that he was heading for the door when Randy grabbed him by
the arm.  "What now? You're acting pretty weird this morning", said Samuel.

"I know...it's just that...I...I..nevermind. We'll talk later after
school.", Randy said sadly.

 "Ok. I think we do need to talk man, because you seem worried about
something. If it was the joke I'm sorry" said Samuel.

"No, I just...we need to really talk about what's been on my mind lately",
said Randy.

"Sure, I love ya dude. You're my best bud", said Samuel.

They both smiled at each other and headed for the door. Randy looked back
at Samuel and said "So you love me huh?".

Samuel started shaking his head saying, "Don't you start that again".
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Randy's P.O.V.

	I cannot believe that today will be the day when I reveal my true
feelings for Sam. Every since I could remember, he has been the true love
of my life. But what if he does not except my love? Will he never speak to
me again? I've tried to tell myself that this is just a 24 hour thing, but
three years is a long time. I just wish that I was normal like the other
straight kids. I just wish that....

"Randall what is the square root of 64?", said the Algebra Teacher.

"Umm, 8 m'am.", said Randy.

"Good to see that even though you are not paying attention, that you still
remember the lesson. Stay after the bell. We need to talk."

"Sorry"

	I did not even realize that my deep thinking was so transparent.
It's only five minutes before lunch, so I hope Mrs.Harris makes her speech
quick. I cannot wait to be in the presence of Sam. He makes me feel so
alive, so loved. I hope he feels the same about me as I do him.
	Finally, the bell rings for lunch and the others kids run for the
door as if the room is on fire. Mrs.Harris approaches me with a look of
concern on her face.

"What's been on your mind lately? Why have you been so spaced out in my
classes lately?...Are you on drugs?"

"No. I just have alot on my mind lately."

"Do you want to talk about it?"

" I don't think you would understand. Not only you but I think this is a
problem that I have to deal with on my own. So can I go to lunch?"

"Sure, but if you need to talk...just let me know ok?"

"Yes I sure will. Thanx for offering though."

	After saying that I quickly grabbed my bookbag and ran towards the
cafeteria. As I approached the entrance, I see him looking like a lost
puppy with Jess at our usual table. This is the day when all my worries
will exit my mind. Hopefully.

Sam's P.O.V.

	Randy sure has been acting weird today, especially this morning. I
thought after making that joke, he would think of me as a freak. But there
was this look in his eyes after I asked that stupid question. To me it
looked as if he was thinking really deep about it. My god if he said that
he loved me more than just a friend I wouldn't know what to do. I mean we
have been friends since forever, and he just brings me to life. In the
classes we don't have together, I feel like a part of me is
missing. Sometimes it makes me depressed, not knowing if he feels the same
as I.
	Jessica said that Randy had to stay after class, because he was
spaced out during Algebra class. I wonder what that was all about.  I
wonder what is taking him so long to get to lunch. It's bad enough that I
don't have Algebra with him. Omigod, there he is staring at me through the
double doors. Hmmm... why is he staring at me like that?

"What are you looking at spaz?", said Jessica.

"Nothing", I said.

	Jess looks over her shoulders to see Randy now walking over towards
our table.

"Aww, the lovebirds were making goo goo eyes at each other", said Jessica.

"Shut up.", said Randy as he sat next to me.

	For a moment there was this silence that made me very
uncomfortable. Out of the corner of my eye, I could see Randy staring at me
as if he was searching for words. Not only did I notice the staring, but so
did Jessica. Nothing can get past her, because she plans to be a journalist
one day.

"Randy! Earth to Randy!", said Jessica.

"Yeah!?", said Randy.

"What's your problem today? You must really have the hots for
Sam....hehehehe", said Jessica

"No....I...I better go to the library for this umm....project I'm working
on for English", said a now blushing Randy.

"Don't go. Jess is just full of herself today that's all", I said.

"No...I mean..Yeah I know..I just need to find some books on Greek
Mythology. Umm I guess I'll see you after school?", said Randy.

"Sure, 3 o'clock sharp right?", I said smiling.

"Yeah...kewl...I'll see you then. Bye....Bye JESS!", said Randy.

"Bye loverboy..hahaha", said Jessica

	Randy left waving his arms as he heard Jessica still giggling to
her own jokes. He looked so helpless and so scared. I hope after school we
can talk about what's not only on his mind but mind. Me and Jess ate our
lunch talking about the usual things like we always do. Soon, the bell rang
signaling the end of lunch. I went to my Biology class, while Jess headed
for study hall. As I walked into the lab, I saw Randy staring at me from
across the hallway. What's up with him lately?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

	Finally, the bell rings at three signaling the end of school. Randy
anxiously waits for Sam to show up. He has been thinking about what to say
all day and nothing seemed right. After a few minutes, Sam sneaks behind
Randy and tapped him on the shoulder.  "Damnit Sam!...hehe...You scared
me.", said Randy.

"Well, that's not the only thing that I might do today that might scare
you", said Sam.

"Really?", said Randy softly.

"Really", said Sam.

"Well, what is it?", said Randy

	Sam looks around and says,"Well............."
