From Friend To Mate novel Chapter 7

After a while, he quickly grabbed his wallet and went downstairs where he saw a note on the table.

"I don't know what happened yesterday but I hope your feeling better. I made you some food and left it in the fridge. I'll be living in a hotel for a few days to be closer to work. Theres some boring important things going on. Look after yourself and I love you. ok? mum"

Felix chuckled to himself. The fact his mum always wrote questions on her notes like he could answer and she'd hear was quite funny to him.

"ok, mum" Felix said to himself.

He took out his phone and looks at the time it was around 5:30 and he was meant to meet Max at the cinema around 6:00.

Obviously Max offered to pick him up however felix was afraid that if the date went bad then it would be unsettling because Max would know where he lived.

Felix grabbed his house keys before leaving the house. He walked all the way to the cinema and stood next to the huge building awaiting Max. he seemd to be a bit early so it was understandable that he took a while. He waited and waited until finally Max showed up at around 6:30.

"Sorry. Sorry I'm late felix I was held up. I'll make it up to you I promise. "

By this time felix was sitting on the ground. Max was 30 minutes late however, this was his first date so he didn't know what to expect. He smiled and nodded at Max, accepting his apology.

They went into the movie and throughout the whole time they enjoyed themselves. Felix didn't notice it but he totally forgot everything that was previously causing him stress and was genuinely happy with Max this was exactly what he needed.

Nothing else could be better and he mentally gave himself a pat on the back. As another funny scene played across the screen and he let out a chuckle.

Max really was sorry for being late and treated felix like he was a king. It felt good. Felix have never been in the presence of another man like this before. He only ever hung out with Jason. It felt good to be around different people.

During his date with Max he came to realization that he just preferred men.

He was gay.

Before he was always a bit confused and didn't know if he was in the middle or not but now he seemed to completely accept the fact he was gay.

The movie eventually finished and the two boys got up to leave the cinema.

However just as felix was about to go his own way Max grabbed his hands pulling him back. Felix and his small figure stumbled towards max leaning against his front. He laughed before looking up at him.

The two carried on their small talk while eating and forming a beautiful relationship.

After the date,they separated ways after bidding each other goodbye. Felix was quite tired it's been so long since he's been out like that. He planned to completely relax the second he reached his house.

He finally got to his door. Walking in he noticed the lights were on and mentally face palmed himself.

All that electricity. Gone.

After kicking his shoes off he walked straight into his room ready to collapse on the bed. But froze the second he entered the chamber.

There, sitting,waiting for him, with a furious expression was Jason.

The entire room was completely silent. Nobody said anything and just by the way he was, Felix could clearly tell that Jason was absolutely fuming. The flames rolling off his back, were almost visible.

Jason couldn't explain what he was feeling. He felt angry and livid that Felix completely ignored his calls. At first he thought something was wrong and after some thorough research came to find out he was out with someone else while he was helplessly caling him.
