"All done." Karl smiled as he shut off his phone and put it in his front pocket of his jeans.

10 minutes past by and then Sapnap decided it was time for him and Karl to return home.
"Karl we should head back to my house."
"Ok!" Karl smiled in response.

All three boys stood up and Sap began walking back, but looked back when he realised the other two boys weren't following him.
"Something wrong?" He asked the two,
"No. Just give us a minute please." Alex replied.
"Just wait for me by your car ok?" Karl smiled. Sapnap nodded and continued to walk down the overgrown path. Or so the other two boys thought...

Karl and Alex were finally alone to talk privately.
"What the fuck are you doing?" Alex said, folding his arms.
"He's my friend. Friends have sleepovers." Karl said, trying to justify his agreement to sleep round Sapnap's house for two nights in a row.
"And what about your grandmother? You don't even know your grandmother Karl! Why are you feeding Sapnap with lies?" Alex asked his friend.

Karl felt a sudden wave of guilt flow over his body. "I-I... I'm embarrassed. I want him to like me, he will hate me if he knows the truth about me."

Suddenly, a nearby bush next to the boys began to rustle slightly.

Sapnap's POV:

Why did I ease drop on their conversation? I don't know. I just guess I just wanted to see if there was anything being said about me. But, instead I learn that Karl had been lying to me this whole time. But what was he lying about?

I accidentally fell slightly, my foot slipped and snapped a twig which was hold a bush together. Once the twig snapped, the bush made a loud rustling noise.

I had been caught.

I had to run, I didn't want Karl or Alex to know I was listening to their conversation. I quickly took a few steps back and began to run to my car. I swung open the door and sat in the car, hands on the stirring wheel, acting like nothing had happened.

But I wanted to know what Karl was lying to me about. I decided to ask him when we got back to my house.

Third Person POV:

Karl and Alex shot their heads behind them and looked around, confused because of the random rustling noises. The boys both shrugged it off and continued their conversation.
"All I'm saying is, don't dig yourself into an even bigger hole. You don't want Sapnap to think of you as a liar." Alex said, hugging his friend out of comfort.
"I understand." Karl said, hugging Alex.

The boys said goodbye to eachother and Karl then walked over to Sapnap's car. He opened the passengers door and sat in the car.
"Hey, sorry about that." Karl smiled as he buckled his seat belt.
"It's fine." Sapnap said as he turned on the car engine and began driving forward. He decided to confront Karl later tonight when he was tired, maybe he would be too exhausted to lie anymore?

When the two boys got home, they both walked into the house and upstairs into Sapnap's room.
"So what'd you wanna do?" Sapnap asked Karl.
"Uhhh.. I don't know." Karl replied, laughing.
"Wanna listen to some music and play board games?" Sapnap suggested and Karl nodded in agreement.

"Alexa, play Boys Will Be Bugs by Cavetown." Sapnap said into the device. Quickly after, the song began playing through some fancy speakers which were on his desk.

Sapnap walked over to his closet and opened the top shelf, revealing at least 15 different board games.
"Do you wanna pick one and I'll pick one? We can play both and when we're done we could maybe watch a movie?" Sapnap asked and Karl nodded, once again.
"Ok. I pick... Monopoly." Sapnap smiled and stood on his tiptoes to reach the box. He carried it down and placed it on his bed. Now it was Karl's turn.
"I pick... Scrabble!" He giggled and walked over to the closet.
"Seriously? Scrabble?" Sapnap laughed. Karl simply just rolled his eyes and giggled.

Karl stood on his tiptoes and tried to reach the board game, but he was too short.
"Need some help there?" Sapnap laughed and began walking over to Karl.
"Oh shush." Karl said.
"You ready?" Sap said as he placed his hands on either side of Karl's waist.
"R-Ready for what?" Karl said, blushing at the boys hands placement.

Without warning, Sapnap raised Karl up and Karl had immediately grown over 3 inches.

Karl was shocked, he rushed to get the box and when he got a good grip on it, Sapnap placed Karl back on the floor.
"A bit of warning would of been nice." Karl scoffed sarcastically and turned round, so he's now facing Sapnap. The box was still in his left hand.

Karl looked up into Sapnap's eyes, suddenly noticing how close the two males were. Sapnap's hands were still on Karl's waist, slowly pulling Karl's body closer to Sapnap's. The shorter boy looked down at his feet, not knowing what to do next.

Sapnap placed his finger on Karl's chin, and lifted his face up, making it just inches away from Sapnap's.

The taller male leaned in closer and closer, but their faces suddenly separated when Karl pulled away, releasing his waist from Sapnap's firm grip. He walked past Sap and placed the box on the bed and looked down, leaning his hands on the bed.
"What was that?" He asked, still looking at the floor awkwardly.
"I-I.. I don't know." Sapnap answered, turning around and walking towards Karl.

"I'm sorry." Sapnap apologised, he wondered if he made Karl uncomfortable, or maybe the brunette was just shy?
"It's fine. Let's just play the board games okay?" Karl turned his head around, looking at Sapnap and forcing a smile. Sap nodded in response and began setting up Monopoly.
