Skye
Carter and I made ourselves comfortable on my bed, scrolling through Netflix trying to decide what to watch.
"Oooooh let's watch tangled" Carter burst out resulting in a laugh from me. "Alright, tangled it is" I agreed.
Carter made himself at home in extreme excitement while I prepared the masks. Instead of using normal sheet masks, which I never use, I decided to use Multani Mati with orange zest. I mixed it with a little rose water to make it like a paste.
I looked at Carter who was unbothered by anything going in around him, he was engrossed in watching tangled. I took out a headband from my closet and made my way to the bed. I climb on top of Carter so I can apply the mask properly. But apparently, I was blocking his view so he couldn't see 'the man I would turn gay for' as he put it so I shifted a little towards the side so that I still had a good angle and he could see his bae Flynn Rider.
I lifted his head slightly and placed the headband on his forehead to prevent his hair from falling onto his face. He paid no heed until I brushed the paste onto his face. He yelped "Aaaahh please don't kill me you ice monster, whatever it was it wasn't me. It was her," he said pointing at me, his eyes wide.
Dramatic butterflier
I shook my head and continued applying the mask. "But it's so cold" he whined "is it too late to back out now?" he questioned
I let out a huff "yes Carter it is" I gave him a pointed look.
After about three monotonous minutes of him complaining, I finally celebrated my biggest achievement so far. Accomplishing to put the mask on him was like winning fencing in the Olympics. I let out a deep sigh and plopped down on the bed. Car jumped up and landed straight on my stomach, straddling me. I was going to puke "Can't breathe Carter" I huffed "Oh shit sorry," he said getting off of me.
"Aaaaaaahh" he shrieked again "nononono I didn't see it," he said spinning around to face the tv. He picked up the remote, rewinding the movie before pressing pause. He let out a content sigh before turning to me again. "My turn," he said holding out his hand. I gave him the container and he placed the band on my forehead this time. He smeared the paste all over my face, his tongue sticking out in concentration. He looked so cute, I never want to let him go.
His eyes shined bright once he was convinced that his masterpiece was done, he blew a chef's kiss looking at his artwork.
He pulled me up and led me into the bathroom, placing us in front of the mirror. He took my phone out of my back pocket while I stood there confused. He placed the phone in my hand and clicked on snap chat. Figuring out what he wanted me to do, I clicked a few snaps before spinning to face him and placing a delicate kiss on his pink lips.

It was around half-past seven when we decided that we were hungry. "Okay we say what we want to eat on the count of three, whoever says it first is what we'll eat" Carter instructed
"Ready... 1...2...3" he yelled "Sushi" both of us yelled out together, right after. We looked at each other before bursting into laughter. "Sushi it is," he said
We drove to Shiro, a sushi place that I love. We decided to pack the sushi and take it home.
Hand in hand we made our way into the restaurant when my heart shattered. Blaze and his ex-assistant, Piper, we're sitting at a corner table, lips locked. My breath hitched. I felt carter squeeze my hand, indicating that he saw it too. I diverted my gaze, focusing on Carter once again. I gave him the strongest smile I could muster and he smiled back reassuringly.
...
I woke up surprisingly early today, with Carter dearest sprawled across me, his head resting on my chest with his eyes shut tight. I busied my hands with his hair while I shut my eyes and pondered in deep thoughts. I'm pretty sure I got disconnected from the outside world, cause the second I reopened my eyes, Carter was being dramatic. "I was so close to calling 911," he said leaving a tiny gap between his pointed and thumb. "I thought you died! I almost had a heart attack. What would I tell the police if you died? They'd think that I murdered you, oh gosh, then id have to go to prison, I can't let that happen, I need to leave the country, no wait, I need to leave the continent. I need to start packing!" he rambled, shrieking while walking around my rooms in circles, looking like a madman.
I couldn't do much other than look at him amused. "Ok carter, relax. I'm alive and nobody is going to frame you for murder. You don't need to go anywhere" I told him while suppressing my laughter. He huffed faking anger and pouted, running to me again, squeezing the life out of me.
....
"Yes Carter, I'm sure I don't need you to come with me," I said for the hundred and third time.
"Are you sure? Like a hundred and ten per cent sure?" he asked once again
"Bye Car," I said walking out of the house.
I told Carter that I'm going for an evening walk to clear my head when in reality, I'm going to change my phone number at its carrier office. I didn't want to tell Carter that cause then he'd ask me a thousand questions and keep pestering me. He would also give me sample numbers to change my phone number to. Inappropriate ones.
Carter will eventually find out you say? No sir, he won't. I have the perfect plan. I'm not going to call Carter for the time being, and if he calls me, my phone will naturally be switched off so I'll just get home and tell him that it was on airplane mode. Then when he goes into the washroom or something, I'll take his phone and put in my new number and delete the old one. Simple. And as for making it look like I went for a run, I actually did. I took a can here but I'll run back home. I'll have to be can't though, in case he sends out a search party for me.
He's very capable of it. Trust me.
As much as I like Carter, I can't tell him why I'm changing my number. How do you tell someone that you're changing your number cause their brother is calling you nonstop since yesterday?
Blaze
She saw us. She saw piper kiss me. I need to explain it to her. She won't pick up. I need to talk to her.
My mind is a mess.
"This number you are trying to reach does not exist, please check the number you have died" it said again. I looked at my screen in pain. My angel flew.
