EverShall: Mute but Cute

Chapter 11

TP POV:

Chase and Marshall arrived at the boarding house. After they went up to the second floor and they directly headed to Chase's room.

"So, you can take the top bunk and I'll take the bottom." Chase said. Marshall nodded as he  looked around. The sat down on the bottom bed while hey 'talked' about the upcoming game since Marshall wasn't there when they did earlier.

After an hour or so of discussing game plans and stuff at school  Marshall walked up and sat down towards the computer desk. He was thinking about something while clicking through the screen.

"Whatcha doing?" Chase asked currently laying on his bed.

*"Checking the calendar."* He replied turning around to face him.

"Why?" Chase asked curiously.

*"I'm looking through the school events."* He turned back to the screen and skim through the calendar. There's many events that the school should be preparing. Basketball tournament, Sport's fest, Valentine's day, Camping, Halloween, Christmas party, Prom night, etc.

Marshall was particularly focused on Valentine's and Prom. Chase stood up and also looked through the events. He also focused on the two events.

"So, random question.... Who are you planning to ask to prom?" He asked not looking away from the screen.

Marshall put his hand under his chin and was thinking about something. Then he turned to him. *"No one."*

Chase looked at him a bit surprised. "Really? No one?"

*"I've got not much girl friends. (An: Notice the space) And I'm pretty sure most of them already have bfs."*

Chase thought for a moment, "well what about from our group?"

*"You'll kill me if I said Skye."* Marshall rolled his eyes at him.

"Will you though?"

*"No. She's nice but, I kinda see her as a big sister to be honest. Like you."* He replied truthfully.

"Wait, you think of me as a big sister?"

*"Eh? No, I meant big brother for you!"*

"Ah, right. Well... what about big sister Everest then?" He asked wearing a big teasing smile. Marshall's heart beat went faster when he added the word "big sister".

He thought, "Crap! That's right she's supposed to be the oldest one out of all of us! How could I forget about that?!"

*"I.... She's basically almost two years older than me, Chase. And I don't think I have much of a chance."* He gave a rueful sigh.

"Hey come on don't say that. I'm pretty sure she doesn't look too much on age. And considering your body type, you're taller than her by around half an inch so its  not that obvious. You should still try if you like her right?" He tried to console him.

*" I don't know. I might just mess things up."* He looked down unsure.

"You do realize that you just admitted that you like her just now right?" He asked with a smirk.

Marshall's eyes widened in realization. He thought, "Well f*ck..."

*"Tell no one, I dare you."* He glared at him seriously.

Chase just chuckled not scared of his little threat. He said, "Don't worry I've known for a while now anyway. I wasn't planning on telling anyone."

Marshall nodded content with his answer. Because if he didn't, he could always counter with "Hey Skye! Did you know Chase likes you and that he has a whole shelf of your magazines hidden in his room?" Of course he'll have to either write it or text her.
