Internet boyfriend ~ D.S.

After a call with my mom, I go over to drew who's reading on the couch. He looks up at me and frowns, I lay down and put my head on his lap "what's wrong?" He asks running his fingers through my hair.

"My parents got COVID. They said I can't come home since they are staying at my apartment in New York" I sniffle and wipe my nose with the sleeve of his hoodie.

He plays with my hair as he frowns "are they okay?" I nod "my mom said it wasn't that bad. I'm just worried" I look up at him and he leans down, kissing my forehead.

He smiles a little "so that means you're staying longer?" I give him a look and he stops smiling "sorry"

I smile a little and he wipes my cheeks "they'll be okay" I nod a little "I know"

"So, I was thinking about something" he says and puts his book down, I sit up and he pulls me on his lap so I'm straddling him.

The others are sleeping. They had a little party last night while me and drew watched tv in his room.

He wasn't feeling good so we stayed in his room all day and I made him soup.

"About?" I ask and he smiles "there's an apartment upstairs for rent" I smile a little "and?" He smiles wrapping his arms around me "do you want to get it. You'll be staying for a couple months and it's kind of getting cramped in here"

I lick my lips "you want to?" He nods smiling and I nod smiling at him "okay"

His lips are on mine as he leans back into the couch, pulling me against him.

I put my hands under his ears as his tongue slides in my mouth "you too?!" We pull away and look at Rudy "first I caught mads and chase and now you guys?!" He whines and goes back to his room.

Me and drew look at each other and laugh before I press my lips back on his.

Once he pulls away he tucks my hair behind my ear "guys! Come in here!" He yells and I sit beside him.

They come in and look at us annoyed "what?" I giggle quietly and drew puts his chin on my shoulder "we're getting that apartment upstairs"

"Finally" chase says and walks away "it's about time. I've been leaving hints everywhere" mads says and also walks away.

Me and drew scoff and Rudy whines "you're leaving me?! With them!" I press my lips together "you can-" drew cuts me off by putting his hand over my mouth.

"We are leaving you"

Rudy rolls his eyes and walks away. I look back at drew and smile "when are we going to get it?" He scratches the back of his head "I sort of... already got it" he says the last part quickly and I smile at him shaking my head "of course you did. Of course you did"

I press my lips on his and he pulls me back on his lap.

He trails his lips down to my neck and I tug on his hair, "baby?" He mumbles against my neck, his hot breath sending shivers down my body.

"Hmm?" I bite my bottom lip and he lifts his head to look at me "let's move out shit up there" I nod and he stands up still holding me.

I squeal and wrap my legs around him "guys! Come help us!" He yells and we hear groans making me laugh.

Me and drew collapse on our bed after moving everything in. It was just the bed and the dresser and our clothes and all our stuff.

Everything in the room downstairs.

"I have an interview tomorrow, about outer banks" he says and I hum "do you want me to stay or I can go for a walk so I don't accidentally expose myself" I tease him with a smile and he rolls his eyes going on his stomach "are you ever going to let that go?"

"I'll come back to you in 3-5 business days" I say in a robot voice and he chuckles before pulling me to him "be quiet" I laugh at him "or maybe I'll just go upstairs and wait till you're done"

He lifts his head and glares at me.

"Okay, no need to go all Rafe on me" I laugh at his face and he pushes me away before standing up.

"We need to go shopping for food" he says walking out and I sit up "oh come on. It was funny" I say still laughing and he fake laughs.

"I guess you don't love me" I tilt my head then scream when he runs back in and jumps on me.

I laugh and he lifts himself up "why you gotta say that? I'm trying to be mad at you" I smile biting my bottom lip "you can't be mad at me"

He rolls his eyes before kissing me.

I wrap my arms around his neck and he pulls away making me pout "shopping. We have no food. Literally"

I groan and sit up "fine. Let me change" he kisses my cheek and I smile as I go to our closet and grab sweats and a cropped tank top.

I change into those and put on one of Drew's sweaters. I put my crocs on and grab my phone before leaving our room.

"Ready?" He asks and I nod going over to him, "my stomach hurts" I say and he frowns a little "are you feeling okay?" He asks putting the back of his hand on my forehead.

I nod at him "kiss" I pucker my lips and he leans down pressing a kiss on my lips before grabbing my hand and we leave our apartment.

Our apartment. I smile to myself and Drew opens the passenger door for me. I smile at him getting in and he closes the door before going to the drivers side.

He puts his hand on my thigh as he starts driving and I play with his hair while looking out the window as we listen to the music in the radio.

We get to a grocery store and put our masks in before getting out of the car. He comes over to me while I fix my pants and shirt.

I grab his hand and hold it with both of mine as I play with his fingers "what do you want for supper?" He asks as he grabs a cart and I let go of his hand so he can drive it.

"Ooh. I want BLT and chilli fries" I say and he nods a little looking somewhere. I look where he's looking and see some girls taking pictures of us.

Their eyes widen and they turn away.

We go down an aisle and I look at him "you okay?" He nods at me and grabs bacon "can you go grab bread, please?" He asks and I nod "what kind?"

"The one with the seeds" I nod and start walking around to look for the bread.

While I look at all the bread, the same two girls walk over with their arms crossed "who are you and what are you doing with Drew Starkey?" I look at them while grabbing the bread and see them recording.

"Who?" I tilt my head and they scoff "don't act like you don't know who drew Starkey is"

"Oh, that wasn't Drew. He just looks like him, don't worry. Everyone always mixes him up with Drew" they falter a bit "that's not Drew?"

"No" I smile to myself but it's hidden under the mask "bye" I say and walk away rolling my eyes.

I chuckle when I get to drew and he looks at me while I put the bread in the cart. I got two.

"What did you do now?" I giggle "some girls came up to me and was all like 'who are you and why are you with Drew Starkey?'" I laugh "I made them think it wasn't you" he chuckles and puts his arm around my waist "it was so funny. Cause they look like 15 year olds"

He shakes his head and pulls his mask down before kissing the top of my head and putting his mask back on "some fans are so crazy" I nod and start driving the cart "got the lettuce?" He nods "yup. Now we need fries and stuff to make chilli"

"I wanted to get it at that place we went that week. They were really good"

He looks down at me and plays with my hair "yeah? You like it there?" I nod smiling at him "yeah. I think this is all for supper but we need food" he nods "yeah. All we have in the fridge are teas" he says scratching the back of his head.

"Those are your teas, not mine" he mocks me and wraps his arms around me from behind as we continue to shop.
