I'm with you (A very shitty Gustholomule story)

Chapter 5 Gus POV (Again)

*After skating and they are at the owl house just playing truth or dare*

We were playing truth or dare till we were interrupted. My scroll was ringing. "Oh, I should take this. I'll just go into the kitchen." I said standing up and running to the kitchen. I took out my scroll to see who it was. It was my mum. "Shit, shit, shit, shit" I muttered to myself before answering. (Her name is Stella. It was the first name that came to my head. Ima just write it like a group chat cause it's easy)

Gus- H-hey

Stella- Augustus. Where are you?

Gus- I... I'm at my friend's place for a sleepover. I asked dad and he said it was okay.

Stella- But did you ask me?

Gus- N-no...

Stella- *Sigh* You better be back before lunch tomorrow, Or else. Do you hear me?!

Gus- Y-yes mother- I mean... Yes Stella

*Call ended*
"Oh, Titan... I'm dead, I'm dead, I'm dead, what do I do?!" I said racing back and forth. I just let out a sigh and went back to the lounge room. I sat down and everyone was just, Staring at me. "W-what?" I asked. "Gus. Are you okay? You look like you've been crying" Luz said, pointing to my eyes. Shit... Was I crying? I wiped my eyes. "Y-yeah, I'm fine. Don't worry" I said letting out a nervous chuckle.

--- Time skip. It's now midnight ---

Everyone else was asleep and I was just staring at the roof. It was quiet, till I heard someone whispering. "Psst. Gus. You awake?" It was Matty. "Yeah, couldn't sleep?" "Haha, nah... Wanna head to the roof, I wanna ask you something" "Oh, yeah sure" I stood up and tiptoed to the stairs. I made a small, dull light to see where I was going. Turns out Matty was right next to me. We walked up to the roof and sat in silence for a bit till I finally spoke. "So... What did you want to ask me?" "Oh right. Who was that you were talking to? I mean... They seemed mad." Shit... how do I tell him? "Oh... I-uh, Well..." I Could feel tears rolling down my face. "Gus? You, okay?" "I... Well, you see" My voice was shaking. "Gus! What's wrong?" I couldn't tell him. I didn't want him to worry. Before I could say anything else, I felt arms wrap around me. Matty was... Hugging me. I couldn't hold my tears anymore and just started crying. "Shh. It's okay, It's okay. Let it all out" Matty said, in a calming voice. I hugged him back While crying on his shoulder. We were like that for a good 5 minutes until we finally broke apart. He wiped away my tears and I tried to speak. "I... The person that called me..." I took a deep breath before continuing. "It was my mother..." Fuck! Why did I do that!? "Y-your mom?" I just gave him a small nod. I couldn't tell him the rest of it. I didn't want him to worry, so I made something up. "She was just... Worried. Y-yeah, because she didn't know where I was, so she just wanted to know" Not the best lie, but it was believable. "But... Why were you crying?" Matty asked. Shoot... I forgot about that. "Uh... I just... um, Let's head back! I'm getting tired" I said standing up and getting off the roof. He tried to stop me, but I didn't listen. I just went to the lounge and went to sleep. Trying to forget everything that happened.

--- Time Skip. The next day ---

I Couldn't get much sleep. I was too busy thinking about what was going to happen to me when I got home. I took out my scroll to see what time it was. It was 9:30. I should get ready to head home. I started to back my bag as quietly as I could. Thankfully nobody woke up. I left a small note so nobody would freak out that I was gone.

Hey guys

Sorry I had to go home early.

See you guys' Monday

-Gus

Perfect. I grabbed my stuff and ran out the door. It didn't take me too long to get back to my place. Oh boy... Here we go. I slowly opened the door to see my mom sitting on the couch. "Hello, Augustus"

CLIFFHANGER >:D
