Falling Together

He Knows

Dax.

I was sulking around my apartment throwing treats down the hallway and watching Beast run after it to scarf it down. I had been sleeping a lot better with mine and Maisie's arrangement the past couple weeks. We had agreed that if we felt we needed to, that I would go to her room and we would be there for one another.

The problem is that neither one of us had needed one another the past few days. I was getting better sleep so I was having even fewer episodes. Even Maisie was perkier than she usually was.

It was both relieving and annoying because even though I know I shouldn't, I really wanted Her by my side. After Maisie and Noah made up I stayed away a few days to give him some time to cool off. We eventually bro hugged it out but I could tell he still wasn't sure what to think of mine and Maisie's friendship.

Friendship..

Sometimes I wondered about that. Were Maisie and I really still just friends? I mean, we sleep together. Sleep being the literal word. We hold hands, even though I guess we never really talked about it. And we text each other everyday and sit on the phone all through the night. Aside from kissing and intimacy... everything about the way we are with each other screams more.

Even Harbor asked me when I was bringing my girlfriend back to see her. I laughed and told her Maisie would be back soon. She beamed at me with a smile that could blind the sun and I just laughed. I didn't mean to confirm that Maisie was my girlfriend, but I sure as hell liked the sound of it

My phone vibrated next to me so I put the bag of treats down, much to Beasts dismay, and looked over at it

Maisie: I don't suppose you're having a bad day or anything...

I laugh. I guess Maisie and I think more alike than I thought.

Dax: Nope. You?

Maisie: no.. :/

Dax: maybe we could still do something?

Maisie: ???

Dax: we could watch a movie in your room? And if you want I could stay.

Dax: if not I can come back home.

Maisie: YES! Lol

Maisie: stay! Please <3

I laugh out loud. At Least now I know she is getting as attached to sleeping with me as I am to her.

Dax: On my way. Lol

Maisie: Yay!!

I laugh before getting up from the couch and practically skipping to my room like an idiot. I throw on a fresh shirt and some basketball shorts. Beast jumps into my dresser drawer and meows loudly.

Crap. I better feed him now while I'm at it. I go to the kitchen we're his food bowl sits on the floor and fill it up. He digs in right away. Worried he won't have enough I pour even more in the bowl and just let it spill to the floor. If I want a good night's sleep the last thing I want is to be worried about Beast not having enough food.

After a 30 minute drive I park down the street from Maisie's house and text her that I'm there. My phone immediately rings. I answer.

"What's up? I'm about to come in now." I say putting my car in park.
