I wake up at 8:40 am to someone jumping on the mattress, before even opening my eyes i know who it is.

"chris stop jumping on the fucking mattress" i say sitting up

"sorry" chris says giggling

i get up and go to the kitchen where i see nick and matt. I sit down next to nick and lay my head on the counter.

"im never staying here ever again" i groan

"did chris wake you up? yeah he did that to matt and i too nick says

"yeah" i say lifting my head up from the counter

"morning sleeping beauty" matt says

"good morning train boy" i say "where ya going?" 

"café, but these assholes dont want to come with me" matt says rolling his eyes

"can i come?, im sick of them anyways" i say

"yeah, just go get ready" matt says

i put on the clothes i had on the day before and matt drives to the café. 

"can we listen to taylor swift?" i ask

"uhm, im not much of a swiftie" matt says driving

"WHAT?!. i am putting taylor swift and you are becoming a swiftie" i say putting on taylor swift in the car

when we get to the café we sit in a booth talking. We go to the house after an hour and hang out until i walk back home.

~a month later~

Nick, Matt, Chris and i are in dennys. Recently, ive been getting this weird feeling in my stomach everytime i talk with matt. I ignore it and i dont tell anyone about it, but i really dont know what the feeling means. I catch myself staring and blushing at matt as he looks at his menu, i bury my face in my hands in embarrassment, not knowing if chris or nick saw. Thats when i realized, i like matt.  I like my best friend. Of course im not gonna tell him or nick or chris yet because im not sure if its really a crush or its just a phase.

"are you okay?" matt says chuckling

"im fine" i say uncovering my face

nick look at me and grins, i assume he saw me blushing, but chris didnt so its fine. After some time we go back to their house. I am staying over because we have the same train the next day. Nick drags me to his room and he locks the door.

"you like matt" nick teases me

"shut the fuck up, yeah i do. please dont tell chris or matt or my mom or my dad or anyone" i say

"why not chris?" nick says

"he'll tell matt!" i say 

"dont you trust him?" nick asks

"of course i do! i love chris but im just not ready to tell him, or anyone. I wouldnt have told you if you hadnt found out. Please dont tell him" i beg nick

"ugh, fine" nick says grinning

"thank you" i say
