Bbh/Darryl POV
I wake up the next day to my mother yelling at me to come downstairs. I'm confused because she has a sweet tone, but I know I have to listen no matter what.
When I get downstairs, I'm even more in shock. Set on the table is a plate with homemade muffins that she points me towards.
"Good morning, sweetie! Those muffins are for you, by the way." She smiles brightly at me.
"Thanks, mom, these look really good." I know better than to ask why she's being nice. That might just make her mad again.
My mother joins me at the table, and I realize why she's being so nice to me. "So, how was your date last night? Is she the one?"
I blush slightly, thinking of Zak. "It was perfect, mom. We went to a nice dinner and then watched the meteor shower. She's so funny and caring, and she always knows how to make me smile."
"Aww, that's so sweet. I hope you'll let me meet her."
"Of course, maybe one day." I say, my mouth full.
Once I finish my breakfast, I politely excuse myself from the table and make my way to my bedroom.
There's not really much to do today, so I decide to text my friends if they want to hang out today.
Besties
You
Are you guys free today? We should hang out as a group!
Puffy :D
I'm free! We could just all go to the mall? There's a lot of good food and there's a playground across the street!
Antfrost
Ooo that sounds fun! Can I invite Velvet?
Baguette Boy
Ughh not the couplessss
But I'm free today, let's meet up around 11 then, if that works?
You
Ok! I'm going to ask Zak if he wants to come, if that's alright?
Everyone agrees, so I call Zak.
"Hello?" He answers, sounding groggy from sleep.
"Hi! Did I wake you up? Oh my gosh, I'm sorry!"
He laughs, and I hear some shuffling around. "It's fine, I need to be awake by now anyway. What's up?"
"Well, um, I was going to the mall with some friends and maybe Velvet if Ant can convince him, but I was just wondering if you wanted to come too?" I pause. "You don't have to, though."
He's quiet for a second, before yawning. "Yeah, I'll come. What time?"
I grin, "Yay! Around 11, I can have Cara pick you up if you want? She's my ride as well."
"Yeah, ok. I'll see you in a bit." He yawns again. "I gotta go, but I'll talk to you later, kay?"
"Alright, bye."
I hang up the phone and lay back on my bed, thinking about the night before.
Knowing that Zak was willing to do all that for a fake relationship both made me happy and sad.
I know that everything last night was a show for Ant and Velvet, but that's what makes it hurt more.
He's so sweet and funny and I don't know what to think anymore because maybe, I don't want to be pretending anymore.
