Flower Crown (Huntlow Fantic)

Chapter 2: Wake me up for brunch

The sounds of the birds chirping outside the parcially opened window awakens me from my deep slumber. As i try stretching, I feel somthing heavy holding onto me. I flutter my eyes open to look around, and it turned out the person that was holding onto me was Willow. As soon as i looked at her face i tunred a deep shade of pink. Our legs where hooked, her arms where wrapped around my shoulders, and my ear was right up against her chest. (Not sexual, they are minors.) I could feel her soft hearbeat beside my ear. I ended up just laying there, waiting for her to wake up.
A few minutes past and still, no one in the room was awake. The truth was, i never really wanted it to end. her body was warm, and soft.
HUNTER, BAD THOUGHTS.
I decided to get up myself. I slowley and carfully moved my legs and arms one by one, but i just ended up in a different position up against her, and her grip grew stronger as i tried to release myself.
"How does someone do that in their sleep?!" I groaned, giving up on leaving the embrace.
Suddenly, i could her giggling from the couch. I cranged my head to look behind Willow, where the couch was, and i could see Gus just sitting there with his phone thingy facing me and Willow.
"Your awake?!" I scowled at him.
"Uhuh!" He said. "For the past few minutes!"
"What are you doing with that?" I pointed at the phone with my one free arm.
"Obviously, i got a picture!"
"What?! Delete it!"
He shook his head and gave me a weird face (Smirk) and than ran out of the room chuckling.
I tried getting up again, and luckily she let me go this time. I slip away from willows grasp and get up. As i stand, i stumble a little and allmost fall but catch myself.
"Get a grip, hunter!" I wispered too myself.

IN THE KITCHEN
HUNTER POV
"Heyyy Hunter!!!" Luz yelled as she ran towards me. "Brunch is allmost ready!!!!!"
All i did was sputter "Huh." And give her a puzzled look.
"Wait. do you even know what that is?!"
"Uhhh, no." I replied.
"Whaaat?!" Have you been living under a rock?" She said, shaking me by she shoulders.
"Close, I was in the emporers coven!" I chuckled.
"Luz started laughing aswell. We laughed for a good minute until i heard her stop, i stopped aswell. When i looked at Luz she had a smile on her face. Not a smirk, but a smile of releif.
"What?" I said too her, confused.
"Its just.." She said. "I have never heard you laugh before."
I had no idea what to say. Luckily Willow came walking in and it distracted Luz.
"Morning..." She yawned, rubbing her eyes.
"Willowww!!!" Luz cheered.
She ran towards Willow and gave her a hug like she had not seen her in a long time.
"Hey!" Willow giggled.
I turned a little pink at the sight of her, but than titan she never noticed.
"KIDS!" Camila yelled from the table. "TIME FOR BRUNCH!"
"COMING MAMI!" Luz yelled back.
Luz and willow where still chatting and giggling along the way while i doddled behind them. I wasnt listening to what any of them said, just looking at them. watching how and how they interacted. I saw Willow look back at me from time to time, we would gain full eye contact with eachother each time she did. We would both look away quickly every time. I dont know why i find it so hard to make eyecontact with her.
Once we got to the table, there where three seats left for us. After Luz sat down beside Amity, there where two. And they where right beside eachother. My face turned red as i looked at the two empty seats. I think willow turned a little pink aswell. Everyone was looking at us, and smirking.
"Come on, sit down!" Luz chuckled.
I just gave her a wryly "Hm." and sat down.
Sooner or later, willow did aswell. We where close to eachother, but not too close. I was still red.
"Soooo!!!" Gus said. "Wanna see what i saw Willow and Hunter doing this morning?"
As soon as Gus said that, Luz perked up curiously and fixed her posture. "Uhhh, yea!"
Everyone but me, Willow and Camila got up to look at the picture. Right as they looked at it they where smiling and giggling. the whole time my face was buried deep in my hands.
"Willow, wanna see?" Luz said, snatching the "phone" out of Gus hands.
Willow didnt awnser, she just looked at my nervous face, and back at Luz. Even so, Luz still shoved the phone screen infront of Willows face. Willowa cheeks turned the deepest red, and her hands covered her eyes.
"Im sorryyy...." She groaned, peeking at me through her fingers.
It was hard for me to form words because my face was boiling, but i did manage to stitch together the words "Its okay."
"Luz!" Camila scowled suddenly. "Leave those two."
"Whaat? Seriously mama?" Luz replied.
"Yes! And that goes for you too young man!" Camila said, moving her attention towards Gus who was giggling."
"Yes ma'am.." Luz and Gus both said in synch.When i looked down at my plate, i realised i had not touched a bite of my food. I took my fork and dug into the stuff that was on my plate.
By the time i finsihed, everyone else had too. After a few minutes, everyone had gone off to do our own things. Oh how that was chaotic, I was so relived it was over. I had allways wanted to talk to willow, but not with everyone barging in the convo! But how could i do that? Im too nervous to even look her in the eyes. After a while of thinking, i decided to go ask Gus for help. He was allways reliable anyway! I figured he was in the basement because i had seen him reading a book several times today.

A few minutes later
I entered the basement to find not only Gus, but Luz aswell! They where both reading different books. Gus was sitting criss-crossed on the couch, while Luz was laying belly down on the floor. she was the first to notice i was there, most likley because i was standing right infront of her, and out of Gus sight because he had a book shoved infront of his face.
"Yo Hunter!" Luz yelled. "What do you need?"
Gus lowered his book after hearing Luz's voice.
"Need . . . Relationship advice?" He chuckled lightly.
"Uhhh.. yea." I said.
Gus immeditatly perked up. "Really?"
All i did too reply was nod my head embarassingly.
"Wee can tottally helllppp!!!!" Luz said exitedly.
"Well..." I couldnt help but fidget with my fingers as i spoke. "I wanna talk to willow more."
"But you guys talk every day!" Luz replied, giving me a blank look.
"What i mean by that is i wanna talk to her with no interuptions." I scowled.
"Ohhhhhh!!!!" They both said in synch once again.
There was a long, uncomfterable  silance between the three of us.
"I know!" Luz perked. "Its only a thirty minute walk to the movies, we could go there!"
"Great idea!" I said.
Another silance.
"Well?!" Go tell her!" Gus said.
"Oh uhhh... yea bye!!!" I said, running out.
Halfway down the hallway, i stopped to think. I dont actuallly know where she is! I looked in the kitchen, living room, bathroom, and no Willow! Now there was only one more place to look.
"The back yard!" I wisper-yell to myself.

IN THE BACKYARD
As i enter the backyard, i look around at all the flowers and trees. the nature above and below me. After walking around for a good minute, i finally approach Willow. She was making somthing out of... flowers? I walked over to her and tapped her on the shoulder.
"Hey, Willow." I said.
She jumped a bit but then said "Hi!"
"Uhhh. what are you doing?" I said, sitting beside her.
"Weellll...." She started. "its a flower crown. Wanna look?"
"Sure!" I reply.
I watch as she firtily braids the strings of flower together one by one. But to be honest, I wasnt watching the flowers. I was watching her. The way she smiled when she did things she enjoyed, the everlasting twinkle in her eyes, Her soft, glossy hair. I could go on for hours. But its not like i could say it to  her face. Sometimes things are better left unspoken. My thoughts got cut off as Willow started talking, my attention suddently changed right to her as she spoke.
"Finished!!" She cheered, giving me the widest smile ever.
I gave her a puzzled look. "What are you going to do with it?" i said.
Unexpectedly, she placed the crown of flowers on my head. I could feel my face get more and more hot by the second. I had to bury my face in the saftey of my hands to cool down just a little. I tried to talk, but the only words i could stich up was "Uhhhh... Thanks...?"
I quickily got up and speedwalked out of the room.

LATER
I ran back into the house and mealted my back against the door. My knees where burried in my knees and i diddnt want to get up because my face was a vibrant red from emberassment.
"Your so stupid!" I said to myself.
To be honest, i meant what i said to myself. How is it that hard to talk to some girl you met like 13 weeks ago? It makes me feel weak. But its not willow that makes me feel weak, its the fact i get so nervous and overwhelemed over nothing is the hardest feeling to even think about. As tears flew down my cheeks, i hid my head as much as i could.
"Hunter?" Said a Latina accent. As i looked up above me, i could see Camila standing over me.
"Are you okay?" She said, crouching down to my level.
I think my intense breathing gave her the idea that i didnt want to talk about it because she got up and changed the subject quickly.
"We are all going for icecream, you coming?" She said, still giving me a slightly pitiful look.
All i did was nod my head and get up. I stumbled a bit, but i managed to get up.
"Well come on, mijo!" Camila smiled at me.
Before i left the room, i placed the flower crown gently on the counter.
"Coming!" I said, running out the room.
