The experiment

Party invitation 

I asked *What the hell Ian you don't even know if he watches anime* "Um, I'm going to have to go with Hinata." I was kind of relieved and happy when he said, "How come to Hinata, noya's shorter?" "True but Hinata's also nicer and a less violent person." He said, picking up an acorn and throwing it. Two weeks later, carl and I became close friends and we talked nonstop. We have a lot more in common than I thought. "Hey Ian wait up" carl yelled running up behind me. I stopped walking and waited for him "What's up?" I asked as he was waking up next to me. He had sweat dripping off of his face and he had on a grey muscle shirt and black basketball shorts. He was at basketball practice on the court when I was walking past. "Um so my birthday is coming up and I was wondering if you wanted to go, it's just going to be at my house" questioned "Um yea sure when is it?" I asked "It's Friday at my house, it starts at 5 after school and my mom said I could have two friends stay the night if you want to" He explained "Sounds fun I will ask my mom if I can go," I said looking at my watch. "Ok well let me know what she says," He said walking back *I want to talk to him more but I don't want to weird him out I mean we've known each other for two weeks and got close but I've never seen him at basketball practice* "Um hey carl," I said in a kind of loud voice hoping he was done. "Yea," He said turning around "Do you want to come to my house and play video games or something?" I asked but for some reason, my face felt like it was getting red but I couldn't think why. "Um yeah sure let me just go grab my stuff," He said running to go grab his stuff. He got his stuff and we walked home when something happened. carl's hand accidentally touched mine. I didn't think anything of it. "Sorry." He pulled his hand away. "You're good." I said awkwardly but the weird part was that it happened a few times. We finally got home and he ran to his house quickly to put his stuff away. I just waited outside on the porch "Are you ready?" He asked, closing the door behind him. "Yep," I said, getting up. We got into my house and when I unlocked it my mom wasn't home which was weird because she didn't tell me that she was working late and she always texts me or tells me in the morning. He has already been here so I didn't have to show him around "So what game do you want to play?" I asked, carl was taking his shoes off and hopping on my bed "Um we could play Minecraft." He said sitting up on my bed "Ok". I got two remotes and I turned on my ps4 and put the game in "Player one or two?" I asked him sitting on my bed "Um two" He said putting his phone down and grabbing the remote. We played for what felt like hours until it was time for him to go home "Well I better get going" He said turning his remote off "Oh ok, see you tomorrow" I said putting the remotes away "See you tomorrow". It was Friday afternoon and it was about 4:25 which means I had 35 minutes until carl's party. It wouldn't take me more than a minute or two to get to his house so I had time to find out what I was going to wear. I didn't know it was so hard to find something to wear to our best friends birthday party, I felt like a girl I probably tried on 10 different outfits before I finally choose this one; a navy blue short sleeve Hollister shirt that had their logo on the front and I put on black jeans a part that I only wear on special events and then I put on my good pair of converse that I wear on the first day of school. By the time I got done and ready it was 4:45 "My mom I'm headed to carl's" I said grabbing my nice black jacket "Why so early doesn't it start at 5 doesn't it" She asked as soon as she asked that I remembered "Oh mom I forgot is it ok if I stay the night at his house tonight?" I asked as I closed the door "I don't care as long as nothing happens". I ran back to my room and I got my P.J's and I outfit to wear tomorrow. I headed to his house. It was only 4:55 but 5 minutes didn't matter. I knocked on his door when carl opened the door and, to be honest, he looked better than he ever did, He had on a black short sleeve a nice shirt that had two buttons at the top and he had on medium light blue jeans with a chain hooked on the side of them and he has on nice black boot like shoes and his hair was pulled back with the few front hairs falling in his face and he had on a small chain necklace and I black and silver watch. "Oh hey, you made it come in," I said, opening the door wider so I could get in. "Well, why would I miss my best friend's 17th birthday party,"
