Ant POV:



I opened my eyes lazily, attempting to take in my surroundings. I didn't usually wake up on something moving... Wait- this is a chest? Am I on someone right now?!

I tried shutting my brain up so I could think properly and not deal with fifty thoughts at once, but that was especially hard since it's not often - or ever - that I wake up on someone's chest. My heart was pounding in my ears I couldn't even hear my thoughts anymore...

That was until a hand shook me up. I attempted to stay calm when I noticed that this chest belonged to Josh, but that seemed impossible now. My face was burning red, and I was almost positive that he could hear my heart beating out of my chest. I could.

Only seconds later I heard a small muttering voice above me. Josh. I lifted my head off of his chest and looked at him. How have I only now realized how attractive Josh was in the morning? Messy hair, lazy face, with those beautiful huge, blue eyes. Jesus... It was hard just to look away.

"Good morning." He said.

"Morning." I responded.

Awkward.

After a few more moments, I fully lifted myself off Josh and made a clear foot between us. I felt my face flush at the moment. There was an awkward silence - one that neither of us seemed to break. But that silence was soon broken when Josh suddenly got up, trying his best to keep his eyes off me for some reason and rushed out of the living room with a quick, "I'm having a shower."

I raised an eyebrow at his sudden leave. And I thought I was flustered. Maybe he wasn't... Maybe he was just embarrassed, about the situation of course. But that is basically just being flustered... I don't know what to think.

The day went on and I saw a lot less of Josh. And when I thought we had figured out our problem, another even weirder one occurs. Once, I was avoiding Josh. Now, it had switched. I was confident he had locked himself in his room , only coming out for food.

Maybe he just didn't want to be distracted, he may have been filming. Though I just knew it was to avoid me. It must have been awkward for him as well. Waking up, having a teen on your chest. Both of them becoming flustered? Awful experience.


Before I knew it, it was dinner. I hoped Josh would come out, I had made him food.
It took him a few minutes, but he had finally walked out of his room - keeping his head down as he made his way over to me from the stairs.

I smiled wearily up at him, he gave one back. Slowly, I passed him his plate of food, he took it. It was a silent exchange, well, not really exchange unless you were trying to count the small thanks he gave me. But I didn't want that. I wanted him to get over whatever the hell he thought was going on between us so we could talk.

We had already been in a long, everlasting silence of unspoken apologies. I wasn't about to let it happen again.

Before he could walk off, I called his name. He turned around in suspicion, raising a brow at me, "What?"

I sighed happily, I was surprised how happy I was just to hear his voice... I snapped myself out of it quickly to get back to reality.

"Why are you doing this? We just made it okay and now it's not. What happened?" I rushed, hoping he heard each word since I said it so nervously. He just stood there though, not saying a word, plate in hand and lips pressed tightly together as if he was holding back the words that so desperately wanted to be out.

We stood there in an awkward silence for over a few seconds more than comfortable. His eyes were shifting from mine, to the floor, to his food, then back to me.
