"Shh, be careful" I whisper to Austin as we tiptoe in the hallway towards the door trying not to get attention

"Shh, be careful" I whisper to Austin as we tiptoe in the hallway towards the door trying not to get attention. There's a bunch of kids in Ayesha's room doing some schoolproject.

When we get to the door, I open it for him and he slides out. I do the same and slowly close behind me.

This is starting to look like a bad idea. I don't know what came onto me. I just know that I felt the urge to make Austin even happier than he was while simply watching a movie on my laptop. I could barely focus as I looked at the side of his face. He looked so into it and every time something happened, he would clap and make sure I saw it too.

I just couldn't help but smile and before I knew it, I was going through my clothes to find him a disguise because I know his face will light up even more if he watches from a big screen.

And somehow that makes me feel good deep down.

Maybe it's the guilt from the last few days. Maybe that's why I have the urge to make it up to him. Maybe that's why I was so persistent an hour ago when it came to him going home.

I don't want him to go...just yet...

It's been days since I've seen him and we spoke like this.

I don't want him to go because I'm feeling bad about what happened the last time. That's it. It'll all go away once I make it up to him.

The sudden footsteps on the stairs make me swiftly tug him by the arm and corner him while I try my best to cover his body with mine. When the footsteps are close and I see two girls coming up, I lean forward.

"Uh, ew? Get a room? Seriously" I hear one of the girls say and they giggle as they continue up the stairs.

That remark makes me realize how close I've gotten and I swiftly take a step back feeling a bit awkward now until I notice the redness on Austin's face. The embarrassment I felt suddenly gets replaced by something entirely different.

It has happened a couple of times today and I have to admit it's funny to see. It's not everyday I come across someone that can blush so easily. It's adorable.

Unconsciously, I find myself being drawn closer to his figure as I fix his hoodie and pull the mask up a little to properly cover his face.

"You good?" I ask.

What am I even doing right now

"Uhu" he hums looking away shyly, "just a little n-nervous."

"We can go back inside if that's what you want" I find myself saying lowly and he swiftly shakes his head.

"N-no..no, I....I'm not nervous because of this..uhm...it's just that...uhm...y-you were really close" he reveals, "s-so, yeah..."
