We had fun. Just like old times, we played videogames and guess who beat him up and squeezed the living soul out of him in game? Obviously me. He was frustrated that even after all these years, he still can't beat me in a freaking videogame! I guess I would be squished into the ground if it was a physical fight-

"NOOO!" He yelled in defeat as I threw his character out of the window in game,

"Loser" I chuckled as I burst out laughing.

"Don't be so happy, you beat me because I was distracted in something else" he said with a smile which did not accept defeat, "You distracted me"

"I know! Wait what?" I questioned as...did I understand that correctly?

"Yeah, you distracted me. You still didn't tell me something...I feel that, it is important" he said as I took a deep breath, it was not what I thought it was...wait, why am I feeling sad? But in all seriousness , what does he mean by this? He is bugging me to spill the beans of something, but what is it? Be more specific!

"If you want to know something then stop beating around the bush, detective"

"...I noticed you are wearing your hair up?" He asked as I was confused, what is wrong with me keeping my hair up?

"And?"

"And you always put it down when you are near your boyfriend" he mumbled, "You are miles away from being fashionable, so...what changed when you are with him?"

Was that an insult? But...he has a point. Now how do I tell him that I was forced to wear that by Aaron? Yes, I like to wear casual wear with my hair always up as I didn't like the sticky and sweaty feeling it creates when put down. I am surprised how sharp he is...it is kind of cool. But now...what do I reply?

"Is he actually treating you right or-"

"He asked me to wear it, so I did..." I lied while avoiding his eyes as he is a living lie detector. I hoped he would buy it but...would he really take it?

"Stop lying, you do know that lying doesn't work on me right?"

Damn it! This guy is slowly squeezing the truth out of me!

"...can I go to sleep please?" I muttered as he sighed,

"You don't want to say it, fine. The guest room is the second door to your right" he said as I started walking over there, suddenly he grabbed my arm as I got a bit startled,

"Just shut the door and stay in" he said as a warning as he picked up my car keys, "I am going outside to get some groceries, alright?"

"...alright"

...

(The next day)

I slowly woke up to the sounds of birds chirping as I let out an irritated groan. Is it morning already? Damn it. I stood up unwillingly and dragged both of my feet to the bathroom.

"W-WHAT?" I yelled as I saw myself in the mirror...THAT LITTLE PIECE OF SHI-

"Pfft-"

"YOU! HOW DARE YOU TOUCH MY BEAUTIFUL FACE AND RUIN IT?" I yelled at the idiot who scribbled and drew a moustache on my face in my sleep,

"I just created a master piece, why are you making a fuss on that-" he giggled as he laughed pointing at my face which was scribbled, "Revenge is sweet isn't it?"

"Whatever, do you have any clothes of my size?" I asked as I wanted to take a nice bath. He nodded and gave me one of his new hoodies for me to get into. I took it and scrubbed my face until the mark went...damn it! Was it permanent marker?

Finally after scrubbing it for five minutes straight, it went off, phew! I quickly changed into the hoodie he gave and it was damn comfy! Gotta get few of these! Wait...but Aaron doesn't let me wear it though. My life sucks.

I got out of the room all fresh and hungry as I saw him arguing with someone through his phone,

"It was him, he is the murderer, I saw him! What do you mean I have no evidence, sir?" he said with a serious expression. He immediately hung up the call as he saw me pace in the room,

"You found the murderer-?"

"Are you hungry?" He interrupted with a forced smile, I could tell he was stressed.

"Yeah...I will just go home-"

"...n-no" he muttered and now I could say he was avoiding something.

"Let's get you some icecream from the corner?" He said as my suspicions only raised. He never promoted me getting icecream from any other place than that place where I won't get sick. What is this now? I am not a detective!

"I don't mind" I said as I had no intention to get in his case anyways.

He got in my car and we hung out in the park, icecream shop, and even in a restaurant! Everytime I took the talk of going back home, he would change the topic and take me somewhere else. What is goin' on? Aaron must be worried sick by now!

"Give me a minute, let me call Aaron-" I said as I just wanted to inform him where I was, but then he caught my arm and prevented me from doing so.

"How about you put down your phone and enjoy the sunset?" Henry said with another forced smile, he is been lately off from last night when he went out to get groceries. Did something happen? (Weeho! guess what happen! This piece of information is important for later on! So don't forget it!)

"Alright" I said, as he doesn't act like a moron without no reason.

"Why don't you stay for another night? Penelope couldn't make it again, but I have it all planned out" he said as his eyes were begging me to agree. I must say, I had plenty of fun. So, why not?

"I don't mind"

...

He maybe knows?

And guys, I don't know how I am still alive after losing five marks in maths. Today is my last day on earth though, life is tough. Why does anything like a PTM exists? I am seriously going to die today. Good bye world. I hope I will be remembered.
