"...I'm not really afraid anymore" he said a bit quietly. "Afraid of what?" I asked him slowly. "I'm not really afraid to say that I have feelings for you..."
"Look at these cats" i pointed my phone in y/n's direction to show her a video of 3 black baby kittens huddled together. "Awww oh my gosh their so cute" she said as her cheeks lifted and she smiled.
She sat up but placed her weight on her arm but She suddenly furrowed her brows and looked at me. She put her nose near my hair and smelled me. "What?" I asked confused and looked at her. "Nothing you just smell.. really good" she didn't give me a smile or a frown—she had a genuine face and looked at me pure eyed like when I was in her bathroom, taking off her face mask.
"Oh um thanks". I don't know why but when y/n compliments me I end up feeling embarrassed but good at the same time. Not embarrassed like I want her to stop but embarrassed like she truly made me feel nervous from just her words.
I smiled at her and she took out her phone. She pointed it at me but placed her head beside it so I was still looking at her to the side. "Wow what a great picture.. posting" she said looking at her phone—nodding. "Mannn let me see" "wait wait, okay you can look now it's on my acc" she said laughing a bit.
I let out a quick sigh and took out my phone. The post came up immediately on my feed and there was already a couple comments.

"When we're you gonna tell us you have a boyfriend? Really?" I said looking at y/n. "Your like the first guy I posted on there and I don't have any guy friends so their just assuming" What she said kinda made my heart flutter inside. "Really? Your not just saying that to flatter me?" I said sarcastically. "I'm completely serious sir" she said in a overly exaggerated British accent making me chuckle.
Y/n's pov:
After the whole thing with Rodrick asking me about the comments of the picture I posted of him we kinda just laid on his bed together. Before you say anything, no we didn't cuddle. I'm being completely honest when I say we laid straight like a pencil next to each other but held our phones up. Occasionally, we would put them down and talk about random stuff like cats, music, styles, etc.
A couple hours went by like maybe 3 so it was 9:30 and Susan came up to Rodricks room. She knocked then came in and saw me laying on my stomach on my phone while Rodrick was laying on his back on his phone.
"Morning mrs Heffley." I Said smiling at her. "Goodmorning y/n" She Said smiling at me back then looking to Rodrick. "Rodrick your up early" "yuppp" Rodrick said not paying attention to her. "You know your never up early and you rarely shower but you woke up 30 minutes before y/n came here and got in the shower this morning." Rodrick looked at her a bit wide eyed like he was telling her to stop talking mentally.
"I um just felt getting up early." Rodrick said kind of fumbling his words. "Hmmm what about the shower?". "When I um woke up I thought I stunk...really bad". I put my hand over my phone and tried to hold in my laughter.
Susan placed a hand on her hip and leaned against the door frame. "What about this clean room? You spent all day yesterday before y/n came over, cleaning it and I wonder why?" She said trying to get something out of Rodrick. "I just..noticed it wass.. really dirty yea". "Never bothered you before" "yea because I didn't pay attention to it but yesterday I did so I cleaned." Rodrick said fast—trying to end the nerve wrecking conversation as fast as possible.
"Hmm okayyy, we'll I'll just go now". "Thank god" he said under his breath. "You sure there wasn't any other reason?" Susan said raising her brows at him. Rodrick got up from the bed and made his way to the door. "Okay okay I'm going" Susan said laughing. He shut the door and let out a hard sigh through his nose then turned around to look at me—leaning against the door.
He saw me smiling. "What?" "I'm just curious now too" I said knowing the exact reason he did all those things. "Why did you do all those things?". "I already said" Rodrick said avoiding eye contact with me by going to his dresser and looking at Random things.
"So it's just a coincidence?" I asked sitting up completely and putting legs in a crisscross. "What's a coincidence?" Rodrick asked trying to play dumb."You know exactly what I'm talking about." He turned around, walked over to the bed and stood in front of me.
"Shhhhh" he said while placing a finger over my lips. I bit his finger and he pulled it back quickly. "Ow! What the fuck was that for?" He said shaking his hand. "Don't try to change the conversation." "Oh my god y/n can you drop it?" He said sighing. "No I can't." "Why not?". " because I wanna know the real reason." I said placing my chin on my hand.
"We're not doing this." "Rodrick-" I tried saying before he got frustrated and cut me off. "I said we're not doing this y/n. Now stop"
I smacked my lips. "Whatever" I laid back down then turned over so my back was facing him and went on my phone. Rodrick sighed. "Y/n". I was mad at him so when he called my name I flipped him off.
