The guys came back 10 minutes after that and asked me to join them for dinner downstairs.

"God this hamburger is amazing" I said, and Nick who had the same as I nodded in agreement.

We didn't talk too much, and then we all just went to sleep.

I texted Nick just in case he wanted to hang out. "Hey, I'd tell you to come over but I really need some sleep, we can watch a movie tomorrow tho"

I really didn't want to know what he was going to text, so I left my phone next to my bed and went to sleep.

Why was it that I can never lay down and just fall asleep? It always takes me a hundred hours to do so.

I couldn't with the doubt so I checked my phone, and he had just replied with an "ok cool", perfect, now it will take me even more to fall asleep.

Changing to Nick's POV because Matteo's experience at uni is boring.

I woke up after a really long night, where I tried as many things as you can think of to fall asleep.

But it took me a lot.

I really didn't feel like doing anything, but I had to edit the car video for today.

I decided I was going to edit on my bed, so I didn't have to get up.

Fifteen minutes went by, and I realized I was hungry.

I texted on my group chat with my brothers and asked if they were having breakfast.

"I was about to"
"wanna join me?"
Matt replied.

I put on some pants, went downstairs, and had breakfast with Matt.

Chris was apparently sleeping since he was up until like 3 am.

"So, how's Matteo's thing going?" Matt started a conversation.

"I think it's good, but he either doesn't like me or doesn't know when I'm flirting" I replied.

"I bet he's just not catching the signs" he said. "Yeah, probably, but I really need to know what he feels, yesterday we had breakfast and I think I made things worse"

"How??" he said, very interested in the conversation.

"Well I asked if it was a date and he said that it could be, but even if it was, he wouldn't know what it meant, guess what I replied" I said, regretting what my reply was.

"I have no idea what on earth you could've said to ruin it"

"I told him it didn't have to mean anything! I'm so dumb, I was just trying to make him feel not too pressed" I tried to explain myself. "Really? "It doesn't have to mean anything"?" he quoted me. "Out of all the things you could've said?"

"I know, I fucked up, and I don't know what to do" I said defeated.

After like half an hour Chris woke up, he looked like a zombie.

"Oh my god! You look really bad! What the hell happened to you?" I asked while giving Matt a concerned funny face.

"I was playing Fortnite and I don't know when I fell asleep in the chair while playing!" He explained his situation and Matt and I laughed.

"Oh I know why I fell asleep," he said after looking for something on the fridge. "We're out of pepsis!"

"Oh no! We're gonna die!" I said dramatically. "I am" he clarified. 

"Where's Matteo?" He asked after sitting down next to Matt and stealing from his breakfast.

"At uni, why?" Matt answered him. "I'm gonna ask him to bring me some on his way back"

"He's coming back in two hours, are you going to survive?" I asked mockingly.

"Only if I go to sleep again" he said. "Don't be ridiculous you have things to do, we all do, let's get to work".

We finished our breakfast, tidied up and everyone went back to their rooms.

I put some music in the background and continued with the editing.

Two hours later, when Matteo was supposed to come back, I heard Chris cheer and Matteo laugh.

Then I heard a knock on my door.

"Come in!" I shouted. "Hey" he said smiley. "You're happy today" I said curious.

"Kinda, Chris just hugged me and kissed my forehead because I brought a pack of pepsis, anyway, whatcha doing?" he sat next to me and rested his head on my shoulder while looking at the screen.

"Editing" I said, trying not to get too happy.

"I can't wait to watch that video, you looked handsome" he said and then left my room.

That was weird, but maybe he's starting to realize that I like him.

I couldn't wait to make a move.
