Clay and I slept throughout the rest of the night, holding each other, sharing our body heat. I could stay like this forever of life allowed it. Suddenly, a loud, constant knocking is heard from Clays bedroom door. Life won't allow it.

I get up, throwing one of Clays T shirts on, covering my still nude body. I cautiously open it. Slowly looking out, to find an almost traumatized Nick and George, with the- well, soiled sheets that were thrown on the floor. My face immediately heating with embarrassment as they're eyes shift from my face to Clays T shirt loosely hanging from my body, covering down to my thighs.

"I thought you guys wouldn't be back until tomorrow " I sigh. "Yea, we decided to catch an early flight to surprise you guys-" Nick responds, dumbfounded at the sight. "So what's going on?" George questions. Before I could answer, Clay opens the door further, still in only boxers, looking just as confused as everyone else. "So um, I guess now is a good time to tell you guys, Eva and I are dating" Clay says.

"Dating?" Nick questions, "I just assumed y'all was just fuckin around". Nicks eyes lower to my exposed thighs, "shame" he adds. Clays eyebrow furrows, "what's a shame?" He asks, stern. George's face shifting in concern. "I think he was just joking, you know." George exclaims trying to cover Nicks tail. "I just thought Eva had a different type. I didn't know she'd get with you" Nick says shrugging his shoulders. Clay scoffs.

I glance at Clays face, trying to read his emotions. This is one I've never seen on him. I can't tell if it's jealousy or what. "What would Eva's type be then, Nick?" Clay says through his gritted teeth. This is definitely jealousy. "I actually don't have a type," I begin, in hopes to save this situation, "I just really care for Clay, and things just kind of— happened ya know?". Nicks face dropping, "okay" he says before walking away and George following close behind.

Clay half slams the door, flopping down on his bed, groaning. "What was that about?" He says glaring eyes at me. "I really have no clue, that was weird." I reply, shrugging. "Okay well, I have to shower and get set up for a stream Eva, I'll talk to you when it's over and we can hang out" Clay says staring at his feet. "I love you" I say wrapping my arms around his neck. Clay lifts a hand to touch my arms, "love you." Disappointment growing in my face at his response. Last time it was 'I love you' now it's just 'love you'. I feel a lump form in my throat, exiting the room before I can cry, "see ya" I say softly, shutting the door behind me.
