I knocked on Tom's door.

„Its open"

He still sounded very raspy.
I got in and closed the door behind me.

„You wished to see me mr Riddle"

I grinned sarcastically.
He rolled his eyes.

„I'm already regretting this."

„No you don't. No one wants to be alone when they're sick"

I said smiling and sat down on his chair in front of his desk.
It was highly awkward.

„Aaaaaaaand now?"

I said spinning in his chair.

„I don't know. Just be here and let me read in peace"

He looked back at the book in his lap.
I roled my eyes.
He wanted we to come over just to ... well be here?

„Can I at least watch a movie or something? Otherwise it's boring as hell and I won't stopp Talking"

„If you insist"

His tone was distant.
I didn't understand why I should be here when he obviously didn't cared.
But I decided to make the best out of it.
I grinned, got up and climbed on the other side of his bed.

He gave me a major side eye but said nothing.
I gathered every pillow I could find, wich weren't many, and made myself comfortable.
I searched for a movie and started it.

Tom didn't looked up once.
But he seemed not so tense than before.
I could notice a very small change in his attitude.

Mid movie I pulled out my phone and finally decided to answer the guys.
