-Y/N's POV (Falling For A Fan)-
My eyes slowly fluttered open. Tiredly, I released a breath while rubbing my eyes.

CLAY:
"How you feeling?" His voice caught my attention.

I jerked my head to the right to see Clay laying down next to me on my bed. His expression was sad, but also a little nervous.

Y/N:
"I'm feeling better." I nodded slowly while sitting up, "I think the medicine helped. All of my pain is gone."

CLAY:
"I'm glad..." He pressed his lips together while staring at me a certain way.

His eyes were narrowed, and he had a semi serious expression.

Y/N:
"What's wrong...?" My eyebrows squished together.

He swallowed hard.

CLAY:
"Y/N...you fainted and felt awful because Mason poisoned those cupcakes."

My eyes widened as my lips parted in shock.

CLAY:
"I left earlier and got one of them tested at the hospital...the nurse informed me that it did in fact, have poisonous chemicals in it..."

I instantly sighed, beating myself up in my head for my stupidity over eating something my enemy made me.

Y/N:
"I'm so stupid..." I whispered while shaking my head.

CLAY:
"No you're not. There's no way you could've known." His lips curled down, "All that matters is that you're okay. Next time he comes around you, he'll have me to deal with."

He raised his eyebrows.

Y/N:
"Clay, no." I titled my head, "I told you that I didn't want you anywhere near him."

CLAY:
"Well I don't want him hurting you again." He clenched his jaw while looking away from me, "Seeing you on the ground today, Y/N...I hated it..."

My expression fell a little, as did my heart.

CLAY:
"Look..." He pressed his lips together while looking down, "I know we haven't known each other very long but...I need to know something..."

I nodded while squishing my brows together, having no idea where he was going with this.

CLAY:
"Was Mason your ex?" He frowned.

Y/N:
"No." I shook my head.

CLAY:
"He's not??" His eyes widened, "Then who is?"

I swallowed hard as my expression fell a little.

"You..." I thought to myself.

Y/N:
"Clay it's...it's not important..."

CLAY:
"To me it is. I wanna know it all." He admitted.

Y/N:
"Why...?"

CLAY:
"Because you're important to me..." He adverted his gaze, "I know we haven't known each other long which is why this is crazy..."

Y/N:
"What is?"

CLAY:
"Us..." He said quietly while locking our eyes.

Y/N:
"W—What do you mean...?"

CLAY:
"Y—You know, our...friendship..." He hesitated for a moment.

I bit the inside of my cheek with a sigh, being disappointed for a moment. I could've sworn he was going to say something else, but I guess I was wrong.

Y/N:
"Clay look, I value our friendship too but...I don't wanna talk about my ex..."

CLAY:
"Okay...w—what about...your..." He hesitated again, sighing to himself, "your son...can we talk about him...?"
