No longer Invisible

Chapter 25

Christopher P.O.V

I wake up making sure I don't make too much noise since I didn't want to wake up Naomi.

I go to the kitchen and get some water, again trying not to make much noise. I go back to the couch and slowly sit down. I watch her for a bit. I watch as she slightly moves around. I notice that she prefers to lie on her side and how her lips would slightly part.

"Dude are you watching her sleep?" I almost spill my water and turn around. "Carter make yourself known, please." He rolls his eyes.

"I didn't want to disturb you while you're being a creep."

"I wasn't being a creep." I said trying to defend myself. "Yes because regular people watch others sleep at 5 in the morning." he said in a very sarcastic tone.

"Just don't bring it up." I said going back to my water while he got up.

I finished my water before heading upstairs I walked into my room changed into my athletic clothes and grabbed my earbuds. After I go down to the gym in our basement.

I usually do a little workout on school days but on weekends I'm down here for hours. Today though I gotta cut it short since I got people over.

I put in my earbuds turning on Chase Atlantic. I do 20 minutes of stretching then go over to dumbbells I do bicep curls, lunges, lifting, and squats. I put the dumbbells down and get some water out of the fridge we have in here.

I go over to the cable machine and I change it to 35 I grab one of the side pulls and walk away from the machine standing in place for one whole minute before going to the other side and doing the same thing. I then do crunches, side planks, and kneeling while holding the side pull.

I walk outside stretching just a little before I do a light jog which turns into a run around the neighborhood till I find my way home.

Once I reach the porch I look at my watch and look at my progress from today which I'm pretty happy about. I take a second to breathe till I feel a tap on my shoulder. I turn around and see Trent.

I take out my earbuds and smile at him. "Hey, what you doing up so early?" I ask him.

"Forgot it was Saturday and thought I woke up late." I couldn't help but chuckle at this.

Trent takes school pretty seriously, especially since we'll be graduating in 7 seven months. I can't believe it's already October.

"What about you?" He asks I tell him about me working out. "Christopher I wanted to ask you something before I go."

I nod and we sit down on the porch swing. "Go ahead ask away." I look at him and he looks nervous and uneasy. I place my hand on his shoulder and he looks up at me.

"Are you alright Trent?" I ask him and he nods.

"Do you like Naomi?" He asks and I don't hesitate to answer. "Yes, I do." I see his face change from nervous to upset. "Trent what's wrong?" I ask him.

Trent shakes his head and gets up walking away. When he got up I swear tears. Why would he be crying? I got up and was walking down the stairs when the front door opened.

"There you are, get your ass in here. We're making waffles." Carter said looking annoyed.

I sigh and walk inside. "Where were you even going?" He asked. I decided it was best I didn't tell him what just happened. "I was gonna run a little more." I said. He nods and we walk into the kitchen. I see Naomi, Stacy, and Toby standing around.
