After class had ended we went to our lunch, there was two but Chris,Matt,Nick, Blake and I all had 2nd lunch together.

I kept my distance from Chris when I was talking to Matt and Nick, he gave me a weird look but I ignored it, I was gonna explain later but right now I wanted to make a point to Blake that I did not have a thing for Chris, I was obviously lying to myself.

"Go, I know your trying to prove your point y/n, I know you like the back of my hand" Blake shooed me away, "no I don't, get that through your head" I rolled my eyes picking at the lunch in front of me.

"Y/n, go" Blake looked angry that I wouldn't go talk to Chris "why Blake? Why do you want me to go talk to him so bad" I asked furrowing one of my eyebrows "I don't but he keeps looking over here all confused" he said using his head to point to Chris, when I looked over he was looking, not taking his eyes off of me and Blake. I let it go and let lunch pass.

6th period came around and it was another class me and Chris had with each other "what the hell was all that about, ignoring me and talking to Matt and Nick?" He said, he didn't seem mad just sort of hurt.

"I was trying to prove a point to Blake, it doesn't matter, I'm sorry" I apologized, "it's fine" he said, I could tell he meant it and would let it go "we're out in the workshop today" my teacher said, we weren't gonna do anything he just wanted us to pretend we were, in the same workshop there was a gated part for the metal and welding, Chris and I went in there to look at any projects that were being done.

"I like that one" Chris said pointing to the one that looked kinda like a penis "of course you do" I hit his stomach, he grabbed me hand and pretended to hit my shoulder "you don't want all this smoke y/n" I couldn't help but laugh at his choice of words, I hit his shoulders, he hugged my waist and pretended to play drops with me, something about it felt less like a game of drops and more like a touch I couldn't explain, felt good for him to hug me, even if this was just a game of drops, he rarely hugged me.

I got a text from Blake, "meet me in science hall, we gotta talk" I would've expected my heart to sink but it didn't, I really just didn't care.

After 6th I went and met Blake "I see how you act with Chris, I know you love him, so we're done" was I supposed to feel upset, because I wasn't "ok" I walked away, loss of words to even say.

I went to my last class which was art "hey" Chris smiled "hey" I smiled back "Chris why do you pretend we're just friends?" I asked, his face filled with confusion "what?" He asked "we aren't just friends and you know that" I felt like saying that was a mistake but it was now or never.

"I know, but your with Blake and your my bestfriend" he said, I felt a bit relieved "we broke up like 5 minutes ago" I said, his gaze softened "I'm sorry" he was sorry? For what? "Why, I'm glad, I saw him with some dirty blond earlier and he just didn't care" I shrugged

We got our work done and talked til the bell rang, we walked together to the parking lot where Matt would take all of us home, we got to the van first "I really like you y/n" I looked at him "you do?" I asked making sure I heard him right "I do" he said "I like you too Chris" I said giving him a kiss on the cheek, his smile became bugger than ever and his cheeks were as red as roses.

"Good to know" he said putting his arm around my shoulder pulling to closer.

"You guys ready?" Matt asked walking up to the van "yeah" Chris and I smiled "ok?" Nick said as he got in the van.

Im glad we are more than just friends.
