Gus's P.O.V

"Hi Gus!" Luz says cheerfully as I sit down beside her in 4th period.

"Hey guys! How was your last class?" I ask, grabbing my pencil out of my bag.

"It was alright, I'm not the biggest fan of Mrs Clawthorne though." Skara replies before grabbing a peice of gum out of the package "Want one?"

"No thanks." I respond. I Don't really like the texture of gum, it's just not, I don't know, good? But if I actually say that people judge me, so I just decline most of the time.

"Suit yourself." She says, putting the container back I her bag.

"Anyways Gusss..." Luz drags out."

"Yeahhhhh?"

"Whats your opinions on Matty?" She asks in a unserious tone.

"What is that even supposed to mean?" I ask.

"I don't know really actually.. uh, how do you feel about the fact that he slept in your bed last night?" She says with a smug smile.

"HE WHAT?" Skara exclaims, this was new information to her.

"He slept in my bed...? By the way Luz, how the hell did you know that?" I reply hesitantly.

"I'm not deaf, you literally told me 2nd period. " She responds.

"Oh my God Gus," Skara said, shaking her head "But anyways carry on."

"Oh fuck, your right... but anyways it was fine." I say, turning back to face Luz.

"YEAH I KNOW I AM" Luz says before whispering something in Skaras ear. Skara nods I response, smiling a bit.

"What?" I ask, crossing my arms.

"Oh nothing..." Luz says, smiling before pulling out her phone.

"who are you texting??" I ask, attempting to lean over to see her phone. She pulls her phone out of view and sticks her tongue out at me.

"That's none of your business." Luz responds, smirking.

"Ooh, what are you saying?" Skara asks, looking over at the phone.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Luz : Hey Willow :3

Willow : Oh hey Luz, what's up?

Luz : Matt is in your class right now right?

Willow : Yeah he's sitting beside me rn?

Luz : Great! uhh can you ask him how he slept last night

Willow : what? why?

Luz : Just do it >:(

Willow : okay one second damn

Luz : thx :3

Willow : He said he slept pretty well, why?

Luz : Okay thanks c:

Willow : Why tho?

Luz : Oh nothing, enjoy the rest of your class! Bye!

Willow : Bye?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Luz and Skara start laughing.

"What? Who are you messaging?" I ask, getting annoyed.

"BACK LEFT CORNER! QUIET!" Mr Deamonne says sternly "Or I will have to separate you guys for the rest of the semester."

"Sorry sir!" I say, turning back to the front of the class.

"Hey Matty!" I say happily as I walk up behind him. He was waiting on the steps, checking his phone.

"Hi Gus!" Matt returns, smiling up at me.

"Ready to go?" I ask, smiling back at him.

"Yeah sure," He says as he outs his phone into his backpack and stands up.

"Great! I'll lead the way!" I say cheerfully, starting towards my house.

"Hey Gus?" Matt asks.

"Mhm?"

"Are you feeling okay? You were pretty tired earlier to be walking 30 minutes."

"Uhh yeah I should be fine." I yawn.

"Mhm okay.."

"Anyway, how was Music?"

"It was fine, although Luz randomly messaged Willow and started asking me questions.."

"That's who Luz and Skara were texting?!"

"You were there?"

"Uh yeah, I didn't know they were messaging you guys though."

"Oh, well they asked me how I slept last night for some reason, it was really weird."

"Well how did you sleep last night?"

"After the nightmare, pretty well honestly."

"Well atleast one of us got their beauty rest." I say jokingly, winking at Matty.

"Yeah sure, I'm going to make sure you get sleep tonight though. No offense, but you look like a mess right now."

"What is that supposed to mean?!"

"You look like shit."

"Wow thanks alot, that makes me feel really good about myself Shortie."

"Well no need to rub it in like that."

"Mmm, yeah I think there was."

Me and Matt eventually made our way to the house. By the time we got home it was going on 4 p.m.

"Wanna watch a movie or something?" I ask, opening the door to the house with the key under the mat.

"Sure!" He replies.

"Okay head upstairs, I'll make popcorn." I say, smiling.

"Okay! Don't kill yourself!" He yells as he runs up the stairs.

I walk down the hallway to the kichen and grab a bag if microwaveable popcorn off the shelf.

I put the bag in the microwave and turn it on. While it's cooking I grab a large bowl for it to go into.

Once it finished, I take it out of the microwave and pour it into the bowl. I throw the bag out, grab the bowl, and run upstairs.

"I got popcorn!" I say Cheerfully, sitting beside Matty on the bed.

"What do you wanna watch?"

"Avengers?"

"Ooh yes!" Matty replies, he picked out a movie and put it on.

Around 15 minutes into the movie I realize how close I am to Matt right now. Oh my God. He reaches over to the bowl to grab some more popcorn and I feel his arm rub against mine. For some reason I get uncomfortably warm. I've never felt this way before? What is this?

I feel myself slowly falling asleep about halfway in. I suspected that it was going to happen sooner or later so I just let myself fall asleep, head resting on the back if the headboard.
