Rody's POV:

I grab my bike and head out the door, dragging my bike alongside me as I hop on it and started riding to Vince's house. As I continue to peddle, I can hear my bike breaking. I really need a new bike.

Once I arrive at the bistro, I go to open the door, but it's locked, so I just kind of wait outside until Vince shows up and opens the door. "Thanks!" I day walking in, and he leads me to his apartment.

"So.. what do you want to do? I'm bored." I say smiling, but he stays silent for a moment."I honestly didn't think that for ahead, so I don't know." He says, shrugging "Oh uh.. well, we could watch TV?" I say, trying to suggest something. "..uh yea, that sounds good. we can watch a movie."

"Alright, what do you want to watch?" I say sitting on the couch "hm I mean, I got something we can watch." He says, turning on the TV as he walks back over to me and sits down beside me but has enough distance so that I can stretch.

The movie starts, and I lean back, trying to get somewhat comfortable. After 3 minutes into the movie, I realized it's a scary movie. My heart dropped to my stomach. I hate scary movies.

"Should I go make popcorn?" He asks, looking over at me."Uh yea, sure, that'd be nice!" I say smiling nervously, "Alright." He says, getting up and walking to the kitchen. Once he's there, I immediately start to tense up.

Why did he have to choose a scary movie of all things?! After a while, he comes back with the popcorn and sees me hugging a pillow that was on the couch as I watch the movie, my knees up to my stomach.

"Rody, are you serious." He says very clearly, holding in a laugh as he sits next to me, putting the popcorn in between us. "What are you talking about?" I say, smiling nervously again.

"Well, since you want to play dumb we'll just keep watching this then." He says, crossing his arms over his chest as he leans back with a small smile."ok, ok! Please change the movie!" I say, shaking him by his shoulders.

"Let me go idiot!" He yells at me as I continue to shake him after awhile he pushes me off with an annoyed look on his face "if you do that again I'm not inviting you over again" he says in a cold tone.

I smile and rub the back of my neck. "Oh, come on, don't be mad-" I was cut off by a loud noise from the TV, most likely a junpscare since we never turned off the TV.

"AHH!" I scream loudly, falling off the couch, but instead of actual manly scream, it was just high pitch, and girly Vince just started to laugh.

"That's what you get!" He said, continuing to laugh he was so pretty when he laughed. Wait, what? You know what? I'm just gonna ignore that. I thought Vince was pretty well, not that he isn't pretty, it's just.. He's my boss,
plus, I'm not gay.. right?

I'm snapped out of though when Vince extands his hand to help me up. "C'mon.."He said with a sigh I take his hand standing up, but I could see the struggle he went through while pulling me up. I kind of forgot he was thinner than me.

After he pulled me up, I just kind of stood there staring at him, still holding onto his hand i was zoning out looking at our hands together until he cleared his throat and took his hand away. That made me snap back into reality "oh sorry vince!" I say sincerely."It's fine.. anyways, what else should we do?" He says, changing the subject, but even after my face still felt warm.
