I Hate Him. {Gustholomule}

Chapter 6

Gus's P.O.V

Holy shit, what just happened?

I stare at Matt, wide eyed and smiling. He's staring back at me, a shocked expression on his face. His jaw was hanging open and his face was bright red.

"I-I'm sorry I didn't mean to-" He exclaimed in a hurried voice before getting cut off by my lips meeting his again. I pull away after a second or two, looking at him with a genuine smile.

"Respectfully, shut the fuck up you loser." I say with a wink before getting up off the floor.

"Don't be telling me what to do. Just because we kissed a few times doesn't mean you get to boss me around twerp." He scoffed, getting up off the floor aswell and walking to the closet.

"You just got out of there, there's no point of going back in." I teased as I sat on the bed.

"I'm not gay." He groaned as he grabbed a sweater out if the closet and took it off the hanger.

"Bitch what." I sighed, laying back on his bed. He like actually needs to stop lying to me right now.

"Nothing~" He hummed as he took his sweater and shirt off. I turned onto my side to face him, my cheeks turning pink at the sight of his upper body, which was littered with bruises and scars. Matt noticed this, putting his sweater on quickly walking to the door, closing it. "And I'm the gay one huh?" He teases as he sits beside me.

"Yeah you really are." I reply, sitting up. "Your the one who kissed me first."

"Yeah but I didn't mean it." He sighed laying down. on the bed. "It was for research purposes, and plus, your the one who asked."

"The fuck kind of research are you doing?" I asked, getting off the bed and walking over to the closet and grabbing one of Matt's sweaters.

"Hey! Sharing is not caring in my room Goops." He groaned, turning his head to face me.

"Suck it up buttercup." I replied, taking off my sweater and putting his on. It was honestly really comfortable. I walked back over to his bed and layed down beside him.

"My bed, not yours Gus." He said, rolling on his side to face me.

"I'm practicing."

"Practicing what?"

"We have to share this bed for a month or maybe more you know? We got to get used to it sooner or later." I sighed.

"No. your sleeping on the floor."

"No thank you, I'm quite comfortable actually." I grinned, turning to face him.

"AHEM." I heard come from the door. We looked over to see my dad standing in the doorway.

"Oh- hey dad." I say nervously. sitting up on the bed. Matt followed, sitting beside me, wide eyed and bright red.

"I have your stuff, and I bought a pixie pizza for dinner, come get some." He said, dropping the bag by the door and walking away.

"Oohhkay then, let's go I guess?" I said, getting off the bed. Matt nodded, following behind me as I walked downstairs. I walk in to see my dad and Matt's dad sitting at the table, already eating.

We sat down on opposite sides of the table, glancing up at eachother multiple times throughout the meal. After I finished my food, I walked into the kitchen, washed my plate, and went back up to Matts room. I pulled out my scroll to see new messages from Hunter.

"Whatcha doing?" Matt asked, sitting beside me.

"Messaging Hunter. They want me to go to the owl house for a bit."

"Well why dont you go?"

"Because I thought it was kinda rude since I'm at your house I don't know."

"I don't care, do whatever you want."

"Do you want me to ask if you can go?"

"I don't think they like me, but if you want to, go for it."

Hunter : tf you left me on read-

Gus : is it okay if I bring someone?

Hunter : uhm, yeah I guess if you want. I don't see the problem. Just make sure hooty doesn't eat them on your way in.

"Who's Hooty?" Matt asked, looking over at my scroll. I quickly closed it before responding.

"The house demon. He's cool once you get to know him." I reply, hopping off the bed. "We should probably get going now, let's go." I said, running down the hallway, Matt trailing behind.

"Hey Dad, were going out for a bit, okay?" I yelled into the living room where I could see our dad's watching flyer derby on the crystal ball.

"Yeah just be home by 8!" He called back.

"Okay cya!" I replied, grabbing Mattys wrist and running outside. "Do you want to walk or fly?" I asked.

"How longs the walk?" He replied.

"Like 20 minutes from here I think."

"Uhh, fly I guess." He replied with a shrug
