Just a little lie (Expensive Headphones//BMC)

Oversized hoodie

It was the next day and we had to get ready for school. my alarm goes off and I felt confused when I felt a presence next to me in my bed.

I hurriedly looked over to see rich still sound asleep even through my blaring alarm. (No surprise there, the man is a heavy sleeper)

I immediately remember the events of last night. Although we didn't do anything provocative, I felt a little embarrassed that we had fallen asleep curled up together. That in itself felt a little scandalous.

As comfortable and warm as I was in my bed, I had to suck it up because it was time for school.

I lightly shook rich and he didn't even budge. I had to resort to shaking him violently for him to finally groan in response.

"Mmmm..." I hear him.

"Rich, it's time to wake up. We gotta go to school remember?"

He abruptly woke up in a state of panic.

"Wh- what??? School!?? Dude!!"
I watch him scramble up off the bed and looked over my room.

"Hey, calm down, whats wrong?"
I asked confused at his sudden demeanor.

"Mikey!! The gym! And...and I'm not at my house! How am I supposed to get ready for school if my clothes and backpack and toothbrush aren't here? And my hair! It's a mess! I CANNOT go to school looking like this, wearing yesterday's clothes! This is embarrassing!" He said, pacing around my room in a panic.

I thought it was cute how much effort he still put into presenting himself as his best even after the squip.

"Rich, don't worry, you can borrow my clothes and we have extra clean toothbrushes you can use. On top of that, i have a comb and gel, there's no worries." I say grabbing his arm and trying to calm him down.

He allows me to move him towards the bed where he sits and lets out a sigh.

"And what of my book bag? My homework and Chromebook are in there." He says looking at his feet as if advising a plan in his head.

"Rich, we can easily just stop by your house before school to get it, don't worry so much." I say proceeding to change into fresh clothes.

As I put on my clothes I realized something, how the hell is this tiny man supposed to fit into my enormous clothes? Just the thought made me chuckle a bit.

"What is it?" Rich asks frowning at my chuckling.

"Nothing haha, well, I was just wondering how you will look wearing my clothes, they might be extremely baggy on you."
I smile at him just picturing him wearing anything but tight clothes

He huffs' "whatever man, toss me a hoodie and some pants, and give me a belt please."

I oblige and lend him a fresh pair of clothes, the smallest things I could find. To my surprise the pants fit him alright especially with the belt for more support. He then put on my hoodie and for some reason I blushed a bit.

It's not that I haven't noticed before that rich was an attractive guy, I've always thought so, I was just surprised to see him wearing my hoodie and to see how muscular he was under all of that. He just...he looked really cute in my hoodie. Especially with how oversized it fit him.  I realize I am staring and turn to look away.

"C'mon Rich. Let's get going" i say turning to grab my keys and my backpack.

After stopping by his house to sneak in and grab his missing things, we headed towards school.

Luckily his dad wasn't home because he works early mornings during the week, so grabbing his things wasn't very hard.

We finally walk into school and we both held hands as we walked. Honestly, after our kiss, and our private cuddling session last night, I grew more comfortable showing physical affection towards rich. I have kinda grown to like it. I didn't love rich or anything of the sort, I just kinda appreciated the physical contact. that's all. It was nice.

We sat together with our breakfast as we waited for the bell to ring, we got here a tad early so the bell wouldn't ring for another 30 minutes or so.

"I gotta go to the bathroom, I'll be right back" said rich getting up and heading towards the restrooms.

I nodded at him and continued to eat my breakfast. I began to wonder how Rich's progress was going with Jake. Come to think of it, we haven't even discussed the plan as of yet. I remember to take a mental note of that for when he gets back so we can talk about it.

I continued to eat my breakfast when suddenly a tall lanky figure appears in front of me.

It was Jeremy.
