!TW: CRINGY!

I wipe my face.
Kai: "What do you want, Mateo?"
I asked, my voice wavers..

Mateo: "Why are you crying, weirdo?"
He leans against the stall.

Kai: ".... You... And my mum... "
My voice was quiet, though I tried to not make it noticeable.

Mateo: "You're mom? Why?"
He tilted his head.

Kai: "Uhm... Nothing."
Suddenly, he gently took my hand off my face...

Mateo: "She hit you? But she's... "

Kai: "My mum? She doesn't care. Ok if she did she wouldn't have hit me."

Mateo: "Wait...."
He says... I look up at him.

Mateo: "What did I do?"

Kai: "You had to ask the teacher for a pencil and when she gave you one a snapped. Then got sent to the office where I got hit.. "

Mateo suddenly pulls me up and wraps his arms around me.

Mateo: "I was just trying to make you mad.."

Kai: "You did.. "

Mateo just held me... For some reason my.. It was comforting... It felt nice...

He pulled his head back looking at me- my heart starts racing as I realized just how close his face was to mine... Then he shoved me away..

Mateo: "I was just trying to make you stop crying, it was annoying."

I fell back against the toilet... Honestly... I didn't care... Just they way he held me... It was warm...- no! I hate him...

Kai: "Wai-"

He walked out. I was baffled but... Felt different... I saw myself in the mirror- my face was so red! Ugh... He must've got weirded out... Wait... Why do I care? It's not that I like him... He has so much to hate! His annoying voice... His stupid fluffy hair... His brownie brown eyes... His... Ripped body... Gentle touch... Deep voi- STOP.... I can't be thinking this! No.... Ugh..

I stand up, walking to the mirrors, looking at myself.

Kai: "Maybe... I do like him... "

He turns the water on, cupping water in my hands, splashing water on my face.
