☆"Thinking Of Him"☆

Jake was struggling to fall asleep. He couldn't stop thinking of him. He couldn't get rid of Carrington out of his mind.

He groaned softly and covered his face with his pillow as he is laying on his back. Before he sits up and placed the pillow behind his head. He rolled over again, trying to sleep but he just couldn't!

"Ugh!" He exclaimed and sat up again, tossing the pillow towards his bedroom floor.

Carrington was sitting in his room, bored as ever. He had finished making a TikTok a while ago and was now scrolling through his phone, watching the videos he’d already made.

Suddenly, he felt the need to go see Jake. He had no reason for it, but he just *needed* to.

Jake still struggling with sleep. Sat up and gripped at his hair in annoyance. He didn't know why he was thinking of Carrington... especially his roommate in romantic ways.

Carrington finally put his phone down and got up from his bed. He opened the door to his room and began walking to Jake’s.

He didn’t bother knocking before entering, and he was glad that Jake’s door was unlocked.

He pushed the door open, leaning against the door frame with a smirk on his face.
“You awake?”

"Holy–" Jake got startled when he heard Carrington's voice. He looked over. "..Shit– yeah."

Carrington chuckled at Jake’s reaction, walking further into the room. He sat down on the edge of the bed and looked at Jake with a smirk.“Can’t sleep?”

"Yeah" Jake replied, looking at Carrington. "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Carrington shrugged, still smirking. He moved a bit closer to Jake, now sitting directly next to him.“I don’t know, I just feel like teasing you a bit.”

Jake groaned as he laid on his bed again. Grabbing the pillow from the ground. "Ughh, im not in the mood"

Carrington laughed softly, amused by Jake’s reaction. He took the pillow from him and tossed it to the side.

“Aww, come on. Don’t be a party pooper.”
He laid down next to Jake, resting his head on his hand and looking at him with a playful expression.

Jake moved Carrington away and rolled over so his back is facing him.  "I can't sleep and you being here is making it harder," he huffs.

Carrington pouted as Jake moved away from him.“You’re no fun, you know that?”

He rolled over too, now lying on his side facing Jake’s back. He reached out and poked his shoulder.

Jake rolled over again and faced Carrington. "Okay, what?" He asked with a small smile.

Carrington smiled back, happy that he was finally getting Jake’s attention.

“I just want to talk. You’re so boring, you know that?”He reached out and gently poked Jake’s nose.

"Wow thanks," Jake said, it went over his head. He scrunched his face when his nose got touched.

Carrington chuckled at Jake’s reaction to his nose being touched. He continued to poke his face, now moving to his cheeks and chin.“You’re cute when you scrunch your face like that, you know.”

Jake blushed a bit. He rolled over again so his back is facing Carrington again. "What do you waaaaant? I'm tired"

Carrington laughed again, finding it adorable how flustered Jake got. He scooted closer to him and wrapped his arms around his waist, pulling him closer so his chest was pressed against Jake’s back.“I want to keep annoying you until you give in and stay awake with me.”

Jake couldn't help but smile. His heart melting at the touch from his crush. He looked over his shoulder. "Fine, only for a bit"

Carrington smiled back, pleased that he had won. He nuzzled his face into the crook of Jake’s neck, enjoying the feeling of being so close to him.

“Good. I was getting bored all by myself in my room.”

"Yeah? and i couldn't sleep because i was thinking about you" Jake said as he faced Carrington.

Carrington’s eyes widened slightly in surprise at Jake’s confession. He pulled away from his neck and looked at him, a smirk on his face.

“Oh really? You were thinking about me? How cute.”

Jake immediately turned red when he realized that he said that out loud.

Carrington chuckled at how flustered Jake got. He found it adorable how easily he blushed.

"Ca–can we sleep like.. together.. not like– that but you know.. sleep." Jake stammered.

Carrington raised an eyebrow at Jake’s suggestion, a smirk still on his face. He pretended to think about it for a moment, before nodding.“Sure, we can sleep together. I don’t mind.”

Jake laid his head on Carrington's chest as soon as he heard this permission.

Carrington wrapped his arms around Jake, holding him close to his chest. He ran his fingers through Jake’s hair, enjoying the feeling of having him so close.

“Comfy?”

"Yeah, im actually tired now" Jake yawned as he melted into the touch of his hair being played with.

Carrington chuckled softly, continuing to run his fingers through Jake’s hair. He felt a warmth in his chest as he held him close, and he couldn’t help but feel protective of him.

“Then go to sleep, dummy. You need it.”

Jake sleepily laughed before he shuts his eyes.

Carrington smiled as he watched Jake fall asleep. He continued to hold him close, his fingers still running through his hair. He felt a sense of peacefulness wash over him as he listened to Jake’s soft breathing.

After a while, he spoke softly, making sure not to wake him up.

“Goodnight, Jake. Sweet dreams.”

Jake sleepy mumbled, "I love you.." as a confession.

Carrington’s eyes widened in surprise as he heard Jake’s sleepy confession. He was stunned for a moment, not expecting those words to come out of his mouth.

He looked down at Jake, who was still asleep in his arms, and felt his heart skip a beat.

He didn’t know what to say or do, so he just continued to hold him, his mind racing with thoughts.

He couldn’t believe that Jake had just said those words to him,

and he didn’t know how to feel about it. But one thing was for sure - he was falling for him even more.

Carrington took a deep breath, trying to calm his racing heart. He looked down at Jake again, who was now snoring softly in his arms. He couldn’t help but smile at the sight.

He leaned down and pressed a gentle kiss to the top of Jake’s head, whispering softly

“I love you too, Jake.”
