Neighbors (a Hayes Grier fanfic)

chapter 12~ carnival

*Hayes' POV*

I woke up the next morning on Brooke's couch. "What happened?" I thought to my self. I looked around and everybody from Brooke's party were sound asleep around me. "Oh yeah! Brooke's party... I almost for-" I was cut of my the sound of my stomach growling. I was hungry!

I quietly went up the stairs, careful not to wake anybody up. I made it up the stairs and the smell of pancakes filled the room. It smelled so good! I walked into the kitchen to find Amy (Brooke's mother) cooking pancakes. I looked on the counter and found a humongous stack of pancakes.

"Good morning, Amy," I told her.

"Good morning, Hayes."

"That sure is a big stack of pancakes!"

"Well, I have to feed everybody from the party, including the boys," I laughed. The Magcon boys sure do eat a lot! "Go ahead help yourself!"

I grabbed three pancakes and put syrup on them. I walked into the dining room and began eating.

When I had finished my first pancake, Brooke walked into the dining room. She plopped down at the table.

"Are you tired?" I asked her. She nodded.

Brooke began to eat her pancakes. Before we knew it everybody was up and eating pancakes.

•2 hours later•

Everybody had finally left Brooke's house. Well except Brooke, William, and I. William was staying at Brooke's for 2 more days. Then he would fly back to California.

"Brooke, can I talk to you?" William asked her.

"Of course you can!"

"I mean in, like, p-private"

Why would he want to talk to her in private? They can say anything in front of me, I don't mind. They walked into the dining room. I tried listening to their conversation, but I only heard little peeps of words. They came back into the living room. Brooke sat next to me, and William next to Brooke.

"Hayes?" she asked me.

"Yes?"

"William and I ar-" she was cut off by her phone ringing. She opened her text and read it, smiling. She put her phone down. "As I was saying, William and I are going to hang out tomorrow, because it's his last day here, and I think you and William should hang out today, to get to know each other," she told me.

"That sounds like a great idea," I told her. I looked over at William who was looking over at me.

"Yeah."

"We should go to the skate park," I told William. He nodded in agreement.

"Good!" Brooke said. "And you don't have to hang out right now! I meant later that night!"

"What are you going to do while we're gone?" I asked Brooke.

"Um, I'll probably just stay here and clean up from this party," she sighed.

"William and me will help you now, Won't we William?" he nodded. The three of us got up and cleaned the house, and the pool from the party.

*Brooke's POV*

•Later that night•

I watched as William and Hayes skated down the road towards the skate park. They turned right and were out of sight.

"okay you can come now," I texted Jack Gilinsky.

(A/N// I'm not going to say Gilinsky every time, just Jack, but know which Jack I'm talking about haha.)
