Chapter two

936 30 15
                                    

As soon as Caspar finds the will to drag himself out of his bed and get dressed, we race down to the train station and jump on the first train that pulls up which is heading to Brighton, handing our tickets over in a rush.

I widen my eyes at Caspar once we finally make it onto the train after nearly missing it, he smiles sheepishly before giving a small
"sorry!"

Cute. No, shut up Joe.

Seconds after the train starts moving, Caspar is face palming his bag on the table and sighing heavily.

I glance up at him from my phone.
"What's up?"
I ask cluelessly, knowing exactly what it is he's just realised.
"I forgot to bring my tablets for my-"
"Dog allergies? Got it covered!"
I smirk, pulling a small jar of pills from my pocket and handing them over to Caspar.

"I wanted to see how long it'd take you to remember."
"Thank God! you're a life saver Joe! Ily lots!"
I roll my eyes at him, but I can't help this strange sudden feeling of happiness and pride come over me.

"First, you're welcome, second, never ever say 'ily' out loud again."
I joke, brushing off the feeling.
"Sorry Suggy!"
He giggles, stuffing the jar into his bag in front of him before turning his attention back to his phone - he's probably playing 'Agar.io' by the look of concentration on his face.

It's a cute face. Okay no, I seriously need to stop. My best friend isn't cute.

I need to distract myself. I start to hum to myself softly, which soon turns into full-on singing without me even realising.

"Your voice is beautiful Joe."
I hear the South African say, my head snaps upwards and my eyes meet with Caspar's.
"Thanks Casp"
I try to say calmly, but I can feel my face heating up.

Why is is this even affecting me? Caspar always compliments me - it's just when he does it's always as a joke or for the camera, but it's like he was being deadly serious and neither of us are even vlogging. Why would he -

My thoughts are cut short.

"Aw Joe you're blushing!"
Caspar grins.
"Well, you do things to me Casp."
I chuckle, attempting to pass it off as a joke. It seems to work as Caspar shakes his head and looks down again at his phone, still with a smile on his face.

Seriously Joe just keep your chill, Caspar is your roommate not a girl you fancy.
I tell myself mentally.

I take a deep breath and divert my attention back to my phone, knowing this is going to be a long ride.
