Dani.
I sighed and leaned in my locker.
"Aye , you okay?"
I jumped. "Shit , Matt. You scared me."
He smiled and looked down.
He looks at me. "Anyways , you okay?"
"Uh. Sure. Sleepy."I say.
It's not a lie. I stayed up till three thinking about things.
He runs his fingers through his hair. "Alright well , the guys wanted me to tell you that we're all hanging out at my house after school and that you should come."He licked his lips.
Sexually. Jk.
I run my fingers through my hair. "Okay , I'll be there."
He slowly nodded and turned away.
"And Matt?"
He looked at Me.
"Is it hard for you to make eye contact with everyone , or is it just me?"
A smile crept onto his face.
He slowly walked off.
I chuckled and closed my locker.

I sighed and closed my eyes.
Niykee Heaton's lyrics speak to me.
Honestly.
"Are you not going to Matt's?"Kat asks , after yanking my headphones out.
Girl , I'll shoot you if you touch my headphones again.
I yawned. "No , I'm gonna catch up on some much needed sleep."
She nodded. "I'll tell Matt."She exits.
I chuckled and laid under my covers.
°°°
I felt hands on my side , shaking me lightly.
"Dani , wake up."
I opened my eyes. "Matt?"
He smiled. "Yeah , Kat told me you weren't coming , so I decided to come over."
I smiled. "You're dumb."I rolled over.
"But I'm likeable."He lays beside me.
"You should feel special."I say.
"Why?"
"I never let anyone touch the same bed I'm in."
"Aw , so you like me."
"Maybe."
He turns toward me. "Dani."
"Hm?"
"Your music is hella loud.."
Oh , it's still on.
I changed the song to All I Want by A Day to Remember.
"Why do you wanna listen to this?"
"Cause. The music. It speaks to me."
•••
"Sh , don't wake them up."
*snap*
"Erase that , or I'm gonna slice your throats while you're sleeping."I blurted.
"Wow , okay."Nash says.
