What do I answer? I've been staring at the kitchen counter for too long according to my mother because she gives me an annoyed poke against my upper arm. "Tell me why that boy was in your bed!" "He-.." "Good morning, mrs. Lester!", I get cut off by a slightly too happy Dan at my prefers. My mum relaxes and shoots a smile at Dan. "Good morning, Daniel." He playfully looks at me before turning to my mum again: "I hope it wasn't too weird finding us together in one bed, mrs Lester. Phil had a nightmare, that's all, and I'm not the one to just leave that be. I'm sorry if it wasn't aloud." She nods and apologises. "What in the world?", I ask Dan as soon as my mum's nowhere near anymore. "I just saved your ass, but at some point, you'll have to tell her. But I'm giving you all the time you need. I truly believe you're worth waiting for." I'm overtaken by his words, he steps closer and whispers in my ear: "So you better make it worth my while."

In the car he's texting someone, probably his parents to let them know about why he isn't home. The whole trip to school his words overtake all my other thoughts. So you better make it worth my while.

Above that; I'm also worrying about Cat, once inside the school gate I text her, not expecting an answer, but still. "Are we gonna act all couple-ish?", Dan asks in excitement. "We aren't a couple, Dan!" "So?" "No, we're not gonna act all couple-ish, bye." He goes to his "friends" and I go sit on the bench where I usually sit, minding my own business and trying to reach Cat once again.

Hey, are you okay with your mum?
-Phil

Cat.. Please answer so at least I know you're alive..
-Phil

Cat! I wanna know if you're okay??
-Phil

Out of all people it just HAD to be Daniel...
-Cat

Thank God! You're okay, right?
-Phil

Yes, I am. Let me ask you a question. Do you love him?
-Cat

The true answer? Or the answer that won't hurt you?
-Phil

You do love him, don't you?
-Cat

Yes..
-Phil

I need time to think
-Cat

Are you mad at me?
-Phil

No, bye.
-Cat

Bye
-Phil

-Dan's POV-

Pj walks up to me and a smile from ear to ear is what I am greeted with. "Two things,", he starts. "One, rude that you couldn't walk to school with me. Two, oh my god!" He jumps in the air and claps his hands multiple times like a happy young girl. How come I never saw he was gay until he told me? Soon enough, Chris follows him, also a smile plastered on his face, showing me that he already knows about the text I send' to Pj in the car. "Tell us what happened!", Chris demands. "Calm down, Chris. Let him decide that for himself", Pj calms Chris by moving his hands up and down in front of his waist. He takes a deep breath before turning at me: "Now... Tell us what happened!" Chris shoots a faked annoyed smile at Pj and I and then I start talking. "It was nothing special, he had a nightmare and I slept in his bed." I'm certainly not planning on telling them about Cat. "And how did you even get to his house?!", Chris exclaims. "I just went home with him after-.." "After what?" "After we went to my house", I say a bit hesitating. "He's lying", Pj confirms for Chris. "Okay, okay, fine,", I sigh. "We went to that rock. We've been there a few times, remember?" Pj nods and Chris talks, again. "Why were you there?" "The sunset." "Did you kiss?" "Damn it, Chris! Am I suppose to tell you my whole life?" "Yeeeeess! Now, come on! We don't have the whole daaaa-.." "Yes!" "Yes, what?" "Yes we kissed."

At the end of the lesson, our teacher holds Phil and I in the classroom for little while. "How's the tutoring going?" Phil was indeed suppose to tutor me, but all that has happened til now is a blowjob and the sunset. And a few other things.. When we both don't answer she asks us if we already made plans to meet up, on which we both respond with 'no'. "Well, make sure you figured something out before tomorrow." Phil and I both nod before turning around. "Bye, boys."

Phil playfully bumps his shoulder against mine once we're in the hallway: "What are we going to do about that?" "Tomorrow, we'll just tell her the plans we already made." His hand crushes on the brick wall, right beside my ear and he leans a little further in. "Am I actually gonna learn you stuff?" I plant my hands in his neck and pull him closer for a kiss. Which is soon cut off by a voice: "Oh! Look at me! I just had to walk in on you two!" To be more particular, Pj's sarcastic voice, soon followed by Chris'. "Yeah, we're so sorry", he laughs. Phil gives them an annoyed glare and disappears out of the hallway. "Doesn't your boyfriend like us?", Pj says, fake pouting. I start walking with them outside. "No, he just thinks you two have the same personality as Cherry and those people. But I already told him that I wouldn't hang out with you guys this much if you were like them."
