"Mum, I'm home" I shouted as Harry and I walked through the front door. "We're going up to do some school work."

"We?" She asked, poking her head around the corner.

"Yeah, this is my friend Harry."

"Hello Harry! Nice to meet you, I'm Jay. Are you staying for dinner Harry?"

"N-no I'm-"

"Yeah he is, we're going to eat in my room though because we have loads of work."

"Well okay then, it'll be ready in a little bit." She smiled and went back to the kitchen.

I dragged Harry upstairs and shut my bedroom door. "Sorry about that." I told him.

"I-its fine I guess, but you know we don't really h-have that much work? Its only one page."

"I know. Please just stay until after dinner."

"O-okay."

-----------------

By the time we finished the work, dinner was ready.

"Boys, dinner!" My mum yelled up the stairs.

We went down, grabbed our plates and immediately went back up stairs. Since we were done with the assignment we just decided to talk and watch a show. Harry insisted I watch Skins since it was "shocking and wrong" that I hadn't watched more than two episodes of it. We started with the third season, he said it was much better than the first and second. By the end of the first episode he made me admit that it was actually pretty good.

"I mean...its okay I guess."

"okay? Just okay?"

"Fine its good! Are you happy?"

"Yes." He smiled. "Happy, and s-still hungry."

"You can have mine if you want it." I pushed my plate toward him.

"Y-you haven't even eaten any though?"

"Yeah, m'not hungry." I shrugged.

His face changed from the smiled he had a second ago to a concerned frown. "T-thats what you said earlier."

"Yeah, because I wasn't hungry then, and I'm still not."

"A-are you okay?"

"I'm fine. Look, just eat it okay? You said you were hungry, I'm not hungry, so have mine."

"Y-you're sure?"

"I'm sure!" I felt bad immediately after saying it, it sounded more like me yelling at him than just reassuring him that everything was fine. "Sorry, look..Just eat it, please?" I was legitimately ready to start begging him to eat it. I couldn't go back down stairs with a full plate.
