Sebastian's Pov

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

We had gone up to my room after the movie was over, Talon had said that it was his favourite movie and I could see he had a smile pretty much the whole way through it. We were just going to play some video games until we went to bed and I made him take my bed. I didn't want him to be uncomfortable.

The lights in my room were off except for some led colour changing lights I had on the floor.

I was about to turn on my PlayStation and tv when I turned to look at him. He was laying on my bed, his phone light illuminating his face in a pale blue colour and I looked him over.

He looked so cute just lying there, his brown hair laying on his head in a big mess, his soft skin, his almond eyes. I decided there that I definitely liked him as more than a friend because I couldn't stop staring at him. So I called his name.

He looked over at me and his phone spoke 'yeah?' for him. Oh how much I would give to hear his real voice.

My mouth moved faster than my brain could think and I spoke my thoughts aloud.

"I think I like you," was what I said and his face got surprised. I didn't know if I regretted saying it or not but there was no going back and his silence was scaring me. I know he's usually silent but his face showed no expression, and he didn't type anything into his phone. I was afraid he would get angry and our friendship would be ruined. He started typing and I nervously watched his fingers dance across the keyboard, waiting to hear what he entered.

"You like me?" the voice said, he moved into a sitting up position and he was staring back at me now.

I scratched the back of my neck and cursed his talking app because I couldn't read his emotions from the tone of his voice because he wasn't the one speaking.

"Yeah... uh sorry if that makes you uncomfortable. I shouldn't have said anything" I apologized, fuck, I messed up and now he thinks I'm weird. I started to apologize again but the text to speech cut me off before I could finish.

"No, no no, stop saying you're sorry"

"Sorry"

He chuckled, "can you say it again?"

I was a bit confused now. "Sorry? I thought you said stop?"

He laughed while he was typing. "No, the other thing..."

When I realized what he meant I breathed in and spoke again.

"I like you."

I saw him smile wide, showing his dimples and his fingers went back to typing away on his phone.

"I think I like you too."

When I heard his phone say his thoughts my fears were washed away and I smiled big like he was. I didn't think he would feel the same.

There was a kind of awkward silence between the two of us for a few seconds before he asked, "so what now?"

I thought about it for a second, I know, I'll take him on a date!

"Let me take you on a date the Friday after next, I'll make it the best." I proposed.

"Ok, deal" we smiled at each other and I turned on my tv and PlayStation, "so how about those games?"

I also got him some sweats and a t-shirt to change into so he didn't have to sleep and he went out in the hallway and to the bathroom.

While he was out I thought about how lucky I was to be going out on a date with a boy like him. Maybe I could help him open up too.
