"What was that?" Katie laughed.
"Excuse me?" I said confused.
"Shiro totally just tried to hold your hand." she crossed her arms and smirked at me.
I feel my ears burn. "He did not."
'Did he?' I think.
I shake my head and walk back into my room. I sit on my bed and look at what we've done so far for the project. It's almost done since I am really good at Astronomy.
I put it all in a folder and a little paper falls out.
'Hmm? What's this?" I pick it up and flip it over.
It was a poorly made stick drawing. One had a arrow pointing towards it saying "Matt" and another arrow was pointing towards one that said "Shiro".
I giggled and walked over to my board and hung it up. Even though it wasn't drawn well it was still cute.
I stared at it for another moment then continued to clean my room.
-time skip-
After I was done with my shower I laid down in my bed and grabbed my phone.
Ding.
I got a new message. It was from Shiro.
'Hey thanks for letting me come over today and eat dinner with your family. Is it okay for me to come over again tomorrow?'
I stare at my screen for a minute before responding.
'No problem, my parents enjoy when friends come over and sure we can just ride the bus or your car lol.'
Fuck.
Did I just call Shiro my friend.
He probably doesn't notice me enough as one.
Ding.
'Haha alright sounds like a plan to me. And also, uh, would you like to hang out this weekend or something? I would like to get to know you better.'
'Yeah sure, just tell me when and where! :)'
'Awesome. Well goodnight Matt. Sleep well :)'
'Goodnight Shiro. You sleep well too.'
I look at the time on my phone and it reads 11 pm.
I'm still not tired.
I lay on my back and look up at my ceiling before an idea pops up in my head.
I smile and bounce out of my bed.
I grab a bunch of string lights and start hanging them up.
-time skip-
I turn my lamp off and my lights on and lay back down on my bed.
I look up and then every star constellation is up and glowing.
I look at my phone again.
3:32 AM.
I put it down and keep staring and admiring my ceiling.
I smile to myself and I grab my blanket that has a bunch of UFOs on it.
And I slowly sink into a deep sleep.
