The better life

New roomate

While we were heading back Nicholas's house I realized that Matthew was blushing a little and looking at the ground looking a bit embarrassed. I decided to ignore it and keep walking. It was still weird seeing leaves of weird colors around, but I'll have to get used to it being my new home.

"H-hey I just wanted to say thank again for letting me stay with you," Matthew says out of the blue to me.
"It's no problem really, I'm just really kind hearted," I reply back smiling. He gives me a smile back and we head down the sidewalk as the sun starts to get higher in the sky, making it much hotter.

"Wow, it's getting hot fast," I say to Matthew wiping my head.
"I agree," He replied and sighed a bit. Nicholas's house shortly got into view and I guided him swiftly over to the front door and knocked on it.

"Oh, Dylan you're back... and you brought someone over?" Nicholas says
"Yeah, he recently got in a break up and that lead to him losing his home and I just wanted him to be able to stay somewhere," I replied to Nicholas so he would understand why.

"He's such a sweetheart..." Matthew muttered under his breath.
"What was that?" I asked him thinking I heard him say something.
"Nothing, just talking to myself," Matthew replied quickly and stiffened up.
"Alright, if you say so," I reply and giggle
"So can he stay?" I ask Nicholas.
"Yes he can but he'll have to share the room with you," Nicholas explained.
"That's fine," I reply and smile.
"Wow I get to share a room with him! What a dream come true!" Matthew thinks to himself and smiles big.
Nicholas lets us both inside and we show him the room that we'll be sharing.
"There's only one bed so I we can probably do you get one part of the bed and I get the other," I tell Matthew.
"Sure, that sounds fine; which side I get?" Matthew asked me.
"You will get the right side of the bed and I'll have the left side," I reply.
"Sounds good to me," Matthew replies and gives a little smile.
"Oh I forgot to ask! Are you hungry?" I ask Matthew
"Yeah, I'm pretty hungry, but you don't have to get me food if you don't want to," Matthew replied as his stomach growled.
"I'm going to get you food and you will like it," I reply and try to keep a straight face but I fail and giggle.
"What are you hungry for?" I ask him.
"Hmmm... a hotdog sounds pretty good," Matthew replies and his stomach growls again.
"I'll go cook 2 for you," I tell him and walk out to go make it.
I put the hot dogs on a plate and I stick it in the microwave and I cook it for a minute and a half. I then take it out and I put both of the hotdogs in a bun and I squirt some ketchup and mustard on them. I walk back into the room and I hand him the plate.
"Thank you so much!" Matthew said as he started to eat one of his hotdogs.
"It was no problem at all," I reply and sit on the bed.
"So.. can I know more about you?" I ask Matthew.
