As I read the book Ian went back to the kitchen to check on the mac and cheese. After a while of trying to read I set the book down. All I could think about was that I almost saw Ian fully naked, and I feel like an idiot for admitting to being embarrassed. I groaned and tossed my head back.

"I'm such a weirdo, what's wrong with me?" I muttered.

"I don't think you're weird, the food's ready by the way." Ian said laughing. I blushed furiously.

"Oh... cool." I winced at my awkwardness and hurried after Ian.

"So, it probably isn't the greatest, but it's then only thing I can make without burning down the house. Be thankful." Ian explained handing me a bowl. I nodded and pulled my medicine out of my pocket.

"So, do you have to take those all the time? What else are you allergic too?" he asked as I swallowed the small pill.

"Yes, and I'm only allergic to peanuts, oranges, and losers." Ian nodded, looking as if he had a million more questions to ask. We fell into an awkward silence.

Say something you loser!

"Did you know that you have these small tendon thingys in your heart? After traumatic or very stressful events they can break, and apparently you can die from them. So technically you can die from heart break." I explained staring into my bowl. After a few seconds of silence I looked up. Ian's spoon was to his mouth like he was going to eat, but his face had 'what the fuck' written all over it.

"Sorry, that was weird," I stood up,"I should be going. I have losers to go watch after. See you later, maybe. Uh, thanks for the food." I walked into the living room, grabbed my bag and tried my hardest not to just run out the door.


"Please don't tell me you said the weird heart thing to him." Amos cried as I told them about my 'Sexy time' with Ian as Amos called it.

"I did... and then I bailed." I groaned. Luke smacked me upside the head as Cass shook his head.

"Bro that's not cool. You ate, creeped him out, amd then left. Honestly how did people date you. I feel Ian," Azrael said shuddering.

Amos laughed,"Why you feeling Ian up Azrael? What happened to Mason?"

Azrael punched Amos. Soon everyone started fighting as I yelled about my Ian problem. After we all settled down they began to try and cheer me up. They watched my favorite movies, ate my favorite food, and played Mario Kart. Nothing really helped though, all I could think about was Ian's weirded out face.

"That's it. I'm done seeing you be this pathetic. You're gonna call him." Luke said trying to grab  my phone out of my back pocket.

I turned around,"NO, STOP TOUCHING MY ASS!"

Amos ran his hands over Cass's chest,"E look I'm touching your ass!" Cass laughed nervously.

Azrael pulled me by my hips towards him and leaned over where his face was inches from mine, I was about to ask him what he was doing went I felt a hand grope my butt, then I felt my phone leave my pocket.

"Luke!" I shouted as he unlocked my phone. I heard the phone ring.

"Shhh, it's ringing." Luke muttered as he put the phone on speaker, then I heard Ian answering the call.

"E? Hey, look I'm sorry about earlier. You didn't have to leave, I was just, I was just surprised and I was busy having an existential crisis over what you had said. And uh, yeah. That was pretty cool though, just imagine, every time someone says heart break won't kill you I can be like beeeeeech! Lemme tell you something!" Ian rambled.

Cass and Amos were on the floor trying not to laugh while Azrael repeatedly hit his head on the couch. I snatched the phone away from Luke and ran to lock myself into the bathroom.

"Emmanuel?" Ian asked nervously.

"No no it's cool, yeah." I reassured him.

"Oh okay..." he said.

"Uh, thanks for the- NO AZRAEL STOP!" I yelled as he opened the door after picking the lock.

"E? Are you okay?" Ian asked amused.

"Yeah, yeah it's ju- AMOS NO STOP! IAN I'VE GOT TO GO I'LL TEXT YOU!" I yelled as they began to dog pile on me. I heard Ian laugh then hang up. Luke and Cass dragged me out to the hallway and into Amos's room. Once I cleared the door they dropped my legs and bombarded me with questions.

"What did he say?" Luke asked 

"Is he creeped out and doesn't want to see you anymore?" Azrael said.

I rolled my eyes,"No, he didn't say that. Shut up Jew boy. Anyways he just said it was cool and had an existential crisis over it."

"Awwwwwwwwwa! You guys can have existential crisises together! You about life and song lyrics, and him about whatever the hell he has them about!" Cass fangirled. Amos smiled at Cass as they started talking about ship names and Ian's and I's future children. Eventually Luke joined in and Azrael started stalking his crush Mason on Instagram.

I texted Ian.

Hey, sorry about that. My losers were being assbutts.

Ian the Cutie💚:

Lol it's cool, why do you call your friends losers?

I laughed and looked at my friends, they weren't losers. They were great, always there for me.

Idk i just do lol

"E!" Cass shouted.

"What!" I yelled back.

"Louis or Miguel!" Amos asked before Cass could talk. I groaned and joined them in  their planning of my future.
