Chapter 6

Key:
Favorite movie: (f/m)
Your POV

"Wellll since there doesn't seem to be anything we all can or wanna do, what about watching a movie or show?" Nash asked.
"If (y/n)'s ok with it that sounds good." Hayes said.
"Alright, that sounds good. What do you guys wanna watch?"
Nash screamed, "Horror movieeeeee!!!!!! (Y/n) what's your favorite one?"
"Ummm I've actually never seen a horror movie, it's not really up my alley."
"You've gotta see one!!! Maybe we can have all the guys over some night and we'll watch a really good one." Hayes said.
I'm not scared or anything, it's just I've never really been one for the scary movies. Seriously! I watched Stranger Things and for months after I felt like the demigorgan was following me. I think Hayes saw that in my eyes, and understood immediately somehow before Nash did.
"Nash, (y/n)'s the guest. Let's let her pick the movie, yeah?"
"Ooookayyyyyyyyyyy." Nash was just joking, but did a good job of making it look real. He rolled his eyes and slouched over a little bit, but suddenly straightened back up when he realised what movie I was going to pick.
"No, no no no no no. Hayes, let's not let her pick the movie. I know what she's gonna pick."
"Why what's she gonna pick?"
At that point we both turned to Hayes and said, "(F/m)." I smiled, Nash groaned, and Hayes was still confused. "I've never seen it, what's it about?"
Nash turned to him and screamed, "What's wrong with you?! Now she's definitely gonna make us watch it. Greaaaaaaat."
"Nash, you don't have to but Hayes I'm sorry, you have to cause you've never seen it before."
"Ok."

Nash's POV

I don't know what's wrong with my brother, normally he would...well honestly I don't even know right now. Hayes is acting so different than he's ever acted around (y/n) before, I'm still putting my money on the possibility that he likes her...like a lot. Matt and I made bets, he thinks Hayes doesn't like (y/n) and I do. He's probably just jealous, at (y/n)'s "welcome to LA" or whatever we called it party, Matt kept trying to flirt with her, but she never picked up on any of the signals. I do know for sure that she definitely likes Hayes though, it's real obvious to me at least, but no one else. She's done a pretty good job of hiding it! But, she forgot that I know her better than she knows herself, and same goes for Hayes. Speaking of Hayes, he's still clueless, like when we tried to play tag.
"Hayessssss, what's goin on? Normally you'd put up a fight." I knew this was pointless to ask him, but for me it was his test.
"I don't know, it's probably a good movie."
Yeah, he likes her.

Your POV

"Alright, ready to watch the movie?" I said, smiling at Hayes. He said yeah and smiled back, and opened the door for me. I turn around to jokingly glare at Nash, and say, "Naaaaaash are you surrrrre you don't want to watch it with us? It'll be funnnnn...." I try to drag out my words as much as possible, teasing him.
"Nah, I'll leave you two to it." Nash smiled at me, and I knew for sure that he knew I liked Hayes. Like a lot.
Hayes just shrugged, and we left Nash out there.
"Is it on Netflix?" He asked me.
"Yeah, do you want me to pull it up?"
"Sure, I'll get the popcorn going." He handed me the remote, but faltered. "You do like popcorn right?"
I looked at him like he's crazy. Who doesn't like popcorn??? He just continued to stare at me, waiting for an answer.
"Who doesn't?" I think it came out audible, but he's still staring at me. Man, I could get lost in those beautiful blue eyes forever. But, the moment had to end sometime. Nash walked in (really loudly) and just stared at the scene. Hayes was slightly leaning over me, and we were still staring into each other's eyes. Surprisingly, nothing was awkward between Hayes and I, it felt right. But with Nash in the picture, that made it weird. He decided the moment was over.
"HEY GUYS WHATCHA DOIN?!" He screamed at the top of his lungs. Hayes jumped a bit, and I immediately wondered what he'd been thinking. There was a small moment of silence, then Nash brought the sound back into the room.
