Laughter filled my bedroom at three in the morning. my hair scrapped across the floor as i lifted my head up as i laughed.

"you were the one that choked on a junior mint," i said looking up at my ceiling. i watched at the fan blades swirled quickly cooling my room off.

"you threw it in my mouth." my best friend shawn said beside me. i turned my head to see him already looking at me. i smiled and shook my head.

"you told me to, so you could catch it." i said.

"and i caught it." shawn said taking his brown eyes off mine to look back up.

"yeah with your throat." as soon as i said that shawn and i erupted into laughter causing me to fall off the bed that i was dangling off of on the side. this only caused shawn to laugh even harder as he sat up. the laughter died down making the bedroom fall silent. i laid on my back on the hardwood floor and crossed my arms over my chest.

"i needed this." i said as shawn swung his legs over my bed and placed his feet on the floor.

"that is what i'm here for." shawn shrugged with a toothless smile. his phone buzzed causing him to pull it out of his pocket. he held his phone with both of his large hands and looked down. his messy brown curls fell as he read whatever it was. the corners of my mouth curved into a small smile as i admired him.

i sighed and looked back at my chipped finger nail polish. shawn and i were best friends, we have been since kindergarten. i always just saw shawn as a friend, but lately things have changed. every time i'm with him i'm always giddy and get butterflies. i know i shouldn't have a crush on my best friend, especially since he doesn't feel the same, but i just can't help it.

"i'm hungry, do you want to go get something to eat?" i asked attempting to get off the uncomfortable floor.

"uh," shawn put his phone back in his pocket and ran his fingers through his hair, "actually brianna wants me to come over." my heart dropped and my smile faded. i quickly replaced it with a forced one.

"oh okay, well have fun." i said trying to sound happy for him.

"thanks, see you tomorrow." shawn said standing up and walking to my door.

"yeah," i stuffed my hands in my back pockets and watched as shawn walked out, "see you tomorrow." i said in almost a whisper.

we're only friends.
