bisexual? garrett watts au (completed)

channel

after that night, i have been working out in Shane's work out room more frequently, and i've been losing weight. i only work out at night, though.

i've been extra quiet, though, more quiet than what i usually would be but Ryland hasn't caught me again, so that's all i care about.

me and garrett usually facetime each other almost nightly, he's been trying to get me to start a new youtube channel, ive been denying the idea

"it wouldn't work out, no one would like me, we don't even know if people will like the video Shane is working on putting up on Thursday" it was Wednesday night, and Shane was finishing up the last bits of what we filmed the other day, so he could post tomorrow.

"you gotta be kidding me Astrid! you'd be A M A Z I NG! they're going to love you!"

"yeah, maybe i'll do it, only if they like me on Shane's channel."

"which they will," Garrett started.

"i doubt that-"

suddenly, Shane came bursting into my room, with his phone facing me, obviously recording.

"will you start a channel after this video?!"  he asks me, i hide my phone in my pocket , and feel my cheeks turn red.

"uh,, sure!"
i smile, he turns off his phone & smiles back at me.

"thank you for this, they're going to love you."

he walks out of my room and shuts the door, and i hear Garrett laughing, that adorable laugh of his,

"see? i'm not the only one who thinks that,"

i giggle; we end up talking on the phone until around 1am, then he falls asleep. i hang up and lay on my side, mentally preparing myself for the workout to come later tonight.

i sit up and slide out of bed, looking myself in the mirror, and sigh, i still could be doing better.

my body has thinned out a little bit, but i still have a fat chub hanging over my waist, i look at it and start to cry a little, and sat down on my floor, whimpering to keep quiet.

"Astrid?"

i gasp, and look at my phone, Garrett was still on the phone, i must have not hit the button fully or something.

"Astrid?" he asked again,

i take a deep breath and wipe my eyes.

"s-sorry i didn't mean to wake you, usually i hang up and let you sleep," i tell him, picking up my phone, only letting him see my eyebrows .

"what do you do after we hang up?" he asked me, i gulped.

"um sleep?" i said weakly.
Garrett huffs and rolls his eyes, taking off his glasses,
"Astrid, you and I both know that's a lie."
I take a deep breath,
"well, i work out. then i go to bed."  i tell him.
"what do you do when you work out, what time do you end up in bed?"
i sigh.
"i'm usually hit the hay around 4 or 5, depending on the day."
i could hear the disappointment in his sigh,
"what do you do?"
"run," i tell him, "run until i basically can't anymore, until i feel like puking and i'm dripping with sweat; then i take a quiet cold shower so i don't wake Ryland."

i hear him sigh, and my heart twists.

"we're hanging out tomorrow, don't work out tonight, okay?"

"okay." i lied, he told me goodnight, and we hung up.
