ch. 22

— morning —

wyatt felt himself slowly wake up, and he opened his eyes. memories from last night flooded back to him immediately when he looked at jaeden in his arms. he felt a smile tug at his lips and he removed his arms, sitting up. he rubbed his eyes and swung his legs off the bed. he stood up and looked around the room.

it was a little smaller than the average sized room.

jaeden stirred in his sleep, and wyatt glanced at him.

wyatt noticed a photo hanging on the wall. he recognized jaeden, even though he was very young in the photo. next to him were a man and woman. he guessed they were his parents.

he walked over to the picture frame to have a closer look. wyatt smiled at young jaeden.

he jumped at the sound of jaeden's phone ringing. he ran over to his phone and declined the call, not wanting jaeden to be disturbed. it didn't work, though. jaeden's eyes fluttered open and he groaned, pulling the blanket over his head.

wyatt whispered an apology, embarrassed for some reason. jaeden sat up as he removed the blanket. "what for?"

"i um... didn't get to the phone quick enough."

"don't worry about it." jaeden rubbed his eyes and walked over to wyatt. "how'd you sleep?"

"good, you?" wyatt made eye-contact with him.

jaeden smiled softly. "great."

an awkward silence fell in the room. jaeden was thinking of what to say while wyatt looked around the room a little more.

"do you want breakfast?"

wyatt's heart stopped for a moment. "no, thank you."

"are you sure? i didn't see you at last night—"

"i ate some popcorn when you fell asleep during the movie." wyatt lied, averting his eyes to the floor.

"okay." jaeden said reluctantly. he blushed at the thought of the previous night. "i'm sorry for asking you personal questions."

"i didn't mind." wyatt shrugged.

"well, do you wanna go for a walk, or something?" jaeden suggested.

"sure. um, you should see who called you earlier."

"right." he walked over to his phone and switched it on.

"hey, soph. i got a missed call from you?"

"oh my god, jaeden! samantha held my hand and kissed my motherfucking cheek! can you believe it? i'm freaking out. she just left and holy shit. i don't know what to do."

"i'm so happy for you! you should call her, or text her."

"i can't. no, no, no. definitely not."

"just type the message and without thinking, press the send button."

"okay, okay, just hold on a sec'."

"okay."

jaeden sat down on his bed.

"WHAT THE FUCK SHE ALREADY SAW IT SHES TYPING HOLY FUCK JAEDEN IM GONNA SCREAM OH MY GOD!"

"calm down, soph. it's okay. you're dating her, remember?"

"oh, yeah. i am. fuck yeah. she's my girlfriend." sophia squealed.
