Gamer Who? (BxB)

Chapter 18

"Do you think we go to the same school?"

"no way"

"I know right." I wish though. School would be so much better with Max- I mean, Dominic in it.

"so ive been thinking"

"Oh, no." Bitch.

"stfu"

Is it weird that I have no idea what Max's voice sounds like?

Yeah, I would say that's pretty weird. You and Ammonal started talking the day after you met right? Same with Yozu and Enez. You already know the answer.

I sighed and grazed my guitar strings as I walked past it with Evan's past words ringing in my head. It is weird. And now we're talking about seeing each other (kind of) so like, shouldn't we call each other?

I have to take a seat for this.

Shakily I wrote, "since we're probably gonna see each other and all that, shouldnt we call and see what each others voices sound like?"

I stared at the three dots while making my heel go up and down. What if he disagrees? My clothes suddenly started sticking to my body. I couldn't help but feel pathetic.

"Yeah, I've been thinking that too. Do you have time now?"

Do I have time? Yes. Am I mentally prepared? Hell no.

Shit, why did I write that if I feel like I'm not ready?! There's seriously something wrong with me, my blue shirt has sweat stains now. I feel gross. Great.

Why am I overreacting? How bad can it be?

"Can I call in like 3 minutes? I'm on my way somewhere but I can call you there."

Just kidding it's really, really fucking bad.

"wait i have to walk my dog first my moms been nagging me" Procrastination should be my middle name.

I turned my phone to silent and threw it on the bed. I won't be looking at any screen until I've cleared my head properly. I took a deep breath.

"C'mon Scout." He rushed out the door, down the stairs with a wagging tail. I gave him a weak, tightlipped smile and put on his lease.

After putting on my hooded jacket and sneakers my hand met the cold handle and soon enough, snow. Scouter barked delightedly as he stared up at the sky, small white snowflakes twirled down from the grey sky. Some had already landed on the ground. Maybe it'll stick?

Took its sweet time. Christmas already passed.

I watched my breath form around me as I exhaled for a moment. Scouter pulled on his lease and whined at me to move my ass. Sorry, boy.

As I looked towards the sky while Scouter pooped I was reminded of the picture of the blurry star filled above. If I had my phone with me, I might've taken a picture of the snowflakes. I rolled my eyes at my thoughts, what am I? A photographer?

I almost walked into Scouter as he stopped abruptly only to stare at something. My eyes went wide as I looked down on my small beagle. What is it now? I followed his gaze and saw that sleepy boy who doesn't like saying thanks. He was looking at me like he was calculating something?

"Hi?" I gave him an odd look as I waved awkwardly. He didn't reply with words, he just nodded slowly and kept walking. He was wearing that long black coat again with his hands deep in the pockets. Well, at least he didn't ignore me completely. He's still a dick though, next time I won't greet him.
