(I'm not even gonna say anything. Figure out what the title means by yourself. YOUR BIG KIDS.)

Garroth's P.O.V.

I woke up and opened my eyes to see pale blue eyes staring at me. I sat up and winced a bit, as all the warmth that surrounded my body was automatically gone. I yawned and stretched a bit, the cold air irritating me. I crawled over to Laurence and shuffled onto his lap, I wrapped my legs around his waist and hugged him, Laurence smiled and wrapped his arms around me as well. "Your...so warm..." I giggled slightly and stuffed my head into the crook of his neck once again, Laurence smiled and started to play with my champagne locks. After a few minutes I hear a notification pop up on my phone, I was confused. One, who was the person that dared to bother me while I was hugging my teddy bear, and second, why was my phone down here? I looked around and realize that we were back in my room and mentally face palmed myself, I reached over to my phone and grabbed it, reading over the multiple texts I missed. The weird thing is, that they were all from Aphmau, it seems like she was worried sick, even though I barely talked to her anymore.

~~~~~ G= Garroth A=Aphmau ~~~~~

A: Garroth are you okay?

A: I saw what happened last night.

A: Garroth?

A: GARROTH RO' MAEVE.

A: Fine. I just wanted to tell you that you were invited to my sleepover that I was having with a bunch of my other friends.

A: You can bring a friend since I know you barely know anyone there.

G: Sorry for not responding Aphmau! I was sleeping the whole afternoon and didn't notice that the phone was blowing up until now.

G: And yes, I will come to the sleepover.

Two minutes later

A: Okay! The sleepover starts in...

A: TWENTY MINUTES GO GET READY GAR

I inhaled sharply and shook away the nickname Aphmau called me. "Aphmau invited me to a sleepover and said I can bring a friend." I answered Laurence before he could ask his question, His face showed annoyance and he rolled his eyes, looking away. "You know your gonna come with me...right Laur?~" I sat back in his lap and whispered in his ear, making him blush a light red. "Are you sure Gar?" Laurence asked, I nodded slowly and got off his lap reluctantly. "We have twenty minutes to get ready." I simply said and went into my drawer, grabbing some pajamas and stuffing them in a bag. I grabbed some sweat pants and a black shirt, I pulled down my pants and slipped on my sweat pants. I then took off my shirt, throwing it on the floor. I froze as I just remembered that Laurence was still here, and was watching me get dressed the whole time. I squealed and slipped my shirt on quickly, I attempted to fix my half straight, half curly hair. Last but not least, I put on some shoes and grabbed my bag, waiting by my bedroom door patiently, my face a beet red. Laurence chuckled and pulled off his shirt as well, then following with his pants. I stared at him in awe and I felt a bit of drool run down my mouth. He turned back to me, as he started to put on his pants and winked at me. "Like what you see baby?~" He said flirtatiously and slipped on his shirt, following with his shoes. He was about to do his hair until I ran over to him and snatched my comb away. "You look so cute with messy hair though..." I looked up at him and mumbled, Laurence fixed his hair a bit with his hands and sighed, kissing me on the cheek. He picked up his bag and walked over to the door, me following behind him. We both made our way downstairs, I looked around for my mother, but then shrugged and grabbed my coat, walking out the house with Laurence. "Where does she even live?" Laurence spat and looked around, I laughed a bit and caught up to him, holding his hand. "Over here...Why do you not like Aphmau anyway?" I looked up at the brunette and asked. Laurence grumbled something and then looked down at me. "My parents always wanted us to get together. I don't know why...they just did." Laurence finally answered and shrugged, turning left. We walked a few more minutes and finally got to Aphmau's house. I stopped in my steps as we walked up to Aphmau's house, making Laurence almost trip. "We're here!" I giggled and bounced up to their door, ringing the doorbell. Laurence followed up behind and laughed a bit as I pressed the doorbell multiple more times. The door swung open, revealing Aphmau's mother. "Garroth! You've gotten so big!" Aphmau's mother said, I looked down and blushed a bit from embarrassment.

Sylvanna looked over to Laurence and eyed him suspiciously, she motioned us inside and pointed to the room where everyone was at. We walked into the room, Aphmau's mom right behind us. "Mija, who is this boy? I haven't met him before and I swear if-" Sylvanna asked but got cut off Aphmau. "Mom, calm down. Why don't you let Garroth explain who he is." Aphmau smirked and pointed at me, I froze and looked down at the ground. Laurence walked over to me and rubbed my back comfortingly. "This is Laurence...and I'm sure you don't have to worry a-about him because...he's...uhm...my boyfriend..." I trailed off nervously, a smile appeared on Sylvanna's face. "Oh. Okay. Just don't get any ideas..." She said and walked off, Laurence and I watched as she walked off, with puzzled faces on. "Oh my Irene, I'm so sorry Laurence and Garroth, Let's just start to play the game." Aphmau apologized and pointed to a seat on the bed. We both walked over to the bed and sat down, I looked over to Aphmau. "What game are we playing exactly...?" I asked cautiously, a smile appeared on Aphmau's face, making chills go down my spine. "Truth or dare of course!" She laughed, I looked at Laurence for a second and then looked back at Aphmau. "W-wonderful!" I stuttered out and looked at my hands, fidgeting with them. "So who's gonna go first?" A boy with white hair and green eyes asked. Laurence sighed and scooted closer to me, he moved closer to my ear. "Do we really have to be here...?" Laurence complained, I nodded reluctantly and rested my head on his shoulder. "How about Laurence? He should go first!" Aphmau said and blushed slightly, pointing to him. I spotted the blush on her face and sat up, staring at her. "Sure..." Laurence mumbled, Aphmau's smile grew wider and she walked up to me. "Truth or dare?" She asked cheerfully, Laurence looked over to me and I mouthed, 'Truth'. Laurence nodded slightly and looked back to Aphmau. "Truth." Laurence simply said, Aphmau looked disappointed but got up and stood in front of him. "Who would you date if Garroth wasn't your boyfriend?" She asked, and smirked devilishly. I froze and stared at Aphmau again, I knew what she was doing. Laurence tensed up and looked down for a second, he looked back up with a cold look and looked Aphmau in the eyes. "No one." He simply said, the cold look still in his eyes. I could tell Laurence knew what she was playing at, and he didn't like it. Aphmau stared back at Laurence and quickly kissed his forehead before bouncing away, giggling. Laurence froze and grabbed my hand, he pulled me off the bed and picked me up, carrying me out the room.
