I heard faint laughing and then a strong smell of pizza."Wake up, Hal." I heard Nick laugh again.
I opened my eyes and squinted a little from the sudden brightness, When did I fall asleep?
"You look so confused." He smirked.
"I didn't know I fell asleep." I yawned, feeling sleepy.
He laughed, "I know. The look on your face said it all."
I smiled embarrassingly, "Sorry."
"It's alright, I just woke you up to tell you the pizza just got here."
I looked down at the table and sure enough, there was a box of pizza sitting there.
"This is our pizza, your brother took his into the room." He said as he opened the box.
"Oh, okay." I said, my voice felt and sounded groggy, I looked up at the television and realized we were near the end of the movie, "When did I fall asleep?" I asked, confused on how long I was actually asleep for.
"You were out like 10 minutes into the movie." He laughed.
"Oh, geez how embarrassing." I muttered as my cheeks flared, "I guess I didn't realize how tired I was."
"It's okay," he laughed, "I don't mind."
I smiled at him appreciatively and I reached for the pepperoni slice and rested back on the couch as he did the same.
"Do you want to go to the park later?" He asked as he took a bite from his slice.
"The park?" I asked, I haven't been there in ages.
"Yes, the park. You know, where there is grass and swings and stuff?" He spoke sarcastically.
I rolled my eyes, "Oh, thank you for the clarification."
"Okay, now you have no option. You're coming." He tried to sound serious.
"And what will we be doing there?" I asked.
"Hanging out and maybe actually not fall off the skateboard?" He teased, referencing the last two times I've lost balance and fallen off of it.
"Not falling off sounds fun." I nodded my head slowly as I continued eating my slice.
At this point, neither of us were paying attention to the movie, not that I was from the beginning anyway.
Nick clearly enjoys hanging out with me, why does he constantly cancel plans?
"You frowned, Hal. What's wrong?" He asked as he set down his pizza and crossed his arms and sat up straighter.
I frowned?
"Nothing." I replied, I would be embarrassed if he ever knew what I was thinking.
He raised an eyebrow and didn't take his eyes off me.
"I really am okay, I'm serious." I let out a shaky laugh.
He eyed me suspiciously, I knew he was trying to read my facial expressions.
