Hanging out.

James POV

As I drove home that night, there was a tugging sensation in my stomach.
Am I sick? I thought to myself. Maybe I'm excited for tomorrow? Yeah, probably. I was stuck in my thoughts most of the drive home. It wasn't a long drive, it only felt like one. I smiled as I walked through my door. I knew the sooner I went to sleep, the faster tomorrow would reach me. First, I needed y/n's number. 

At that moment, my phone buzzed. It was from Adam.
Adam: So how was it 😉
James: We unpacked Adam. That's all.
Adam: mhm sure
James: do you have her number?
Adam: I thought you would never ask.

Adam then gave me her number as I mentally high fived myself. Tomorrow was going to be great.

Your POV

I woke up the next morning to my phone ringing.
It was Adam.
"Hello? " I said in a groggy voice.
"Sup. We're you asleep?" He said back.
'Duh. It's like 7:30. " I yelled.
"Damn, sorry" I heard him laugh through the phone.
"What do you want?" I asked.
" I want to know if you're free today. " His laughter faded.
"Me and James were going to hang out. But I might be later..." I said, hoping he wasn't upset. But knowing Adam , he would be fine.
I heard a faint damn it! It the background before he cleared his throat and began talking again.
"Oh okay. Well bye."
Then he hung up. "Wonder what that was all about..." I said to myself. 

I decided that I should get dressed after laying down for about 20 more minutes. I am totally not a morning person, but either way, James was more  important than sleep today. I don't know when he will come over, I just know he will.

(You guys can choose what you wear! I want to give you more choice in this story)

As I looked in the mirror in my wall, I saw how skinny I had gotten in the last month. I thought I was getting back in the habit of eating. It wasn't healthy what I was doing to myself. But now, it's showing all the way that I was anorexic. I didn't want James to find out, he may think of me differently. That was the last thing I needed, to be judged. The thought completely mortified me. I hated that judgy feeling I got when I was walking somewhere or if I was even in public period. I have always worried about that. What other people think.

I was ripped from my thoughts as I heard a knock on the front door. I began smiling because I already knew who it was.
James.
I quickly ran downstairs to open the door. I had no hesitation to grab the handle and sling it open. James greeted me with a warm, caring smile that he always wears when he is around. It melts my heart completely.
"Hey y/n." He chirped happily .
His voice was angelic.
'h-Hey James. Come in. " I stuttered, mentally cursing myself.

We both walked over to the couch and sat down, leaving a silence that was incredibly awkward for the both of us. James was staring at my wall as if there was a ghost staring at him. However, I was staring at him. Probably why we were silent.
He finally spoke up.
"So, what do you want to do?" He asked.
I only shrugged, knowing if I said something I would stutter and stumble across my sentences and only make a fool of myself.
What is he doing to me?!
He smiled once again.
"I know what we could do...." He started. I glanced up to meet his gaze, quickly looking away and blushing.
" Tag. " was all I heard before I felt a tap on my shoulder and saw James running like his life depended on it. I stood up while laughing horrendously and sprinting after him.
"You can run, but you can't hide!" I cackled evily. I smirk grew on my face as I chased him around the house multiple times .
"Tag! You're it!" I screamed and ran like a child.
He ran after me, arms flailing the trying to touch me. I kept running, I wouldn't let him catch me even if I had to run for eternity.
"Why are you ...... *Wheeze*...... So fast!?" He said in between breaths . He was hunched over, clutching his stomach. I was only a few feet away from him at the time. His face was red from lack of breath. But in a way, it was cute.
"I dunno." I shrugged at him. " want some water? " I asked him, hoping he would stop chasing me now. He nodded eagerly and we walked into the kitchen, still catching our breath.
I grabbed a glass from the cabinet and began filling it with water.
He smiled gratefully at me and accepted the glass of cold water.
"Your face is red." I said, mentally slapping myself. "I wonder why?" He said playfully. We both laughed a bit at his sarcasm.

As he stood up, I grabbed his arm and pulled him into a hug.
"Thank you for coming James."
I could feel his chuckle through his chest as I put my head onto it. I smiled as he hugged back.
"Anytime."

After a full day of playing video games and fooling around, james got a call from his mom saying she wanted him over for dinner. We said our goodbyes and I led him over to the door.
"Wait. Before I go....." He trailed off.
" I .... Uh... Wanted to say I had a great time today.... Yeah.... See you tomorrow! " and with that, he was gone.
What was he really going to say??
I pondered.
Why didn't he say it?

I walked back up the stairs, waiting for a text explaining what he was going to say. But I never got one, instead I ended up falling asleep, thinking about James once again.
