ik look to behind u dumbass

slowly turned around and saw maddie. my heart was beating out of my chest. i ran up and jumped onto her.

after a couple minuted of hugging, i finally saw mrs white and hayden.

hayden was maddie's year older brother, he was a senior now. he finally came out last year as gay, which was a huge deal for him, even though me and maddie basically knew our whole lives. i like to say that i have a good gaydar, but maddie doesn't think so.

anyways, after giving him a big hug, we headed to the car. my mom, and maddie's mom sat in the front, and the rest of us sitting in the back with maddie in the middle with me and hayden on each side.

our city wasn't too far from the airport. driving through the town flooded memories from my childhood. it felt like i was reliving a vague dream. the town was much smaller than i remembered, but just as cute. i sat with my head leaning on the window looking at every building, recognizing, or trying to remember what the town was like.

soon we got to maddie's house. my mom and i only brought small bags each since it was only one night, and the trucks were coming early tomorrow morning.

we all made our way through the garage door, which led into the mudroom, then the kitchen. i forgot how nice her house was.

"hey livsterrrr!"

i turned around in excitement to see maddie's dad standing with his arms wide open for a bear hug. i could recognize his low voice anywhere, plus nobody else calls me 'livster'

"mr white!" i run over to him and give him a big hug. he was almost like a second father to me. i forgot how much i missed my dad's hugs.

after talking to their family for a while, me and maddie headed upstairs to her room.

"damn maddie your room is so much prettier in person," i said while i examined her room.

i threw my bag on her floor, kicked off my shoes and face planted onto her bed.

"just making myself comfortable" i muffled with my face down on her comforter

"mhm okay"

i fell asleep after a long day of traveling

—

i woke up with maddie pulling open my eyes

"wake up hoe" she said while i tried to close my eyes with her fingers keeping them open

"get off me" i whined

"dinner's readyyy" she sang

"what are we having?" i groaned still trying to resist her fingers

"your favorite," she paused to look at my reaction, "lasagnaaaa" she said in a sing-song voice

i unscrunched my face and ran downstairs. i swung around the knob of the stairs almost running into her kitchen island

"good morning sleeping beauty," maddie's mom laughed, "take a seat" she smiled

i rubbed my eyes and walked over to the table.
