(darryl pov)
Forgiveness is a strange concept to wrap my head around. Especially since I'm doing it so fast.
Am I really ready to forgive? I stare awake in bed, looking up at my bedroom ceiling. I can't stop thinking about it. Time is meaningless in my thoughts.
Forgiveness.
I get a notification from my phone, making me flinch. Before I can even read it, I notice the time.
2:30pm.
I had really been in bed for so long?

Skeppy: hey
-badboyhalo has joined the chatroom-

Before I type, I pause, my thumbs dancing along the keyboard on the illuminated screen of my phone. I don't even know what to say. It used to be so easy to talk to Zak. Now it's as if we've just met all over again.

badboyhalo: Hey, what's up?
Skeppy: nothing really lol
Skeppy: how are you doing darryl?
badboyhalo: I'm alright, you?*<*
Skeppy: im ok
Skeppy: i miss you
badboyhalo: But we're talking right now?
Skeppy: lol no i mean in real life
badboyhalo: Oh>_>
Skeppy: i miss hanging out with you
badboyhalo: i miss you too, zak
Skeppy: lmao no you dont
Skeppy: i know its still not 100% between us
Skeppy: so dont lie darrie lol
badboyhalo: I do miss you, but I guess you're right.
Skeppy: yep
Skeppy: do you want to hang out tomorrow?
Skeppy: it would suck if we just never saw eachother ever again after our fight lol
badboyhalo: It would, wouldn't it?
Skeppy: so what do u say?;)

It would be one of the only possibly ways to make things not.. weird between us for god knows how long.
It wouldn't hurt, would it?

badboyhalo: oh my goodness
badboyhalo: i guess that would be okay.
Skeppy: how about that stupid little coffee place we went to last time?
badboyhalo: it's not stupid I liked it!
badboyhalo: but sounds good ^_^
Skeppy: 1:00pm sharp!
Skeppy: or else
badboyhalo: o_O
Skeppy: lololol just kiiidding
badboyhalo: ill see you tomorrow, then.
Skeppy: yup! talk later I love you
-Skeppy has left the chatroom.-
badboyhalo: what
badboyhalo: zak what

The words "I love you" wouldn't stop bouncing around obnoxiously in my head.
The simplest sentence could mean so many things. Did Zak even mean it? That was a thing. Not even meaning I love you.
It hurt thinking about it, but there was the possibility where he didn't mean it.

But I chose to trust in him.
I finally muster the energy to collect myself and finally get out of bed. I look at myself in my mirror, shifting my glasses onto my face, not exactly liking what I see. With my messy, ridiculously tangled hair and baggy sweater loosely hanging off my body, I look like a mess.

But, I can't help but smile. I smile at the thought of Zak. I smile as I think of how ridiculously hopeless and giddy I'm being.

"I love you."

Grabbing a clean towel, I decide to take a shower. But I really don't think it would fix any of the confusing feelings that are jumping around in my jambled head. This really isn't like me.
Oh my goodness, why am I so happy over a text?
