Currently working on trying to fill up a page in my sketch book of just Carson. Almost done but that's what had postponed the update of this chapter which should have been uploaded yesterday. Anyways onwards to the story!

I woke up around 9 and pulled myself out of bed. I stretched and headed to shower. Today I was really going to hang with Carson! Oh man what do I wear? I took a slightly stressful shower. Well if I'm going to hang at his place maybe just jeans and a normal t-shirt? If it wasn't obvious I had little social skills it was a miracle that I could even speak to Carson like a normal person.

I put on a black T-shirt that had dancing skeletons on it and put on black jeans. I was struggling to keep the soaking hair from sticking on my neck, it made me uncomfortable so I wrapped my hair in a towel. I headed to the kitchen and wanted to make some tea but groaned forgetting about the broken mug. I even went to Walmart! Damn. I went to grab my phone and check the time. Only 10:30am, but a new message from Carson about 2 minutes ago. I opened the text.

Pizza rolls or corn dogs?

Definitely pizza rolls, plus how was I gonna eat a corn dog in front of him without minds going into gutters. I sent my response and placed my phone in my pocket. I still had some time to kill so I made myself a light meal which was a lunchables.

It was 12 so I quickly gathered some possible necessities into a mini backpack. I grabbed my charger and wallet just in case. I spritzed myself with some perfume and checked myself in the mirror once more. I looked casual, but cute. I pulled my hair into a messy bun and checked the time once more. It was now 12:05pm. Perfect. I made the short walk over and knocked on his door. I heard shuffling and he opened it. "Hey! Come on in gamer." He opened the door for me. I walked in and hit with that lovely smell of cologne, I don't know if it was actually cologne or some type of dude bro air freshener. I sat on the couch and he brought out two plates of pizza rolls.

The goal was to yes hang out today, but maybe to casually bring up his status. I don't know how I would do it but I needed the right chance. We had finished all the pizza rolls. "Oh look it's raining outside!" I mentioned.

"Oh hell yeah let's get some of this sky water action." He grinned and opened the window. I followed him and we sat by the window.

"I wanna get a plant." I randomly said. It was the first thing that came to mind.

"Oh snazz up the house a bit eh?" He smiled looking at me.

"Ya know get me some free oxygen."

"Ah yes oxygen." He abruptly took a hard sniff of the air. I laughed at him.

"Do you just ever," I took a hard sniff in and exhaled, "and live?" Oh how I felt top notch as he laughed at my dumb joke. He looked so cute when he was laughing.

"What's your favorite movie?" He asked.

"Like any specific genre?"

"Nah just your all time favorite."

"I really liked the movie Warm Bodies."

"What is that about?"

I explained the plot without ruining the end. "That movie is A1." I smiled, I was going to return the question but yellow darted past is. I looked and it was a wasp. I panicked and scrambled out of the way. Sadly the socks weren't cutting it on wood floors so I looked like a sliding mess. Carson was laughing at me, but also getting up to get away from the wasp. We quickly tried to kill it.

"OH MY GOD, OH MY- CARSON NO!" I screamed as he almost swatted it towards me. I jumped over the couch running from the charging bug. My foot had gotten tangled on the blankets he had from yesterday. So I was left hanging by my foot on the back of the couch. Carson who was shouting was now making wheezing laughs. "CARSON KILL IT!" I yelled pointing at the wall it had landed. He quickly threw a shoe at it and missed now making the wasp fly once again. I struggled to untangle my foot as the wasp was now flying around the couch.

I wiggled my foot as Carson finally killed the wasp. "Carson please help me." I called out.

He was still laughing at me, "Should I though?"

I felt so embarrassed and covered my face, "Yes, you should."

"What if I choose to let you stay there?"

What could I do? "Carson please, I'll make you food." With that I felt him unwrapping my foot. Guess he liked my cooking.

"My cookings that good huh?" I grinned as I got off the floor. I jumped back on the couch as Carson closed the window. I seriously don't know how to bring up his status casually, but for now I'll focus on our time together. I mean it'll eventually be said soon right?

"What you gonna cook for me?"

"I do have some chicken, so maybe I'll make some homemade fried chicken." I said as I sat on the couch. He then sat as well, but pretty close to me. He threw the blanket, that had tangled me, onto us. Maybe I won't have to ask? He's pretty darn close. I felt a blush creeping onto my face.

"So what are we watching hot stuff?" I joked leaning back. I noticed his face going red, I smirked. He tried turning his face away so I couldn't see, but it was too late. Maybe I should tease him a bit more.

"What's wrong? Is something bothering you?" I asked as he gathered his composure.

"Nope. Let's watch a movie, shall we?"

We ended watching another horror movie called Ritual. We were both still laying back on the couch. I had the blanket over my mouth as I watched the movie. I kept sneaking my glances at Carson. It seemed by the lack of correction that he was indeed single. Oh hell yes! I smiled to myself as I watched the creepy monster on the tv. His apartment was super cold, but I felt cozy being next to him and under the blanket. I wanted to scoot closer but maybe I should wait on that.

I was in suspense when I felt a weight on my shoulder. I glanced and saw this dude sleeping. Oh my god he was super close! I now had an internal battle of whether to let him slump there or wake him. I decided to scoot closer and let him sleep. I smiled to myself and continued to watch the movie.

Eventually the movie was over and he was out still. I gently laid him on the couch. It was around 7pm now. I should probably head to my place to sleep. I turned off the tv and went to find a pillow. I grabbed a pillow from his room and placed it under his head carefully. "Sleep tight goofball." I giggled to myself. I put on my shoes and headed out locking his door behind me.

I headed to my room deciding to sleep a little earlier. I made sure to send a text thanking him for the pizza rolls and told him goodnight. I set an alarm for work and plugged in my phone and changed into pajamas. I then crawled into bed and passed out.
