Crush

OPEN

After school I bumped into Grayson and it was very awkward.

   " Sorry," I mumbled.

  He smiled when he saw me, " You always manage to find me."

    This was the first time I noticed he had a big bruise on his face, I must have not seen it since it was only on one part of his face. His knuckles were red and even had some band aids.

   The thought of both of them beating each other to death angered me.

    His lip was cut and still had some dried blood, but the worst part was his jaw, it was purple and black.

     " See you later," I squeezed out before running away, and avoiding  human contact, so I  locked myself at home.

   My mother was probably with my brother, on his play date. He's lucky my mom is best friends with his friends mom.

    I sighed and switched on the tv, there was nothing good so I put in Netflix.

   And no I didn't watch the Office, i would watch that later. Instead I watched another one of my favorite shows.

    My phone vibrated multiple times but I ignored it. My blinds were closed, nobody could know I was home.

    I finished my homework and ate, all while watching TV. I felt so happy and in peace, I could finally breathe normally.

    This was my natural habitat. It was already late so I took a shower.

    After everything I checked my phone.  I giggled at the amount of messages.

Andrew: are you home

Andrew: can I come over

Andrew: PLEASE ANSWER

Andrew: I want another cinnamon roll

Andrew: are you busy watching TV

Andrew: c'mon I know you're in there

Andrew: openn upppp

Andrew: APRIL IM DYING OPEN THE DOOR

Andrew: ONLY A FEW SECONDS BEFORE I DIEE

Andrew: open

Andrew: OPEN OPEN

Andrew: opeeeeennnnnn

Andrew: stop ignoring me I know your phone didn't die you never let it get under than 20%

Andrew: fine I'll leave...

Andrew: after you open the door

Andrew: A P R I L

Andrew: O

Andrew: P

Andrew: E

Andrew: N

Andrew: Are you sleeping it's so early.

There were A LOT more but let's save us some time.

    I checked when the last message was sent and it was only a few seconds ago. I decided to open the door.

    " Finally what the hell were you doing?!" He groaned.

   " Ah nothing my phone died," I giggled.

    He rolled his eyes, " Just say you were masturbating I don't judge," he shrugged.

    " EW ANDREW SHUT UP!!" I yelled.

    He chuckled, " Why did it take you so long don't you know how long I waited?!"

   " Ah probably not much," I shrugged.

     " Give me another roll!" He begged.

    " What they're mine!?" I gasped.

   He kneeled on the floor, " Pleaseeee I waited so long I got hungry plus I used the magic word!"

   I laughed at his begging and gave in.

   " Here here stop acting like a baby!"

   " Hehe I knew you loved me!"

   " SHUT UP!!"

   " Anyways are you up for some Office?" He offered.

   " Sure why not."

   We both plopped on the couch and watched some episodes.

    His arm went behind me and his hand dangled over my shoulder.

   My body tensed a bit but after a while I got comfortable.

   Andrew noticed me from the beginning, he makes me feel well, he likes for who I am. Unlike Grayson which I had to wait a long as-.... I mean a very long time.

    " What are you thinking about?" He asked, making me flinch a bit.

     " Oh nothing," I lied.

   He raised his eyebrow in doubt.

   " Whatever you say."

   His arm tightened at some times and brought me closer to his body until our bodies were touching, but I would be lying if I didn't like it.

    " Want some water?" I asked.

    " Sure," he stood up.

   " No I'll go!" I assured.

   He nodded and sat back down. I walked into the kitchen and instead of grabbing a cup and washing it later I grabbed a water bottle.

   But when I was about to walk into the living room my mother stood right infront of me.

   " What were you thinking of inviting a guest while I was out?!" She scolded.

   " Mom I'm sorry I just thought-"

  " No that's enough clean up and go to your room!"

   " Mom we weren't doing anything chill!"

    " Ugh just get him out I'm very tired," she groaned while walking away.

   I nodded and went to the kitchen.

   " Hey Andrew I'm sorry but you need to go, well do this another time, my mom got a little out of hand," I explained.

   " Sure good luck with that."

   I tossed him the water bottle which he caught flawlessly, and he made his way out.

    I turned off the TV and headed to my room.
  
    Good thing I had Netflix on my computer.
