i was in the middle of tidying up my small apartment, when i heard my phone ring. i went over to find it had y/n's name spelled out on the screen. just seeing that digitally written word made my heart flutter. i knew i wouldn't ever have the balls to tell them that though. we've been best friends for years, which is why i've always been afraid.

"hello?" i answered.

"hey ty, watcha doin?" y/n asked me.

"i'm just doing some cleaning around here, it was starting to look like a pigsty." i chuckled.

"wellllll, would you be down to come over? i picked out some good movies, and we can find something here to eat if you want." they bribed.

"is that even a question? i'll be over in 10." i replied, like it was obvious.
and with that, i dropped everything i was doing and prepared myself to head over there.

-
after the 10 minutes went by, i was knocking on their door.

"hi!" they answered and pulled me in for a hug.
shortly after, we let ourselves inside.

"so, i got the classics like titanic, stand by me, the shining if you're in a horror kind of mood, and the back to the future series." they recommended.

we both decided on the back to the future series so that we could just binge watch it all.

as i was setting up their dvd player and getting everything ready, they decided to make the mac and cheese.

moments went by before y/n called to get myself a bowl.

"take as much as you want, don't be shy." they bumped their hips into mine, 'booty-bumping,' as you would call it.
they sat in the living room waiting to play the movie until i was ready.

i scooped two large scoops of macaroni into my bowl, and went towards the fridge. i grabbed the ketchup that was placed in the side door, and squirted it on top of the cheesy noodles.

"okay you can play it now." i shouted, walking into their living room.

"what were you doing in there?" they asked, making me stop in my tracks. I gave them a confused look.
"were you stealing my food in the fridge?" they jokingly crossed their arms and squinted at me.

"no I wasnt, don't worry." I chuckled and sat down close to them.

"wait a second." they turned to face me more.
"is that was i think it is?" they smiled and slightly covered their mouth.

"what? its just ketchup." i stated, not understanding the problem.

"we have been friends for this long, and i never knew you liked ketchup in mac and cheese!?" they exclaimed.

"i guess there just hasnt been a time where we've had macaroni together, oddly enough." i laughed, taking a bite of the ketchup covered noodles.

they paused for a second before responding, "tyler robert joseph, you are a straight up serial killer."

"dude, you are being so dramatic." i smiled and rolled my eyes.

"i am not! that's literally something a killer would eat to prepare for his next victim."
i always noticed the way they widened their eyes when they were serious about something, i adored it.

"have you even tried it? you don't know if you like it if you've never had it." I pointed out.

"i just know that's the worst thing ever, okay? no need for a taste test." they sat back, giving me a grossed out look.

"come on, just one tiny bite." i got a couple of noodles placed on my fork.

"hell no tyler." they said

"please, for me." i batted my eyes at them, giving them a cheeky smile.

"oh my god, fine. but only because you're my friend and i know you wont leave me alone about this." they took my fork in their hands, hesitating to hold it up to their mouth.

after a few long attempts of trying to actually eat it, they finally did.
and to my surprise, they didnt mind it.

"um wow, i was not expecting this." they chewed, really trying to figure out the taste.
"its really not THAT bad." they looked down, realizing i was right all along.

"I told you." i sighed.

we then continued on to our movie marathon.
after a while, y/n sighed and gently positioned themselves closer to me, laying their head on my shoulder.

"you really mean a lot to me ty."

those simple words sent a giddy feeling throughout my entire body.

"you mean the most to me y/n." i sat my head softly against hers, and went about our night.
