"Corbs I'm really tired" I whined extending out my words, as I placed my head on the science tables. "It'll be ok, not that long until school finishes" he says in a hushed tone rubbing my back and playing with my hair. I use the smallest amount of energy I have left to throw my upper body closer to him. I felt safe in his arms. It was a great feeling. Even tho science is one of my favourite subjects I was drained for no reason and I couldn't do it.

The bell ring and Corbyn slightly nudged and shook me until I was out of my slumber. I had the strangest dream about Daniel, luckily I'm seeing him now so I can tell him about it. As I trudged to Daniels locker knowing that he will be trying to skip anyways.

We're on the side fence using our usual hole to crawl through so we can go somewhere else other than here. As we're walking toward the bus stop I mention the dream to Daniel. But I don't use his name in case he knows what it would mean, and it's awkward.

"Hey Daniel?" I ask,
"Wassup" he replies glancing at me then quickly looking away.
"I had the strangest dream and I was wondering if you could interpret it for me?" I ask hoping he accepts.
"Sure, hit me" he replies.
"Well it had someone I know in it, a boy to be exact. Anyways, it was like we were on a date at our favourite restaurant. And after that we went to the forest and we kissed. But I didn't want the dream to end." I explained confused. I saw a bit of Daniels glow disappear which hurt me a bit. I don't like seeing him sad.
"That means you most likely want that to happen, and you like them" he trails off getting quieter. We walked the rest of the way to the bus stop in silence.

"Where do you wanna go Val?" Daniel asks finally breaking the silence.
"Can we go to your place and watch movies in your room, I'm extremely tired." I explain,
"I'd love that" he says smiling at me, not breaking the eye contact.
