People I Don't Know

Part time job

Erin started his ignoring game again, on Tuesday he left me in the library and he didn't talk with me since then. He's been ignoring my presence, today is Sunday and it's been already four days. Even I didn't try to talk with him from the night he walked away, I just kept checking him once or twice a day. And I didn't even talk much with Colin these four days, I spent most of the time in my room or with Rachel and Tori.

As today is Sunday, Logan and Lynsey joined me in their games. I spent almost my time with them, playing in the backyard. After dinner, they forced me to play with them in the gaming room. Luis, Erin and his friends are there but didn't bother me at all. We settled ourselves on a couch and started playing, they are on the other side enjoying their drinks. After a while, I laid down on the couch, as it felt so comfortable. I stopped playing, started watching Logan and Lynsey playing and teasing them. I don't know when it happened but I dozed off.

When I opened my eyes, I was sleeping on my stomach on the couch in the gaming room and it was dark. I lifted my head and looked around, I'm alone. I got up from the couch and I saw a silhouette in the dark. It looked like Erin, I looked at him for few seconds and asked
"Erin?"

He walked into the little light revealing his face, it is Erin. He said nothing but he came close to me and hugged me. He hugged me so tight leaning over me as I'm shorter than him. I stayed still without moving and said nothing. After a moment he released me from his arms, looked at my face and said
"Go and sleep in your room" I frowned my eyes, he left from there.

I went back to my room and slept on my bed thinking about Erin. He hugged me for just a minute but I smell like him. Then my phone buzzed with a message from an unknown number. It was Erin but I didn't save his number on my phone.

"Can't sleep" he texted.

I smiled at his text and replied
"What can I do?"

"Can I come over?" He texted back.

I widened my eyes
"No" I replied.

"Whyyyyyy????????" He replied to me.

"Good night" I replied him.

"I'm coming" he replied.

"Noo.." I replied and I can hear someone knocking on the door.

What? He really came?? What should I do now?? I started to panic. I didn't open the door, he stopped knocking. Did he leave?

"Is that you?" I texted him.

"What?" He replied to me.

"Someone knocked on my door, is that you?" I replied him.

"No it wasn't me, do you want me to check?" He replied.

"It's okay, I'm sleeping" I replied to him.

Then again someone knocked on my door, I went and opened the door. It is Erin. I frowned my eyebrows, he said
"I came to check" and gave me a smirk.
"You are so fast, do you have any superpowers?"
"It was me who knocked on the door, I told you I'm coming" he laughed lightly walking into my room.
"Close the door and lock it," he said and I widened my eyes.
"Noo, you should leave now," I said but he settled himself on the couch in my room.
"lock it," he said, leaning back on the couch, spread one hand on the couch top and another hand covered his mouth.

I locked the door and went near my bed and sat on it. He kept glaring at me, not saying anything. I can see only his eyes as he covered half of his face with his hand.
After a while, "it's getting late. You should leave" I said looking at him. But he said nothing just gave me a smirk.
"Aren't you sleepy?" I asked him.
"You can sleep if you want to," he said and crossed his arms across his chest while glaring at me.
