14 | Sleeping Buddy

My eyes widened at Nairobi's words. How did she found out about it? And why is she with Denver? Are they hooking up too?

I put down my stuff on the bed. I sat down, I pursed my lips and looked at the wall in front of me.

I pondered whether I should tell her or not. I can make up something about getting out of his room. Maybe say that I asked him to teach me how to paint, at six in the morning?! But sooner or later, Tokyo would tell her either way. So, I guess, I just gotta tell her, and I don't want her to get mad at me for lying.

I turned my head to them and looked at Nairobi. I looked at her in the eye and tilted my head implying to the man beside her.

She got what I was thinking, and talked to Denver. "Denver, we're going to have some girl talk. Get out of here. And stop laughing, it gives me a headache." She harshly said.

Denver looked shocked at her words and was about to protest, but the look Nairobi gave him was enough to get his ass out of my room. But he grinned at me and formed a circle on his one hand and pushed the pointer finger of his other hand several times before leaving.

Nairobi closed the door before she slowly strolled towards me. I was nervous about how to explain this to her, but I just gotta say it. "Hey, let me-"

"Don't even think for a second to lie to me. I've noticed it since the first day with how you kicked his chair, and how he didn't react. Then after that, I saw both of you talking in the balcony. And the other day, I saw a picture in his notebook a picture of him and a girl, which is no doubt, is you. And now getting out of his room just gave me the last piece of the puzzle, and I just need to hear it from you." She proclaimed.

My jaw dropped with her testimony, saying she saw all those but didn't say a word about it. The balcony? The picture? This girl really is something. She notices the littlest things that happen around her.

I closed my mouth, and let out a sigh. "Yeah, you're speculation is right. But not in that way. We're just friends, okay. We have been for years now." I explained. "And besides, I wasn't going to lie to you, I know Tokyo will tell you anyway," I added.

She gasped at that, "You told Tokyo but not me? I thought we were friends too." She exclaimed.

"No, I didn't tell her, she found out too. And now you." I said.

A smile formed on her face and took a seat beside me on the bed. "Okay, now that is clear. Now, tell me how does it feel to have a friend with benefits?" She said as she wiggled her eyebrows.

I was stunned by her words, "No! We're not! Why would you think that?" I blurted out.

Friends with Benefits?

Pfft. I wish.

She giggled at my reaction, "Oh really? Well, that's disappointing. I thought it was like that with how you sneaked into your room earlier, like a teenager hoping her dad wouldn't catch her." She said, a smirk placed on her face. "Why were you in his room, by the way?" She added.

"I had a bad dream last night, and I went to him to talk for a bit. Then it became late, so we ended up sleeping in his bed. Just. Sleeping."

She slowly nodded her head, understanding but teasing me at the same time, "How did you see me anyway? I looked around but I didn't saw anyone." I asked.

"Denver and I were going upstairs and when we were in the hallway, Denver saw you tiptoeing to your room from Berlin's. And we hid on the walls to see what's going on." She proudly stated.

Oh, now I get it. These nosy bastards.

"Anyway, we're gonna prepare breakfast, would you like to help?" She asked.
