To Catch a Dream ➢ Milo Manheim and Pearce Joza

seven.

"Pearce! Wait!" I scream running after him down the hallway. 

"What Sara? What could you possibly say that makes me even want to look at you?" he turned around after I grabbed his hand. 

He pulls his hand away, fuming. 

"I don't know why you're so mad!" I yell crossing my arms. 

"You know why I'm mad? Jesus Christ Sara, I like you! I thought it was pretty obvious and I thought that you felt the same. But all I saw was you sucking Milo's face off." he rolls his eyes. 

"That's not fair, Pearce." I shake my head, "You can't just now tell me your feelings cause you saw me kissing Milo. And maybe I kissed back, because I do have a little bit of feelings for him. But that doesn't mean I never liked you."

"Are you going to date him?" he asks, his voice breaking. 

"No Pearce. I'm not. I'm not just going to date someone cause they kissed me." I sighed, placing my hands on my forehead. 

"Now, can we just go back to the apartment, and forget it happened? I'll talk to Milo. Let's just go hang out with our friends." I say and he nods. We walk back silently to our apartment, and when I opened the door everyone turned to look at us. 

"Who wants to watch a movie?" Ariel blurted out and everyone agreed, finding a place to sit. I sit on the couch, Pearce following. I sit in the middle, and Milo sits on the other side of me. 

"Are you okay?" he mouths to me and I just nod my head yes. Then, Pearce sits on the other side of me, breaking my eye contact with Milo. 

I look ahead of me, feeling both of their arms on mine. I ignore it and help Ariel pick out a movie. 

Once we found a movie, Trevor hit the lights making the room go dark. I shuffle in my seat, crossing my arms over my body. 

We were fifteen minutes in the movie when I started shivering a little. 

"Are you cold?" Pearce whispers to me. I nod, and as he was about to grab a blanket, but Milo already put one on me. I look up at him and say thanks. I look over to Pearce to see him staring Milo down. 

I was really hoping that it wouldn't be like this.

The movie dragged on and I was starting to get tired. I yawn watching the screen. 

Soon, the movie ended and everyone got up and stretched. 

"We better get going, it's getting late." Meg said and everyone agreed. I stayed sitting on the couch, watching everyone leave. I noticed that Milo turned around, glaring at Pearce, and then me. I look away to go on my phone, and I finally hear the door shut. 

"Alright, I'm going to bed." Chandler yawned, walking to her room. 

"Ditto." Ariel said back and did the same. 

Which left Pearce and I on the couch. I mess with my phone slighting. 

"I'm sorry." Pearce finally said, making me look at him quickly. 

"For what?" I answer. 

"For running out of here earlier. I guess I was just upset." he sighed. 

"It's my fault really. I should have known that you felt that way. Or else I wouldn't have kissed him." I say.

"Honestly, it's fine. Really." he said putting his hand on mine. I look down at our hands and I smile. 

"We should probably get to bed." he finally said, standing up. I do as well, and we walk to our rooms. 

"Wait, Pearce." I say and he turns around. 

I peck his lips quickly, standing on my tiptoes. I back up a little, seeing him blush like crazy. 

"Goodnight." I say opening my door and walking into my room backwards. 

"Goodnight Sara." he said as I close my door. 

---

I wake up the next morning to someone knocking on my door. I groan, sitting up and walking over to my door. 

"Who is it?" I say to my closed door. 

"Meg, open the door." 

I open the door for her and she instantly walks in, closing the door behind her. 

My eyes widen from how aggressive she was at only 7 a.m.

"Who let you in?" I yawn, walking to my bed to sit down. 

"Pearce. Now tell me, what is going on?" she asks sitting next to me. 

"With???" I linger. 

"Pearce and Milo! Come on, Sara." she sighed. 

"Okay, they maybe probably both like me." I answer all in one breath. 

"And you?" she asks. 

"That's the thing. I don't know. I like Milo, but I also like Pearce. They're both great guys." I say putting my head in my hands. 

"Well, do what you think is the best. And I saw that kiss with Milo, it looked legit." she said smiling. 

"Yeah, but that was also my first kiss." I tell her and her eyes widen. 

"What!" she yells. I cover her mouth, shushing her. 

"No way, I don't believe it." she whispers. 

"Yeah, well. Believe it. Cause it was." I sigh shaking my head. 

"So what are you going to do?" she asks me and I tell her what I knew. 

"I don't know."
