Magnus (pov)

I've lied again. Telling him that I had to go home because something important came up, bullshits. The last place I'd ever wanted to he was at home if I could still call it like that.

I couldn't stay at his house any longer, he was already    nice enough to let me stay the night. I didn't want stayed longer than the necessary.
The truth was that I wanted to see him again.

He made me feel happy, it was nice being around him. Maybe I could even call him a friend, weren't we? I didn't ask him if he wants to but maybe next time... will there ever be a next time? I suddenly stopped as I recognized the familiar house. Those ugly white windows, that horrible black door. I hated everything about it, always did. Honestly, I would rather face the horrible door than entering. I strangely had my keys, which I didn't even remember bringing them. After what seemed ages, I decided to take courage and enter. I took the elevator and pushed on the third floor.

My hands were shaking all the way to the floor, and when I got out, the situation became worse. The little courage I had before, the  words of encouragement disappear like sand.  I hoped she wasn't at home, prayed she wasn't. I inserted the key inside the lock.  Trying  to not make any sounds, but everything just seemed to be louder than it was supposed to be. The house was still the same, the horrible hallway that led to the living room.

I walked quietly until I reached the living room. There was nobody. I kept walking towards my room, not caring to see if she was somewhere in the house. I quickly went upstairs straight to my room. Everything seemed to be as I left, nothing changed.

But I didn't come here to see how my house was, without wasting any time,  I went to collect the stuff I needed. I took a backpack and put some random clothes, like pullover, shirts, and jeans. I checked twice to see if I had everything, then I got out. I was almost at the door when I heard someone. I made the stupid mistake to turn and my fears became more real than they weren't already.
