Max's POV
I opened up my eyes and saw myself sleeping next to Lucas on the couch. I didn't want to try waking him up so I kind of just stayed there in that sleeping position. I noticed the cable box to the TV was still powered on. We probably forgot to turn it off last night. I felt him wake up and start playing with my hair but I didn't say anything. "I know your awake" Lucas said in a sing-song voice. I turned over to face him and cuddled with him more. "We have to get up at some point. Or we might get sleep paralysis" He said, laughing at his own joke. I smirked and shook my head as i got up from the couch.
I went to the kitchen and looked in my pantry to see what I had.
"Want any cereal?" I asked, still looking for something to eat.
"I don't know, maybe McDonald's?" Lucas said, reaching for his phone and turning it on.
We were still eating at a table and doing things on our phones. "Where's your parents? I haven't seen them coming to your house" He said, taking one of my fries and eating it. "Im not sure. My mom wanted to go see her cousins and her mom and shit like that but I didn't wanna go because I had better things to do" I said, playing with my hair. He nodded in agreement and asked what we should do now. I shrugged because it was about 12:00 something and we were really bored. "Maybe if you want we could go on swings or on a bench" I said as well were almost finished eating.
"Now I'm really bored, And don't we have some friends to hang out with?" I whined, still on the swing. "I mean, I have some, but they're probably busy doing something, like sleeping or on vacation" Lucas said, still sitting next to a pole, playing on his mini arcade. I looked up at the sky while the swing shot up again. I always wondered why Lucas was the only mature person around me. It was alright, but it felt weird sometimes because you don't always find 13-year old boys to behave sometimes. Anyways, I told him I was gonna go to the store to buy a snack or something.
"I'm back!" I said in a high-pitched voice, giving Lucas his snack. "Oh thanks" he said, pulling it to his side. I sat back on the swing and put my chocolate bar in my mouth, eating it.
