Chapter 4

                                                                                 Brooklyn P.O.V.

After watching random TV shows with Dawson and my mind drifting to Dallas for almost 10 minutes my parents text me telling me to just stay the night at Dawson's house, once it became about 12am Dawson and I said goodnight after he helped me set up the couch with blankets and pillows and then went up to his room. Laying on the couch I hear the backdoor open and immediately sit up then laid back down when I realize it was just Dallas and he looks at me and says "Why are you still here?"  "I'm staying the night" "Why are you still in your clothes from earlier that can't be comfortable, come with me," he says walking towards the stairs so I get up and follow him into his bedroom? It's the first room on the right his room is a little larger than mine with a bed in the middle a desk across the room and a TV on a stand in front of the bed against the opposite wall and a closet to the right of the bed.

He goes into his closet then hands me a pair of his sweatpants and a hoodie then he holds them out "Here" I slowly reach out and take them and as I'm walking into the bathroom that's adjacent to his room. I quickly change into his clothes and notice I might actually enjoy the smell of them? they smell like his musky cologne, as I walk out I notice Dallas sitting on the edge of the bed and look up at me when I walk out "Uh thanks for the clothes" I say while walking to the door to go back to the couch "Do you want to watch a movie?"  I turn around to face Dallas "What movie?"  "Anything other than some dumb chick flick"   "Captain America Civil War?" I say unsure "Deal" he scoots back on his bed and pats the spot next to him I get into his bed and sit next to him.

Halfway through the movie, I yawn "Tired?" Dallas asks turning his head to me "Maybe" I respond and he opens his arms "Come here"  "W-what?" I say confused "since when is Dallas nice to me like this" I wonder and slowly move into his arm and lay my head on his chest and he puts his left arm over me and drags his fingers on my arm that's covered by his hoodie and slowly fall asleep...

When I wake up I momentarily forget where I am but I quickly remember when I hear soft snores above me, turning to look up at a sleeping Dallas with his hair everywhere he looks so peaceful and calm. After staring at him for maybe 10 minutes he starts to stir in his sleep and wakes up and I get up before he really wakes up "What are you doing in here?" he says in his slight deeper than normal voice morning voice "Oh uh I fell asleep while watching Captain America" I say while walking into his bathroom to change back into my clothes and regretfully pulling his hoodie off me wishing I could continue to wear it, after changing I walk out and hand him his clothes back I'm slightly shivering even if I am wearing my own hoodie it's still cold considering how warm Dallas's was. 

In a shock to me he opens his arms "come here you're shivering" I'm shocked he's still being nice but I do crawl back into his bed and under the covers with him "It's also 7 am brook" he says as he pulls me back into his arms not that I'm complaining, I always thought Dallas was cute I mean he does like Dawson but something about him I always found attractive "Go back to sleep" he says holding me close and tight and I quickly fall asleep. 

I wake up to knocking on the door "Dallas have you seen Brook?" I hear his mom say through the door and I look around for Dallas and see him putting on a muscle T-shirt and then he replies "Yeah she came to use my phone and text her parents since her phone died" he lies, and I give him a grateful smile "Okay well tell her breakfast is ready when she's done" Angelica says as she walks away and I get up quickly "I uh thanks"  "Yeah whatever" he says and I walk downstairs after brushing my fingers through my hair "Weird he was just being nice to me a few hours ago whatever he was probably just tired" I think and grab one of the muffins from the muffin pan and eat it as I watch Dallas come downstairs and completely ignore me.

After eating breakfast I put on my tennis shoes and drive back to my house upon entering the house I give my parents both a hug as they head to work it may be Sunday but oh well so I make my way to my room and change into leggings and a tie-dyed cropped shirt and finish my homework then I re-watch episodes of Grey's Anatomy and just as an episode ends my phone dings to let me know I got a message and I check and of course it's from him 

Dallas Grey

"Movie night on Thursday?"-1:28pm 

Did Dallas just ask to have a movie night with me? I reread the text before responding

Dallas Grey 

"Iron Man 1?"-1:31pm 

"Alright 10 pm on Thursday"-1:32pm

"It's a date"-1:32pm 

"you wish brook"-1:33pm

Did I just agree to watch another movie with Dallas??? Deciding not to think about it I go back to watching Grey's Anatomy. The rest of Sunday is uneventful 

I wake up at 7:30 to get ready for school which is basically a pair of joggers and a hoodie I pack everything into my backpack and drive to school and as I walk into the school I look around for Dawson and Dallas I find Dallas first and walk up to him "Hey" he looks at for me a second then back at his friends completely ignoring me so I sigh and walk away and find Dawson and talk to him about some history text we have on Wednesday the rest of the school day is boring class to class and full of Dallas ignoring me I thought he might talk to me after what happened on Saturday but nothing, not a word but I do catch him looking at me during lunch and in passing to classes I should've known that it meant nothing I suppose.

Tuesday rolls around and radio silence from Dallas nothing. nothing at all. I don't understand why I'm upset it was one night but he was so sweet and he's never been like that before he gave me some of his clothes to wear, I slept on his chest. I should really stop overthinking this it was one night I mean we are doing a movie night but I highly doubt anything will happen.

Wednesday comes around and I go over to Dawson's house to do homework together and watch episodes of random daytime TV while we talk about the upcoming midterms and never once do I see or hear Dallas. Dawson said he went out with a few friends to go get food and to talk about Alice, she's finally getting her funeral on Saturday, I still can't imagine the pain he's going through...
