yeah [cooper x travis]

eight.

★

it was about 5:56 in the morning. the sun was still hiding under the earth. the boy raised his head off of his pillow and exhaled. it took him a couple of minutes before he actually got out of bed, swinging his feet over the side, running his hand through his curly hair. he checked his phone and sighed, a few texts from a group chat and a few from cooper from throughout the night.

11:32 pm - coopie: dude you wont believe it

11:33 pm - coopie: trav are you awake?

11:35 pm - coopie: i was talking to ted and he told me about what happened during the party and how we kissed. he said that he was high as hell so he thought he imagined it

11:36 pm - coopie: i told him that it might've been and that i didn't know because we were both high. he said he wouldn't be surprised but it didn't surprise him that i was gay, he didn't care at all

11:38 pm - coopie: i felt so relieved

11:42 pm - coopie: thats all, goodnight trav <3

travis smiled at his phone, cooper had late night rambles every once and a while and travis liked waking up to them. he stood up, his vision blacking for a second. he blinked a few times and the blotches of darkness slowly disappeared. he exhaled, stretching his arms up and above his head. he walked over to his door and went into the bathroom that was down the hall. cooper had only been at his house the other day and it felt like one of the best days of his life.

he turned on the shower and proceeded to get ready for the day. scrubbing out his curly hair with shampoo and conditioner, scrubbing body wash on his arms. he put a bit of face wash on his hands and washed his cheeks, nose bridge and forehead. he turned off the shower and stepped out, wrapping a towel around his body. 

he stepped out of the bathroom and back into his bedroom, slipping on a black t-shirt, shorts and a - a white hoodie. coopers white hoodie. cooper had it in his bag the other day when they came to his house and cooper had said that he could have it for a bit. the hoodie had a bit of writing on the back but it was faded and he couldn't figure out what it said. the hoodie strings were a bit funky, they were twisty, as if the blonde would fidget with them a lot.

at the bus stop he met schlatt and carson as per usual. they were both sitting on the curb. carson and schlatt were talking about school gossip before travis arrived. the curly haired boy sat down on the curb beside carson and waited for the bus.

"it's late again." he said, shrugging. carson looked to his phone and opened an app. "it says fifteen minutes this time." he put his phone back into his pocket. "travis," he said, looking over to the boy. "how'd you like the party?" he said, hunching over the side of the curb, studying the pavement under his feet. 

travis shrugged, a soft blush slowly appeared across his face. "i-i thought it was fine." he said, "cooper and i smoked a blunt on the roof and then we went home." not your home. "i mean we went to cooper's house after." he stopped and folded his hands in the sweatshirt pocket. its so soft.

"hey-" schlatt suddenly cut in. "is that cooper's hoodie?" he asked, noticing the logo on the back of it. carson looked at travis with an odd look, he didn't say anything though.

"u-uhm yeah." he said, laughing awkwardly. he felt so awkward. this was so awkward. carson looking deep into his eyes, schlatt with a similar stare. he cleared his throat and carson started to talk.

"i don't think i've ever seen him give out his clothes." he said, giving travis an uncomfortable side glance. 

suddenly they each heard a familiar screech. "oh look theres the bus-" travis said quickly, standing up. once he was up, the bus was right in front of him. "i'll talk to you guys later!" he quickly got onto the bus in a slight panic, sitting away from where carson and schlatt usually sat.

travis opened his locker in a rush, shoving all of his belongings in really quickly. he was about to close the door when the familiar voice of cooper startled him.

"you forgot your binder." he said, opening travis' locker again and digging out the three ringed binder that was full of school work. "you doing okay? did something happen?" he asked as he shut the boys locker softly.

"hey coopie." the brown haired boy looked at him and exhaled shakily. "y-yeah." he muttered, looking away. "schlatt and carson saw i that was wearing your sweatshirt." a red blush went over his face almost immediately. "but i didn't tell them anything i just got on the bus."

the blonde blinked, knitting his eyebrows. "oh shit travis," he mumbled under his breath. folding his arms he looked away. "i'll just tell them that you liked my hoodie, okay?" he suggested, his cheeks somewhat warm. he wasn't ready for them to know everything yet. "and that you borrowed it." travis nodded in agreement. "come on now, we have to get to first period before we both get lunch detention."
