Chapter 6 Confessions
"What?" I looked at him, I could feel tears forming now too. "I, Sorry, I thought it was just a misunderstanding, but when I came to your house last night, I realized it not just that. When I caught a cold, I couldn't help but want to see you, I'm sorry I didn't tell you earlier I just wanted to-"
I didn't let him finish before I got him back in a hug "so that's what that feeling was" "wait what"
I finally realized Why I was so worried after all, but it just sounds crazy right? We've only known each other for a couple of days. But I can't hide anymore.
"What are you talking about, this feeling?" I let go of him and looked at him "me too" he looked at me for a couple of seconds, then he started laughing "just look at us, we're crazy" I started laughing too "Yeah"
After that it got quiet again "so..was that everything you wanted to tell me?" I looked at him. He looked at the ground, his face turning red "Well, I wanted to know your answer" I pulled him in a hug again "are you stupid or what"
We just stood there for a while, and after the bell rang again, we both went back to class.
I wonder what's going to happen now.
--
After school, we met up at the bus stop, he tried to make as less eye contact as possible. It was actually kind of awkward, as much as I didn't want to admit it.
We didn't talk much on the way home, when he got to his stop. He said goodbye then left.
When I got closer to home I realized, how do I tell my mom about this? I mean, I could just, not tell her. But she'll find out eventually.
She always find out. Now I got nervous. And it only got worse the closer the bus came to my stop
--
I walked in, my mom was busy in the kitchen, my dad wasn't home yet, I could hear my brother upstairs.
I walked to the living room, trying to not make any sound. But my mom came in and saw me standing there "what's wrong...what are you doing?" "I- Uhm, nothing. I just came home."
I walked over to the couch and took a seat. "Why didn't you say anything when you came inside"
"I just didn't want to disturb you that's all" she looked at me suspicious, but returned to the kitchen, nothing happened for the rest of the evening. I managed to hide it... for now
After helping clean up, I went to my room, the second i got inside, my phone went off.

____________________________________________________________
We spend the rest of the evening just messing around with emojis and other things.
It felt nice to be silly with him for once.
He stopped answering about an hour or 2 later, I assumed he fell asleep. I put away my phone and thought about next week, when I realized this could be called a date, i pushed my face into my pillow, hiding my face from whoever might walk in. After a while I fell asleep myself.
--
the next day, nothing exciting happened, it was the first time there was no issue or anything that might make the day interesting. Emily was sick at home. So she wasn't there to tease me. Daniel and Ein got forced into an assignment. And Rachel... I'm not sure about Rachel...
During lunch we went to the classroom again, and just talked about all sorts of things. I liked having that. I started getting tired after 10 minutes I guess we did stay up pretty late.
"Hey? Did you get any sleep last night?" Adam suddenly asked "Yes, a little why?" "Because you keep yawning, it's distracting". I didn't t realize it, but I really felt tired.
"Oh, I'm sorry, yeah guess I couldn't really sleep. "Maybe you could take a nap.." he suggested "now? What about school.?" "You can miss an hour, it's not the end of the world" I looked at him in surprise, "woah never thought you'd be such a rebel" I laughed, putting my head on the table.
"It's not like that." He got up and grabbed a book from the table on the other side of the room, he walked back and took a seat on the floor "come here" he said tapping on the ground next to him "why" I asked as I got up "because that table can't be comfortable " he said as I sat down next to him.
"What do you mean" "you can use my lap as a pillow" that caught me off guard "w-what?" "It's okay, what? you don't want to?" He asked, looking a bit disappointed. Of course I want to, not only I'm tired but...I.. "Yeah" I said and got down, putting my head on his lap, facing up.
He was already back in his book. It made me laugh and he looked down "what's so funny" he asked with a straight face.
"Nothing, it's just... you're adorable." His face turner red and he tried to hide in his book again, I closed my eyes and fell asleep for a little bit.
--
When I woke up, there was a book on my face. When I pick it up, I see that Adam had also fallen asleep.
I slowly try to get up so I could reach my phone, but when I tried to grab it, he falls against me. I was afraid to move, I looked over and saw his face on my shoulder.
"Hmm?" Suddenly He began to wake up, he looked up at me, and suddenly stops. Our faces were just inches apart, "Uhm.." Not moving our faces
"Haha.." we looked each other in the eyes, and
we were about to close the small distance there still was, when we heard the bell ring.
I quickly got up and looked somewhere else "ahem... so.. did that sleep help" He asked as he got up, putting his book back where he found it, and grabbing his bag.
"Yeah...thanks" I pick up my phone and see we only slept a little, there was 1 more hour of school left. So we rushed to the classroom.
We came in just a little late, but since this was the first time, and only a couple of minutes, the teacher let is slide. My friends looked at me, wondering where I was, I just looked away.
--
After school, the awkwardness was pretty much gone, we went back home as usual, I got home and after eating and homework I went to bed.
Just before I fell asleep, I thought about what happened earlier...we almost....
Just thinking about it made me blush, I got under my blankets and fell asleep. I couldn't wait for next week.
