Pip woke with a smile. Despite the slight headache and the tight chest and sore throat, he was in an excellent mood and had slept very well.
Pip curled under his warm duvet and scrolled through the conversation he had with Francis last night. "Krey thinks I'm cute," Pip whispered, grinning wide. Francis had also told Krey that Pip thought he was handsome. How much of their conversation did Krey see?
He held his phone to his chest until his alarm went off. Another Monday morning had come too soon.
Pip was in such a good mood that not even his aunt or uncle could trample on his high spirits.
"You're always rushing around recently. What's wrong with you?" Pip's uncle moaned as Pip hurried around the table to reach the toast.
He had spent too long thinking about Krey and his muscular arms, and now he was running a little
late.
