I really tried to focus, I really did. But my mind kept wandering over to Chase.

How would I ask him out? I barely had talked to him more than twice. It usually went like this:

"Hey." I said.

"Hi." he said, nodding his head at me.

And that was that.

Suddenly my head left Morg's shoulder, and I looked up to see his eyes on me.

"Everything okay?" he asked.

I drifted my eyes away from him, to his phone screen, muttering a quiet 'yes.' He paused the movie, lifting my chin so our eyes were leveled to each other.

"Tell me what's wrong."

"I'm fine." I tried to pry his fingers off his phone to get the movie to start playing back, but then he turned it off and slid it into his pocket.

"C'mon Amy, we both know 'I'm fine' basically means you're not. And you're doing that cute thing you do with your eyebrows whenever you lie."

A singsong voice rung in my head, Busted.

I looked up at him again his hazel eyes staring right through my soul. Finally, I murmured, "I've been thinking...about stuff."

He snorted, "Since when do you not."

I smiled softly at him, I was so lucky to have him as my best friend, I don't think I would have be the person I am today without him. 

"Seriously Morg, I'm fine, thanks for asking." I pecked his forehead in reassurance.

"I'm going to find out anyway." he grumbled not affected. I discreetly rolled my eyes, turning away slightly so my arm can reach over to grab his phone out of my pocket.

I placed in his passcode and positioned the phone on his shirt, and played the movie. Morgan's arm tightened its hold on my shoulder, my head falling onto his chest.

"You know I'm your bestest, bestest friend right?" he said.

"And I'm yours." 

I looked up at him then said teasingly, "Now can we please watch the movie."

"Yes ma'am."
