I walked into the guys house, I felt exhausted from last night, weed always makes me so drowsy the next morning after I smoke it.

And I could hardly sleep with the memories of his hand on my face like that running through my mind.

I glanced around before turning and walking up the stairs once I noticed no one was downstairs, I decided to come over and hang out with nick for a bit since we were texting so why not come over instead.

I went to walk in the direction of nicks room before bumping straight into yumi, my face flushed a little staring into his droopy brown eyes as he looked down at me blankly "..my bad y/n"

"Uh- actually can i talk to you?" I blurted before I could think about it, I had been thinking about confronting him about his actions since it was confusing me a bit and I wasn't sure what to think.

He raised a brow slightly before nodding and walking off to his room, I followed closely behind and shut the door behind us once we entered.

He turned to me with his hands in his basketball short pockets, staring down at me with sudden nonchalance, like he didn't care much to talk to me right now "so.. what?.."

"Um.. well you remember what happened last night right?" I questioned, he obviously should but I was trying to make this feel less awkward.

"..yeah? Why?"

I stared into his deep brown eyes for a moment almost losing myself in that stupid trance he always had over my head when I was near him "why did you do that?"

"What are you even talking about y/n?" He asked, subtle confusion crossing his blank expression.

"You caressed my face, Blake. Why?" I said a bit more firmly now, I didn't like how nonchalant he seemed right now, was he trying to play dumb?

"I don't know, I wanted to?" He retorted very 'matter of factly'

"Yes but why. You do this every time we get high together and I don't get it, do you like me or something? Do you just think I'm pretty? What're you getting at?" I crossed my arms, gouging any subtle reaction I possibly could but there was nothing.

Did he seriously not care about this?

"You're attractive, I've told you this." He stated with a shrug and a sigh, as if I was wasting his time.

I am not the one for this, I will pop this white boy in his mouth "cut the shit."

"What? Dude, you're attractive, what else do you want from me?" He got a little defensive now, his expression shifting slightly to one of annoyance and confusion at what I expected from him.

I scoffed, I was dumbfounded, and I had no idea what to do in this situation.

"Look man, i got shit to do and I- I don't have time to argue about nothing right now" he said shaking his head and placing a hand on my shoulder before gently showing me out of his room and the door was shut behind me before I could even process.

Now here I stand, still feeling confused, but now also stupid for whatever reason.

I huffed out a sigh as me and nick sat at either ends of his bed, we were throwing a hakki sack back and forth across his bed while I rambled on about the situation between me and Blake, though I acted like Blake was someone else and twisted a few parts so it was undetectable.

Nick huffed out a sigh too once I was done explaining, he paused on throwing the hakki sack back and thought for a moment.

"I think.. he could be unsure of his feelings? Maybe that's why he's acting like mr nonchalant since he could've taken you leaving so suddenly as like.. rejection or something." He threw the hakki sack back to me

"Because I know that I would never touch a girl so intimately like that if I didn't feel something for her, high or sober." He finished

"I don't know.. the guy has me confused, I don't know if I should kick him to the curb or not, honestly with how he reacted it makes me want to stomp him into a curb, but that's not legal." I shrugged throwing the hakki sack to him again

"Yeah, I get you.. it really is a weird situation isn't it? I mean- one day he's super sweet to you and the next he's acting like that? It makes no sense to me because personally- if I like a girl I'm gonna tell her, not dodge and act like a dick all of the sudden." He spoke as his brows furrowed at the thought and he shook his head in confusion

"Right! I literally have no idea what his intentions are.."

"Well... I say, keep your options open but just see where things go with him and if he gets that stick out of his ass. Try and see if you can figure out his intentions more through his actions." Nick replied giving me a small reassuring smile

"Okay.. I'll try that, thanks nick i really appreciate you" I gave him a smile back before throwing myself across the bed into him and giving him a tight hug causing him to mumble an 'ow' as I almost squeezed the air out of him.

Though he still hugged me back for a bit before shoving me off playfully "okay that's enough, I'm gonna suffocate"
