It's after school and all I could think about was what Demetri said at lunch "losing your virginity in highschool, for Eli here." I do like Eli more than a friend but I don't think he does.

"Hey hun how was school?" -my mom asks as I walk in.- "ok ish! I have a lot of homework. I'll talk later" -I say-

~Time jump~

"Hey mom I'm gonna go ask Eli if he can help me with homework or if he wants to do it with me. Is that ok?" -I ask- "yes just be home by 10:45" -she says- "ok" -I say- "don't do anything other than homework please." -she says- "EW MOM" -I say walking out-

As I approach the door my heart skips a beat.I finally knock and Eli answers, he has tears streaming down his face. He's sniffling,whimpering,and shaking. The full mental breakdown pack, something was seriously wrong but I didn't know what...I feel so bad for him,he doesn't deserve this.

I heard his mom on the phone in the kitchen in the distance talking to someone about something. I immediately got a concerned look on my face. I put my hands on his cheeks and wiped his tears with my thumbs,my hand was soaking wet from his tears. 'Poor thing' I thought inside my head.

His hands were in front of his stomach,he was really fidgety. I grabbed his hands and held them in mine,held them comfortingly. This all happened in a span of about a minute or 45 seconds.

"Hey... hey...? What's wrong?" -I ask- Eli shook his head "it's nothing .." -Eli says- "somethings seriously wrong. I want to make sure you're ok...i can leave if you need or want me too...?" -I say- "this is embarrassing... you can stay if you want.. I was gonna ask you if you wanted to stay for a bit to maybe hang out? If you don't it's ok..." -he says- "awww it's ok,don't be embarrassed.! Of course! I'll stay to make sure your ok, I can do homework later!" -I say- "ok... thank you. You didn't have to do this... you know that right?" -Eli says- "yes I know but I want you to know... I'll always be here for you! I'll always be on your side, I'll always be at my house if you ever want to talk or anything!" -I say- after I said that Eli started to lightly cry but quietly... "thank you..." -Eli says sniffling- "c-can I hug you?" -I ask hesitantly- "mhm" -Eli says- "aww come here..." I wrapped my arms around Eli and let him cry on my shoulder, the longer I hugged him the harder he cried. I felt his shaking against my body.it broke my heart. His head was resting in the crook of my neck,his cold soggy cheek against mine.

That was the first time I hugged him, he smelt so good. He smelt like warm butterscotch and old spice deodorant. I didn't want to let go but after Melissa got off the phone she asked Eli "who is that Eli?" -Mrs Moskowitz asks- "oh it's just y/n.. can she stay for a bit? -Eli asks- "of course! Let her in" -she says- "you guys have a very lovely home!" -I say- "it's your home too!!" -she says- "thank you! Same for my house, you guys are welcome anytime!" -I say- "alright, I'll let you guys go upstairs and have fun!" -Melissa says- "ok, thank you again!" -I say- "don't have to much fun!" -Melissa says- that caused both me and Eli to blush BIG TIME! "Mom shut up! Your embarrassing me! Don't scare her off this is her first time here and probably her last" -Eli says- "Eli it's fine!" -I say- "see! She doesn't care!" -Melissa says- "yeah Eli chill out it's ok!" -I say- "I'm sorry hun! He talks about you a lot!" -Melissa says- "oh Eli is that true?" -I say blushing- "maybe.." -Eli says looking away from me to hide him blushing-

We walked down a long hallway and we approached a door with caution tape dangling from the door frame. Eli opens his door. The amount of posters on his wall is so cute! Gaming posters, doctor who, video games, Harry Potter! His led lights are on white, his room smells so good! Like him. His room is huge by the way. He has his own bathroom!

"Omg Eli your room is awesome!" -I say- "really? I thought you would make fun of me for it" -Eli said- "of course not!" -I said- Eli goes to sit on his bed. I have no idea what to do, so I very awkwardly sit at his desk. "You can sit where ever you want! You could sit in that bean bag, on my swing in the corner over there,or you could s-sit with me..." -Eli says - after Eli said I could sit with him he blushed, and he scooted over. Was it that obvious i wanted to sit with him? I hope not. I very reluctantly sat next to him on his bed.

"You don't have to sit with me.. it was just an idea..." -Eli says- "no! I do wanna sit with you" -I say trying not to make it awkward- I could tell he was really happy by me saying that. I scooted closer, it was around 8:27. "Do you wanna watch a movie...?" -Eli asks- "yes!! What do you wanna watch?" -I ask- "could you quiet down a bit? I hope that didn't sound mean... it's my sensory stuff I don't really like loud... but I'm ok with anything!" -Eli said- "oh..! I'm sorry of course,have you seen titanic" -i say- "no, but I want to..! Can we watch it?" -Eli asks- "yes! It's one of my favorites" -I say- "ok,We got it settled..! What time do you have to be home?" -Eli asks- "10:45" -I say "ok..! We might have to finish it another time.. because it's already 8:45" -Eli says- "aww ok" -I say-

Eli turns titanic on and during the first 2 minutes where it's just credits and stuff not the movie.

"Hey... y/n? I'm sorry for earlier. I'm still embarrassed." -Eli says- "oh it's ok.. don't be embarrassed! It's ok to cry" -I say-
