I had no dream but I felt completely at peace, as if a nagging weight had been lifted off me. I try to shift my body but I couldn't. I was stuck in place, and now that I think about it, it was a bit stuffy and hard to breath. I move my head back with a groan,feeling a bit a cold air take the place of the warmth,  still unable to move my body against what ever comfort was holding me.

My eyes then struggle to squint open due to morning light, I wrestle to keep them open while they adjust on what I was looking at, I lean back a bit more to see full lips in front of me, and the signature labret on the bottom lip. I slowly blink as my brain tries to compute and then I steadily look upwards to see Hobie's lashes laid softly against his cheeks. My face heat immediately, and I feel myself stop breathing for a moment as I stare at him. His lips parted, his soft breath just barely reaching my face.

I couldn't help but stare at him for a moment until my phone starts ringing. I try to move quickly without waking him and I use one hand to feel for my phone. Hastily silencing it as I pull it to my face to read the name.

'Gweenie🩰'

Gwen?! Why is she calling me?!!

I glance to Hobie, who was still asleep and then hesitantly answer the phone and put it to my ear. "Pav?" She asked immediately.
"Gwen?" I whispered back.
"Hey do- why are you whispering?"
"Um..  ya know just woke up and... why'd you call, anything wrong?" I redirect the question.
"Um.. well no, nothings wrong. I tried calling Hobie's phone but he isn't picking up." She explained.

Wait, she knows I'm with him?

"He said y'all would have a sleepover, is here near you?" She added.
"O-oh! Yeah! Yeah he's here. He's sleep." I whispered.
"Oh okay. Well tell him to call me when he wakes up."
"I could relay a message!" I quickly chime in.
"No it's fine, just have him call me." She said and stated her goodbyes before hanging up.

I sigh and stare at my phone as it goes black. Every since I figured I liked Hobie, I've always been jealous of how close she and him are. What is it that she wants to say that she can't tell me?

I pause for a moment and look at the ceiling. I used to be worried of the thought of them sleeping together or having some sort of relationship. Unfortunately after last night I only feel as if he used me. I feel like I shouldn't have let it happen despite wanting it so bad.

It's not like I know for sure they've done anything at all, but just the thought of it made my heart feel so fragile.

" 'Mornin' Pav" I hear his deep accent speak out and my eyes quickly whip to him to see his half-lidded eyes tiredly looking back at me. "Who 'ya textin?" His voice spoke out once more. I was a bit shocked by his deep morning voice. His thick accent and sleepy voice made every sentence sound like one word.

Don't tell him.

"Uh Gwen was-..."
His eyes fix on me as he waits for me to finish.

Shit now I have to tell him

".... Was um. She was trying to call you."
He stared at me for a moment, his eyes traced over my features as if he was trying to decipher the look on my face.

"M' sure it can wait." He mumbles with a bit of a shrug.
"Yeah?!" I say a bit too loud and far too excitedly. He paused for a just a split second before laughing. "Yeah. I can stay longer." He tightened the embrace he had me in and gave me a kiss on the cheek.

But he couldn't stay longer, after a few minutes he had to go home because of 'bloody government shenanigans' as he put it.

"Wait do you have your phone? Don't forget it." I mention as he opens the portal. "Hm? Didn't bring it." He turned around to me. "What?" "Didn't need ma' cell, I was already with you." He said and backed into the portal, giving me a sly smirk and a wave as it closed behind him.

I stare at the where the portal was before it disappeared, my mouth slowly rising into a smile as I understood what he meant. I then lean back into the bed and face the ceiling. A dumb smile on my face as I thought about last night. But soon it dropped immediately.

"Bro... Gayatri..." I groan and slide my hands over my face. I have to end what ever relationship we have.

I've had a crush on her for months and here I am deciding to throw away all my progress. Even if I can't date Hobie, it's not fair for her if I still have feelings for him. Maybe I should tell her today, better not than never.

I sit up one more. Well after I wash my sheets again.
~~~~⏰ Time skip

I was walking around Mumbattan, trying to gather my words to say to her, unconsciously I walked right through her favorite part of the city. And of course I see her sitting on a bench nearby. I was about to immediately turn around when:

"Pav!" She called out and I cursed at myself a bit, before giving her a smile and coming to sit next to her. "Hey Gayatri, I actually want to talk to you." I said a bit nervous and she tilted her head a little. "Yeah?" She continued with her same beautiful smile that used makes me melt.

I stared at her for a moment before looking away with a sheepish hand against my neck. "Pavitr what's wrong?" She leaned in to see my face. I take a breath and slowly shift my eyes towards her before shifting my entire body and grabbing her hands gently.

"I... I know I asked you out first and then you wanted to wait to get to know each other more but..." I hesitated to continue and she started to look at me with a shifting face of worry. "I'm sorry but I can't continue on like this anymore." I finally said and she stared at me silently for a moment.

"What?! It's it because I took so long to agree? I- I want to date!" She spoke quickly and i gently squeezed her hand. "Gaya.." "we can date!" "Gaya please.. I'm sorry." I said much quieter and I could see tears begin to form in her eyes. "I just.. I think it's time to end this..." "why?" "What?" "Why? What happened?" She looked at me with a demand for an answer. She deserved to know the truth, some of it atleast.

"I.. I fell for someone else. And-" "who?" "Gaya please, you don't know them." I tell her and she turns away and I could hear her let out a soft cry. I wanted to console her but she already pulled her hands away from me. "Yeah, I get it." She nodded and tried to keep wiping her tears. "Gaya..." I try to reach out to her again but decide against it. "No I... I get it. I really do. And I want you to be with whoever you're happiest with." She tried to compose herself as she looked at me, but she couldn't help but keep crying. "I just- I wish I didn't make you wait. I really do love you, i just want to get to know you a bit-" she choked on a sob and I can't help but scoot closer to hug her. My own tears already trailing down my face and she shifted to cry into my shoulder.

I felt bad, no, I felt terrible. But it had to be done. I felt like I was losing more than a potential girlfriend. I was worried I was losing a friend too.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After a while I put on my suit and went swinging around to calm myself and think. I finally landed on a building after scoping the area. I leaned against a pole and began twirling my bangle on a silk string. Watching its golden shape spin and dance and I tangled and detangled it.

Now what? Do I reach out to Hobie? Maybe he's still busy?

I think for a moment and when I blink back to reality I notice my hand on my watch, ready to open a portal to his earth. I think for a second. I should at least text first right? Or something? But after just a few more seconds, i decide to just go through.

Once through, I glance around the loud city as I swung from building to building. It took me a lot longer than I wanted to admit to find his place. Once I did I quickly hopped off the wall of the building and came through the entrance of the apartment to his floor. Once at his door I knock on it and it takes several seconds. Maybe he wasn't home? Before I could knock again? I hear it began to unlock and it open to reveal Gwen.

"Oh hey Pav." She smiled happily.

I felt a surge of anger and jealous strike through me, making me hesitate to speak. Should I just leave? I don't even have a proper excuse. Wait no, I want answers. I deserve answers, right?
