"Y/n, wake up.", I hear someone say, but I don't open my eyes,
"Y/n.", they say again, but this time shake my shoulders. I groan loudly and try to push them away,
"If you don't wake up, I'll tickle you.", they say and my eyes immediately open. I rub my eyes and I see Jack standing over me. I frown and look around to see that I'm on the floor,
"Why am I on the floor?", I ask and sit up,
"I don't know, you fell asleep there last night.", he says,
"Oh.", I mumble and stand up from the floor,
"Do you want coffee?", he asks and walks away,
"Yes please.", I say. Last night I came to Jack's dorm to spend some time with him and Lily. They made me feel so much better. Tom asked me if I wanted him to come, but I told him no and that I would like to spend time with my friends. He surprisingly understood, but he did walk me here. I, Jack, and Lily just hung out and watched movies. And then somehow I ended up sleeping on the floor,
"Where's Lily?", I ask Jack and sit on the edge of his bed,
"She went to go get changed because she has classes this morning.", he tells me,
"Wait she's going to class?", I laugh,
"Yeah I know, shocking.", he chuckles and walks over to me with a mug. He hands it to me and I thank him. He sits down next to me and I look over at the clock to see it's 9:30. My first class is at 12, so I don't have to leave till 11,
"You feeling better today?", he asks,
"Yeah, I am. Thank you for last night.", I say and take a sip of my coffee,
"You don't have to thank me, I was just glad I could help.", he smiles and I smile back at him. It's silent for a couple of moments before Jack speaks up,
"So how is it with you and Tom? Last time I knew, you two weren't on the best of terms.", he says,
"We're good now.", I say quietly, not knowing if I should tell him we're dating,
"Well that's good.", he says and brings his cup to his lips,
"We're dating.", I blurt out, and he chokes on his coffee,
"What?", he asks with wide eyes and looks at me,
"We're dating.", I say again, but quieter. It takes him a minute to process what I said before he responds,
"Oh.", is all he says,
"Are you mad? I didn't know if I should tell you, but I didn't want to hide it from you because you're my best friend. Nobody knows yet, because it only happened a couple of days ago.", I say,
"No! I'm not mad, I'm just surprised...", he says,
"Okay, good.", I say and sigh in relief,
"Thank you for telling me though. And I won't tell anyone. It's up to you two to tell people when you want to.", he says,
"Thank you.", I smile. I take another sip of my coffee and I hear him laugh quietly next to me. I look over at him confused,
"But, Tom dating?", he says and I chuckle,
"Yeah, I know.",
"Are you going to tell Lily?", he asks,
"I'm debating on it, because she'll probably tell everyone on campus, but probably.", I say,
"Yeah you better be careful with her.", he laughs,
"I don't want to tell a lot of people because I don't know what Tom wants to do.", I tell him,
