I'm currently in Mattia's car, on the way to his house...

As we pull in to the driveway, it starts to rain...

"OH MY GODD!" I laugh, trying my best to figure out a way to get inside without getting soaking wet.

"Here, I gotchu" Mattia says, taking off his jacket and handing it to me.

"No, I couldn't. You'd get sick.." I say pushing it back towards him.

"Just take it, I'll be fine."

I don't plan on arguing, so I get out of the car, leaving the jacket on the seat.

"What are you doing!" Mattia says, running over to my side. He tries to cover my head, but I run away...

"Y/nnnnn!! It's cold out here what are you doinggg?" He says, catching up to me.

"If you're gonna risk getting sick, so am I." I reply, now standing very close to him.

I guess I started staring, because he started chuckling.

"What's funny?" I say, crossing my arms and looking up at him.

"Nothing, come on."

We head inside and he grabs us a couple of towels.

"What the-" I say, as I drop to the ground. "Why'd you throw them at me"

He just laughs as he takes them off and hands me one.

As we dry up a little, he hands me his shirt.

"Put this on so I can dry yours."

I'm too cold to argue, so I grab it and head towards the bathroom.
———————————————————————————

It's been a couple of hours since we've been working on the project.

I collapse on the floor dramatically.

"What are you doing?" He says, laughing at my sudden action.

"I hatee school" I whine, throwing my arm over my face. "Why do they make us do all this work ANDDD keep us at school for the majority of our lifeee. Like whyyyy"

"I don't know," he laughs. "Wanna take a break?"

"Pleaseeeee" I say, sitting up.

"Okay... what do you wanna do?"

"Lets- mmh I don't really know" I reply.

"How about some FIFA? I can show you how to play."

"Homeboy, don't underestimate my knowledge on video games." I say, as he turns on the console.
———————————————————————————

We play for a couple more hours, until I realize the time..

"Why do I always seem to forget to check the timee" I say, gathering my stuff. "It's getting late.."

"Man, I didn't even realize," he says, laughing a little.

"I should call Bri and ask her to come pick me up"

"No, I'll give you a ride. Don't trip" he says, smiling at me.

I agree and we head outside, into his car.
———————————————————————————

He walks me to my front door...

"Thank you."

"For what?" He asks.

"Keeping me from dying of boredom. God, I probably would have gave up the first second." I say, giggling a little.

He laughs, "No problem. I had fun, too."

I hug him goodbye and head inside.

"OMG!" I hear someone screech from behind me.

"Dude, you scaredd mee!"

"Sorry, it's just, it's late... and you have his shirt on..." Bri begins. "Wait.. did you guys-"

"No!" I cut her off before she can say it. "Dang it! I forgot to get my shirt from the dryer! I got it soaked in the rain."

"Mmh hmm. Well, I was gonna say, nice choice of dude, but nevermind."

I walk upstairs and into my room with her.

"We're just friends, Bri."

"Whatever. I'm not gonna argue about this again." She replies getting up. "But mark my words, you guys are gonna end up catching feel-"

"Okay! Thank you, Bri, for your magnificent guess of my future. Now, can I go to sleep, I'm tiredddd"

She leaves, as I wash up, and go to sleep.
