“Hello, Erich, how are you doing?” Joseph texted Erich, who was making his food.
“Hi Joseph, I am doing okay and you?” Erich responded.
“I am okay too, I’m glad you’re doing okay. What are you busy with? Studying?” Joseph asked.
“No, I am making food for myself. How about you?” Erich asked.
“I am just on my couch playing games and chatting with you. What are you making?” Joseph asked.
“Oh! Nice, I am making a toast only.” Erich said while picking up his plate to the living room.
“I should cook for you more often; you can’t sleep with a toast only.” Joseph said with a blush.
“I would love that, and I forgot to tell you that we enjoyed your food so much. You are a great cooker.” Erich stated with a smile on his face.
I approached the girl, and we started walking slowly, talking and it was so much fun talking with her. It made me to forget most of my problems until she said “I always see you with Erich, and I was asking myself, how can a handsome guy like you? Be with someone like Erich.” While rolling her eyes.
I just ignored her, and went down with my jogging, going back to my apartment. I got so pissed of what she said about Erich. Erich yes, he betrayed me, but that doesn’t mean I hate him, or I will be angry at him forever. I just can’t be seemed to have an affair with a guy, I’m into girls, and I know that.

Zack just got inside his bedroom, where he left the phone on the charger, on top of his study desk. He was having a breakfast time with his parents. He switched on his phone, while sitting down on the corner of his bed with a smile thinking about Jack. The phone switched on, unlocked it, and went to his I.G to check Jack’s messages, his smile disappeared when he opened Jack message.
“I am blocking you?” Zack asking himself with a whisper. Frustration and confusion start looming over him.
He threw his phone hard on his bed and made it to bump once. He begins to pace around his room with his both hands on his head. He’s so frustrated because I.G was the only site where he can communicate with Jack, and now that he blocked him, he doesn’t know what to do, and sad part, he can’t ask Zoe about Jack. Zack sat down on his bed, starts thinking hard on what to do, but he seems not coming up with a better solution than taking his phone and start talking to Zoe, so that he could start being close to Jack.
Jack regret blocking Zack a little, because he was really having fun chatting with Zack, but he keeps telling himself that he did a right thing by blocking Zack. Jack focused himself on studying just to forget about Zack. He then heard Zoe screaming so loud that made their parents to go running to Zoe’s room along with Jack.
“What’s wrong Zoe?” Zoe’s mom asking with a shocking voice. They are all inside Zoe’s room.
“I saw a fly, it got out immediately you opened the door.” Zoe stated with her phone at the back. She hid her phone when her door opens.
“Phew! Okay, you scared us. Go back to your study.” Zoe’s dad said while turning to leave Zoe’s room.
Jack standing at Zoe’s door looking at her, who had blushes all over her face.
“What?” Zoe asked with a wide smile on her face.
“Why are you having that weird smile?” Jack asked.
“It’s not weird, it’s a blush, my dear brother.” Zoe response with a happy tone.
“So what’s going on?” Jack asked. Whilst folding his arms.
“Uhmmm…. Zack just texted me.” Zoe said with a hint of smile, accompanied by the pout.
“Okay! Good.” Jack stated and storm out of Zoe’s room.
Aaron was about to sleep, then he heard a loud scream from the building, it felt like the scream was just next to him. It was around 1am, then it went quiet for few minutes until the scream came out loud this time. He went out of his flat room, then realized the scream come from the front opposite to his room. He went to the room door and knock then no one answered. He knocked with a loud shout until he just opens the door hoping the door would open, and to his surprised it did.
He ran to the bedroom, because the shouting was not stopping, and he finds Chris. “Wait, Chris my neighbor? The whole time?” Aaron asking himself. “Is he having a nightmare?”
Aaron start shaking Chris who seem not waking up. He took a bottle of water that was next to Chris bed on the drawer. He opened it, pour small amount of water inside his hand and start splashing the water on Chris face. Chris woke up panting from the water splash and the nightmare he was having.
“Chris, are you okay? Were you having a bad dream?” Aaron asked with a worried face, while handing Chris a towel he found on the chair. “I didn’t know you were my neighbor!”
“How did you get in?” Chris asked with a shock on his face.
“Your door was unlocked.” Aaron stated while looking at Chris.
“I’m sorry for the noise. I just moved in here today. I was staying at the campus res. So, my roommate complained a lot until my parents decided to find me a flat room. I struggle to sleep somewhere new, so I end up having nightmares.” Chris stated with a very sad tone and face.
Aaron just saw himself hugging Chris so tight.
“I understand. I will sleep with you tonight. Do you want to sleep in my room or here?” Aaron stated.
“Thank you but no, I don’t want to bother you.” That sad face again appeared on Chris face while stating that.
“No, it’s not a bother. Let’s go to my room.” Aaron stated while grabbing Chris hand.
Chris went to Aaron’s room with Aaron. Aaron was about to prepare his sleep on the floor because he knows that Chris his into guys and he might not want to share a bed with him, but he got surprised when Chris allowed him to sleep on the bed with him.
Aaron didn’t hesitate, I mean sleeping on the floor it’s not comfortable at all. Aaron wrapped his arms around Chris body when Chris starts shaking from his nightmares, but Aaron’s arms cooled him down. And they both slept peacefully.
