(Sam x Max).Love Tunnel ride. Book 1

.Just friends.

Max: Hey can I come over?

Sam- Of course you're always welcome to my hou-

He gets stopped mid-sentence by a faint yelling behind him

Jessica: SAMM! MAX!! WAIT UP FOR ME!

Jessica runs up towards the two and makes it, she tries to catch her breath after running. She finally catches her breath and says "Hey! Is it okay if I can walk with you guys? My friends sort of left me-"

Sam- Hm? Sure! You live pretty close to my house either way and Max is coming over so-

*Sam gets interrupted again*

Max- On second thought, I'll just go home.

Sam: A-are you sure? I mean-

Max starts to walk away and says the last thing before they depart

Max: Yeah, I'm sure. Besides i don't want to be a third wheel between you guys

Jessica and Sam gets all red and flustered

Sam: b-but-..what about your-

he stops in the middle of his sentence again as Max stops walking. Max turns around towards Sam and just gives a thumbs up and then turns back and walks away and says "Just text me when you get home". He walks away from Sam and Jessica

Sam: W-well I guess it's just you and me..*he says as he blushes*

Jessica: y-yup! Let's go!! *she hides her blush face with her hair*

They both walk home, chatting and laughing with each other

Max gets to his home and he is welcomed back by yelling from both of his parents, he ignores it and goes to check up on his little siblings Samantha and Joe forgetting that they were at their grandpa's house at the time. He's alone. With no one to talk to, but Sam...Max goes to his room and throws his backpack across the room and lays on his bed. He sighs and takes a deep breath in and out, Max puts on his headphones and starts his playlist and drifts off into his thoughts. A tear falls down his cheek, no emotion on his face. He's just about to fall asleep when he hears a ding.

Ding!.....ding!...ding!

Max looks at his phone and sees a text message from Sam

*Sam: MAX! MAX! *

*Sam: When me and Jessica were saying goodbye she HUGGED ME!! CAN'T YOU BELIEVE IT!?*

Sam: We also took a picture together! *sends image*

Max looks away from his phone, Sam always had a crush on Jessica since 4th grade. And It seemed that so did she. Max looks back to him phone and types

*Max: good for you :)*

*Sam: Are you okay?*

*Max: yup*

*Sam: -_- ...*

*Sam: What's wrong :( ? I know something is wrong.*

*Max: You know I'm not good with talking about crushes*

*Sam: Are you sure that's all? Did they?..*

*Max: I'm okayyyy and no.*

*Sam: You know you're welcome anytime to my house*

*Max: yeah yeah i know.*

*Sam: why did you go home btw?*

*Max: Like i said i didn't want to be a third wheel*

*Sam: o//o don't say it like that! We aren't a thing!*

*Max: haha sure 7v7*

*Sam: Anyway I'm going to do some studying*

*Max: @-@ boringgggg*

*Sam: Oh shush, you need to study too!*

*Max: hah! Like i will*

*Sam: >:( you should!*

*Max: over my dead body :D*

*Sam: anyway bye little buddy ^^*

*Max: Bye Sam :)*

Max looks up from his phone and tears pours down his face, Max mumbles under his breath in a low whisper "if only you knew....how much you meant to me, how i don't just see you just as a friend.....I..I love you..You dumb idiot.." his face burns up as Max wipes his tears away and goes to his closet and takes out a shirt. A shirt from Sam which he outgrew and gave it to Max. Max puts on the shirt and it's a little too big on him, but he doesn't mind. He lays back to his bed and starts to go to sleep. His last thought was "it still smells like him.."
