TRIGGERWARNING (The Less Intense Version)

CHAPTER TWELVE ASH

7:21 am
I woke up and was happy, today I would see David again. I wanted to ask him for his number . I went downstairs and didn’t even eat breakfast, I just rushed out the door. The bus already stood at the station as I came there. I got onto the bus and saw that Chris wasn’t there, so I assumed I would have to sit next to David, I sat down, and he gave m a hug as a welcome gesture. After a few minutes on the ride, I collected all of my energy and said: “Hey David, I think you are really nice, and I would love to get you phone number.” That was it, I said it either I was fucked up now and David thought I was weird, or he felt the same way and gave me his number. He smiled as I asked that question and immediately got his phone out and showed me his number, I couldn’t even explain my feeling at this point. I saved it and named him “David”, and as soon as he didn’t look, I added a cute little heart to his name. I was so proud of myself for asking this question, and he really gave me his phone number. I texted him so he could save my number too, but then I saw how he named me “Ash <3” again he added a heart to my name. I couldn’t get it out of my mind, first my initial with a heart and then my name with a heart. Slowly I thought that my intention was correct, and he really liked me, so I just casually asked him: “hey man, yo like me?” No of course I didn’t do that I would cringe about myself if I did that. I just kept my mouth shut and didn’t say anything for the rest of the bus ride. At school I felt weird, why didn’t I use my opportunity to ask him if he liked me. I wanted to play a sneaky game of truth or dare so I could ask him. I waited for that until we arrived in class, we sat down, and I asked him: “Do you want to play Truth or dare?” He agreed and I asked him if he had a crush, his answer was yes. Then he asked me the same question and I agreed to. Then the next time he picked truth again and I asked him: “Who do you have a crush on?” He turned red and looked away, he said:” U-m can I skip this question?” I didn’t allow him to and then he said in a whispering voice: “You.” I couldn’t believe it, then he just blushed and asked me: “And what about you?” I said: “Maybe uhm you………” He looked at me and looked like he just saw the most beautiful thing on earth. His eyes lit up and he hugged me, then David told me that he had had a crush on me since the first time we met. I didn’t believe it, since when was my life going so well? Then David asked me if I wanted to visit him today, of course I agreed. After school I got ready and went to the address, he sent me. As I rang the doorbell he opened and immediately hugged me, then we went inside. David asked me to pretend I was only his friend from school since he wasn’t out yet. Then we had some lunch and went upstairs, he showed me his favourite shows and asked me what mine was, I showed him on of my comfort show and we binge watched it the whole day. In the evening I returned home and was as happy as I could be. Why was I so happy, was there a bad thing going to happen soon?
