Matt's pov:

I was playing on my phone for awhile when I felt April wake up...

April yawns...

Matt: "Morning."
April: "What time is it?"
Matt: "10:30am."

April rubs her eyes then she gets up off me to stretch.

Finally I can move my arm.

I stretch my arms and April notices...

April: "Oh is your arm numb?!"
Matt: "Huh?"
April: "Your arm must be numb from having it in the same position for a while. You could've moved your arm while I was sleeping, I wouldn't have minded."
Matt: "It's a little numb, but it's fine and I didn't want to wake you."
April: "Oh okay."
...
Matt: "Anyways I'm going to use the bathroom."

April's pov:

Matt hops out of bed and heads to the bathroom. I grab my phone from off the bedside table and play on it for a while.

Shit I really gotta pee.

I head out of Matt's room to the bathroom. Matt was still inside. I walk up to the locked bathroom door. Just as I was about to knock the door I hesitate.

Should I knock? Maybe I should wait. Ugh I don't know!!

As I was deciding if I should knock, the door suddenly swings open...

Matt's pov:

I finished brushing my teeth and opened the door to head out.

As I opened the door I was startled by April...

April: "Oh uh... hey!"
Matt: "Hey!"
April: "I was um... I was gonna knock because I really need to use the bathroom."
Matt: "Oh okay."

April walks in the bathroom locking the door. I decided to head to the kitchen...

Chris: "Oh your finally awake!"
Matt: "Hey guys."
Nick: "Look Matt, I made pancakes!!"
Matt: "Oh cool!"

I grab a plate and sit down to eat the pancakes Nick made...

Chris: "So April went home last night?"
Matt: "Well actually-"

Nick interrupts me...

Nick: "April is so chill, why don't you bring her over more often?!"
Matt: "I don't know."
Nick: "Why don't we hang out with her again?!."
Chris: "Nick?"
Nick: "Come on Matt, text her to come hang out with us!"
Chris: "Nick!"
Nick: "Don't you really like her?!"
Chris: "NICK!"
Nick: "WHAT?! WHY DO YOU KEEP YELLING AT ME- Oh..."

April: "I was um... I was gonna knock because I really need to use the bathroom."
Matt: "Oh okay."

I shut the bathroom door.

Oh my god that was so embarrassing!!

I finished using the bathroom and washed my hands. I open the door and headed back to Matt's room.

He's not here.

I heard some noise and decided to follow it. It was Nicks voice...

Nick: "Come on Matt, text her to come hang out with us!"
Chris: "Nick!"
Nick: "Don't you really like her?!"
Chris: "NICK!"
Nick: "WHAT?! WHY DO YOU KEEP YELLING AT ME- Oh..."

I stand there awkwardly as everyone stares at me. Matt immediately turned away...

April: "Uh... hey guys."
Nick: "April, I didn't know you were still here!"
April: "Yeah it was really late last night so I stayed the night here."

Nick's pov:

OH MY FUCKING GOD! I hope April didn't hear anything I said.

I look at Matt as he looks pissed at me.

Shit.

Nick: "Uh- April I made pancakes if you want some?!"
April: "Sure!"

Oh god, Matt's gonna kill me!

April's pov:

I sit beside Matt. I look at him but he ignored my presence.

Nick hands me a plate with pancakes.

April: "Thanks Nick!"

Matt immediately gets up putting his plate in the sink and heading to his room.

I watched as Matt walked away.

Nick: "Uh April?"

I turn around to Nick...

April: "Yeah?"
Nick: "How much of our conversation did you hear?!"
Chris: "NICK! Oh my god..."

Chris walks away heading to his room...

I could tell Nick looked stressed...

April: "Uhh... what conversation?"

Nick's face lit up...

Nick: "Oh haha nothing. So um you like the pancakes?"
April: "Yeah it's really good!"
Nick: "Yay that makes me so happy!!"
