''so i basically have to spend the entire day with chris? great.'' dasha muttered sarcastically as she rolled her eyes.

''not really. you can hang with us at some points.'' matt pointed out.

''i just really don't want to be left with chris today.''

''you said it wasn't that bad yesterday.'' nea said.

''did something happen last night?'' matt asked.

''no guys.'' dasha replied. ''i just don't want to be left with him...he's annoying.''

nea laughed slightly. ''you're so silly, dasha. i love you.''

she gave her a small smile, ignoring the anxiety feeling in her stomach. ''love you.''

''i'm stuck with dasha all day?'' chris sighed. ''how long would it take me to run home?'' 

nick laughed. ''she's not that bad, chris! you said so yourself!''

''clearly i was dreaming.'' he muttered.

''did something happen between you both last night?'' alahna asked.

''of course not. it's a really normal thing to not want to be stuck with somebody you hate all day.'' he replied passive-aggressively.

nick and alahna looked at each other, and then back at chris.

''you sure?'' nick asked.

''very.'' chris sighed. ''guess I'm stuck with her all day.''

dasha went in search for chris, whilst he went in search for her. he was walking towards the field when he saw matt standing on his own near the building, typing on his phone. he walked to him, and smiled.

''hey, bro.''

''hey.'' chris said. ''why are you stood on your own?''

''nea and dasha are using the bathroom. what are you doing?''

''unfortunately looking for dasha.''

''looks like you found her.'' matt replied jokingly. 

''kill me now.''

matt laughed slightly before hesitating. he knew asking could piss chris off, but he just had to find out. 

''chris?''

''yeah?''

''dasha said you didn't even snore last night-''

''i told you i don't snore.'' chris replied proudly.

''the recording on my phone says different!''

''that was nick!''

''no, it-'' matt began, and then sighed. ''we both know you snore, man. why didn't you last night?''

''the bed was different and-''

''don't play with me, bro!''

chris hesitated, and then sighed. ''fine. maybe i kept waking up to make sure i didn't disturb her.''

matt's mouth dropped open. ''what? how do you even do that?''

''i don't really know.'' he shrugged. ''i guess my subconscious just knew i had to keep waking up.''

''that's...'' matt exhaled. ''damn, i didn't fucking expect that.''

''i'm fucking exhausted now.''

''you don't need to stay awake because of her. you know?''
