Should I tell them? Or.. maybe it's best if I don't

- flashback -

"Just go to sleep already." I groaned.

"But you-"

"No buts. I'm already sleepy okay? Just call again tomorrow." I said trying my best to keep my voice down so my brother, who is sleeping on his room which happens to be next to mine, won't wake up.

"Alright alright. But I'm calling you on 5 in the morning." Jack said.

"What are you gonna say anyways? If you need to say anything just say it now." I said before plopping down my bed.

"I just wanna talk to you. Is it so wrong?" Jack asked. Shoot again with the butterflies.

"Um. Yeah?" I answered a bit unsure.

"Why?" He asked then I heard a noise from the other line and then cursing. "Stupid table." I heard him mutter. I just let out a giggle.

"Are you okay back there?" I joked. "No." He simply answered. I just laughed again.

"Seriously though I have to sleep. We have school tomorrow and I don't wanna be late." I said.

It would've been fine if we were still staying at our house neat the school but we aren't since dad's already here we moved back to our house need the country side since they thought it would be better if dad would stay away from crowds for now. It's a thing about politics I think.

"Wait I got s-"

"Good night Jack." I said cutting him off. "Just call again I'm already sleepy" I added, fake yawning.

"Yeah. so.....I'm gonna call at 5, right?" He asked. I just stared at the ceiling, not answering his question. Ugh, why am I not so sleepy all of a sudden?

I looked at the screen of my phone to check the time. 11:36. And he's still not sleeping either. He hasn't even ended the call.

"Um Elsa are you there?" I heard him say. I just tried not to laugh.

I was about to speak but he spoke first. "Alright then, good night. And I love you." He said. I felt my cheeks heat up, also my ears and I felt the sudden urge to pinch myself for some odd reason.

"Uh, Elsa. Seriously are you still listening or are you already asleep?" Jack asked from the other line.

I sighed deeply before I could speak but again I get interrupted. "Well this is awkward. I'm basically talking to myself." He said probably thinking I am asleep already.

"Wait what time is it anyways? 11:44?! What?" He said. Talking to yourself. Nice. I guess I'm not the only one that does that.

"Should I set up an alarm or not? I have to wake up at 5 or maybe 4:50 something. Yeah I'll j-"

And by that he ended the call. Okay. Sleep time.

I closed my eyes and tried to get comfortable at my bed but then each position I make I never felt comfortable which is usual because I normally get sleepy at this position, and time.

I just checked my phone again for the time.

12:07. "This is gonna be a long night." I thought before hitting my face with a pillow.

-end of flashback-

"TV." I replied not looking up.

Maybe it's best if they don't know about me and Jack's "secret hangout". Yet.
