y/n POV
I roll over, starting to get annoyed
My sleep schedule had been better recently, I've been working on making it better.
However, today I had an energy drink, and now that it's 1AM, it's still keeping me energized.
I'm trying to stay off of my phone, I'm hopes that it won't keep me up all night.
I lay and stare at my wall, thoughts flowing through my head at a million miles per hour.
I continue my thoughts, when I hear my phone vibrate on my side table.
I grab it, and see a notification, realizing it was a text.
I smile at my lock screen, it being a picture of me and my best friend, Alex.
I quickly notice as well that the text, was from the one and only, Alex.
I open it, reading his message.
I smile at my phone and set it down, getting out from under my blankets and going to my closet.
Late night drives with Alex are always the best, we get to have the deepest talks, I get to hear him talk about streaming and doing what he loves, we're always cracking jokes, etc.
Alex has been my best friend for years, somehow we've just managed to never make a move on one another.
Does he even see me that way? I might never know. But do I see him that way? Absolutely.
I always have, it's simple. We get along, he makes me happy, we have practically the same personality. But even if he did feel the same, he doesn't have time for a relationship.
It will probably never work out for us.
I get dressed, putting on a pair of sweats and a top, with a hoodie over it
I hear my phone vibrate again, and I look, seeing it was a text from Alex
Alex: im outside hurry hurry hurry
Me: COMINGG
I grab my phone and some money just in case, and walk outside, locking the door behind me.
I see him in his car looking at me, so I skip and jump to his car, making silly faces and then open his door saying "what's up bitchhhhh"
"WHATS UPPP" he says back, smiling
I sit down and close the door, then turn to him and give him a hug, secretly inhaling his scent, which always makes me sad.
"Sorry if I woke you up when I texted you, I just really wanted to go for a drive with you" he says, looking ahead and turning his wheel, starting to drive
"awww Alex wanted to spend time with meeeeee" I joke, looking at him
"Uh yeah? You're my favorite driving buddy? Well actually you're my only driving buddy, but still" he says
I laugh, and look ahead at the road
"Wanna play music?" He says
"Sure" I say, grabbing the aux cord and plugging it into my phone
I immediately play Ridin Solo, by Jason Duerlo, and he starts laughing
"IM FEELIN LIKE A STAR, YOU CANT STOP MY SHINE" he yells, screaming along the lyrics to the song
I laugh, finding it hilarious his sudden burst of energy from playing this song
We both sing along to the song, jamming out and laughing, both just enjoying the positive vibes we have at the moment
"IM RIDIN SOLO. RIDIN SOLO SOLOOOO" we both finish off the song, ironically
"It's funny because we are literally doing the opposite of Ridin solo" he says and I laugh in response
I put on a few other songs we both enjoy, and he enters the freeway
"Woah dude the lights look so pretty" I say
"Yeah.. they do" he says, and looks at me
"what?" I ask, in confusion
"nothing, nothing" he says, looking down and laughing
I push his shoulder while laughing, "whatttttt why were you looking at meeeee" I say
"Ayy chilll I'm driving hereeee" he says, making me laugh
He exists off the freeway, going back the opposite direction, towards where we came from
"You hungry?" He asks me, looking over
"No im not but food honestly sounds good" I reply
"Good because I want Taco Bell" he says, as we pull into a Taco Bell drive thru
We start ordering, and once we pull up to the window, he pulls out his card
Quickly, I grab his card out of his hand and hide it in my pocket, reaching over and handing the person my card instead
"Why the fuck would you do that" he says
"You paid last time! I pay this time" I smile at him
He smiles back, and says "thank you. But next time ya not paying for shit. Give me my card back now" I smile and hand it to him, and we get our food and park in the parking lot.
We start eating, just having conversations and such.
"So why are you feeling stressed out?" I ask, taking a sip of my lemonade
"Mmm-" he hums, finishing his bite of his burrito
"I've been working so much. Of course, I'm a workaholic, I love being busy and having things to do constantly but it stresses me out sometimes too" he says
"Understandable" I reply before taking a bite of my food
"That's why I love night time drives like these, right now I'm super relaxed and I'm spending time with someone I love and like being around, so it's like I'm finally getting my stress reliever" he says
I smile, and reply "I love you too, flatty patty"
He frowns
"You ruined it, you ruined the moment" he starts
"Nooooooooo" I whine
"No, no you ruined the moment- we were HAVING A MOMENT, y/n" he says, getting in my face being fake dramatic
I laugh, and look into his eyes
"aRe We AboUt tO kiSs riGhT NoW" I joke, making him slightly choke on his food and laugh, me laughing as well
"No but seriously, I appreciate you coming on a drive with me a lot. I haven't seen you in like a week I missed you" he says
"Same here, if you need content or something I'm always down to do a stream with you or help you with editing or anything like that, just tell me to come over and I'll be there" I smile back again
"Thanks for always being here for me. It means a lot" he says
"I'm your best friend, it's my JOB. I'm supposed to be here for you" I reply
"Yeah... the best.. best friend...." he says
We have some more small talk, finishing up our food and heading back home, as it's already around 2:30 am.
We finally pull up to my house again, and I grab all of my stuff.
"Well, thanks for the drive it was super fun. Call me if you need anything" I say
"yea, I will. Good night" he says, giving me a hug, as I get out of his car and walk back inside.
I look out my window and see him drive off.
What is wrong with me? Why can't I just TELL him I have feelings for him?
why do I make it harder for myself...?
I go back to my room, falling asleep probably more sad than I was before; annoyed with myself.
