I sit right next to his feet on the edge of his bed while I was waiting for the dreadful five minutes to end. He was sitting down while resting his back on the headboard and had his phone on his hand. Tracy had finally given it to him maybe. He didn't even look at me or made any form of way to start a conversation. Hell, why would be even start a conversation with me?

I sigh heavily, making him notice that I was getting bored in here. I think my saliva has ran dry cos we're both so quiet.

"Just so you know I need that shirt back by Friday." I hear him, talking. Finally.

It worked. He talked.

I gazed at him over my shoulder. "I'll dry wash it. Don't worry."

He grunts. "Four more minutes."

As if he's the only one in agony here. There was that awkward pause in between us again. I just sat there and he just sat there on the bed. Then all of a sudden I notice him standing up on his feet, "Thanks for subbing for my sister by the way."

"Yeah. No prob." I said.

I gazed at him. He was just standing right next to his bed and was looking at me. God he's hot. "And I didn't know you know how to say thank you."

"Yeah learned it in pre-school actually." He answers sarcastically.

"Wow. How informative of you." I rolled my eyes at him then glanced at my watch.

I sigh. "Can we do something fun in your room for four minutes?"

He scratched his nape. "Nope."

I stood up and stared at him staring at me.

"Let's play 20 questions." I snapped.

"Not a good idea. I don't like answering questions." He groaned.

"Come on it's gonna be fun!"

"No." He said firmly.

I sighed.

"It's just for four minutes. Come on, it's boring here." I urged him.

"I told--"

"I promise I won't tell anyone your answers. Well, I don't know anyone here yet but I promise I'll keep it." I pull my right hand up beside me.
