《Making Up》Chapter Eight

Thea

The following morning I wake up sweating.

Why am I so hot right now? I shift my body to my back and stretch, rubbing my eyes. That's when I realize a hot as hell body pressed up against me. And I mean temperature hot, but I guess he does have a nice body too.

Will groans next to me mumbling about his neck hurting from the weird angle he was sleeping in. The poor guy can barely fit in this twin bed on his own, let alone squished against me.

"Sorry, Will. You should've told me to leave last night or I could've slept on the ground."

"Don't be ridiculous, I could've slept in Dev's bed but I was too lazy to get up." He says, in his morning grumbly voice

I sit up and shrug "Whatever you say."

I yawn and stretch my arms, trying to get the moisture back in my eyes from falling asleep with my contacts in then take a quick look at the clock by his cluttered nightstand reading 10:45.

"Shit, I'm gonna be late for yoga at 11!" I say and hop out of his bed, scrambling to his bathroom to brush my teeth

"Since when have you done yoga?" I hear him ask from his bedroom curiously

I step back into his room while brushing my teeth at the same time.

"I got into yoga about a year ago but it's hard for me to find the time on weekdays to go so I only go on Saturdays and Sundays. Sometimes I do spin classes too. I kind of want to get certified to be a yoga instructor so that I can work in my free time after this year when my scholarship isn't as shaky."

Will sits up against the headboard raking his hand through his hair. His biceps scrunch up in the process showing his lean muscles. I've never actually had a little sleepover with a guy but seeing one wake up in the morning like this, I can definitely see the appeal and why women are always talking about this.

I quickly rinse my mouth and face using my hands as a manual fan not wanting to touch any of the towels hanging on the door. Men, who knows how long it's been since they've done laundry. This is one of the reasons why I really prefer people crashing at my place instead. I hate not being able to use my own stuff.

"Can I actually borrow this and return it later? I need to run to my room and change quickly for my yoga class." I ask tugging on his crewneck that I'm currently in

"I'm definitely not getting that back, but sure." Will says with a smirk

"What makes you say that?" I say with an arch of a brow and a hand on my hip

"Anytime a girl borrows a guy's sweatshirt they just take it. That's why I never let girls 'borrow them'" he says with finger quotes "but since it's you, I don't mind too much. I'll just steal it back next time I'm in your dorm."

"Fine, see ya!" I say while grabbing my clothes and rushing out of his room

------

"Alright ladies, lets get into the upward facing dog now."

"I can't believe you dragged me here, I could've gotten more dick this morning" Sienna whispers next to me in her pose

I give her a dirty look. "You told me to wake you up for this class before you went inside with Devon last night."

"Yeah, well I changed my mind. I'm too hungover to be here right now and some good dick would at least make me forget about this headache. Speaking of dick, did you and Will do anything last night since you stayed at his place." She eyes me curiously

"Stop pressing her for info Sisi. She'd tell us if she's comfortable." Stella, ever the thoughtful one says on my right side.

"Sorry, T. I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable about this stuff." The girls know about my inexperiences with the other sex and while they encourage me to embrace myself, they are also very understanding about having my own space and not bringing it up too much.

"It's okay Si, I don't mind. And no, we're just friends." I say while adjusting myself into the next position the instructor is telling us to get into.

"You can talk to us about anything TT. I know you sometimes like to hold in your feelings." Stella says

My heart warms at this. My friends are really amazing. They make me feel so soft even though my parents raised me in a somewhat cold setting, never giving me words of affection like this even though I sort of get it from my aunts. They kinda forced their love on me despite my attempts at avoiding their affection at first. Especially with how long Kari is.

"Thanks Stella. But theres really nothing going on between us. He's just a really great friend."

"Hmm, how do you feel about his manwhorish ways then?" Sienna asks ever so bluntly

"I don't really care about it to be honest. He doesn't really talk to me about it anyways. It would feel...weird to talk about sexual stuff with him. I don't know, we just don't have that kind of relationship dynamic."

After our yoga class we head to our campus smoothie place and find a booth to lounge in.

"How are your classes going?" I ask, since I'm always complaining about mine

"I have this huge self portrait due tomorrow which means I'm gonna be in the art studio for a while tonight." Sienna sighs. She's an amazing artist and can do a variety of things. Paint, draw, ceramics, sculpt. I wish I had her kind of talent.

"Ooo, can we see it when we get back to the room?" Stella asks

"Yes!"

"My classes are meh. I'm stressed out about this psych final that I have on Tuesday but I'll get through it." Stella tells us with a groan

This is one of the busiest times for students and you can tell just by the campus atmosphere. Just from this current spot I'm sitting in, I see two girls with their hair put up in messy buns with dark circles under their eyes. I would bet they're on their third cup of coffee despite it being only 12:30 in the afternoon.

Another guy I see- I'm pretty sure he's in my coding class looks like he's about ready to give up on whatever he's looking at on the screen. Probably our project that's due and I can relate to him with a passion.

"Let's have a study sesh tomorrow with Kari, Stells. She's been stressing out about her bio exam too." I offer

"Sounds good to me!"

Back to that coding project we go. Sigh.
