School was out.

I hadn't seen Tommy at all today. He was supposed to sit with me at lunch, but he was with Tubbo, so I didn't intrude.

I just minded my own buisnes. Plus, now that I knew he liked me...I didn't have much to worry about.

It was Thursday and it'd been 4 days since I'd properly talked to Ranboo. I'd seen him in Science and homeroom, but we didn't talk much.

Yeah....I was trying to distance myself. I think that was obvious, but what was confusing was how he felt about it.

I kept catching him staring at me all week. During Science, homeroom, lunch, on the bus, in the halls. Sometime he looks away like it's nothing and other times he smiles or waves.

As much as I'd love to talk to him, I want to focus more on me and Tubbo.

Sure....I guess I sorta miss him, but that's alright. I don't need him to be all up on me all the time.

Right now I was in class, waiting for the bell to ring and signal lunch time.

Ranboo had a game today. Too bad it wasn't a home game though. It was an away game at some other random high school. I saw the flyers that showed where, but I wasn't too interested.

So...I probably wasn't gonna go.

I sat in class watching the clock go 'tick tock'. I was extremely bored, and ready for lunch already.

.....Tommy.

I really wanted to invite Tommy to tag along and come to my game, but I wasn't sure I should. Hed been hanging with Tubbo a lot lately and I figured he wanted a little space to repair that relationship. Which I totally get, and understand, but-......I miss him.

I want to sit with him on the bus, walk him to class, have lunch with him, and spend the night together, but-....I'm not sure about how he feels.

I'm always staring....I just can't help myself. Sometimes he catches me and he always blushes, which is cute. But, that doesn't really confirm he misses me too.

I want him to miss me......and I'd love to call or text him, but....the other day when I checked my contacts, I realized I never got his number. Which is odd, seeing as how we were uhm- pretty close.

Anyways! I wanted to talk to him today at lunch, but I wasn't sure how to go about it.

I just hope....he still likes me, cause I know I still like him.

I sighed and finally the bell rung. I smiled to myself and hoped out of my seat. I picked up my very few things and hurried to my locker. I locked my stuff up and went to the cafeteria where I was swarmed by a bunch of people. I looked around for a hoard of girls, but I didn't see them.

I was usually swarmed by all genders, for I was a football player and everyone knew I was bisexual. Though Tommy was always followed by a hoard of girls, because he wasn't very open and most assumed he was straight. So, girls swarmed him since he was pretty fine.

I walked over to my usual table and saw Purpled and my teammates. I sat down on the table and began chit chatting.

Guess I can talk to Tommy later.

I locked up my things in my locker and waited there for Tubbo.

A minute later he came by his locker and locked up his own things. I went over to him, "Hey Tubs!"

"Hi Tommy." He smiled then held up a lunch bag, "My mum packed me lunch today. And she said she packed extra for the both of us."

I smiled, "Just like kindergarten."

"Just like kindergarten." He chuckled, "Now c'mon. Let's go sit on the bleachers, before girls see you."

I laughed, "Alright."

We walked out of the building and went to the bleachers. We sat down and began eating. It was nice to enjoy the company of just Tubbo again.

These past few days have been good.

"Y'know, there's a football game after school today." Tubbo said.

I nodded, "Yeah I know, why?"

He shrugged, "I dunno, just thought you might wanna go."

I shook my head, "No I'm good. I have...uh- homework to catch up on."

"Though I'm certain you do, I don't think your gonna go home and just do homework." Tubbo laughed.

I laughed along, "Yeah, I've got quite the load to finish, but....I'm not sure it'll get done very soon."

Tubbo shook his head, "I always tell you."

I sighed, "Oh well, I'll be turning in all the late work before the quarter ends, I guess."

He rolled his eyes, "Classic Tommy."

"What can I say," I shrugged, "I am who I am."

Tubbo laughed, "Yeah well, since your not really doing anything....I think you should go."

"Go where?" I asked.

"The football game dummy." He shook his head.

I sighed, "I don't really want to."

"Why not?.....Ranboo will be playing. Don't you wanna see him?...You've been....distant lately." He said.

I blushed thinking of Ranboo, "Well- there's other things I could do, so....no."

He frowned, "Tommy, I think you should talk to him. I know I used to like him....and feelings haven't completely faded, but they're wearing off. And I don't want to be the reason you shy away. So, go for it...you know he likes you."

I shrugged, "Do I?.....He hasn't made any effort to talk to me either..."

"He's respecting your space." Tubbo said.

I thought about it, "I'll think about it."

"Good." He smiled.

"Will you come with?" I asked.

"And possibly run into Ranboo? No thanks, I'm good." Tubbo awkwardly laughed.

I sighed, "Mkay..."

I'd have to give it some thought....

Everything.

If I went.....would he even care?

And is it really right to try and go out with my best friends old crush?

Before I just...hooked up with him and messed around.

Do I really want to try....more?
