    "Will you be my friend?"

    There was a school trip and a three hour long bus ride. You had to sit next to the school's rugby star, gabe since that was the only seat left. Sitting in your seat, you attempted to make yourself as small as possible.

    It was easy considering how massive he was, which was why no one sat next to him. His headphones were in, and you watched him from the corner of your eye. He took out a huge sandwich, and as the smell reached your nose, your stomach rumbled noisily.

    Your cheeks heated, but you were thankful he couldn't hear you. Attempting to relax, you fell asleep quickly.

    When you woke up you let a peaceful sigh escape you.

    All of a sudden you gasped when you realised your head was on his shoulder. Attempting to pull away, you realised he was also asleep, with an arm wrapped around your waist.

    Pulling yourself out of his hold, you inhaled when you saw what he had done. On the tray in front of you was his sandwich, along with a note. "I wish you would take care of yourself. You should never be hungry, would you like to be my friend?" There was two boxes beneath, one with a yes and one with a no. Smiling slightly, you ticked the yes, and out of the corner of your eye saw his mouth lift into the biggest grin ever.
