It is friday night and i am sitting on my bed snapping the nach groupchat when i get a snap from quinton,

i smile when i received his snap and ran to my mirror to send him a mirror pic

we kept snapping each other until 1 am because i got tired and fell asleep.

———————— ⏭ time skip ⏭ ———————
i woke up and checked my clock, it was 9 am so i got up and got dressed into this

I want starbucks so i ask my brother josh (josh richards) to drop me off at Starbucks and of course he complained about it since he was playing COD but at least i got my iced coffee.

——————————-time skip—————————

it is 4 pm and quinton is supposed to be here at 5 so i shower, do my hair and makeup then change into my clothes. By the time i was done, i heard a doorbell and i ran downstairs to get the door.

quinton: hey

cynthia: hey, come in

josh: who's he?

cynthia: his name is quinton and it's none of your business

josh: it is my business if he's hanging around my younger sister (josh is 18)

quinton: chill dude, i'm only here so we can work on a project together

josh: whatever

i roll my eyes and tell quinton to follow me upstairs

josh: LEAVE YOUR DOOR OPEN!!!

quinton: *giggles*

cynthia: oh my god

we walk into my room and quinton looks around

cynthia: ignore the mess i didn't want to clean

quinton: if you think this is a mess, you should see my room

we sit down at my desk and i pull out the poster board.

quinton: so where do we get started?

cynthia: since we've only done half of the first question let's start from where we left off

quinton: ok

we worked on the project for 30 minutes and i was done the first question so i look up at q and he is already staring at me

cynthia: what? *giggle*

quinton: nothing
he looked down and laughs

cynthia: is there something on my face

quinton: no, i was just looking at you

cynthia: ok WeIrdO

quinton: haha i'm not *he pushes my arm a bit*

cynthia: i'm hungry, are you hungry

quinton: i could use some food right now

cynthia & quinton: pizza?

cynthia: o-

quinton: i guess we're having pizza

i run out the room and hold on to the railing

cynthia: JOSH CAN YOU ORDER PIZZA

josh: 20 BUCKS

cynthia: IM NOT PAYING

josh: FINE BUT IM EATING SOME TOO

cynthia: *giggle*

i turn around and quinton is standing right behind me so i almost trip on him, i raise my arms out of instinct and touch his chest

cynthia: oops sorry

quinton: it's ok

we walk back in the room and spend more time on homework until i get distracted and go on my phone

quinton: is your boyfriend texting you?

cynthia: oh uhh no i'm single

Quintons POV:

i had a feeling she was single but i still said what i said just to make sure

Cynthias POV:

i don't know why but that was super awkward so i asked him if he was single to break the ice

cynthia: umm, are you, you know single?

quinton: wouldn't you like to know

cynthia: ...

quinton: i'm just playing with you, i am single

it got kind of quiet after that but luckily josh called us down since the pizza was here.
quinton and i run down the stairs laughing and into the kitchen, josh was standing there with a slice of pizza in his hand. he had no emotion so i couldn't tell if he was mad or just zoned out

cynthia: josh?

josh: yeah?

cynthia: why are you so quiet?

josh: i'm trying to remember where i know quinton from

quinton: uhhh

josh: oh right! are you by any chance related to jaden hossler?

quinton: yeah actually, he is my cousin

josh: no wayyyyy!!! jaden told me he knew one of the guys that were added to sway but i totally forgot that he mentioned your name until i saw you and saw how similar you two look alike

quinton: *looks down and giggles*

💭 i love when he does that cause its so cute💭

cynthia: mads told me that jaden told her that quinton was added to sway but she never mentioned them being cousins

quinton: you were talking about me *smiles*

cynthia: i- um- yeah because we were just talking about how there is a new kid in my class and she was wondering who it was

josh: yo lemme get your snap

cynthia: actually we were just going to grab the pizza and head upstairs, i grab q's hand and grab the pizza with the other and walk towards the staircase

quinton: it's qgriggs
he says while we are walking

when we reach my room, i look down and realize i'm holding quintons hand, i quickly jerk it off and i walk towards my bed. quinton stands beside my bed

cynthia: sit down i don't bite

quinton: i don't mind biting ;)

cynthia: oh my

josh: QUINTON I CAN HEAR YOU

quinton: oops 😬

i laugh and get up and to close the door

josh: WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT THE DOOR

cynthia: to close it?

quinton laughs, and i shut the door, it gets really quiet and i walk towards the bed and grab a slice of pizza

cynthia: so, since your in sway, do you live there? because josh alternates living here and there

quinton: yeah i live there and my parents live in North Carolina but the only reason they even let me live here is because they trust jaden

cynthia: why wouldn't they trust you?

quinton: well i've done some... questionable things in the past

cynthia: like what

quinton: ...

cynthia: sorry i don't mean to pry, i'm just curious, you don't have to ans-

quinton: no it's fine, basically, i...
