Finally, after fifteen minutes, I assume, we arrived at Peter's apartment complex.

When we reached his door, he fiddled for his key in his bag then unlocked the door. Before we had walked in, he yelled a name.

"May?" Peter said. Nobody answered.

He stepped aside for me to walk in first, then came in behind me and closed the door.

"Um.. just make yourself at home, I'll be right back." Peter said as he scrambled to his room.

Before I could answer, I heard a door close down the hall. I put my bag down next to the couch and sat down. I heard mumbling coming from the room Peter was in, I shrugged it off when I heard him coming from the hall.

"Okay.. so.. should we start?" Peter asked.

"Sure." I said with a small smile.

As he sat down next to me, a gust of cologne hit my face. Did he put cologne on? I'm not gonna lie, it smells good. We both then grabbed our books from our bags and started studying.

We spent the last couple hours of studying, laughing, and chatting.

"Do you might... want to watch a movie?" Peter said looking down at his notebook.

"Uh, yeah, why not? A break wouldn't hurt." I said.

"O-okay great. I'll make some popcorn and you find a movie." Peter said.

I closed my notebooks and put them into my bag. I then grab the remote that was on the coffee table in front of me. I started to search for a movie. I ended up choosing Star Wars because Peter had told me he liked it and so did I. I've seen the movies at least fifty times.

The microwave had gone off, meaning the popcorn was done. Peter grabbed a bowl and poured the popcorn into it, he then grabbed two waters from the fridge. After, he turned all the lights that were on off. The only light shinning was the TV. It was pretty dark outside but it had only been 6pm. I didn't have to be home until around 10pm (that's the curfew Gran gave me). Peter then handed me a water and sat down.

"Star Wars? Haven't you seen it a lot though?" Peter questioned.

"It won't hurt to watch it one more time. Plus it's the only thing I could find." I said. He then gave a laugh at my comment.

I leaned back on the couch trying to get comfy, as I started the movie. I look over to Peter who looks already comfy. I then shift more. I eventually lay my head down onto his shoulder and I'm finally comfortable. I feel him lightly flinch when I do it, but then I feel him lay his head on mine.

                             Peter's P.O.V

I was sitting on the couch, eating popcorn, when I noticed Y/N shuffling around. I glance over, but not too much where I would make eye contact and see her struggling to find a comfortable position.

After a few minutes, my eyes glued on the TV, I feel Y/N's head on my shoulder. I flinch at the contact of our bodies, but then realize she is now comfy. I then lay my head down on top of hers.

I know that I met her only yesterday, but we are getting closer everyday. This is just the beginning of something. A story. Our story.

                              Y/N's P.O.V

     After snacking on popcorn and watching the movie for a while, I start to feel sleepy. Not paying attention, I start to doze off.
