Ezekiel woke up with the worse headache and stretched his hand on his nightstand to look for the water bottle he always kept beside his bed. He reached it and drank half of it before rubbing his eyes. He turned his lamp on and saw Liam sleeping against the door. He had took a seat there to watch Zeke but had fell asleep.

Zeke got up but felt very dizzy and he knew the hangover was starting to kick in. He walked over to Liam and tapped his shoulder waking him up instantly.

"oh you're awake" Liam rubbed his eyes as he pushed himself off the ground.

"Why did you sit there when there's an extra bunk?" Ezekiel pointed.

"You wanted to go look for Mallory and when I finally got you to rest I decided to sit here so you wouldn't try to leave and I stayed to make sure you wouldn't choke if you puked. What time is it?" Liam asked as he turned his apple watch on to check.

"It's almost six a.m" Liam frowned.

"Thanks" Ezekiel said as he sat on the bed. "How did you know were to find me?" Ezekiel asked.

"Dimitri messaged me" Liam nodded. "You and him are friends now?" Ezekiel raised his brows.

"No but he messaged me through social media" Liam answered. He looked at his notifications and realized he had a misses call from Noelle. He texted her back to ask what she needed and she responded back that Mallory wouldn't stop crying and was asking constantly for another melatonin gummy.

Liam looked up at Ezekiel.

"What?" Ezekiel asked. "Can someone overdose on melatonin gummies?" Liam asked.

"I don't know aren't you the one studying medicine and all that" Ezekiel frowned.

"Yeah neuroscience not pharmacist, so when I took you out of the bar you said you went to the airport to see Mallory, did you speak to her?" Liam sat on the other bed.

Ezekiel nodded and looked down as he pressed his hands on his temples. "I told her I wouldn't intervine in her relationship" He said.

"Things happen for a reason Zeke, you probably did the right thing" Liam said. He was glad they wouldn't be having anymore problems.

"I don't think I can keep that promise though" Ezekiel answered. Liam sighed and wanted to roll his eyes but held it in.

"Listen Zeke if we're being honest you sounded like Dimitri but why don't you let Mallory decide who she really wants to be with. Without pressuring her" Liam looked at Ezekiel.

A month and a half later Mallory unlocked the door and stepped in. She set her bag aside and walked towards the living room but didn't find anyone.

Mallory walked towards the balcony where she found Devin smoking. He didn't hear her as he was to busy looking at the view as he smoked.

"Hey" Mallory whispered.

Devin jumped as he got scared and looked at Mallory. He quickly smiled as she walked towards him.

"You're back early" Devin smiled as he stretched his hand out to hug her by her waist. "Yeah I was going to fly back with Noelle in two days but I have a meeting with Mr Saab in about an hour" Mallory smiled. "Do you want accompany me? Obviously you won't be able to see the designs" She asked.

"Sure, what if we stop for some ice cream after, have you ate?" Devin looked at Mallory. "Yeah I stopped in new york for pizza but I'm going to get changed first and we can go" Mallory pecked his cheek and let go of him but he grabbed her hand and pulled her back towards him to give her a proper kiss on the lips, "I'm glad you're back home" he smiled before letting go of her so she could go.
