We drove back to L.A. two days later, blasting music and stopping every now and then to switch out or see the sights.

I had just gotten to my building from Dom's apartment so he could grab clothes when it started to pour. We exchange excited looks and get out of the car. He runs around the car and picks me up, spinning in the rain. I laugh and hug him as he sets me back down.

I see Amèlie and Chessa standing on the balcony and wave at them. Dom and I. start dancing on the sidewalk, not caring that we were getting soaked.

"Are you two gonna come up or are you going to stay down there getting soaked and catch a cold?" Amèlie yells, making us laugh. We grab our stuff and make our way into the building.

We decided to take the stairs and race up them. I get there first and turn just in time for him to run into me.

"Oh!" He says, dropping his bag and catching me. I laugh as he helps me stand and grab his bags.

We walk down the hall and I start shivering slightly. I open the door and smile at Amèlie and Chessa who were talking in the living room.

"Did you guys have a good trip?" Amèlie asks and I nod.

"Your parents say hi, by the way." Amèlie and Amelia's parents had stopped by my mom's place for dinner one of the nights Dom and I were with her. I hear the shower stop and frown slightly.

"Who's in the shower?"

"Amelia," Chessa says as if it were obvious. I look up and Amèlie nods.

I drop my bag and run down to the bathroom. I let myself in and see Amelia getting out of the shower.

"Amelia!"

"Isa!" We say at the same time before hugging each other.

"Wait, why are you wet?" She asks as we pull back.

"It's pouring and Dom and I danced in the rain for a bit. Oh and your parents say hi."

"Hi Dominic!" Amelia calls through the door.

"Hi Amelia." I hear him call back as she changes.

"How's college?"

"It'll be so much better when you come. When are you coming?"

"Like the day after our last show in L.A. in January, so I'll be a little late to the second semester." She nods and we walk out, updating each other on our lives. I see Dom in my room and wave him over.

"You guys kind of met, but not really." I say as they wave at each other. I sneeze as they hug.

"Bless you!" Everyone says at the same time, making me laugh.

"How long are you guys here for?" Amelia asks during dinner. "

By here do you mean in L.A. or like the apartment? Cause we were gonna spend a few days at his apartment before we leave for Tokyo." I ask before I take a sip of my water.

"Both?" I look at Dom who shrugs.

"I dunno. I think we're just gonna play by ear." I finally say, looking over at her. She nods and turns back to her food. "How long are you here?"

"The rest of this week and the first half of next week." She says after a second. I nod and we keep eating.

The next morning I wake up and feel like shit. Dom slips back into bed and pulls me closer. I groan quietly at the movement.

"You okay?" Dom asks quietly and I shake my head slightly.

He rubs my back as there's a knock at the door. I hear the door open and hide my face in his chest, the light hurting my head.
