Chapter 8:

"Cue the crying." I shook my head when a sad scene came on the television. Although Pippa and I have watched the notebook at least fifteen times, it was always the same reaction every time. Me handing a tissue box to Pippa who was sobbing. She was a very emotional person if you couldn't tell. I even knew what parts she cried at. This was how close we were. 

Pippa, who was right next to me, grabbed a tissue to wipe away her tears. 

We were both dressed in our pajamas. Mine were polka dotted flannel pajama pants with a t-shirt two sizes too big with my brother's face plastered on the front. It was his birthday gift to me. Pippa had rainbow stripes on her pajama pants and with it, she wore a shirt with a unicorn on it. I swear we're not children. 

"Movie number two down." Pippa said as the movie ended. We watched the Titanic before that and even more tissues were used during that one. None from me, but about twenty from Pippa. I used to cry during these movies, but a lot of emotion was sucked out of me the past few years. Crying wasn't something that I did a lot anymore. 

"Okay, what's next?" I asked Pippa who had the remaining eight movies in her hands. She shook her head as she saw a few, before she yelled "Aha!" and pulled one from the bunch. 

"What are we watching?"

"Love Actually." Pippa smirked as she placed the other seven movies on the coffee table. She removed her blanket from her body to get up and insert the disc into the DVD player. 

"What's up with all these lovey dovey movies Pippa? My love life is complicated, why don't they make a movie out of mine?" I rolled my eyes. I bet the remaining movies Pippa brought had to do with romance too. 

"They should. I would go watch it! Oh look it's starting." Pippa grinned and pointed at the televison. I chuckled as I watched Pippa hug her knees while rocking back and forth. She loved movie nights more than anything. Things like these never got old and I was glad our tradition was starting once more.

It was now five in the morning and we've watched two more movies after Love Actually. 

As I predicted they were both lovey dovey movies. The Last Song and Friends with Benefits. There were five more movies that Pippa brought, but I don't think either of us were up for it. We haven't even eaten dinner yet because we were watching movies. All we had was popcorn and popcorn and a bit more popcorn. 

"I don't think we should watch anymore tonight." Pippa groaned as her head lolled back. She cracked her neck and sighed. 

"I agree." I rubbed my eyes and wished for a coffee. I. Need. Caffine. "You can take the guest bedroom. It's across the hall from mine." I said and pointed towards the hallway. 

Pippa nodded her head and without a word, she disappeared. I heard a door click close before I started to clean up our popcorn bowl. I placed it into the sink and then headed to my bedroom. 

Even through a closed door, I could hear Pippa's snores. She snored so loudly. I wonder how Zayn stands it. I hope you knew that I was just kidding. Pippa and Zayn were perfect together even if they had a rocky relationship before. 

I was too tired to brush my teeth, many people would think that was nasty, but I was tired. Give me a break. I collapsed on top of my bed and fell asleep without even getting underneath my covers.

"WE HAVE TO RESUME MOVIE NIGHT ROSIE!" Pippa screeched. What the heck? I opened my eyes and moaned. I rolled over until my face was face down into my pillow. I then felt hands shaking me. This girl would stop at nothing
