I stirred awake the next morning opening my eyes as I felt an arm draped over me. I looked down and then over my shoulder to see J still sleeping peacefully, memory of last night coming to my head. I smiled to myself feeling giddy as I slowly got out of bed making sure not to wake him.

I walked out of the room making my way into the kitchen, I looked over to see Pope standing in front of the counter staring at the espresso machine making me chuckle as I walked all the way in.

"Are you hoping it turns out with your powers?" I said making him roll his eyes, I look around seeing no Smurf or breakfast, "Where's Smurf?"

"I don't know. I just want coffee."

"Fucked if I know." I said walking over to the fridge grabbing myself an apple before going over to Pope, "Happy birthday."

"Don't remind me." He grunts as he throws me a look and I chuckled kissing his cheek. I bite into my apple as I walked back into my room, grabbing clothes as I walked out leaving J to sleep more.

I get to the shower turning it on and heading in, feeling the water fall all over my body. I didn't take too long as I got out wrapping the towel around my body, wiping down the condensation off the mirror staring at my reflection.

It was the first time in a while I had gotten a good nights rest, it usually only happened when I slept with Deran. I frowned at myself for thinking that, shaking my head as I dried my body then putting on my clothes.

I put on under garments a matching set of white lacey briefs and a bra that had a gem in the middle. I put on my short black skirt that had a mini slit for my leg, I had a long sleeve button up crop top, I held off on putting it on as I dried my hair first.

I had looked at my neck in the mirror that still had the bandage intact, I looked down to my arm seeing it was okay enough to not have a bandage. I hear the door open making me turn to see it was J, who's mouth drops slack staring before turning away.

"Shit, I'm sorry." J says closing the door again making me chuckle as I finished drying my hair. I put on my shirt as I opened the door seeing J standing there, turning to look at me walk out, "I should've knocked."

"It's not any different to seeing me in a bikini." I said raising an eyebrow and he goes to say something but nothing comes out making me chuckle, "See you later."

I walked away from him and going back to my room, finding my sneakers putting them on along with the rest of my jewellery. I picked up my phone sliding it into my pocket as I walked out of the room then towards Deran's. I opened up his door to see he was still sleeping making me walk over shaking him.

"D, wake up." I said making him groan slapping my hand away, I rolled my eyes, "Deran, come on."

"What?" He says burying his face into his pillow not bothering to open his eyes.

"Can I take the Scout? I don't have my car."

"Yeah whatever."

"Thank you, I'll bring you back something." I said kissing his cheek as I grabbed the keys off his dresser. I walked out of the house putting on my sunglasses as I get into the Scout, bringing it to life.

I decided to just drive around then stopping off at an art supply store to grab more paint. I walked in looking at all the different materials as I walked around the store. I had only been in there for a few minutes before my phone went off, I pulled it out seeing it was from Baz.

CUTBACK

"Shit." I said dropping what I had in my hands before rushing out of the store and then hopping into the car. I got in and started driving down the roads not caring about the speed limit right now. I got home skidding to a stop in the driveway as the boys all walked out of the house.
