After weeks beyond weeks of discussing if we should do this or not, we finally concluded. She's moving in. Anna is finally moving in with me and the guys. Finally, we won't have to see each other behind tiny screens. I'll have the real thing with me all to myself. Her lips, her eyes, her beautiful smile every time I compliment her, all for myself. The smile on my face suddenly fades when I remember about... Keith. He's been haunting my memory since the day he came knocking at my door. Whenever something good happens in my life, it immediately gets ruined when that little bitch floods my mind. I can't get rid of him and I hate it. Each day is one day closer to my 'appointment' with him which I am not enthusiastic about.
'I'm doing this to protect me and my loved ones.' I repeat to myself over and over again.
Ugh whatever, he's not going to ruin this special moment. Now that Anna is living going to live with me, hopefully, I can get my mind off Keith. Ever since the funeral, I forgot how much I missed going out. Now that I have a disguise to wear anytime I wanna go outside, I've been planning to ask Anna out on an official date. All our other dates have been at home. It'll be a great way to celebrate her moving in with me.

"We can go out to a fancy dinner, I know much you've been dying to go to Le Luxe Paradisiaque. After that we can go to the arcade and wherever else you wanna go." I say enthusiastically.
"Wow, babe that sounds amazing. But we're gonna have to save that for later today 'cause I still need to move all my stuff in here." She says.
"Alright. Are you sure you don't want me to help you?"
"I'm sure, my dad and brothers are already helping me. Anyways I have to go get the rest of my things. I'll be in a little while." She kisses my cheek and waves goodbye as she leaves out the door. I'm honestly kinda glad she said no because I'm still working on her welcoming present. I've hand-made her a bookshelf, but not one of those regular bookshelves, it's the ones that hang from the wall. I put my construction skills to work to cut it into the perfect shape, sandpapered the hell outta it, and applied a coat of outdoor penetrating wood sealant. All there's left to do now is paint it her favorite color, which is orange, and add another coat of outdoor penetration wood sealant.
It doesn't seem like much but since the bookshelf is pretty big, it's going to need a good 5 or 6 coats of paint to get the color to stick out. Which can take up to 2 hours since I need to wait for the paint to dry each time after applying a coat of paint. I would ask Ethan for help but he and Jeremy went to the store to buy items for Jayden's surprise birthday party which is in a week. So now I guess it's just up to me to finish this bookshelf. Unless...
Jayden's POV
Not sure why Grayson wanted me to help him paint this birdhouse; especially on a scorching hot day like today. He didn't tell me anything when I asked why he needed it done by today so I just let the question go to prevent more tension between us. I'm in the second living room of his house which is in the backside. Grayson told me to paint it here for some reason but I didn't bother asking this time.
