~Stella Ryder~

The car came to a stop and I jolted from my sleep, I fell asleep? So much happened at the ball tonight, and I just want forget about it. Besides Xavier's warmth when he held me close to him. I stepped out of the car, making my way to the front doors.

"Stella." I heard a firm voice call from behind me. Xavier.

"Not now Xavier." I waved my hand in the air as I kept walking forward, why is the door so far away?

"It's like she's drunk, she can't even walk in a straight line." Ryan could hardly finish his sentence because he was laughing so much. "Ryan leave her alone she's tired." Xavier smacked Ryan across the head.

I walked into the house, kicking my heels off my feet, I turned my head around to see Xavier picking my heels up with one hand and putting them to the side of the door. I was itching to get out of this dress. I didn't even notice Leo, Ian and Elijah were all in the living room. "What's up with her?" Ian pointed his head towards me as I walked up the stairs.

"She's drunk- OW OKAY ILL STOP." Ryan flew into the wall after Xavier punched him across the face.

I went straight for my room, I grabbed my towel, underwear, a black baggy shirt and some blue shorts. When I walked into the bathroom, I locked the door behind me. Stripping my clothes and throwing them into the laundry basket, I reached my hand into the shower and turned it on. While it was warming up I took my jewelry off and placed it on the side of the sink. I slowly got into the shower, letting the warm water hit my back. All I knew was that I needed to be quick before I fell asleep.

Once I finished my shower, I wrapped myself up in the towel and dried my body. I slipped on my underwear and then my pjs. Brushing out my hair, I walked into my room and grabbed my hair products and put them in my hair. Slipping on my fuzzy socks I walked out of my room and down the stairs. All the boys were sitting on the couches.

I quickly walked over and sat next to Xavier, who had his eyes on me the whole time. "How are you feeling?" Xavier looked down at me while I sunk into the couch. I lifted my legs up to my chest. "Extremely tired but i'm alright." I gave him a small smile.

The boys were all talking and laughing but I could hardly keep up with them.

"I wonder why they came and attacked us today." Ian took a sip from his beer.

"What did you expect, we knew they would at least give us a piece of their mind." Elijah closed his eyes.

"Okay but the one fucking time I didn't go, I missed all the fucking fun." Leo threw his hands in the air.

~Xavier Hernandez~

Leo threw his hands in the air. "Did you not beg me for five fucking hours so you wouldn't come?" I threw him a look.

"Yes- but that's not the point right now. But we have to figure out what they want at some point, you can't just keep pushing it back Xavier." Leo grabbed Ian's beer.

"You bitch I wasn't done with that!" Ian crossed his arms.

I chuckled while lifting my beer to my lips, I felt something on my arm, I looked down to see Stella now leaning on my arm, asleep.

"Is the guy in the basement?" Elijah yawned, looking at Ryan who just came upstairs, shutting the door behind him.

"Yeah he is, Xavier you are going to have to deal with him tomorrow." Ryan came around the couch, patting my shoulder.

I lifted up my arm and wrapped it around her, moving my arm underneath her leg. She moves her body closer to mine. Ian looks at me and cracks a smile. "Oh fuck off man." I rolled my eyes at him.
