Brenna's POV

I can't fall asleep. How am I supposed to sleep on an uncomfortable mattress in the middle of a dark basement full of people I just met a few days ago? I am making it seem so much worse than it actually is but I'm in a house full of my favorite people in the world so that also makes it hard to sleep. I give up. I grab my phone and headphones and I head upstairs so I don't disturb anyone. I check YouTube but no one has uploaded. This is why there is always Netflix. I notice that its 5:00 AM. I roll my eyes and open up Netflix. I continue watching a random movie I started a month ago. The movie ends and I check the time. 6:30. I need to get some sleep. I quietly head over to the stairs. I tip-toe down the stairs but one step decides to squeak really loud. I thought this house was supposed to be new. Whatever, hopefully I didn't wake anyone up. When I get to the bottom of the steps, I see someone standing up.

"Holy shit you scared the crap out of me" Isaac says loudly.

"I think you just woke everyone up" I say.

"They don't look awake" he says.

"Yeah" I say. There is a long silence.

"So... this is the first conversation I've had with you" I say.

"Wait, do you even know who I am?" He asks.

"Um yeah" I say "I'm a fan"

"Oh that's cool" he says.

"Yeah, I'm going to sleep now so have fun doing whatever the heck you're doing" I say.

"Okay goodnight even though it's fucking six" he says.

I manage to make it through the maze of mattresses in the total darkness. I see that my blanket has been stolen. It is probably right next to me but it's too dark to tell. The sun should actually start coming up soon. I'm so sleep deprived that it hurts so it shouldn't matter if I have a blanket or not.

I wake up to Jordan shaking me. What the hell?

"Don't touch me" I say.

"Sorry" he says.

"Where is everyone" I ask looking around the empty basement.

"They all went to iHop" he says.

"Oh, why didn't you go with them?" I ask.

"I overslept" he says "we're the only ones here"

"Oh, when will they be back?"

"Not for a while" he says.

"What time is it?" I ask.

"8:30" he says.

"Well, I only got 2 hours of sleep thanks to you" I say.

"Again sorry" he says.

"Well is there anything to eat here?" I ask.

"I have a bunch of candy from the meetup" he says.

"That'll do" I say. We head upstairs and he shows me his stash of skittles. I grab a big bag and we sit down on the couch.

"I didn't know you and Will got back together" he says.

"We never broke up" I say.

"Oh... I guess I shouldn't have asked you out" he says.

"You what now?!" I say.

"Sorry" he says.

"DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND THAT I HAVE A BOYFRIEND?" I ask.
