After dropping me off back at the dorms, Zion had asked me if I wanted to hang out at his sometime next week.

Now it's next week, and I have no idea what he has planned for us. We have talked over the phone the past couple days, but it's all been the usual chat with him not bringing it up besides the date and time. Thursday. 7PM. And he would be picking me up.

It's Wednesday night and I've just got out of the shower. Belle and Olivia are already asleep because they were both out on the beach for the day. I couldn't go because I had work, I needed to catch up on and multiple classes to attend.

I open the door slowly, making sure it doesn't creek. I grab my clothes that I forgot and left on the draws beside the bathroom before shutting the door again.

I slip on one of my new sets I got while shopping with Zion. A dark green halter top bra with a seamless thong to match. I slip on a pair of fluffy black shorts and then I'm walking out the door and heading straight to my bed.

I'm walking through the halls on campus to get to my next

class when I hear someone call my name. When I look in the direction it came from, I see Lewis. And three other guys. I don't know two of them, but I do know one. I don't really know them, not anymore anyways. I recognise them. And it's Ben.

I ignore him as he calls my name again, but he obviously doesn't get my hint because when I walk past him to get to my lecture class, he pulls me aside by my sleeve.

"What the fuck is your problem?" I practically shout at him while pushing him off me. He stumbles back a few steps before regaining his footing. He wipes his hair from his face with a smirk on his lips.

"Someone's in a mood..." He laughs, looking around at the others. I shake my head with my own laugh. Except it isn't one to match his. It's for opposite reasons.

"Why did you drag me aside?"

"Because your grandpa..." He looks around as if he needs his friends' laughs to continue on with his sentence. "Owes Ben an apology." His eyes flick to who I'm guessing is Ben behind me before coming back to me.

"What for?" I ask. The only one who owes an apology is Ben.

"He broke his nose and almost killed him?!" Lewis says it like it's important. But it's not.

I turn around so I'm facing the topic of this conversation and stare him straight in the eyes, ignoring the bandages taped around his nose. "You deserved every single second of it. Neither me or Zion regret it, and we don't feel a single bit sorry for you."

He blinks at me a couple times and begins to open his mouth, but I walk away before he can say anything back. I think I heard enough from him and his sad little friends.

"You better be walking off to get that guy!" Lewis calls towards me.

"If I do, he will end up finishing the job!" I continue walking till I'm sitting in the safe place of the lecture room sitting in my seat. 

I don't end up hearing from them after or seeing them in the halls like I expected.

When I get back to the dorm, It's about 5PM.

I push open the door to find no one in there. Both Olivia and Belle must be out.

I go straight to my draws and pull out a lingerie set. Full white lace.

I pick out some sweats and a jumper before heading into the shower. I place my clothes onto the countertop and strip down from what I'm currently wearing. I run the water for a couple minutes while I use a makeup wipe to take my makeup off.

Once the waters warm, I climb in.

I take a quick shower. Washing my hair and body as well as shaving.

Once I'm finished, I climb out and wrap the towel around my body.

I brush my hair through and then put it into two French braids. I dry myself off before slipping into my clothes.

By the time I'm finished and ready, it's around the time Zion said he was going to pick me up.

I run downstairs and wait in the lobby until I see his car.

                                        ❀❀❀

"How was your day?" Zion asks me the question as soon as I step foot in his car.

The window is already rolled down and the radio is playing quietly in the background.

"It was okay." I sigh, leaning my head back against the headrest and closing my eyes.

"Something tells me you're lying." He begins to drive out of the car park without turning the radio up. He wants to talk.

"I am. But I don't want to talk about it right now." I murmur.

Zion doesn't say anything else and just continues the drive to his apartment.

As soon as I walk through the door, I head straight for the couch. Harley chases after me and starts licking my hand as I flop onto the sofa.

"What are we doing tonight?" I ask, hearing the small clang of his keys hitting the kitchen countertop.

The next second he's coming to sit by my legs. He lifts them up and takes the seat before lowering them back down onto his lap.

"A movie night. That's what I had planned." His hand rests against my lower leg, his thumb doing small circles against my skin.

"What movies?" I raise my eyebrow at him as I open my eyes again.

"You get to choose." He smiles.

"Yay!" I clap my hands together and begin to rise to grab the remote.

"But..." He takes the remote off the coffee table before I can even get it and holds it in a tight grip by my feet. "I want to know what put you in a shitty mood."

I deflate back down onto the sofa. "It was just Lewis and Ben." I sigh.

His hand stops moving on my leg for a second, but he continues after a short thought.

"What did they do?" He asks, watching me as I speak.

"Lewis pulled me aside even after I ignored him and then he told me that you owe Ben an apology because apparently you broke his nose or something?" I shrug. "Anyways, I turned around to face Ben and told him straight up that he deserved every second of it and walked off. Lewis called after me saying 'I hope you're walking away to get the guy.'" I mimic Lewis's voice while saying it and a smile breaks out onto Zion's face. "I shouted back that if I did then you would finish the job."

"So, I don't need to go back and do anything?" He asks me, passing me the remote.

"No. You don't." I say and Zion gives my leg a small pat before continuing the movements he was doing before.

I look through the movie options and find 'Love and Gelato'. I don't think Zion will enjoy it, but he gave me the choice to choose and so I have.

                                        ❀❀❀

"Can we get pizza?" I question, turning to look at Zion as he now strokes Harley.

"If you want. I was going to cook something, but I don't mind pizza." He shrugs and pulls out his phone. He makes the order before we carry on watching the movie.
