[Mia's POV]

"Alessio?" I opened my eyes slowly. I looked around and saw the others gathered around the furnace while the others are already asleep. I sat up quietly so that I wouldn't disturb him. Even though I didn't drink alcohol last night, I feel like I'm going to have a hangover anytime soon. My head is aching as hell and I feel nauseous. My throat burns and I don't know why. Oh gahd, so many things to worry about.

"Mia." I looked up to see someone hovering over me.

"Yo. Wassup.. Jake." I kinda hesitated mentioning his name. I don't know why though. Maybe because Alessio is here? But then, what's the connection?

"Can we talk? C'mon. Let's go out and grab some coffee." I checked my wristwatch. What the hell..

"But it's only 2 am." I yawned.

"I know, but still.. please?" He smiled.

"Okay, okay. Just lemme fix myself." I stood up quietly.

"No. You're beautiful just the way you are. Let's go." He grabbed my hand and lead me outside. What's with the hurry? Ugh.

We stopped at the nearest Starbucks. There were only a few people around which gave me a sigh of relief. I hate crowded places, that's why. We took a seat and stared at each other awkwardly.

"Uhh.."

"Uhm.."

"Order anything you want. My treat." Jake offered.

"Noooo. It's okay hahaha. I'll pay for my own drink." I refused.

"Aww. C'mon. Hahaha. You don't have to." He smiled at me once again. It made my heart flutter. Aw.

"But.."

"No but's. It's either I'll pay for your own drink or I'll pay for your own drink."

"What.." I was dumbfounded at what he said.

"Hahahaha, I know right." He got up and went to the counter.

"Argh, you got me there." I slapped myself. You're so stupid, Mia. Wait.. I HAVEN'T TAKEN MY ORDER YET. OR SHOULD I SAY, HAVE SAID TO JAKE WHAT MY ORDER IS.

"Hey." He came back with two drinks. One hot cappuccino and a caramel frappe.

"Which one is mine?"

"Any."

I chose the hot cappuccino so that my body system would wake up. Hahaha, whut.

"You shouldn't have paid for my own drink." I sipped.

"I know." He smirked.

"Then why do it?" I lean back.

"Because I love y-- paying for someone's orders, especially if that someone is my best friend." Ouch.

Deep inside, I'm like: #friendzoned

"Ohh. Haha." I chuckled awkwardly.

"What's with you and Alessio?" He looked at his drink intently. I remained quiet and so is he. Neither of us spoke for the next few minutes as if both of us were deep in our thoughts. The thoughts of what exactly is happening right now to our teenage lives.
