HAZEL.

Today was the day I moved in with Josh, Dan and Shelby. I couldn't be more excited- yet sad because it meant I was leaving Beau at our apartment; although he already arranged for Skye to stay. The girl he had been seeing; which they're now together and it's adorable; I've spoken to her a couple of times; she's really lovely.

I pick up my last box; which is filled with high school yearbooks, my brothers lost memories he gave me, and things I've kept which mean something to me. I carry it out down to the car and drop it in the boot; kind of in a happy way that I don't have to carry anymore boxes out of the damn apartment, except put them in the house we all bought and are sharing together. I couldn't be happier, I hear my phone ringing and picking it up-seeing that it's Josh.

"I just put the last box in my car!" I say, extremely excitedly. I hear laughter on the other end of the phone and then a sigh.

"Well, you can get your cute ass over here now, and help me!" he laughs,- Josh is at the house with Dan putting the furniture together while Shelby and I unpack the boxes and put all the stuff away; Shelby's currently at her parents house - where she's been living and collecting her boxes; the boys are doing their box collecting later today when Shelby and I decorate the house - Dan and Josh are just building the furniture as we'll start painting soon. It's incredibly exciting, and everyone's thrilled about this. Even the rest of the lads in you me at six.

"Hey, Connor and the lads are in town, want me to ask for their help? And you phone the other guys? Extra hands are needed!" I heard a sigh, as Josh is still unsure about Connor and I, no matter how many times I reassure him we're just close friends and nothing else; It's incredibly frustrating, but I'm sort of getting used to him doing this.

"Okay, I'll call them when I hang up babe," he laughs, as he knows I hate when he hangs up on me- yet I hate hanging up myself, I'm confusing sometimes, according to the boys. I laugh to myself, and we say our goodbyes; I let him hang up and start calling the boys in The Vamps. They all agree on helping out - as it'll be a pretty fun day. I jump in my car and start heading down to the new house; which is in Essex, it's a two hour drive from London but that's okay- as I won't have to make the millionth trip back this week! It's the final trip. I had said goodbye to Beau- although he's coming up tomorrow to come help out, as tonight we just plan to have a mattress or the couches out to sleep on.

As I pull into the driveway of the new house, I see Josh standing outside, drinking what seems to be a beer; I shake my head and laugh at him as I get out of my car.

"Jooooooosh, you slacker!" I yell, he looks up from his phone and comes walking over.

"We just finished building the furniture which is here!" he replies and kisses my forehead. I walk to the boot of my car and start picking up the boxes and walking them inside, Josh puts his beer on top of my car and follows suit.

Once nightfall fills the sky and the air, I breathe in deeply and smile at our surroundings. So far, the bedrooms have been set up- only the beds; which is totally fine and the living room was set up, the couch and TV. Stereotypical of the boys to do so, we had Matt and Max staying over as they couldn't be bothered driving home and they had drunk a few beers, so we did say they could crash on the couch and in the spare room, which ever they decided. I sat on one of the stools in the kitchen behind the bench and sipped on a cup of tea while reading through random tweets I had received - most of them were from Josh's fans saying how much they adored us and then there were a few who hated me, but hey what do you expect? I'm dating the lead singer of You Me At Six. I replied to a few of them, thanking them for the kind words and sending a few some selfies Josh and I had taken. It made me giggle at some of the things they said, soon enough more of Josh's fans caught on and I had heaps of people tweeting me, I sighed and looked up to see Josh standing in front of me.

"What's so funny huh?" he questioned raising an eyebrow at me, I showed him my phone and he took it pretending to me replying to some of the people. I then say him taking a selfie so I quickly photobombed it pulling a face and he uploaded it saying "Just hanging out with some smoking hot guy #nobiggy"

I rolled my eyes at Josh and snatched my phone from him- as it was now going nuts when they realised it was Josh who was replying. I put my cup in the sink and ushered Josh off to go to bed, I turned my phone off and left it on the bench to charge - as nothing was set up in the bedroom and knowing Josh he'd probably stand on it.

I went to the bedroom a few minutes after Josh, I knocked on the door letting him know it was me and slowly opened it, Josh had been behind the door waiting for me, I walked inside and Josh pushed me against the wall; putting his hands beside my head and kissing me passionately. I felt too tired to do this, but I was fine with showing Josh some affection; besides I did love him, and I believed he loved me too. I wrapped my arms around his torso, Josh pulled me closer and put his hands through my hair, he spun me around and slowly put me down onto the bed. We had still been kissing as he slowly and gently pulled off my shirt, I pulled Josh's shirt off too and then realised that this moment had been getting too intense for my liking - Josh put his hands on my breasts and that's when I felt like I had frozen in the moment.

The last time, I had gotten in a situation similar to this was with Sam- my ex and horrible boyfriend. He wouldn't let me go and believe I had dumped his sorry ass. So he lied to my parents saying we were getting married and how 'bad' Josh had treated me. I had run off to my bedroom in anger and tried to wrap my mind around what Sam was doing until he pounced on me claiming he was in love with me and tried to sexually abuse me. This sent alert signs throughout my body and I attempted calling Josh which did work but Sam found out. Josh came running in as he sat outside in his car waiting for me and my parents got all confused.

Josh had somehow noticed I froze in the moment and kept saying my name, repeatedly.

"Hazel?" I heard his voice lace with concern, I just lay there starring up at the ceiling.

"HAZEL?" I heard Josh yell and then I snapped out of it, I put my finger on his mouth to shush him and put the other through his hair.

"I........" I stuttered and looked at his brown eyes.

"I can't....sorry Josh" I bit my lip and noticed how much concern his eyes gave away

"Is everything okay? Did I rush? I'm sorry Hazel!" He slowly got off me and I sat up, grabbing my shirt and putting it back over my head and looking at him.

"It's just.....the last time you know" I stuttered and heard a knock at the door, I nodded at Josh to get it and got up heading to the bathroom to change into my pyjamas.

"Is everything okay in here?" I heard Matt speak in a sleepy voice. Josh must have woken him when he shouted.

"Yeah, everything's okay in here Matt, why's that?" I heard Josh ask and I peeped my head of the bathroom to see Josh had then realised he shouted, I walked out of the bathroom to stand next to Josh.

"Everything's okay Matt, I just had a moment and remembered something Sam did, you remember him? Yeah well, it's okay. I promise" I smiled at him and he nodded, he said goodnight and we shut the door. I looked at Josh who raised an eyebrow at me.

"Josh, I'm sorry" I looked down at the floor avoiding his gaze.

"You had every right to say no because you were uncomfortable, it's totally acceptable Hazel." He gave me a quick peck on the lips and we climbed into bed, Josh stripped down to his boxes and I then got tangled up in his legs and arms. Which made sleeping seem easier, considering I blanked out as soon as I hit the pillow.
