Theo's POV
Stephanie? Shit, this isn't going to end well
"Who's Stephanie,"Grace asks as we walk upstairs
"Well, she's a really good friend of Josh's. But she was his first and last ex and -"
"Oh shit"
This is about to be a long long night
--------------------------------------------------------------
Bea's POV
"Hi Steph" I walk up and give her a hug.
"Hey girl, we haven't talked in ages"
Stephanie is one of my oldest friends, we always used to be close when we did athletics together. She was in a relationship with one of Ryan's friends, so we all went out together. I mean-that was until he broke her heart, but we stayed friends.
"Why are you here?" No one else knew her besides Ryan, did they?
"Oh, Josh invited me. I think I'm going to have an eventful night."
Fuck, you have to be kidding me. Wait it's not like I care, it's just- Josh is so shitty. Stephanie deserves better. But, why would Josh possibly want anything to do with Stephanie unless-
"Oh, I see you guys have met Steph" He kisses her, "We used to date. She was and always will be the only one to have my heart"
"Aww. You guys are so cuute." Grace- Grace needs to shut up.
So cute? I mean, yeah she's pretty. But they used to date? How did I not know about this...
"Well, I know everyone's tired, so I guess we all should go back to our rooms. But thanks for coming down and meeting Steph"
Everyone's tired? Bullshit. I know he's probably going to stay up all night fucking her or something.
But I don't care, I have my own man.
I'm happy, I don't like Josh anymore. Right?

Josh's POV
-5.30am
I can't sleep.
I can't dream.
I can't do anything without thinking about Bea, I thought if I invited Stephanie it would help me get over her. I even helped her take pictures for Instagram.
But it just made me miss her more.
I can't deny these feelings anymore.
I open my phone. I begin to type.
"Bea, r u up?"
"Yh, wbu"
"Duh, then I wouldn't be texting you."
"What do you want"
I type "you" then delete the messgae. Let's not be too forward.
"to talk"
"Can this wait till the morning"
"Why, you're not doing anything rn"
"I'm kinda busy w Ryan, sry"
Fuck.
I'm so embarrased. I should be busy with Stephanie, but my feelings always get in the way.
Steph, looks over at me.
"What you doing?"
"Nothing" I lean closer, "But I know what we should be doing."
And that's it. The start of a relationship.
