It was now Friday and Milan didn't have anything to do, she had a Spanish assignment that she had to turn in online and after that she was free for the day. Milan slipped out of the bed and checked her phone, it was 10:30 A.M.

Milan noticed she had a message from Sean and smiled. He sent a good morning text. She replied to his message and stood from her twin sized bed.

She spread out her arms and did a stretch, the bed felt like a king to her and she slept well. Milan thanked herself for buying a comfortable mattress topper.

Milan walked out of her room to see that Paris was now walking out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel. The bathroom was located right in front of her room.

"Good morning." Milan said.

"Good morning." Paris smiled as she walked back to her room.

Paris hadn't really been talking to her since she confronted her about Sean yesterday.

Flashback.

Milan was on cloud nine after work. Usually she'd be tired and ready to get in the bed. Today was different, the lunch with Sean had her floating for the rest of the day.

They talked, and it was easy for Milan to open up to him. Usually she was shy and reserved but Sean made her comfortable.

Milan walked to her suite's door and stuck her key into the lock, she made her way inside of her room letting the door shut behind her.

Milan walked out of the kitchen area and to the commons area and plopped onto the couch. Her bag was still in her hand as she thought back to her encounters with Sean. Milan soon closed her eyes.

"Milan.." Paris was now standing on the side of the couch with her arms crossed. When she didn't get a response she called her name again, "Milan."

Milan jumped and opened her eyes. She looked up at Paris with a small smile.

She was honestly surprised that Paris had been speaking to her. The ride home after the party with her and her friend, Zoey was awkward. Since then Paris hadn't said much to her, she shrugged it off.

Milan felt she did nothing to her for her to act differently toward her.

"Yeah?"

"I meant to talk to you after the party but, I know it was awkward."

Milan nodded, "It's fine."

Paris twisted her lips before looking at the ground. She didn't want to be an asshole to Milan but she had to let her know that Sean wasn't to be messed with.

"I'm sorry for treating you like you're invisible. It's just that Zoey and Sean had dealings before and when she saw you two together, she had gotten upset."

Milan was now wide awake, trying to understand where she was coming from.

"I wasn't talking to you because I know how Sean had hurt Zoey, and I guess I didn't know if I should distance myself for her sake."

"I wish you would've told me sooner. I like you Paris, and I don't see him in that way. He's just a friend."

Paris nodded, "I understand, but since Zoey's a long time friend. I have to distance myself."

Flashback Ends.

The two agreed to be cordial but she didn't understand, and she didn't want to. She felt that Sean was sweet and she wasn't going to let anyone cloud her judgement about him.
