Hi guys and Happy Monday!

I find it kinda hard to believe that it's Monday again already but I hope you guys are liking the book so far and are looking forward to this next chapter :3!

This week includes Aryia and Evra fighting Cassie and Reggie in a couple vs couple video hosted by Kévin, as well as the roommates hanging out by the pool and Aryia throwing her in after doing his makeup for the Candyland album art. I included the Pool Day imagine from my other Aryia book cuz like the Wisdom Teeth Removal imagine, it's also canon to this book :3

I hope you all enjoy the new chapter :D!!

Two weeks after celebrating Aryia's first soberversary, Kévin wanted to film another video with us. Since Aryia's anniversary; Kévin had taken quizzes about the friend group, Cassie had tried an edible and cut Reggie's hair after getting high, and Aryia and I had stayed cooped up in the music studio for a couple of days thinking we had caught covid from the symptoms we were showing – however I thought it was more like a regular infection myself, especially when he barely coughed during the tattoo video he filmed while we were sleeping in my old bed down there. In spite of this though, we wanted to make sure the roommates didn't contract whatever bug we had, so we quarantined ourselves to protect them. Though now that Aryia and I were feeling better, we could finally get back to hanging out with the roommates.

The five of us were sitting around the table under the awning; Kévin was in the middle with Aryia and I on his right and Cassie and Reggie on his left, all looking sad as he had told us to do for the effect of the video.

"So as you saw from the title, this is something that we've been... talking about amongst us, tryna figure it out. And, it's come to the conclusion where – at least for me, I can no longer keep living like this. Just the idea of not knowing... Who's the better couple?"

"What?!" Reggie asked.

"Reggie and Cassie or Aryia and Evra?!"

Aryia, Cassie and I all let out a laugh – mainly at Reggie's reaction.

"Who's the better fucking couple?!" Kévin repeated, as Cassie hugged Reggie and I gave Aryia a cuddle on his other side. "I can't keep living like this! I need to know! And therefore; today we're gonna figure out who knows each other better – Reggie and Cassie, or obviously Aryia and Evra."

"What do you mean "obviously"?" Reggie said with a raised eyebrow as Aryia put his arm around me.

"Cuz we're obviously the best couple." Aryia answered.

"Then kiss." Reggie prompted us.

"Mmm." Cassie nodded. "Yeah."

"We kiss more than you guys do."

"How'd you know we don't usually kiss, Evra?" The blond asked with a pout.

"'Cuz I've never actually seen you guys kissing." I shrugged before kissing Aryia hard on the lips.

He looked taken aback as his eyes widened, before realizing that I had stolen a kiss from him and kissing back with equal passion. It felt like he was trying to make Reggie and Cassie jealous, but the way he was kissing me also made me feel hot. A fervor came over me but just as I was about to deepen the kiss more, Kévin coughed, snapping me back into the reality of the time and a place.

"Okay, we get it, you guys like to kiss." Reggie said with an eye roll. "But you only got together in January. Cassie and I have known each other for 10 years!"
