"Is Kat up?" I asked so Sam sighed slightly.

"She woke up when I did but she's not feeling great," Sam explained so I nodded understanding.

"Would it be okay if I go and see her?" I asked so Sam nodded a little sadly.


I headed upstairs not knowing which room she was in. I knocked on a random door and stepped in seeing it was the wrong room, I approached the next door and knocked.

"Yeah?" Kat called through making me smile. I opened the door slowly and smile at her reassuringly. She has sat up in bed, puffy eyes from crying. She smiled at me weakly. I approached, closing the door behind me and taking a seat at the end of her bed facing her. I watched her with a smile giving her the time to tell me what she was thinking when she thinks about it she sighs with frustration. "I feel ridiculous!" she puffed angrily but I sighed. "Why am I so affected by this? It's infuriating," she explained but I shook my head.


"Kat, when someone grabs you a thousand things run through your mind. You may not be scared because he grabbed you, you were scared of what might have happened. I'll be honest with you, I've been jumped before. Someone grabbed me and I punched him in the face and ran off. My fighting instincts kicked in but not everyone is a fighter. I was sick afterwards, the shock wearing off and it was only hours later that I realised I was scared. I was scared of what could have happened if I didn't punch him, I was scared of what could have happened but I had to realise that it didn't. Thankfully you had people around you, you had help and I promise you that no matter what happens that someone will always be there when you need them." I explained. A few tears fell from her eyes but she smiled at me warmly.

"Thank you," she smiled as she crawled down the bed slightly. I met her halfway and hugged her. She hugged me tightly and I knew I helped. We pulled away with a smile.

"Come on, let's get you ready for a great day." I cheered making her laugh. We ended up having a girly morning. We laughed and giggled away as we chose her clothes, I braided her hair to match mine as she did her makeup. There was a faint knock on the bedroom door as I added the bobble to Kat's hair.

"Yeah," Kat called as we looked at the door. Corey's head popped through the door as he smiled.

"Hey, I was wondering if you would help me?" Corey asked as he smiled at me, I looked at Kat through the mirror and she nodded and smiled. I got up and headed out with Corey. "Can you help me with my level, I've been stuck for weeks?" he chuckled as he led me to his room. I laughed as I nodded and took a seat. He was playing Skyrim and I'll admit even I struggled with the level a little. I got passed it on my fourth try. We laughed and joked the whole time. "Ahh, thank you! I never would have been able to do it." Corey cheered making me laugh.



My phone buzzed beside me, Sam had texted making me blush as I read his message. "Since you escaped the conversation you can have the joy of waking Colby up. A little treat for you, he only sleeps in his boxers. Ps, thanks for talking with Kat. She's a lot happier." I winced slightly but smiled. "I'm glad she's okay," I smiled as I replied.

"Which room is Colby's?" I asked Corey so he smirked. "What?" I asked as I looked at him confused. He laughed but shook his head.

"Down the hall, the last door on the right." Corey continued to smirk. I chuckled as I left his room shaking my head. 


I followed Corey's directions and found Colby's door facing Sam's door. I knocked lightly and heard no reply. I knocked again after a little wait, but once again I heard nothing. I looked around wondering if I should go in but shrugged to myself and turned the handle. "Colby?" I questioned as I stepped inside. His bottom half was covered with the blanket but his bare chest was revealed. I smiled, happy to see him shirtless again. It will never get old. "Colby?" I asked a little louder. He stirred slightly with a groan making me laugh as he hid his face, crossing his arms over his head showing his bicep muscle definition. I considered bouncing his mattress but if he's hungover I probably shouldn't. I chuckled to myself lightly. "Ah, you mustn't want to hang out with me today," I teased as I perched on the edge of his bed. Colby instantly turned to me and smiled warmly, he hadn't realised it was me. I giggled as he rubbed his eyes off sleep. His eyes were puffy and sleepy, he looks adorable right now!

"Hey," he greeted as he stretched out. His voice was deeper than normal, I almost melted off the bed. I chuckled with a smile. "Ew, are you a morning person?" he asked sounding offended making me laugh.

"It's noon but no, British time is 7 pm," I explained so he smiled warmly. I grabbed some painkillers and energy drinks out of my bag handing them to him. He smiled gratefully as he sat up not bothering to cover his upper body. I kept my eyes on his face, struggling to not check him out... Again. He accepted my gifts with a smile. I watched as he took the tablets and admired his neck as he tipped his head back, I've never known a neck to be attractive...
