"I'm going back to my room Mom let me know if you need anything."
"Okay."
"Hey,"
"Hey, did you ever eat?"
"I did I ate before I saw my mom."
"Ohh, okay I wanted to make sure you ate."
"No, one has ever cared about me as much as you."
"I'll always care for you."
"I love you."
"And I love you."
"But now that you say that I still feel bad about what I did to you."
Alexis starts to cry
"Hey hey come here."
"I know we talked about this a thousand times but it's one of my biggest regrets is hurting you and I never want to do that again."
"Hey, nothing me or you have done will ever change the way I feel about you."
"Really?"
"Of course."
"Okay, sorry I started talking about this again."
Daniel wipes off her tears and kisses her forehead.
"Don't cry okay I don't like seeing you sad."
"Sorry, I know it's embarrassing."
"Don't be sorry okay it's okay I love you so much."
"I love you."
"Hey, is it okay if we skip the movie?"
"Sure, that's okay let me go to the bathroom and we could just lay here if you want?"
"Yeah, go ahead it's just right there."
"Do you want the door closed?"
"Please."
Daniel washes his hands and then gets a phone call from Josh.
"Hey, man what's up?"
"You coming to the party?"
"No, I'm staying in tonight."
"How come?"
"I'm with Alex."
"Oh, okay you guys have fun."
"Thanks, Josh call me if need a ride."
"It's cool I have my car I gotta go."
"Okay, have fun at the party."
"Bye."
Daniel sees Alex asleep and crouches next to her
"Ohh, hey Dan."
"Hey, sorry to wake you."
"It's okay what time is it?"
"Like seven pm."
"Okay."
A couple hours later Daniel packed his stuff so he could go home in the morning."
"Hey, are you leaving?"
"No, I was just packing my stuff for when I leave."
"Ohh okay go ahead."
Daniel gets a phone call from Hunter
"Hey, what's going on?"
"Where are you?"
"I'm at Alex's place."
"Are Mom and Dad asking me where I am?"
"No, they don't know you're over there Dan come home okay."
"I'll come in the morning cover for me please."
"Alright, you're lucky I love you man don't get caught."
"I won't thanks Hunter"
"Of course just get home as soon as you can."

Five hours later
"Hey, Alex my brother found out about me sneaking out I have to go okay."
"Okay, I'll talk to you later I love you."
"Love you too."
Daniel kisses her forehead and leaves
"See you later A."
"Bye."
A couple hours later Daniel gets up and does his morning workout.
"Hey Dan, did you get enough sleep?"
"I did I gave myself another hour."
"That's good."
"I'm heading to the gym wanna come?"
"No, I'm okay I'll go later."
"Okay, I'll be out."
Daniel goes to take a quick run before he heads to the gym until he gets a call from Danielle.
"Um, Dani what do you want?"
"I want, to get back together I'm sure if we talk we'll work things out and we can be a couple again."
"What? no, I have a girlfriend we've been through this Dani I broke up with you because you cheated on me I've been happier than I've ever been because of her I never loved you I honestly was relieved when we broke up because I always felt like an object to you."
"You're kidding me right you think your little summer fling is going to work out?"
"Yes, I do goodbye Dani have a nice life."
"Wait Daniel."
Daniel blocks Danielle's number and heads back home to shower.
Alexis leaves a voicemail for Daniel.
"Hey Dan, I don't know if you're still working out if you've not met me at Joe's I want to buy you breakfast."
He texts her
"Hey, I'm on my way."
Daniel gets ready after his shower."
"Hey, Hunter have you had breakfast?"
"I did we're you going out?"
"Yeah, Alexis just texted me to get food."
