We were sitting on opposite ends of the couch scrolling through movies and I looked at Jay.

"So how exactly did you meet Austin?" I ask, thinking it would be something simple.

Austin never really mentioned how they met or became best friends. He just said his best friend was going to be living with him.

"He didn't say anything?"

"Nope, just that his best friend was living with him. We thought you were made up" I let out a small laugh.

"We met at work, it was kinda boring" he shrugs and goes back to finding something to watch.

"Okayyyy. But like how? You just saw him at work and said: that guy is going to be my best friend:" I say in a deep voice and laugh.

"Something like that" he shrugs. I roll my eyes.

"You're no fun" I saw with a frown and leaned over to hit his arm but just before I did he grabbed my wrist and I looked at my wrist in his hand, in shock. "H-how did-"

"I'm plenty of fun princess. I'm just tired and want to watch a movie, so ask these questions to your brother and leave me the fuck alone" he lets go of my wrist and I hold it while looking at him.

The asshole version of him is back.

This dude has to be bipolar or some shit.

I turn to face the TV and lay my head against the couch as I let out a sigh.

"I'm sorry" I hear him say and turn my head to look at him.

"What?" I ask, raising a brow.

"I didn't mean for that to be so rude. I just don't think your brother would like for me to say how we met without him"

"Why not"

"It's a complicated story" He sighs "I really do wish I could tell you" He gives me a weak smile as I move closer to him on the couch.

"Thanks for saying sorry. For a moment I thought you were bi-polar" I laugh and he laughs with me as he puts his arm behind my head and pulls me closer to him for a side hug.

"I think we might get along after all" he says with a smile and I smile back while laying my head on the back of the couch and closing my eyes.

Before I know it I am drifting to sleep on his shoulder.

He moves a strand of my hair behind my ear.

"Night Belle" I hear him whisper.

Then everything goes black.
