I decided to unpack as it needed to be done. i got everything put into the dresser that was in the room, and was getting my shoes put into the closet as i heard a knock on the door. i went and opened it to see rhea standing in the door way. "Dinners ready if you want to come down and eat. if not i can bring it up here to you." she said looking into my eyes. "i dont think i can handle everyone right now." I say being honest. "Do you want me to eat up here with you?" She asked, leaning against the door frame. i nodded and she smiled saying, "Give me a few minutes and i will be right back. Water okay to drink?" "Yes please." she walked off and i went and sat down on the bed. i pulled out my phone and called emily. "hannah? are you okay?" she answered on the third ring. "I'm okay. i'm safe. i just wanted to tell you." "Okay," she paused before saying, "Call me tomorrow when you have a chance." "I will. i love you em." I told her before hanging up the phone. afte a couple of minutes rhea came back into my room with two bowls and a couple of bottles of water. She handed me one of the bowls and one of the waters saying, "theres also a cake in the oven for dessert. i told the guys that the first piece goes to you." I took the food and water from her saying, "Thank you, i'm starving." i started eating as she sat on the bed next to me. we ate in a comfortable silence. i finished eating, and glanced at her. i met her eyes and felt my face turning red. i looked away quickly, thinking 'Why am i acting like a girl with a crush every time i look at her?' i felt the bed move as she came closer to me, brushing my hair out of my face, with her saying, "You shouldn't hide your face, be proud of who you are." she looked at her phone saying, "I'll be right back with some cake." She stood up from my bed and grabbed my empty bowl from me. she was halfway out the door when she stopped and asked, "Do you want to watch a movie in my room with me?" "Sure. Can i pick?" rhea smiled and said, "of course. go ahead and go in there. the remote is on my nightstand." I nod and she walks off.
after changing into my pajamas since i decided i might as well be comfortable, i went into rhea's room and started scrolling through. after a few more minutes Rhea walked into her room holding a plate with two pieces of cake on it. she looked at me in my pajamas, and said, "If you're in jammies, im getting in jammies." She handed me the plate. and went to her dresser. with her back to me, I sat down on her bed as she searched the drawers. after a minute or two she exclamied, "Yes! Found them!" She was holding up the same exact pajamas i was wearing. i laughed as she turned around, a goofy grin on her face. "Im going to go change," She reached into her back pocket pulling out two forks and said, "Dig in." i started eating one of the pieces of the cake, and she walked off. after a few minutes she came back in and sat next to me asking, "Did you find a movie?" i nodded and said, "I picked deadpool, it's one of my favorites." she smiled saying, "It's fine with me." i hit play on the movie as she ate her piece of cake. after she had finished and the plate was out of the way, she moved up to the head of the bed. patting the spot next to her saying, "Get up here, your back will be happier." I smiled and moved to sit next to her. As i got settled she asked, "Would it be okay if i put my arm around you?" Feeling my face heat up i nodded my head. She smiled and very gently wrapped her arm around my waist, saying, "Let me know if you get uncomfortable." "Okay." as we were watching the movie, i felt myself grow tired. Deciding to rest my eyes for a few minutes, i laid my head on Rhea's shoulder. I woke up a little while later and felt an arm wrapped around my waist. i freaked out for a second until i realized that i was no long with justin. I was safe and the arm wrapped around me belonged to Rhea. i laid there for a few minutes debating on if i wanted to get up and go to my room, i eventually decided to stay there. i fell back asleep within minutes.
please let me know what you guys think
