Saige's POV

I really need to stop drinking because every morning I wake up hungover, my head kills. Although, I remember last night a lot more clearly than the last time I drank. Mariana got all upset about Wesley and I, and I don't know why. She wanted to protect me or whatever, but from what?

"Morning, beautiful," Wesley smiled, standing in the doorway. I was too deep in my thoughts to notice he wasn't next to me when I woke up. I gave him a smile and patted the empty space next to me, telling him to lay next to me.

"Morning, Wesley," I said as sweetly as he did. He laid back down next to me, and I snuggled into his side. He kissed my head and left his lips there for awhile.

"I have breakfast downstairs," he mumbled into my hair.

"I hope you have some aspirin, too," I chuckled. He kissed my cheek one last time and pulled my arm up. I groaned and got up, well, more like was forced up. I followed him downstairs, and he already had plates and everything made sitting at the table.

"You're really something, Stromberg." He even already had aspirin laying by my plate.

"I remembered from last time," he chuckled. We sat down and ate our eggs, hash browns, toast and bacon.

"Where are the others? Did they come home last night?" I asked him.

"They stayed up last night. They're staying tonight up there, too. Mari feels pretty bad about last night, so she wanted to stay away and give us space for the night."

"That sounds pretty nice, but I'm still mad about last night. I was really looking forward to getting all of you," I smirked.

"Me too, but we are alone tonight. I mean, if you're up for something like that. We could go on a nice date, or we could even stay home for dinner. Then, leave a little time for us to relax or not relax," he winked.

"That sounds nice."

"I'll have something planned by five, but if you come up with something, let me know." We finished eating and cleaned up the dishes.

"I think I'm gonna go home and get cleaned up. I'll be back in awhile," I informed Wesley after we cleaned up our mess.

"You can clean up here with me," he teased.

"You're disgusting," I muttered jokingly.

"I'll get you in a shower with me one day, you watch, Jackson," he winked. I rolled my eyes and pecked his lips goodbye. I went home and hopped in the shower first. I dried my hair and straightened it when I was done in the shower. I did my makeup, and then I looked for a good outfit to wear. I have an idea of where we're going, so I dressed nice.

I went back over a couple hours before five. He was still lying around watching TV, doing nothing.

"Pretty productive day for you, huh?" I teased.

"Yeah, actually it is. While you were gone, I worked on some tracks Keaton and I started with Drew the other day," he sassed.

"Really? Let me hear," I insisted. I followed him down to their basement where they worked on their music. He pulled out his guitar and a notepad.

"I couldn't really record anything without the boys' opinions first, so maybe you could give me yours before I show them?"

"Sure," I agreed. He started off strumming softly, and then gradually getting louder. He shot me a smile before opening his mouth to sing.

First winter's snowfall
Throwing backyard snowballs
Warming up by the fireplace
Marshmallows catch fire on an open flame
All my friends get together
Wishing I was there but I'm never
Living in the sunshine oh but dreaming of a place called home

I wanna run wanna run away-ay
I'm dreaming of a place called home
I could try but I'm stuck in today
I'm dreaming of a place that's
3000 miles away
Feels like it's forever
Seems like yesterday
We were running 'round town together
This place, just ain't the same
I miss the stormy weather
I'm not okay
3000 miles away
