Sapphire's POV

I woke to the sound of quiet gunshots coming from the TV. My head hurt quite a bit, probably because I'd slept too long and I was hoping it wasn't really late or my mom would whoop my ass.

I tried to shuffle my body slightly as I ached all over from being in the same position for too long but I felt restricted. Maybe I'll just go back to sleep, I buried my head again and tucked myself back into- wait what. My eyes opened and mine and Sam's bodies were closely pressed against each other. I heard Sam giggle into my ear and secure his grip around me.

I hadn't moved from when I fell asleep but Sam had laid down beside me on the couch and was currently playing what I presume was call of duty.

"Good evening, sleepy head." He smiled, pausing his game to look down at me.

"What's the time?" I ask, rubbing my eyes tiredly.

"Uh- 6.20pm." He clarify's looking down at his watch. Shit. I told my mom I'd be home hours ago. I'll get grounded and the time I finally have friends and let myself go a little it will all come to an end, I suppose it was good while it lasted..right?

"Shit, I told my mom I-" I jolt up. "Hey-hey. " He stops me." Maisie texted her to tell her you'd be home later."

I sighed with relief as I really couldn't be bothered nor did I have the energy to move from this couch right now, so I threw my body back down but turned onto my other side to face the TV. The couch wasn't overly big so in all honesty it couldn't fit us both on very well.

"If you keep shuffling you're butt, we are going to have a problem." Sam says sternly, his cheeks flushing red. I felt the sudden urge of confidence and decided to tease him slightly. I'm like the new and improved Sapphire James.

I rolled my hips slowly hearing him groan from behind me. "Saph, Stop." He says, his jaw tightening. "Happily." I wink. After a few minutes of watching Sam shoot people on his game, My stomach made a gurgling sound which made him laugh.

"I'm starved." I say, rubbing my belly, I mean I only ate like 2 hours ago but I'm not ashamed to say I can put away food like there is no tomorrow, that's probably the reason I was obese in 7th grade but now I manage to keep the weight off by going to the gym.

"That makes two of us. I think we're going out to eat soon." Sam added.

"Where's Maisie?" I ask, as I think it would be a good idea to go home to take a shower and get ready and meet the boys wherever they wanted to go. Mainly I didn't dare go out looking like hell, I get picked on enough without the possibility of seeing someone from school and also because i'm big on hygiene and can't go a day without showering as I feel disgusting.

He pointed over to the room next to his. I wiggled out from under Sam's grip and walked over to the room, knocking before I went in just in case I barged in and god forbid my best friend and Nate were like having sex or something. I heard a faint "come in" from inside, so I twisted the door handle and went in, Maisie and Nate watching a film being all cutesy cuddled up in bed. Well, they got to know each other rather quickly.

"Oh she's finally awake. Do you know what the time is Miss James?!" My best friend interrogated me.

"Shut up, you know I cherish my sleep okay. Besides you could have woken me up!" I defend.

"Yeah, We could have." She smirked looking at Nate then back to me. "But you were pre-occupied with Sammy.." She winked. Oh god, i'm never going to live this one down. Correct me if I'm wrong but at school she was telling me to avoid him and she despised him now she's practically teasing me about him.
