Hello! I have another chapter :D Quick thing before you start reading - if any of you publish on Wattpad as well, does anyone know how to fix the problem I have where if I copy and paste words into this thing, random words get spaces deleted from between them? It's super annoying having to go through and add back spaces :( I'll do it, because I'm not really interested in posting a messed up document, but eh. It takes so much efforrrrrt. :P

Anyway! Enjoy!! xx Tori

 Ally pulled into the parking lot behind Stevie's car. She hadn't ever been to the apartment building that Stevie lived at, but she'd heard about it. It was typically a place where college kids lived, but Ally wasn't one to judge or anything. Stevie's car parked in the lot, and Ally followed suit, before climbing out of her car.

Stevie didn't say anything as they started inside, and Ally suddenly felt very shy. Why? Who knows? Apparently she was reverting into her shy, middle school self by being around this gorgeous girl. "Here we are," Stevie finally said, unlocking the door to an apartment.It wasn't particularly big, but it looked pretty neat, especially considering that Stevie must've only moved there quite recently. Most things looked unpacked, though furniture was still sparse in the living room and kitchen area. "My stuff is in room."

"Nice place," Ally said naturally, imagining what it might look like after Stevie had lived here for more than a few weeks.

"Hardly," Stevie answered, rolling her eyes as she walked toward a door. Opening it, Ally's eyes immediately scanned over the other girl's bedroom. The bed was made neatly, an a few shelves were up along the walls. None of them were really filled, though, because multiple boxes were stacked against her wall, unopened. "It's all in there."

"Do you film a lot usually?" Ally wondered.

"I like to," Stevie answered, smiling. "I haven't during the move, but I meant to start again last week. School's been keeping me busy, though, and driving around this place takes forever."

"True," Ally agreed. "That's cool, though."

"What kind of stuff did you used to film?" Stevie wondered,pulling a box off of the pile and dropping it on her bed, which she sat on as she began to open it. Ally, feeling slightly hesitant, sat down on the other side of the box and began helping Stevie pull out camera equipment.

"Oh, I used to make music videos," Ally answered, shrugging. "I haven't made much more music lately, though, so no reason to make videos."

Stevie sent Ally a side glance, wondering if the other brunette noticed, and then hummed. "That's a shame, why don't you?"

"Ah, it's complicated," Ally answered, looking at Stevie's camera. It was really nice – nicer than Ally's anyway. "Where'd you get this?"

"Oh, I don't know, my ex-girlfriend got it for me last year."Ally blinked, honestly surprised at how straight-forward Stevie had said that statement. Then again, there wasn't really a reason for her not to be so straight-forward about her sexuality anyway. "It's really high-quality, I'd get it again myself in a heartbeat."

"I need something like this," Ally admitted, turning the device on and scrolling through the settings.

"Look at you being so helpful," Stevie said sarcastically after a few minutes, smirking as she finished emptying the first box. Some of the stuff hadn't even been for filming, like her good hairbrush –she'd been using her shitty one for the last couple of weeks. It was nice to unpack, though.

Ally guiltily turned off Stevie's camera and set it down. "Sorry."

"You don't even have to be here to help, Ally," Stevie insisted,rolling her eyes as she tossed the empty box on the ground. "I just need to get my stand and stuff set up, I can probably do it myself."
