Chapter 7 - The end might just be the beginning

I'd been shuffling through boxes, hoping I could find what I was looking for. I'd also been unpacking in the process. When I finally found what I was looking for, I cleaned the lenses on my shirt and slid them on my face. I looked in the mirror and felt so much more comfortable. I was wearing dark blue skinny jeans with holes in the knees and a black t-shirt. My hair was pulled up into a messy bun on top of my head with pieces falling down in the front.  

I'd been wearing contacts since I’d moved in and was getting tired of them so I’d unpacked all my boxes in search of the black Ray Ban's. 

Something from the kitchen wafted over to my room. Smells like... BACON! 

I ran down the stairs and when I entered the kitchen I saw everybody there but Tony. They all looked at me, hanging off the kitchen doorway looking flustered. Mike raised an eyebrow at me and I cracked a grin as I said, 

"I smelled bacon." 

"You have glasses?" Jaime asked surprised. 

"Yes sir! I can actually see you all now! And might I say, this is a beautiful house you've got here." 

They all laughed at my sarcastic joke. 

"You're cooking bacon right?"

Vic nodded and said, 

"Want some?" 

I nodded my head then went and sat down beside Jaime. 

"Where’s Tone?" I asked.

"In the living room with Stephanie." Mike said rolling his eyes. 

Wait, what?

I shrugged it off as me seeing thing. I felt a hand on my lower back and Jaime leaned over and whispered, 

"You look adorable right now." 

I giggled in response. Wait, what? I don't giggle. 

Jaime, what are you doing to me? I thought to myself. 

All 3 of the boys looked at me with wide eyes. It was awkward because they just stared at me for a few minutes until Jaime started laughing which caused Vic and Mike to start laughing. 

"Guys! Stop laughing at me! It's not nice!" I whined jokingly. 

Jaime stopped laughing. Or attempted to anyways. The look on his face was priceless as he tried to hold in his laughter. After 15 minutes of uncontrolled laughter, Vic set food in front of us and Jaime took a bite of his bacon and moaned loudly making me laugh and choke on my bacon. 

We all started laughing again and Tony came into the kitchen and said, 

"What the hell is so funny? You 4 have been laughing for the past 20 minutes!" 

"Long story short: Jaime." Vic said laughing

"Makes sense." Tony responded then walked back out of the kitchen. I stuck my tongue out at his back and muttered, "Loser." Under my breath. 

Jaime, Vic and Mike laughed and I yelled, 

"Damn, I'm hilarious!" 

They all started laughing again as Vic took all our dishes. Jaime -still laughing- slammed his head down on the counter. 

"Owe." He mumbled. 

"Dumbass." Mike responded 

I could tell it was going to be a good day.
