"is that the last of the stuff?"

josh nods his head affirmatively and sets the empty cardboard box on the ground. "i'm probably gonna end up selling some of it, though. like the bed."

"why the bed?" asks mia.

"well i don't really need my own bed, considering the fact that i can't fall asleep anymore without you next to me," he replies. after a long day of moving his stuff to mia's apartment and helping tyler and jenna move into their new house, his itinerary for the rest of the evening is to just chill with his girlfriend.

mia knows damn well that the sleeping thing goes both ways, because on the nights that josh isn't there to play with her hair or rub her back it takes her at least an hour to fall asleep.

"what if we have an argument or something and need time to cool off?"

josh looks at her like she's crazy. "i would never let you go to sleep on an argument. we would just have to work it out, for the sake of our cuddling situation."

she grins and doesn't say anything back. instead of jenna's plethora of pastels and pinks, the room now has the majority of josh's things. his drum set, a million and one drumsticks, various books and dvds along with a bunch of tour souvenirs and other collectibles.

as she's standing by the small bookshelf turning over a worn copy of to kill a mockingbird in her hands, josh walks up behind her and slides his arms around her torso. his chin rests on her shoulder while he hugs her to his chest.

"i love you," he says quietly, affectionately nuzzling his head in the valley where her neck meets her shoulder. "i'll love you forever, okay?"

mia slowly places the book back in its spot on the shelf, making it even with the others around it. "te quiero para siempre."

josh grins with amusement. he never really thought about how beautiful language was until he met mia, and got the privilege to be told 'te quiero' by someone as captivating as her.

"can we go lay down for a little bit maybe?" suggests the male. his voice is low and gentle.

she nods her head in response and turns around to face him, her hands reaching up and cupping josh's cheeks. his scruff tickles her hands. "sure, baby."

josh smiles fondly at the brunette girl that has stolen his heart and presses a chaste kiss to her forehead. he goes to say something but stops when he feels winston the cat brushing against his leg, demanding attention.

"i guess someone's coming with us," he muses with a soft laugh, bending over to pick up the affectionate fur ball and holding it to his chest. "alright, you needy baby, you can tag along," josh teases while stroking its fur.

mia follows josh back to her - their room. the first thing she does after plugging in the string lights is go over to her laptop and open up spotify to start the playlist she has for all cuddling and/or napping occasions.
