I wake up Sunday morning to my phone vibrating loudly against the wooden side table. I carefully untangle myself from Josh and roll over to look at my phone. I see tons of twitter @'s. I look and there are a bunch saying 'You and Josh are the cutest!' and 'I want a relationship like that.' I quickly realize that Elijah and Cara had again taken pictures of us. They both posted the same picture, of Josh holding me with my head on his chest. I jump as I feel Josh turn over and look over my shoulder.

    "Good morning." He says groggily

    "Morning." I smile

    "What's that?"

    "They've struck again." I say holding the phone up so he could see it.

    "We just can't catch a break. Can we?"

    "Nope. At least not as long as they're around." I say chuckling, "Okay well I'm going to go get in the shower."

    "Okay. I'm going to go make some coffee."

    We both walk to the living area silently, Josh goes to the kitchen, while I continue to mine and Cara's room. I quietly open the door not wanting to wake Cara. As soon as I step in my mouth drops and I quickly run back out.

    "Josh!" I whisper eagerly

    "What?" He says as I bust out laughing, "What? What is it?"

    I motion for him to come to Cara and I's bedroom. He walks over and looks inside, and just as I did, his mouth drops. Right there, laying tangled in each other, under the covers, naked, was Cara and Elijah.

    "Oh my gosh!!" Josh whispers

    "I can't even. This is just to much!" I laugh

    "What are we going to do?" Josh asks laughing

    "I'll tell you what we're going to do. We're going to take picture. Not post them. But keep them, and not tell them we know." I say grabbing my phone

    "Are you serious? You're actually going to blackmail our best friends?"

    "No, not blackmail. Just consider it, us saying, "If you don't tell us what happened between you two by yourselves, we will tell you what happened between you two."" I say taking a few pictures

    Josh and I take pictures and laugh a little bit more about the fact that they always made fun of us, but then it occurred to me, "Shit. Now how am I supposed to take a shower?"

    "You can use my shower." Josh says pouring me a cup of coffee

    "Thanks, but where am I gonna sleep, because I am NOT sleeping on those sheets."

    "Well you can sleep in my bed and I'll take the couch." Josh says laughing

    "Okay but what if they don't tell us and Elijah goes to sleep with you. I can't just be like, "Yeah Cara sorry but I'm going to sleep on the couch for no apparent reason."'

    "So don't. If they don't tell us then I can make some sort of excuse for me and you to go to my room before we all go to bed, and you     can sleep on the bed and I'll take the floor."

    "But I don't want you sleeping on the floor." I whine

    "Would you rather sleep on those sheets?" He says smirking

    "Fine. Deal. Now I'm going to go get my suitcase and bring it in here. If it comes to it, I don't want to have to go in there every morning with them in there." I say before quietly walking in the room, grabbing my suitcase and bringing it into the living room. I grab a change of clothes and head to Josh's shower.
I shower and get dressed. When I walk out of the bedroom and I see Josh, Elijah, and Cara sitting on the couch, fully dressed, talking.
