I was finally in L.A. at my new apartment with my three new roommates! We grabbed our bags out of the Jeep and headed upstairs. Ethan took me up to the apartment to show me around while Jaxon and Grayson went out to grab some food. They had got home before us and instead of waiting at the apartment for us they left, which was really fine, I was way too tired to move anything tonight anyways.

I still haven't replied to Grayson's text; he was just so confusing. He has a gf and maybe the whole ''cutie'' thing was meant to be friendly but still, if I were his gf I wouldn't be okay with him texting other girls that.

Ethan showed me the main part of the apartment, then there were two connecting hallways to the living room, two bedrooms on each side. We went down one hallway that had Jaxon and Ethan's room, great that meant that on the other side would be Grayson's room next to mine. There were 3 bathrooms one on Jaxon and Ethan's side, one on our side of the apartment and the boys gave me the room with my own bathroom. Thankfully!! I hated sharing my bathroom with my brothers growing up, it sucked.

It was about 12:30 pm and I figured I wouldn't be moving anything in tonight anyways. The drive was exhausting and both Ethan and I were on the verge of passing out. He told me I could just sleep in his room for the night. It didn't feel awkward, we really bonded over the drive home. I felt like Ethan could potentially be my new closest friend. He laid on the left side of the bed and I laid on the right facing the wall. I could have just slept on the couch but I didn't want to get in anyone's way. We were out in minutes.

I woke up to Grayson opening Ethan's door and being fairly loud, "will you guys get up already we need to move all your stuff in Emma, unless you'd prefer to just live here in Ethan's room." I felt hatred in his voice, he glared at me and looked upset. What was his problem. He rolled his eyes and shut the door.

Oh that was his problem, I realized that I was wrapped in his twin brother's arms

Oh that was his problem, I realized that I was wrapped in his twin brother's arms. We must have moved and cuddled up in our sleep. Ethan was still asleep so I was careful not to wake him as I got up. Ethan was just my friend, this meant nothing. Besides Grayson has no right to be angry, I'm just glad he saw us and not Jaxon. Well first night here and there is already drama. Great! Good job Emma.

I got up and walked in to my new room, Jaxon was still in his and I had no clue where Grayson had gone. I had my things that I brought in from the Jeep. I wanted to get a shower but I didn't really have anything in my bathroom yet. I decided to just refresh my makeup, luckily my hair wasn't really dirty at all. I knew it was going to be hot out especially moving things up and down the apartment stairs! From what I had with me, I chose my favorite light jean shorts which were actually pretty comfortable, my light grey crop top and a light knitted cardigan. I mean sure this isn't exactly a moving outfit but I wanted to look somewhat cute!

I went to Jaxon's room. He was working on something on his computer.

"So you slept in Ethan's room last night?" he asked, I couldn't tell if he was upset about it, I couldn't really tell anything. Jaxon was could at asking questions point blank.

"Yeah, we got back and just crashed, I would have laid on the couch, but I didn't want to be in anyone's way. I'm sorry I know how you feel about it and I know the conditions I agreed to." I legit felt bad, I had already upset Grayson I didn't want to upset Jaxon as well.

"oh Em, I don't really mind that you did I was just asking, ready to get moving?" he stood up grabbing his keys to the build for us to get back in. Well no need to worry me then Jaxon! I just nodded in reply. Rolling my eyes as I followed him down stairs and out to the front of our building.

Grayson's POV

I pulled up to the front of the building to meet Emma and Jaxon. She looked so cute for just waking up. It kind of hurt seeing her with Ethan like that this morning. I had told him I had feelings for her. I was planning on breaking up with my girlfriend before she could even find out, but if she wanted to be with Ethan I couldn't do anything about it.

I hopped out of the truck and went to the back to open it up. I just wanted to get this over with, then I could leave. I didn't want to be around Emma, she never even replied to my text. I thought she liked me.

Ethan's POV

I woke up, Emma was gone. Last night I felt her cuddle up to my side, I didn't stop her. I know I should have, I mean Gray really liked her and if he saw us he would have been so upset. I got up out of bed and walked into the kitchen. The front door opened, it was the three of them moving stuff in. Jaxon and Grayson were struggling with a dresser. "Here let me help you," I went to reach for the bottom of the dresser.

Gray kind of snapped at me, "Ethan! We got it!Just back up!" what the hell was his problem. Hes never snapped at me like that before. Emma followed them in,

"Hey, your up!" She was happy for it being so early in the morning. I defiantly was not a morning person.

"Yeah, what's up with Grayson he seems ticked off?"

"He's been like that since he woke me up this morning! I don't know what the issue is, maybe you should try to talk to him." She seemed upset that Grayson was being like this.

I knew exactly why he was acting like this though, it was her. He obviously had to of seen us this morning. Jaxon and Emma walked past me and out the door Gray was close behind, I stopped him by putting my hand on his chest. "Gray, nothing happened, she came over to me in the middle of the night! I felt bad for her I wasn't going to be a dick and push her away. She's my friend"

"Whatever Ethan." He tried to walk away acting like he could careless about the entire situation.

"Dude, seriously, she likes you. There's nothing between us." I really wanted him to believe me but Grayson was pretty hard headed. I just felt bad for Emma.

Grayson headed out the door not listening to a single thing I had said.

-----

It has been about 2 weeks since Emma moved in. Gray had forgave me, he could never stay mad at me, we are just too close. Emma and Grayson didn't really talk. She's been busy trying to find a good job so I hadn't really spent anytime with her either, but when I did I enjoyed every minute of it. She has become a really great friend to me.

Sometimes she has a really hard time sleeping, so she will come into my room in the middle of the night and sleep in there cuddled up against me. I could tell she was still holding onto so much. I couldn't blame her. She's been through a lot. Jaxon doesn't know about any of it though, its strictly a friendship between us but I know he would still be upset.

I do care a lot about Emma, it sucks that Grayson couldn't get it through his thick head that she liked him and not me. Every since that morning, he has been bringing his girlfriend Maria over and practically rubbing their relationship in Emma face. I think part of it had to do with Maria being jealous of Emma and worrying that Gray would cheat with her. I mean it was a possibility and I would really rather have him be with Emma than her. I've never like Maria, she's not a good person and Grayson's starting to change because of her. He could do so much better than her.. He could have Emma.

They both want each other... but they don't even realize it.
