Tobin's POV

I felt the sun peak through the curtains as I slowly woke up. The bright light burned my eyes for the first moments, but they adjusted.
I couldn't help but smile widely at what I noticed next.
Alex was lying next to me, snuggled up into my chest. She must've fallen asleep on my arm, cause I couldn't really feel it at this point. Not that I cared about that. She was so beautiful.

I tried remembering last night, and as I looked at the brunette beauty, it all came back to me shortly. We kissed. We had an amazing night together, just the two of us.
I have no idea how it went with anyone else, because she's all I focused on.

"Morning." Alex suddenly breathed out, raspy morning voice that sent chills though me. My smile grew even bigger by the second.
"Morning, beautiful." I said back, kissing the top of her head. It felt so natural to wake up next to her. Having her in my arms, her body fit so perfectly next to mine.
"Last night, was-" she started, but seemed to be at a loss of words to describe the night.
"I know." I agreed, knowing what went through her mind. She suddenly snuggled even closer into me, leaving no space between us.

"Tobin?" She asked, closing her eyes as she rested her head. The way she said my name was the best feeling.
"Yes?" I simply answered, wondering what she was about to say. She had a smile on her face.
"Will you be my girlfriend?"

Christen's POV

'Thank you for last night. I had the best time'. I smiled as I read the text from Julie.
'Oh, and good morning' she added, again causing my face to light up.

Last night had been so much fun, despite some weird happenings occasionally. Julie had walked me home, and even though it took like an hour, it was so worth it.
I really wanted to kiss her goodnight, but I think we both also really wanted to save that for a sober state. She's such a gentle and sweet person, I can't believe how lucky I am.
'Wanna grab coffee?' Another text popped up on my screen, and I felt butterflies in my stomach. Of course I wanted coffee.

"Chris!" I saw Julie waving at me the soonest I walked into the coffee shop. She was smiling bright, practically glowing like she always does.
"Hey, you." I sat down on the chair across from her, and smiled widely.
"You look good." She said flirty, and I'm sure I blushed majorly.

We ordered coffee and just continued on where we left of the night before. I felt as if I could talk to Julie for hours and hours.
We eventually decided we had to get going, seeing as Julie had a family thing to attend.

"Thank you for inviting me." I said coyly, as we were saying goodbye outside the shop.
"Thank you for joining me." She said back, looking right at me now. We were close, but still not close enough.
"We should do it again sometime." She added, looking like she was hoping I agreed.
"Definitely. It's a date." I felt bold as I spoke, hoping she had the same impression of out coffee date. What else was this?
"It's a date." She said excited, grinning.

I noticed her taking a step closer now, and I felt my heartbeat raise. I wanted her to kiss me, but at the same time I was terrified.
"Goodbye, then." She close to whispered, not moving in the right direction for her to be leaving. I felt my eyes fall to her lips, as she was unintentionally licking them. Shit.
I couldn't take it. In one swift motion I grabbed her waist and pulled her close to me. She looked startled at first, but quickly seemed to regain confident.
Julie let her hand move up to my face, and carefully stroke my cheek as she pulled me even closer. I felt her breath on my lips, and after a search in her eyes that she wanted me to, I closed the gap between us.
Our lips collided in an explosion, and I've never felt more alive than in that moment.

Kelley's POV

The burning light of the sun woke me up, and my head pounded immensely. My mouth was dry and I couldn't help but taste an unfamiliar taste in my mouth.
I got my eyes open, and as they adjusted I tried figuring out where I was. Last nigh was one big black hole in my memory.

I noticed someone turn next to me, and I froze. There was someone in my bed. Yes, it was my bed, I was home. Thank god my parents were out of town the whole weekend.
Did I go home with Hope last night? Did we actually just repeat history cause that would-

I turned my head and shot my eyes open. The girl next to me, definite not Hope. I twisted my head to figure out how the heck this happened, why Morgan was currently in my bed. Fuck.
Did I sleep with her?

I tried carefully not to wake her up as I reached out to get my phone on the nightstand, feeling my head pouring from the hangover.
5 texts, 3 missed calls and a couple voicemails. Wow, Carli was desperate last night.
'Are you with Hope?' I read the first text, already then getting a bad feeling.
'Kelley, have you seen Hope??'
'I'm at her apartment, she's not here'
'I can't find her, please tell me you're with her'
I felt my stomach tighten as I read them in my mind. If Hope was not with me, and apparently not at home, where the hell is she.

"Good morning." A voice suddenly spoke next to me, and I quickly turned to face the source. Morgan had woke up, and she was smiling coyly at me now.
I smiled back, even surprising myself a little at how obvious I was checking her out. She looked good, very good. I even found myself biting down at my lower lip, as she involuntarily licked her own lips.
"Hey, there." I said back, finding myself very much attracted to her. It surprised me because for a long time I haven't been able to even look at anyone else than a certain goalkeeper, not even letting my thoughts wander like this about anyone else. Somehow I felt things were different now, like I had some kind of closure with the older girl. Something must've happened last night for sure.

"You don't remember much from last night, do you?" Morgan suddenly asked, smirking a little as she stretched her arms.
I shook my head guilty, relieved that she was being so cool about it. I sat up a little in the bed, looking around to see our clothes messily thrown around the room.
"I just need to make a call, but just put on whatever you want from my closet if you're not feeling like getting into that dress. There's no one here, so just make yourself at home, okay?" I smiled to the younger girl, knowing I had some kind of responsibility to at least give her some food before I throw her out.
I didn't mind her being here though, she seemed like a chill person.

She just nodded and laid causally back down in bed. I was definitely warming up to this girl.
