I was woken up by someone pulling me away from the warm and soft body I was laying on. When did I fall asleep? Where was I? Wait, who was I laying on?

Oh, right.

Melissa pulled me off of Luke and sat me up right on the couch. "I think we should go. It's a school night and it's already pretty late." I yawned and stretched before rubbing my eyes tiredly. "Awe, cute! Hey, do you think we can sleep over at yours? We don't really wanna go home." She asked me.

I shrugged my shoulders and mumbled a small 'Sure'. "I have one extra mattress in my room and the other two can sleep on our couch. We can unfold it, so it's just a little smaller than a king sized bed. Alright with you?" I said to them.

"Can I sleep in your room?" Melissa asked me. She gave me a look that was almost desperate, so maybe she needed to talk to me about something...? I nodded my head and stood up. I yawned and stretched again until I felt someone tuck at my shirt.

I looked behind me and saw that Luke was pulling it down. "Michael was staring at your stomach, so I pulled your shirt down a bit." He muttered with a little frown on his face. He looked down a bit and I grabbed his face in my hands gently to make him look at me again.

"Wipe that frown off your face. You're much cuter when you're smiling." He blushed at that, but there was a grin creeping on his face, what made me a bit proud. I love seeing Luke smile and being happy, so I was glad I could make him smile.

We all stood up and walked to the door after me and the girls grabbed all of our stuff. We all said our goodbyes and hugged the boys. It seemed as if we were four couples all together, because me and Luke were talking a bit longer, Michael and Anouk were, Ashton was with Melissa and Calum and Anne were bidding their goodbyes also.

I found it cute how Michael and Anouk were almost swooning about seeing the other, whilst Melissa and Ashton together just made me feel a bit weird. Calum and Anne just seemed friends, nothing more, so I didn't think much about it. I can't really see them together anyway.

We said one final goodbye and then we stood outside, walking to my house.

<><><>

"Goodnight! We'll see you two in the morning..." I said to Anouk and Anne who were laying on the couch. After asking my parents, they were okay with them sleeping over, so I got the couch ready for them, while Melissa was preparing her bed in my room.

Melissa and I walked upstairs and laid down on our beds. "So, what do you want to tell me?" I asked Melissa. I still had a few candles burning, which I would put out later, so we could still each other's faces while talking.

"Ugh, you know me so well." She said. "I can't keep anything from you, can I?" I just shook my head 'no' at her and smiled innocently. "Okay, so it's about me and this boy. Well, actually no boy, because he doesn't actually like me, but you know what I mean. It's just, I really like him but- "

"Is this about your feelings for Tristan, you thinking he doesn't like you the same way and trying to move on from it with Ashton?" I cut her off. She looked at me with a dazed look, not believing I knew her that well.

Breaking news; I do.

She nodded and looked down. I got out of my bed and crawled in hers next to her. I wrapped my arm around her and she put her head on my shoulder. "How many times do I have to tell you? Tristan likes you! Hell, he might even be in love with you... I love how oblivious you are to it though. When he asked you if you wanted to hang out with you, nervous as if he was proposing, you just said 'sure' as if you didn't care at all. It was amazing, if you would've known then that he was actually asking you on a date, or you know, just spending some alone time with you, I'm sure you would've jumped up and down then into his arms and hugged him while shouting 'Yes, yes, of course!'."
