Not Normally (our 2nd life Fanfic)

Chapter 4

      When I woke up the next morning, it was around 7:30, I looked around and smiled. I had forgotten I was here. The rest of the guys had taken off their shirts. It took a while for my eyes to adjust to the light, but when they had, I looked over at Connor and grinned from ear to ear. I still had on his clothes from that night before and they were still warm. I reached in my pocket to check my phone and saw that Tori and Rosy had texted me. Tori and I were both 19 and Rosy's 18, but we all act like 5 year olds, so it works out. They said that they had spent all of yesterday together since I wasn't there. I thought they might be lonely, so I replied saying I would text them Trevor's address if they promised not to tell anyone. They said they promised, so I sent it to them. "AAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!" was all I got back. I thought they might be just a little happy about that. Ricky and Trevor were up as I noticed them staring at me. I looked back over at them and smiled. They smiled back at me and I went over to where they were sitting up against the wall. "Aaawwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!!!!" Ricky said again. "Sooooo... you and Connor, huh? He seems to like you." Trevor told me. "I guess so," I replied. "Let me get Keen-da-Bean(Kian's nickname), because he's kind of the expert, here, with me and Con-da-Bon(Connor's nickname)." I went over to Kian sound asleep on the sofa, with his arms and legs sprawled out everywhere, drooling a little. I giggled. I walked back behind the sofa and shook Kian. He immediately stood up and looked around deliriously. I motioned him to come and sit next to us. He sat down next to me as I explained the rest of the story to Trevor and Ricky. I told them about the kiss and how he even closed his eyes. It was really romantic for me because I had only one boyfriend in my entire life. "You're kidding, right?" Trevor asked me. "No," I replied. "It's not that I'm the most beautiful person ever." I told him. "I think so," a voice said I turned around to see Connor sitting up staring at me with his big green eyes as I smiled back at him with my big green eyes. "Reagan, you're the best thing that's ever happened to me and I hope you know that I couldn't ask for anything else right now. And a quote from Becky G, if I may, 'you complete me, and that's no lie. You are my tuxedo and I'm your bow tie.' " I giggled. By now, the rest of the guys had gotten up were now eavesdropping on our conversation, not that I minded.

      As we all got a bit more adjusted to the morning, which was hard to do, we got dressed and hopped in Connor's car and he drove us to Starbucks for breakfast. Connor and I sat across from each other at the table. He got an iced caramel macchiato, light on the ice, while I got an salted caramel mocha and a pumpkin scone. I gave him a bite of my scone because he said he had never tried it before. When he ate a bite of it, I was sure he loved it because he did one of his famous "ching"s that was so loud and obnoxious that everyone inside turned around in their seats and loooked at us all. We tried to hold it in, but we burst out laughing at the same time and couldn't stop for about 5 minutes. I felt my phone buzz in my back pocket and checked my texts to see that Tori and Rosy were on their way here. I replied and told them to meet us at Starbucks. Almost immediately I got a message back asking for the address. I told them they'd find it. It was just around the corner from Trevor's house.

      Once we had finished our Starbucks, Kian suggested we go back to Trevor's. "Not yet," I told Kian, "I texted my friends and told them to meet us here, so they should be here any min-" I was cut off by two loud shriek/squeals that I recognized right away. "Rosy, Tori!" I ran over to hug them, "I've only bren gone for a day." "No, that's not why we screamed, girl!" Tori said, frightening me. "Oh. My. God," Rosy said slowly, followed by a loud and quick, "OMG ITS O2L!!!!!!!!!!!" "Ah, so that's why," I exclaimed. "Oh, God, they're even sexier in person," Tori told me as I noticed Rosy had already sat down next to Sam. "Aw!" I thought to myself, "Sam's blushing even more than normal!" Apparently, Tori had noticed, too, because she asked me, "Do you have your eye on anyone in the group?" "Yeah," I answered reluctantly. "Ooh, who?" she asked. "Connor, and I think he might like me, but I'm really not sure. I slept next to him last night and he had his shirt off," I told her. Her mouth fell open. "You lucky bitch!" she whispered as she playfully slapped my arm.

      We sat down and started to introduce the guys to my friends. I saw Tori glance over at Trevor every so often. She has a bit more trouble communicating her feelings than Rosy. So I made sure I did this right. "Guys, this is my friend, Rosemary, but I call her Rosy. Sam, I see you guys have already met." They both looked up at me, then at each other, then back at me and giggled. "And this is my friend, Tori." I stepped on Trevor's foot lightly under the table bucause he was on Twitter, and I wanted to make sure he knew her. He threw me a "wtf was that for" look, but I could tell he was really looking at Tori out of the corner of his eye. I gave him a "what are you waiting for" face, so he reached for her hand, tapped her knuckle, and mouthed "hi" and smiled, as Tori did the same back.

      Once everyone knew everyone, Connor drove us back home and we had another karaoke-Arizina session. This time, it was boys vs. girls. Kian served as the judge, and to make the teams even, we brought Jc over on our side. We made Kian judge because we knew he'd play fair. It was more Me against Connor, Tori against Trevor, Rosy against Sam, and Jc against Ricky, even though we were still on teams. We were just kind of trying to dis our opponent.

      Our team won, though. I gave Connor a hug from behind by jumping on him so he could give me a piggyback ride around the backyard. He started running and I squealed. It had been a fun day so far, and it was going to get better. I whispered something in his ear and he nodded in agreement. "Connor, can you take some of the guys in your car and I'll take some in mine?" I asked. "Yeah," he answered. "Should the guys get their boards?" "Yeah, great idea!" I told him. He whispered to them to get their boards from the garage. Tori and Rosy just stared in confusion as I grinned at them. Connor and I got in our cars while the others followed. We drove for about a half an hour until it was getting dark out. We got out of our cars and stood in front of the Hollywood sign. Connor grabbed my hand and pulled me away from where I was standing and next to him, instead. He put his arm over my shoulder, Trevor and Sam following his lead on my friends. I put my arm around his waist as we all stared at the sign and the beautiful sunset in the background. The guys got their penny boards from the trunk of Connor's car. Rosy and Tori didn't have penny boards, so I demonstrated by getting on the back of Connor's and nodded at them, Trevor and Sam, and then back at them. I wrapped my arms around Connor's waist and let out a sigh of happiness. He looked back at me, giggled and smirked. I smiled obnoxiously back up at him as he turned back around and started up, following Jc and Ricky. I heard Trevor start singing "I wanna know what love is" behind me, and I naturally started singing along, as well. Connor joined in next, along with Rosy, who sang it loud and obnoxiously, so we glared at her playfully and she got quieter, then Tori, Sam, Ricky, Jc, and Kian. It got really nice and romantic when we got to the chorus. Trevor's and my voice towered over the rest, me singing harmony, as always, and Connor's softly in front of me. He's a better singer than he lets on. "Connor," I said to him. "Yeah, Reagan?" "This is the best night of my life." "Really?" "Yeah." "Well, I'm in love with you, Reagan." "Really?" "Yeah." "Well, Connor, I love you, too." "You do?" "Yes. I never imagined I would ever meet you, let alone be here with you like this." The chorus came around, again, and Trevor motioned for me to sing. I did, even though it cut into my moment with Connor.

      We got back to the cars and packed up the boards. we headed home and I spent the night again because it was dark. Tori and Rosy stayed, as well, because if I wouldn't go out now, I wouldn't let them go. Especially not without me. We all slept with our favorite guys and in about half an hour, were asleep with his chin resting on our heads. We were just one big family already.
