I lean on his shoulder and stay like that for the rest of the ride.

Anthony pulls the car into the parking lot and I head up to the apartment,  my arm slung around Rileys waist, his over my shoulder. I unlock the door, then we walk over to my room. He sits on a chair in my room, while I stand at my vanity. I fumble for a package of makeup wipes, and pull out the first one I can find. I pull out a wipe and begin to rub it over my skin. I immediately feel a painful sting on my face. "Ok! Owowowow." I say, jumping up and running into my bathroom. "What's wrong? Are you ok?" Riley asks, coming up to the door. "Gosh, I forgot to throw these out. I'm allergic to them. I'll be fine, it just hurts a little." I say, tossing the pack in the trash can. I take the soft towel off the silver hook and run it under a stream cold water. I quickly wipe it off my face, the icy water calming the constant sting on my face. After a few moments of tapping the cold towel on my face, I leave the bathroom.

I sit down and Riley engulfs me in a hug, putting his chin on top of my head. "I believe you were looking for these," He says, handing me my pink grapefruit scented wipes that I always use, "I guessed because you always smell like these when you take your makeup off." He says smiling. I laugh and grab the from him, then pull out the familliar smelling cloth. "They smell so good I swear!" He says, and we both laugh. I take off my makeup, then jump back onto my bed. Riley throws the remote to me, then I switch on the tv. I slap the bed next to me, and he jumps up, then hops onto the bed. He wraps his arms around me, and I lean into him. We watch tv for a while, then I turn on hairspray.

"Is it bad that I like this? Like this is one of my favorite movies?" He asks. "No, I like it, I like that you don't try to act all tough in the times when you don't need to be." I say, giggling a little. We lay there, watching the movie for a little over an hour. I slowly drift off to sleep, but just before I do, I feel a gentle kiss on my forehead.

I climb into Anthony's car, and we drive back to their apartment. Maddie and I go up the stairs and go into the apartment, then head to her room. She sits at her vanity, so I take a seat at one of the few chairs in her room. She tiredly fumbles for a makeup wipe, and pulls one out. A few moments after it touches her face, she tenses up. "Ok! Owowowow." She says, bolting into her bathroom. "What's wrong? Are you okay?" I ask. I hear some shuffling, then the sink turns on. "Gosh, I forgot to throw these out. I'm allergic to them. I'll be fine, it just hurts a little." She says through the door, then I heard her throw something away. She comes out a few minutes later, but before then I go to her white painted vanity. I grab a pink package of makeup wipes that smell like grapefruit, I think these are the ones she uses.

She comes back and sits back to her vanity. "I believe you were looking for these, I guessed because you always smell like these when you take your makeup off." I hand them over her shoulder after hugging her. She sits on her bed, then motions for me to sit down. We watch tv for a little, then she turns on Hairspray. "Is it bad that I like this? Like this is one of my favorite movies?" I say, it's true, I love this. "No, I like it, I like that you don't try to act all tough in the times when you don't need to be." Maddie says, giggling a little through a yawn. She soon falls asleep, but just before her eyes close completely, I gently kiss her forehead and let her heavy eyes shut.
