Grant:
Danielle and Carlos got to their floor so it was just Alex and I. I can't believe this. I am right in front of her. God!
We got to our floor. I walked out and Alex followed. We walked to our rooms. "Well, see you around" Alex says opening her door. "Ya" I say doing the same. I walk in my room she walks in hers. I close the door and so does she. I walk in and see Nora sleeping on the couch. Jett runs up to me and starts to bark. I bend down and pet him. I pick him up and put him on the couch next to Nora.

I leave the dogs on the couch and start walking to my room. I place my phone on the bedstand and decide to take a nap. Suddenly my phone rings. It was Carlos. I get up and answer. "What do you want?" I say. "When are you gonna take Alex to see the city? I wanna come too" He asks.

"Oh right." I say "I have to do that." I check the clock and it was almost 6. "Around 6:30. Can you call Alex and tell her?"

"No I don't have her number. Why don't you just go over? You're right in front of her" says Carlos. "Ugh Fine!" I say getting up. I hang up and go to the kitchen. I get some food out for Nora and Jett. Jett runs up to the food. Nora was still on the couch. I grab my keys and phone and head outside.

I knocked at Alex's door and waited. I could hear her walking towards the door. She opens the door and smiles. "Hi...What are you doing here?" she asks surprised to see me. "I'm suppossed to show you around" I say "I didn't have your number so..."

"Oh" says Alex "Come on in" She lets me in and I walk inside. Her apartment was just like mine. Except there were boxes everywhere. "Sorry about the mess" she says "My stuff just came in early"

"It's alright" I say looking around. "Wait right here, I'll get ready" She says. She had changed out of her previous clothes and was in her sweats. I walk to the couch which seemed new and sit down.

Alex:

Grant was in my house. I had completely forgotten about the showing me around thing. I told him to wait for me. I walk to my room and text my parents which I had forgotten to do. I'm in LA. Everything is great. Srry I forgot to text you earlier.

I get out my gray cropped top and my ripped jeans. I put on my Adidas and very light makeup. I decided to take my hair out of the ponytail. I walked out side with my phone and see Grant sitting on the couch on his phone. I checked the time and it was 6:15.

 I checked the time and it was 6:15

"OK I'm ready." I say. Grant looks towards me and smiles. "Carlos is coming too by the way" He says. I nod.

Suddenly the door opens. I probably forgot to lock it. "Ok people! I'm ready to go!" Carlos says walking in. "Ever hear of knocking?" I ask. "Sorry girl, but Knocking is not a word in my dictionary" he replies going through my cabinets. "You'll get used to it" Grant whispers to me. I giggle.
