Ashley's POV: 

It was about a week later since the whole bar incident, and I was finally starting to feel better. Mitch and I finally started to spend some time apart so we wouldn't just be keeping each other sick. I haven't seen him for five days, and I was starting to really miss him. I've been able to record and upload some videos to be somewhat productive, but I swear I'm going insane from being cooped up in the house all day. I need to get out.

Jerome's POV: 

Louise was finally here, and she was going to be staying for the rest of the summer until she had to go back to Jersey. The guys liked her, so no one minded that she was staying at the house for the remainder of time she was here. 

We sit on my bed together now, me at the end and her by my pillows. I had just woken up a while ago from a nap.

"Hey Jerome," she says, smiling a bit. "what time is it?" I'm a little confused, knowing she had her phone right in her hands for her to check, but I was prepared to answer her anyway.

"It's..." I start, but when I look down to check my watch, I see it isn't there. 

"Hey, where's my watch?" I ask, looking up at her incredulously. 

"Oh, did you mean this?" she says, holding it up and smiling mischievously. I laugh and hold my hand out.

"Yes, that would be it. Now give it back." I say, but she just shakes her head.

"Yeah, I don't think so. I actually kind of like this watch, so...I'll just take it." she says, laying it across her wrist. I look to see if she's serious, and when she continues to put it on, I pounce. She's taken by surprise, but she still manages to keep the watch out of my reach. I'm on top of her, and she uses her feet and free hand to keep me at a distance. 

"It's mine!" she giggles, trying to sit up to get away. She tries to move her leg, and I use that as an advantage to push it down and pin her with one hand.

"Yeah, that's about quarter passed not happening." I say between breaths before using my other hand to pull my watch out of her hand. I move my hands from where I was pinning her arm and legs, and move them to her sides. I lean down and kiss her and she giggles a little when I pull away. She grabs my neck and pulls me forward again, into another kiss. I pull her closer, loosening my grip on my watch so I can touch her waist. She runs her fingers through my hair and I drop the watch all together. Just then, I hear footsteps, but Louise and I don't pull away in time for when Mitch opens the door, then immediately closing it as he sees the position we're in. I look up at Louise's face, which is turning a deep shade of red, and I'm sure mine is too.

"Well..." I say, rolling off her. "That was awkward." She nods, and we sit there for a minute in silence.

"Do you want to..?" I trail off, looking at her. She shrugs.

"Why not?" she says, smiling, and we resume as if nothing had happened.

MItch's POV: 

I felt pretty awkward walking in on Louise and Jerome sucking face. I had wanted to ask Jerome if we should go out tonight, but I had no idea Louise was in there with him. Now I know how Jerome must've felt when he walked in on Ashley and I. I haven't seen Ashley in five days, and I actually wanted to bring her with us tonight so she and Louise could finally meet. I'm missing Ashley already as it is, but seeing Jerome and Louise kind of made me miss her even more.

M: How are you feeling? I text. Her reply is almost immediate.

A: Much better, although a feel super cooped up in here >.< 

M: Then why don't we go out tonight? If you're well enough, of course. 

A: Actually I am. I miss you anyway, so why not? :) But isn't Louise here now? I still haven't met her. 

M: Yes she is, but I thought we could have a sort of double-date or something :) 

A: I'd love to :) as long as you do most of the talking. You know I'm bad at talking to people ;-;

M: You're not bad at talking to me :) 

A: Yeah but that's different because you know me. Still, I don't get how we even became friends in the first place, much less you falling in love with me. Words and I never seem to get along XD 

M: Well, there are other qualities about a person other than the words that come out of your mouth. 

A: True, but you still have to do most of the talking XD

M: Fine, you can just stand there and look pretty. Deal? 

A: I might be able to manage that. Deal :) So I'll see you tonight?

M: Yup. See you then <3 

I put my phone away and get off the couch, feeling a little lighter knowing what the evening had in store.
