"Zoe?" 

"Mitch?" The two called into the dark, trying to find each other. Zoe kept tripping over things and muttering curses under her breath. Just then, Zoe screamed. 

"Calm down! Just me..." Mitch chuckled and got his lighter to light a candle. "Jesus christ you scared me! Don't do that!" She said, playfully hitting his arm. He just laughed again and rolled his eyes. 

Mitch and Zoe passed the lighter back and forth, lighting different candles around the room. 

"So, you like Jason?" Mitch asked, breaking the silence. Zoe stopped and turned to look at him. "What?" "You like Jason, right?" Zoe started laughing, harder than she ever had in her life. Even harder than when she told her dad he was hipster. "No no no! He's a friend. You like Savi, right?" Mitch scoffed. "Nahhh. She's alright, but I saw Jason eyeing her." Zoe gasped then giggled. "I'm not surprised. She is always getting checked out at school." "So do you, you know." Mitch commented, nonchalantly. Zoe blushed and didn't say anything.

Once all the candles were lit, Mitch jumped onto the bed, sighing. "It's gonna get really cold soon." He thought aloud. "Yep. Are there extra blankets?" Zoe asked, sitting on the bed. "Nope. We already gave all of them out. To be fair we only had one extra." Zoe then looked down at what she was wearing. Borrowed hoodie from Mitch and sweatpants from Jerome. "Will you be cold? I kinda stole your hoodie..." She giggled and laid down. "No I'll be fine. Looks good on you, by the way." Zoe blushed again and looked away.

The lights flickered yet again, in attempt to come on. But they failed. Everytime the lights would try to come back on, Zoe would jump and Mitch would chuckle at her. "Guess you're a bit lighthearted?" Zoe nodded and giggled at herself.

Mitch was browsing twitter, showing Zoe some of the funny tweets. The time was 10:30 and Zoe was already tired. "I think I'm going to try to sleep." Zoe yawned. Mitch nodded and Zoe climbed under the covers, shivering slightly. Mitch noticed, and spoke up. 

"Hey uh, you can get closer to me if you want. I don't bite or anything...." He managed to mumble, rubbing the back of his neck. Zoe blushed and looked over at him, inching towards his side. It was awkward, but a very cute sight.

"No! Stop it Jason I'm gonna fucking pee my pants!" Savannah manged to say inbetween laughs. The pair were exchanging stories and Savi just told her Jonathan story. (This is a true fucking story ok. http://thexwintersxkids.tumblr.com/post/67678809131/heres-a-true-story-from-when-i-was-a-little-kid) Jason was on the floor laughing about it, but who could blame him?

"No wait. I have a better one." Jason said once he had calmed down. "Better than the Jonathan story? Try me!" 

"Alright, one time this girl was waiting with a group of friends for these boys to come out of the bathroom, and then they started to push this girl into the boys bathroom, and they did! And she laughed so hard she peed her pants!" Jason laugh and Savannah lost it. "Oh god!" They both were in uncontrollable laughter. Adam came into the room to find out what was going on.

"Can you guys quiet down? It's like 11." He then added, "What are you even laughing about?" 

"Don't worry man. We will be quiet now." Savannah smiled and watched Adam leave. 

"What now?" Jason asked. "Dunno. You tired?" "Nope.." "I am a bit.." Savannah giggled. 

"It's really freaking cold in here.." Jason shivered. "Wanna move to the bed? Dear god that sounded dity.." Savannah said once she heard what she said. Jason laughed and nodded, both of them getting under the covers of Jason's bed. "God I'm tired now." Jason laughed a bit to himself. "Same..." Savi yawned and laid her head on the pillow. "Sorry if I cuddle you, by the way. Apparently I do that." "No, it's fine. I do too.." He blushed. Savannah turned to face him with a smirk. "You? A cuddler? Goddamn that's cute." 

Savannah had fallen asleep, but Jason was still up. It had been an hour, and Savi was staying on her side, so was Jason, but the cold was getting the best of him. He looked at Savannah and put his hand near her shoulder. It was as if heat was radiating off of her. She was facing away from him, so Jason moved closer to her and wrapped his arms around her waist. Savannah felt him move closer, and turned so she was facing him. 

"Cold?" She asked, watching Jason go bright red. "Yea.. Sorry..." He continued to blush. "No no! It's fine. I'm like a radiator." She giggled, her voice slightly groggy. "I know!" Jason smiled. Savannah smiled back and put her arms around his neck and burrying her face in his chest. "G'night." She mumbled. "Night..."
