Chapter Twenty Two.

Amy's point of View:

     Waking up in the new environment is weird and I got confused for a few seconds as I just woke up but quickly became aware of my surroundings again. I lay in bed and scroll through my phone for a few minutes enjoying the quiet of the house. The air is cool and I don't think anyone's awake yet and I don't want to get up and possibly wake them. I continue to scroll through twitter and like pictures people have drawn of me and some of my friends back in Boston and Ohio pictures. I begin to get hungry and go back in forth in my head if I can be quiet enough not to wake anyone. I slip off the side of my bed and pad across the cold wooden floors to my door and attempt to open it without it squeaking and make my way down to the kitchen. When I begin to brew coffee the arms that wrap around my waist scare me at first but I soon realize who it is. "Good morning" Mark says letting his head rest on my shoulder. "Morning" I whisper turning around to peck his lips. My voice is the worst it's been all week and I can hardly talk over a loud whisper. Mark pecks my lips once more before smiling and walking over to the fridge to see the limited amount of food we have. "We need to go to the store" Mark groans and closes the fridge before grabbing a banana off the counter. "I'm fine" I shrug my shoulders and lean my back against the counter to face in Marks direction, Sipping at my coffee. "Because you can survive off of coffee" He looks to me pretending to be angry. I shrug my shoulders slightly before laughing a little and taking another sip of coffee. I hop up on the counter and Mark and I continue quiet conversation. Soon footsteps are slowly coming down the hall and Ethan pops his head around the corner "Morning" His eyes are half opened and his hair is ruffled. "Good sleep dude?" Mark laughs. "Best sleep I've gotten in awhile" He nods his head and walks over to the coffee maker and pours himself a cup. "Careful, Amy may rip your head off" Marks jokes and I make eye contact and jokingly mock him. "Good Morning" Kathryn says walking around the corner. She's cheery and has a smile on her face. "At least theres one morning person here" Ethan laughs and runs his fingers through his bangs. "I'm trying to be cheery, I can hear Amy snoring from my bedroom" She turns her head to look at me and smiles sarcastically. "I do not snore!" I strain my voice trying to yell, hurting my throat a little. "Yes you do" Katherine and Mark say at the same time. I roll my eyes and we all laugh "Well Mark rolls around and Katherine talks so" I whisper loudly so they all can hear "I know half of Kathryn's life stories just by her deep sleep" I state making the crew laugh and pouring myself another cup of coffee. 

     After sitting and chatting in the kitchen for a while we decide it's a good idea to get ready for the day. We all walk up to our rooms and get dressed. I choose my black fabric shorts with a white v neck t shirt, Tying it up in the corner on the side. For hair I do loose curls and only eyeliner for makeup. I slip my black sandals on before making my way downstairs. As I pass the door a loud knock is echoed down the long hallway. I look through the peephole before opening it. "Hey!" I smile widely before hugging Eve over her bump. "Hey! Sorry for coming so abruptly but we thought we would bring some food as a housewarming gift" Tyler says giving me a quick hug. "The best housewarming gift of them all" Mark says getting some of the bags out of Eves hands and walking down the long hall. I let Eve and Tyler walk before me before closing the door. They brought all of the essentials with a few favorites thrown in there. "This was so nice! Thank you" I try to whisper loudly so they can hear me. "No problem. I brought you some thing that may help with your throat" Eve says and digs through her purse. "Oh, Mom mode already" Mark says making us laugh. Eve pulls out a red liquid thats held in a spray bottle "You spray this in the back of your throat every morning and evening. Your voice should be 100% by next week" She smiles handing me the bottle before thanking her. "Hey who didn't invite me to the party" Ethan says walking into the kitchen. We all roll our eyes at his lame joke before laughing "Ethan when is a party made up of six people?" Mark laughs. "Those are my size parties man" Ethan laughs at himself before shrugging his shoulders. 

     After Eve and Tyler left we decided it would be a good idea to get the recording space ready before we run out of pre filmed videos. Mark had to upload and Kathryn volunteered to upload for Ethan so It was Ethan and I setting stuff up. I was in charge of organization while Ethan made sure nothing was damaged in the move and it looks somewhat back to normal like their old set ups. I hang my old shelves up by the door and put all the cameras on it and plug the batteries in the outlet at the bottom of the wall. I lean the tripods against the same wall under the shelves. Next I get all the lighting and line it against the blank wall thats facing towards the set up Ethan's making. There are no windows in the basement and It's unfinished and has and echo but before we can get more foam to hang on the wall It's the best we can do with what we got. Ethan and Mark have somewhat of the same looking background so it's not difficult to set the small space up. Ethan stands where the camera would be set up before nodding his head "I think we can officially say that the house is completely set up" He holds up his hand and I give him a high five. We turn off the lights before walking up stairs greeted by Mark and Kathryn sitting at the breakfast nook "Done?" Mark asks raising an eyebrow. Ethan and I nod our heads "We just got done uploading and I was thinking movie night?" Mark asks and we all get excited and run up stairs to change. 

     "Ethan could you please bring the popcorn in here when you come?" I whisper yell to him getting myself situated on the couch. He comes around the corner with the bowl and hands it to me "Thank ya blue boy" I say taking a piece. "No prob bob" He replies laughing. Before I can tease him about his comment Mark comes around the corner from the dining room holding thee movies "Ok pick. Herby, Tangled, or spy kids" He excitedly ask. "I love that you picked all disney movies" Kathryn says sitting down beside me. "I vote Herby"Ethan yells and we all agree. Mark slips the movie in before sitting beside me and wrapping his arm around me. 

     We don't realize how late it had gotten but as the movie ended all of us were half asleep and ready for bed. I nudge my shoulder trying to fully wake mark up. "I'm going to sleep. See you guys in the morning" Kathryn yaws and I give her a hug before she starts walking up stairs. "What about you blue boy? You going to sleep too" Ethan doesn't say anything but nods his head. I wave to him and smile as he passes by me to walk up stairs. "Mark lets go to bed" I whisper yawning. "I don't wanna walk" His voice is muffled because he buried his face in my shoulder. I stand before holding my hand out for him to grab it. He sighs and we start walking up stairs. Once we get to his door I peck his lips but he holds my waist and brings me closer to him kissing me more. "Mark we have to go to bed" I sigh touching foreheads. He kisses my nose "I know" He sighs "I love you" He whispers. "I love you too" I peck his lips once more before walking back to my room.
