"Trevor! Please be quiet! I'm studying for Finals!"

"Why should I listen to you bitch?" he says as he enters the room

"Because, I'm trying to get through college. Finals are In 2 days. I want to ace them. You didn't forget that I graduate next-"

"Well maybe you should shut the fuck up and let me do whatever! It's my apartment anyway." he interrupts

I shoot him a glare. He's obviously drunk

"Just shush please! I can't study with all this shit."

He walks out of the room. I roll my eyes and go back to studying. I hear a crash from the living room.

"OH MY GOD BE QUIET!" I shout

"WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO?" He Shouts back

I remain silent but start packing my stuff into a suitcase. It's time for me to leave. He knocks at my door. I grab my 3 bags and open the door.

"What?"

"What the fuck do you think you're doing?" he asks

"Is it not obvious?"

"Yeah of course it's obvious. But you're not allowed. Put your stuff back." he says

There is a pause before I answer

"No."

I push past him and walk towards the front door.

"Where are you going?" he says loudly

"Away from you."

I go out to my car and drive away. I'll drive to Gabi's apartment. She says I'm always welcome there. Maybe I'll stay there for now.

I jolt awake. It was a dream. My clock reads 4:13. I've only been asleep for 3 hours.

Chill Taylor, Trevors not here. He never will be.

I put my head back down. Mark is sleeping peacefully. I snuggle down into the blankets and Fall back asleep.

My radio almost inaudiblly plays This Love by Maroon 5. I can barely hear it. I turn it off and look around. It's 9am. But, I don't really want to get up. I look at Mark still sleeping.

Wonder What he's dreaming about?

I slide out of bed without disturbing him and go into the bathroom. I brush out my hair and look in the mirror. I see my eyeliner sitting on the counter.

Its so tempting to take this and draw a mustache on him.

I don't but I still want to. I walk into the kitchen and make some pancakes and eggs while listening to the radio. I'm surprised that I didn't wake him up with my dorky singing. I walk into my room to see Mark still sleeping. I crawl up on the bed and shake Mark to wake him up.

"Mark...Mark! Get up!"

He stirs slightly but dosent wake up.

"MARK GET UP!" I say

He wakes up and rubs his eyes.

"Hey Taylor. Good Morning." he says grogilly

"I made you some breakfast. Come out when you're ready."

I slide off the bed and walk into the kitchen to finish making breakfast. Mark comes and sits down at the table.

"Hey you're up!"

"Yes, I was woken by a magical breakfast fairy who told me tales of pancakes and eggs in kitchenland!" he says triumphantly

"Well, she was right. Here's your reward Oh Mighty Traveler!" I set his breakfast down in front of him

"Ah yes, the Mystical Breakfast. PREPARE TO BE EATEN!" He says

I continue getting my breakfast as Mark rambles on. I sit down at the table with him to Eat.

"You really are a funny guy Mark."

"Oh! Well... I blame it on my awesomeness!" he shouts

"In all seriousness, did you sleep well?"

"Yes, thank you. This is really good by the way." he says

"I try."

It's silent for a second before he asks me something.

"What's in that box?" he asks, pointing at a blue box on the shelf.

I stand up and pull the box off the shelf.

"Cameras. I'm really into photography."

I pull out my Canon PowerShot SX50

"This one is my favorite. I really want to work at a photography place but the closest one is an hour ouside of LA"

"That's too bad. I think you should work in someplace you love." He says

"Yeah I wish. Actually, the way Me, Gabi, Emma and Jay met was in our Photography class."

"Oh, that's kind of cool. You all met doing something extremely cool." He says

"Yeah. It's too bad I cant do it for a living. It would be way better than my shitty job that I have now."

He nods and finishes his breakfast.

"Well, I need to head back to my apartment. I Have stuff to do."

"OK, well thanks again for last night. You really did save my life again."

"My pleasure Madame!" he says, bowing like a goofball.

"Get home ya weirdo!" I push him out and close the door. I smile to myself

I totally should've drawn a mustache on him.

I walk over and clear the dishes, once again playing the radio. My phone buzzes, alerting meher that I have a text.

Lunch with the group?

-Jay

I reply back Sure and go get ready. I throw on a red t shirt and black leggings. I throw on my black boots and put some simple makeup on. I let my hair out of it's lose ponytail and brush it.

We're Here.

-Jay

I shove my phone into my purse and throw on a jacket before going out to the car.

"Hey guys!"

"Hey Tay!" Jay says.

"Where we going? Usual?"

"Yup." Emma replies

Our Usual was this Italian restaurant down the road.

~~~~~~~~

"So Tay...What happened last night?" Jay asks

I look up at him.

"Well, someone broke in, I guess he picked the lock or I left the door unlocked again, and when I came out to see who it was I saw him and he pushed me down onto the couch. Luckily Mark came-"

"Um" Gabi interrupts

"Sorry, Mark and Gabi came in to help."

"And I almost shot his ass with Tay's pistol."

Everybody Laughs.

"Man Gabi, I never knew you were such a badass!" Emma Says

The lady comes to take our orders. we all eat then go home.

Sorry this was like the worst chapter in the history of The world of people. Better ones to come. :)
