Avery

I woke up next to his warm body, he was so comforting. He had his arm latched tightly around my waist as he held me close to him. In this moment, i realized how lucky Meredith really was. She got to sleep next to his warm body, and wake up next to his gorgeous face. She got to fall asleep in his arms. She got to sleep peacefully and feel protected. She got to hold his hand and run her fingers through his hair. She got to fall more in love with him every single day. I also realized how much i truly loved Kian.

"Hey!" I heard someone beating on my door. I wiped the sleepiness put of my eyes. "Avery! It's almost one, get up!" I recognized the accent almost immediately.

"Go away Corey!" I screamed mocking his accent. Kian laughed as he wiped the sleepiness out of his eyes.

"That was a good impression." He mumbled in his raspy morning voice. He stretched his body out across my bed as he made a strange noise. "Im still tired although that was the best i have slept in months." He ran his fingers through his hair in effort to fix it, but it was still a hot mess.

"You look great." I half laughed as Kian made a strange face which caused me to laugh. "Thats hot." He nodded.

"Guys!" Jc started beating on the door. "We have to film, hurry it up!" He yelled as he ran down the hallway.

"He's so special." I laughed as i crawled out of bed.

"Thats one word for it." Kian laughed as he followed behind me. "Get ready. I cant film without you near by." I nodded as Kian left my room.

I stood behind the camera along with Bobby, Corey, and Meredith. I was thinking of how fast i would have to be to push her in the pool. I hated that she just randomly showed up, she has been doing that so much lately. It is so fricken annoying just like her.

"Y'all know the deal on Fridays we get a little crazy, get a little hectic, and we make a mess." Kian said as he moved his body from side to side in his chair. Meredith stared at him intensely which caused him to lose focus. His eyes kept deverting to her instead of the camera.

Time passed, they were all standing in a pool. Their clothes started off as white but now was a collage of food stains. I watched them all three be their goofy selfs and i couldnt help but smile. "For the chocolate syrup ." Corey said as he pointed the camera to the large container of syrup.

"Yeah i like that." Jc said as he made a weird face along with a weird voice change. I chuckled but i tried to keep quiet. I didnt want to disturb the filming.

"In Toy Story, what was the name of the cowboy?" He asked. I watched their faces go blank, but only for a second.

"Woody!" Harrison yelled first then Jc followed him right after. He was quick, but not quick enough.

"Woody!" Kian said a few seconds later with a dumbfounded look plastered on his face. I couldnt help but laugh, Meredith shot me an icy glare. I rolled my eyes as i continued watching the boys.

A few minutes later, Kian was tired of the heaviness of his shirt. He pulled it off and my eyes were glued to him. "Whoo! It's a daddy coming out." Jc said in a strange voice as i giggled. Kian laughed as he patted Jc's back.

"Avery!" Kian yelled for me, i snapped out of my trance. "Come get this out of my eyes, i cant see." I grabbed a towel and started walking to him.

"I can do it baby." Meredith said as she started stepping closer to him. Kian shook his head and nodded to me.

I gently wiped the food away from his face. I was afraid i was being too harsh, and I was afraid of hurting him. "Im not hurting you, am I?" He shook his head with a small smile across his lips.

"Thank you so much!" He said as he went to hug me but i stopped him with my hand. I was not about to get food all over me.

They were all joking around. Jc barely pushed Harrison into Kian, then Kian pushed him back. Harrison slipped and fell into Jc's leg which caused Jc to fall on top of him. "Ow! Harrison!" Jc whined as he slowly picked himself up. He was being cautious of the slippery food along the bottom of the kiddy pool.

The video was coming to an end or at least filming was. Jc was telling everyone good bye but that didnt stop Kian from talking over him. "I feel thick bro!" Kian said in a stereotypical surfer voice, and he threw up his hands. Jc, Harrison, and I laughed. Meredith once again shot me an evil glare.

"Thank you guys for watching, give this a thumbs up for doing messy sauce showers part two! Finally! Three years later." Jc finished signing off then Corey shut the camera off.

"Avery!" Kian yelled for me again. "Help me get this junk off." I nodded as i walked towards the water hose. Meredith kept her eyes on us. "She likes to stare." Kian mumbled as he stared at his feet. "She will get over it." He reassured us both.

I sprayed Kian down with the water hose then he wiped himself down with a towel. "You better watch it." Meredith whispered as she pushed passed me to get to Kian. She shot me one last icy glare before i disppeared inside the house.

I sat in the living room by myself when i heard Meredith start to yell at Kian. I pulled all my attention to them. "You are seriously ruining everything we have for her! She is a nothing Kian!" She yelled as i rolled my eyes. "I can give you more than that skank ever could. "

"Woah! Woah! Avery is not a nothing, she is my best friend. She means the world to me, so shut up." He snapped back at her. "Also, she isnt a skank. She is beautiful on her own. She doesnt have to flaunt her body or act a certain way for people to love her unlike you. All you ever post is pictures of you half naked. Why? To draw attention to yourself. Avery could post a picture of her face and she would get tons of attention. Why? Because she is beautiful." Kian defended me. "Shut the hell up and get your facts straight. " She huffed before she stormed down the stairs.

She kept her eyes locked with mine. "This is your fault!" She yelled as she made her way to the door. Kian ran down the stairs to make sure everything was okay. "Have fun with the whore." Meredith yelled before she placed her hand on the door knob.

I pulled myself up off the couch. No one was gonna dog me especially not her. I kept my fists clenched tightly. A rush of anger came over my body. No body was going to hurt Kian, not with me around. I slammed my fist into her jaw which caused her to stumble. I grabbed her head as i slung her into the wall. "Get the hell out!" I yelled as she ran outside.

Goodbye.
