Tessa's POV

I grabbed my purse and headed out the door to meet AJ for our date tonight. I told him I would meet him at the restaurant to avoid him getting mad at the guys in the house for no reason again.

I decided I would do just what Erika told me- enjoy myself and see if this relationship is really what I want.

I opened the door of my car and was instantly greeted by AJ in a nice dress shirt and khakis.

"Hey, babe," he said as he kissed my cheek and took my hand to lead me into the restaurant.

"You look nice," I replied.

He simply smiled and told the lady at the front our reservation and she led us to a booth in the back.

I looked down at the menu and decided I would get a steak because I was hungry.

AJ finally spoke up.

"Know what you're getting?"

"Yeah, I think so."

"Okay, good."

The waitress came back and took our drink orders, but we asked her if we could just order now since we were ready and she said that was fine.

When the waitress finally left I decided to address the elephant in the room.

"So, is there a reason you haven't talked to me since we went bowling?"

"Look, Tessa, that's why I asked you out tonight. I feel really bad about everything that's happened and I'm sorry if I made you uncomfortable... she's just my friend though and you said you had no problem with it."

"I know, AJ, but it's just that... you always get mad about all the guys in team 10 who I tell you all the time are just my friends."

"I know, baby, but that's different."

"I don't see how."

I am honestly so fed up with this.

"I have a reason to feel that way."

"And that is...?"

"You live with them."

I guess he did have a point there.

"Okay, but I need you to understand that we are all just friends."

"I know that now, Tessa, and I hope things can go back to the way they were before."

I smiled, "Me too."

We ate our food and I drove myself home.

That actually wasn't too bad of a night.

I hope AJ meant what he said and that things can go back to the way they used to be.

I walked in the door and immediately went to go take off my makeup and change into some comfy clothes.

I then got my vlog camera and closed off the vlog from that day.

Chance then walked in my room.

"Hey, Tessa, want to play Black Ops with me and Anthony?"

"What do you think?" I smiled.

He smiled as well. "I'll go get it set up"

I grabbed my phone as it vibrated and noticed a text from AJ.

Had fun tonight. Talk to you in the morning.

I smiled and went into the boys room as Chance handed me a controller.

What are friends for?
