I call Ian and Max on a three way call once I wake.

"Rose, oh my god where are you?" Max asks.

"Um, at home?" I laugh.

"Come over?" Ian says.

"Wait you guys are together? That's why is an echo?" I say.

"Duh we're always together. How are you and Mr. Alexander?" Max asks.

"I, we kinda I guess you could say had a fight? He punched Nixon, his friend and I got mad at him yesterday"

"What! Why?" Ian asks.

"Why did I get mad or why did he punch him?"

"Both" Max says.

"Nixon and I fell on top of each other and you know how that looks. Alex saw and got all jealous. I got mad at him because like what the fuck? That's your friend, but then again he has anger issues and apparently, they fight all the time"

"Wow" Ian says.

"Drama" Max says.

"I still really like him, he just has some things he needs too work out"

"Well, I think you should forgive him and tell him that he shouldn't get jealous that easily. I mean come on?" Ian says.

"Is no one thinking what I'm thinking?" Max asks.

"No?" ask.

"He really likes you if he's willing to punch is own friend which he has known longer than you, obviously" Max says.

"Yea" I sigh.

"What? Isn't this what you wanted?" Ian asks.

"Yea, I wanted him to like me, but I didn't want him to punch his own friend over me" I sigh.

"Text me your address, I'm come over" I hang up stuffing my phone in my pocket.

The shirt I was wearing was tight and so were my jeans. Well I don't need to impress anyone. I put on an old red camping shirt with black a white shorts and I head out the door.

I arrive at, I'm not sure if it's Ian or Max house, they both sent me the address. I knock on the door. It soon opens to reveal Max.

"Hey, welcome to my humble abode come in" He gestures for me to come in. I see stairs straight ahead and the living room to my right. He leads me to the living room where Ian is sitting on the couch. His house was really nice.

"Hey" Ian smiles.

"Hey" I sit next to Ian on the couch.

"Where are your parents?" I ask.

"My parents are dead. My sister is my legal guardian. Me and Ian aren't related and we don't live together, gross" Max sits down next to Ian looking disgusted.

"Sorry I asked" I sigh.

"Would it be so bad to live with me?" Ian asks.

"Yes actually it would, you snore and your messy" Max rolls his eyes.

"Sorry I look like crap, I was wearing nice clothes at first, but I got kinda uncomfortable with them on, wanted to let loose" I shrug.

"Meh, we don't care what you look like" Max says.

"Good" I sigh.

Before we know it it's dark outside. We're all laying on the couch bed in the living room watching a movie. I check my phone to see that it's five fifty seven and I had a text from my dad.

"Where are you?"

"Ugh, I don't wanna leave" I moan.

"Then don't" Max says tapping his forehead with his finger.

"Sleepover" Ian says.

"Can I?" I smile looking over at Max.

"Of course" Max says.

I call my dad putting him on speaker.

"Hey dad, I'm at Max's house with Ian, can I spend the night?"

"With two boys? Not gonna happen"

We all burst out in laughter over the phone.

"Dad their gay" I smirk.

"Oh... That's fine honey, see you tomorrow"

He hangs up the phone.

"How could he not know?" Ian laughs.

"I don't know" Max says.

"I gotta brush my teeth, shower again, and-"

"Do it tomorrow, one day won't hurt" Max shrugs.

"Hey, who's this?" I hear a voice say. I look at the stairs to see Max's I'm guessing sister. She had curly brown hair down to her shoulders. She had on black shorts with a baggy white shirt on.

"This is Rosemary, Rose for short and she is my bestest friend" Max smiles.

"Nice to met you Rose, I'm Vicky, just came down too see what all the fuss was about" She goes into the kitchen pouring herself a glass of water.

"What are you guys doing?" She asks taking a sip of her water.

Ian turns off the television.

"About to play a game of truth of dare" Ian smirks.

"I'm in" Vicky sits down next to me and we all gather in a circle.

"Truth or dare Max?" I ask.

"Truth"

"Who knows the most about you out of the three of us?"

"Ian" Max smiles.

"Dude! I'm your sister? How the fuck does that make sense?" Vicky asks.

"Wait, how long have you two been together again?" I ask.

"Almost three months" Ian smiles.

"Truth or dare Rose" Vicky asks.

"Hmm, dare" I say.

"If you were stuck on a deserted island, who would you want to be with you? And why?" Vicky smirks.

"Mr. Alexander" Ian smiles.

"Who's is this Alexander?" Vicky asks.

"Nobody" I smile.

"Her little friend" Max says.

"Are you two "friends" official?" Vicky asks.

"No, at least not yet" I smirk.

"Ooo, tell me about him" Vicky asks intrigued.

"He is nice, sweet really really hot, and he likes me too. This morning he got extremely jealous because I was having fun with another boy, who's also his best friend" I sigh.

"I can already tell you two are perfect for each other" Vicky smiles.

"Your just like Max" I laugh.

"Yea, pretty much" Vicky smiles.

"We aren't talking right now, I kinda got mad at him for punching his best friend, but I can't stay mad at him, I can't. He already has to deal with his cancer, his brother being in prison, his diabetes. I don't need him worrying how to get me to forgive him" I say.

"Whoa, the guy has cancer? And diabetes?" Vicky asks.

"Shit, I wasn't supposed to tell anyone else, please don't tell him I told you" I sigh.

"Hey, my lips are sealed, I don't even know the guy"

We spend the rest of the night playing truth or dare.
