The movies went on before the fourth movie and that's when everyone fell asleep. Everyone moved their seats during the movie so now I'm laying next to Jonah. Well, I thought everyone. I walked into the kitchen and turned on the lights, I walked up to the sink and looked at my reflection on the window. I had tear stained cheeks and barely pink eyes.

I turned on the faucet and cleaned my face. I was wiping my face with a paper towel when someone walked in. I turned around to see a face I wasn't planning on seeing.

"Hey Daniel" I said and smiled awkwardly. He smiled back and waved. He went into the fridge and started searching for something. He grabbed a smoothie and sat at the table, sipping on it and looking at me.

"I'm sorry..." I mumbled and looked down at the floor. "For what?" He asked confused. I shrugged my shoulders, "for being such an asshole. If you're happy with my sister I respect your decision. I just don't want anything to happen with our friendship" I said and looked towards him.

"Thank you," he said and smiled. His face then went neutral and stared at me. "How's you and Jonah?" He asked. I furrowed my eyebrows and tilted my head. "What do you mean?" I asked.

He sipped on his drink before replying. "You guys look like you're a thing. I'm not trying to say anything but it just looks like it" he stated and I nodded.

"Well I respect you for asking me before jumping to conclusions but Jonah and I do not have a thing. We are best friends. Brother and sister bond. Yea we'll kiss on the cheek or forehead and stuff but it's just friendly" I said.

He nodded, smiling before frowning. "Has Aurelia actually said those things about us?" He asked. I nodded slowly but put my hands out. "She isn't like that all the time. She's nice to me most of the time but sometimes she'll be a bit much" I explained.

He nodded and walked over to the sink, washing the cup. I sat on the counter next to him and waited for him to say something. "I'm sorry too" he mumbled. It was my turn to give him a confused look.

"I didn't believe you. I was just so caught up in my feelings. You would never make up that stuff. I just feel terrible" he said. I put my hand on his shoulder and said "it's okay. If I were you I would feel the same. As long as we're okay then I'm completely happy"

He nodded and finished washing the cup. He dried his hand off with a paper towel and stood in front of me. "Have I made the wrong decision?" he whispered. I looked at him confused and he shook he head. "Never mind. Thank you for understanding and I'm glad that we're okay again" he said and gave me a hug, a tight one.

I hugged him back just the same. We stood there for a good couple minutes. I missed this. I missed his hugs. I missed us being so close and messing around. All of the boys gave special hugs but Daniel's were even more than special.

I loosened my grip on his neck and was about to step back but stopped. He still kept his arms around my waist but let go after a couple seconds. I instantly felt all the warmth from our hug go away.

My face fell before I realized and brought back a smile. A fake one to be exact. He smiled back at me but it didn't quite meet his eyes. He started to walk back into the living room and I followed him. I sat on the couch next to Jonah again and rested my head on his shoulder.

Daniel went back to his spot on the other couch and I could barely make out his figure. "Good night Nancy" I heard him say. "Good night Daniel" I replied and that was the last that I heard before I went into peaceful blackness.

~~~~~~~~~~

Blackness. I couldn't see anything. A scream erupted and I jumped. An argument broke out in the distance. My body moved on its own. I didn't want to go but my body did. I got closer to see Aurelia, Christina, and all the boys.

"Why her?! What's so special about her?! I love you Daniel! I thought you love me too!" Aurelia screamed. Daniel shook his head. "She's the one I love. She is perfect for me. I'm not the one for you Aurelia. You have to find someone else" He claimed.

You can tell she was furious a mile away. She shook her head before she stopped abruptly and slowly turned her head. Her eyes stopped on me and she became even more mad. If looks could kill, I would've been 6 feet under the second she saw me.

"YOU!" she screeched. I looked around to see if she was lookin at anyone else. She then stomped up to me and got all up in my face. "You stole my boyfriend! You took him! What's so good about you?! You always take things away from me!" she screamed.

I backed my head away from her face because she was starting to spit a little bit but I still focused on her. "Aurelia, think about this, you know you only went out with Daniel to make me jealous. You know deep down you never liked the boys. You called them crappy, they look weird, and you're not interested in them at all" I calmly explained to her.

She shook her head. "You don't know anything!" she still argued. I shook my head. "I didn't steal him. He chose me. I was happy about you guys. You don't know anything about how I felt. I wasn't planning on stealing him at all. I was happy with his choice and who he chose" I declared.

She stared at me before she turned around and walked away. "Maybe I did make a mistake" I heard, barely audible from Daniel before everything went white.
