Once Christina is out of the house I make sure to lock every door.

I grab the chips and drinks and walk downstairs.

Everyone stops talking and stares at me.

I look around for Corbyn.

I finally spot him in a recliner across the room staring at nothing.

"Um. Corbyn can we talk now?" I ask.

He shoots up and practically run over to me.

"I'll take these," Zach says grabbing everything in my hands.

I feel the need to grab Corbyn's hand to guide him. Should I? I decide to take his wrist instead.

I take him to my room and close the door, that way if anybody decides to come up here and eavesdrop, they can't.

He stands awkwardly next to my dresser. He grabs stuff off it then sets it down.

I sit on the bed and pat the spot next to me. He walks over.

"I know what really happened." I tell him.

"What do you mean?" He asks.

"I know it was Christina who kissed you," I reply.

"So you did see," he says more to himself than me.

"Yes I did," I answer, "and I wasn't mad. I just had to play along to make it seem like I was to get her out."

He smiles, "Wow. You're pretty devious aren't you? Hatching up this plan. You weren't really crying then?"

I frown, "I was."

He looks confused.

"It hurt me to see someone else with you even though I had seen her kiss you before," I say.

I think back to everything Christina said.

"There is one thing I have to ask," I blurt out.

He raises an eyebrow, "And what might that be?"

"Well," I start, "After Christina tried to get me to believe that you insinuated the kiss, she said you had cheated on her with different girls."

He shakes his head, "No. I didn't. I thought I loved Christina. Well I did, but then I met you."

I run my hand through his hair, "Okay."

"Okay," Corbyn responds with his eyes closed.

I yawn which causes Corbyn to yawn.

"We're old," he says, "It's barely eleven."

I laugh, "Correction, you're old."

"By a year!" He shouts.

I actually am tired. But all of our friends are downstairs. I can't just leave them.

"I'm so tired," I whine, "but we have to go downstairs and be hospitable."

"Ooorrr," he smiles, "We can sleep."

I nod. I take my phone out to text Kali.

Me: Hey

Kali: where are you at??

Me: I'm actually gonna crash cuz it's been a long day.

Kali: what about the guys?

Me: tell everyone to sleep over.

Kali: Will do.

Kali: They said yeh.

Me: cool

Kali: Night

Me: goodnight

I look over at Corbyn and give him a thumbs up.

I have to go brush my teeth so I get up. Corbyn takes my hand and follows me.

"My toothbrush?" He asks.

I reach into the closet and grab a new toothbrush.

"Hot off the press," I say, "Now you officially have a belonging in La Casa de Y/LN." We start brushing our teeth.

He looks at me in the mirror and winks. I roll my eyes.

He reaches over and kisses my cheek.

"Gross!" I say swiping the toothpaste off.

Once we're done with that its pj time.

I grab my shirt and shorts. Do I go to the bathroom or do I just change in front of him?

"I won't look," he says ducking his head under the covers.

"Its fine."

He ducks back out of the covers.

I put my pajamas on and jump into the bed.

He unbuttoned his shirt and threw it across the room along with his pants.

We lie staring at each other. Last thing I remember is falling into a trance and then leaning into his chest.
