The next day, my head was banging and I woke up to the sound of Zane screaming.

I furrowed my eyebrows as I fluttered my eyes open to see a camera in my face. I groaned and pulled the covers over my face.

"Is this really happening right now?" Zane screamed.

I heard a groan next to me and I suddenly remembered what happened last night. Heath had his arm draped around my waist, still trying to sleep as he snuggled into me.

"Zane, get out." He said.

"Definitely not! This is the best clickbait that I've ever had!" Zane said.

I threw the covers, careful to still stay covered as I shot up in the bed. "Zane, don't you dare!" I said, sternly.

He pouted. "Come on, Car! This will get so many views!"

"I said no." I said, sticking to my ground.

He sighed and huffed out a "fine".

"Now, get out!" Heath yelled, throwing a pillow at him.

"I see when I'm not wanted!" Zane yelled before leaving the room.

After that, I very awkwardly left as Heath fell back asleep. I put my clothes on and went out to my car that was still there thankfully.

The whole ride to the apartment all I can think about is how I just had my first hookup.. with Heath of all people. Don't get me wrong, I love Heath.. but we're friends and now it's going to be really weird and awkward. Plus, if David found out, I don't know what he would think. But, honestly, he has no right to be mad.

I just really need to talk to Gabbie.

I walk into the apartment and I pout at her as I see her. "Oh, honey. What's wrong?" She said, coming over to me.

"I may have done something stupid.." I say before telling her about the events of last night.

We had sat down on the couch and Gabbie looked at me a little surprised, but not judgmental. "So... Do you like Heath?" She asked.

"I mean, as a person, yes. I obviously find him attractive, but I don't know about romantically.." I said.

"Well, do you think he likes you?" She asked.

"Crap, I haven't even thought about that. What if I led him on?" I said, starting to stress even more. I put my head in my hands. "What did I do?" I groaned.

She rubbed her hand on my back as she said. "Sweetie, it's fine. Just talk to Heath about it."

I sighed. "That's what I dread about it. The fact that we need to talk about it and define it. Like I just want to avoid that it ever happened."

She smiled at me sympathetically. "Well, I mean, I don't guess you have to talk to him about it. But I think it would be better if you did."

I sighed, knowing she was right. "Thank you, Gabbie. For everything. The advice, living here, and just being a super great friend." I said.

She smiled. "Honey, Stop, you gone make me cry."

I giggled at her before we hugged. "Gab.." I said.

"Car.."

"Can you do me a favor and keep this between us? I don't really want it to get out to everybody."

"And by everybody you mean David.." she said, smirking.

"I didn't say that.." I said.

"It's okay. I won't say anything. Who else knows?" She asked.
