"I just want Terry to love me." Ivy sighed as she laid down on Venus' couch. "Like Richie loves you." Venus laughed looking at Ivy.

Ivy looked at her frowning, "He's always undressing you with his intense gaze." Venus shrugged kind of agreeing.

"You don't see the way Terry looks at you?" Venus said dramatically, placing her hand on her chest as she gasped. "Oh my, you two are adorable." She walked to Ivy and pinched her cheeks as Ivy swatted Venus' hands away annoyed by her sudden change of behaviour.

"Venus I love you and all, but I have a very sensitive skin!" Ivy said as Venus laughed sitting on a stool, thinking about Richie.

"Oh no, you have that look on your face what is it? Spill!" Ivy said now sitting up on the couch as her dark brown eyes sprinkled with curiosity.

"It's nothing!" Venus said immediately as Ivy michievously smiled. "I think I know."

"You do?"

"Yeah! Obviously you're thinking about a solution to my problem!" Ivy said bluntly, oblivious, the usual herself.

Venus frowned slightly smiling, "No."

"No?" She asked.

"No." Venus confirmed as the door bell rang.

"Hello peasants!" Nathan walked inside with a smile on his face, as Venus snorted looking at the snob boy.

"Nathan it was my day with Venus get out!" Ivy yelled making Venus laugh silently. The two siblings loved Venus so much, that it was hilarious.

"I think it's my day." Richie also walked inside, as he put the grocery bags down to the floor, his hair messy and his forehead slightly sweaty.

Venus raised her eyebrows looking at her boyfriend as she bluntly nodded. "Yeah I think it's Richie's day." Ivy let out a gasp, looking at Venus.

"I feel betrayed." Nathan smiled at Venus knowingly as he grabbed Ivy and dragged her from the house, yelling to Venus and Richie before closing the door. "Protection!"

Richie laughed walking to Venus as he placed his hands on her waist. "Guess what a little birdie told me."

Venus hummed, as Richie continued.

"I think Eddie has a thing for Ivy." Venus smiled looking at Richie. "I think that's cute."

He hummed in response leaning down to kiss her, as Venus soon pulled away. "The groceries."

"Oh yeah right." He said slightly panicking as he picked up the two bags, starting to put the food and drinks inside the fridge.

"But it's cute. His last.. didn't go well, right?" Venus asked as Richie nodded. "Yeah she uhh.. she left town."

Venus nodded as Richie finished, now turning to look at her. "How about we continue from where we left from in the morning before Ivy came?" He smirked slightly.

"Richie!" She slapped his hand playfully as Richie backed away dramatically.

"What? I mean what episode we left from in The Walking Dead!" He said placing his hands int he air as Venus blushed a deep red color.

"Ooh, Johnson what were you thinking of?" He walked forward a smile on his face as Venus shook her head.

"Shut up, I want to see what happens to Rick." She said making Richie laugh as the two walked to the living room, sitting down and cuddling, just enjoying each other company and warmth as they watched The Walking Dead.
