I couldn't sleep much that night. The adrenaline has rushed through my veins causing me to have a constant repetition of consciousness and slumber. The guys stayed the night at our house, but although I was hungover from the crazy night, they were much worse.

Daniel was our designated driver, yet he still slipped in as many drinks as the guys allowing me to replace his job. The sunshine was slipping into the sky as I wake up for the fourth time in the past hour. Seeing an eye across my waist, I slowly smile before leaving the space.

It took some effort, but Daniel was too tired to notice the difference. Sneaking downstairs, I seep into Kendra's bedroom to see Jonah and her cuddling. I smirked to myself hopping down the stairs to notice Allison already awake as well.

"Hey, what are you doing up?" I saw her in the kitchen pale as ever.

She opened her mouth to reply, yet no words came out instead a rush to the bathroom throwing up. I'm guessing she had sadly been touched by alcohol poisoning. I helped her as much as I could sneaking her into her bedroom trying not to disturb the others as Zach was filling the bed already.

I rolled my eyes telling him to move as she slipped into the empty space knocked out as soon as she hit the sheets. I giggled repeating myself walking downstairs noticing Jack and Corbyn on the couch sound asleep.

Soon, I was greeted by a golden sunrise with coffee in my hands. I sigh to myself relieved at the burst of calmness knowing it would not last very long. And, I was completely right.

Hours had soon passed and it was late in the morning with most of the gang up. Since I had already eaten and taken pills for my small hangover, I felt completely fine, yet I couldn't speak for the rest of them.

Jack, Corbyn, and Daniel have all been in the dining room loudly complaining about the pounding in their head and complaining about my mediocre cooking skills.

"I'm sorry I can't cook!" I threw a plastic spoon at Daniel as he chuckled.

"It's not my fault your eggs suck," he replied causing he to playfully slap his arm.

The conversation kept going until silence fell through seeing Ali and Zach giggling walking down the stairs. Jack gave him a quick wink as he rolled his eyes making some waffles. I raised my eyebrows at Ali as she shook her head at me still hurting from her hangover. On cue, Zach was there to comfort her rubbing her back telling her it will go away after a couple of hours.

And boy, was it a sight to see.

Suddenly, another new duo walked down the stairs wanting breakfast as well. I smirked once again causing Kendra to notice as she starts blushing already knowing what I meant. The conversation kept going as Daniel blurted out something that caused everyone's attention.

"Go on a date with me," he says as the rest of the gang gone silent.

I gave everyone a weird look, but directed my attentions straight at Daniel giggling a little at the joke. Once I could tell he was serious, I became wide-eyed and dragged him to the backyard.

"I'm not kidding, Sienna," he says smiling a little.

The heat from my cheeks were burning knowing that he truly liked me. It's not that I didn't want to go on a date with him - because god knew I loved the idea. It was the idea that we were moving too fast that we will crash.

"No," I said immediately covering my mouth at how insensitive I sound.

"What?" he sounded confused.

"Daniel, before you think I don't like you I do. It's just that this is so soon and I feel like we should take things slow, you know? I didn't mean to say it like that - I think I'm just dumb. Yeah, I'm stupid! It-" I was rambling.
