Everyone is having a great time, I managed to work out that I was, in fact, counting one of my fingers along with Jack's, in turn, making him have six fingers on one hand (only after thinking that we had a 'special connection' and that must be why I could feel what he felt while I was touching his fingers.)

Jack and Troy start talking a bit louder and suddenly Troy stands up and... Punches Jack right in the face!


"Troy, what the hell!?" I shout throwing my arms in the air.


He doesn't say anything but just shrugs and turns on his heel towards the stairs. I crawl over to Jack and place my hands on either side of his face to assess the damage.


"Hey, Princess," Jack says with a goofy grin.


"Hey,I'll be right back okay?" I gently press a kiss on his already bruising jaw and stand up to follow Troy.


"Okay." Jack slurs from where he is lying now behind me.


I quickly run up the stairs and stand in between Troy and his bedroom door before he can open it and push him back a small fraction.


"What Alex?" He says in a bored tone.


"What was that about?" I give him a quizzical glare and point towards the living room. Troy just shrugs and tries to move past me but I stop him again.


"You hurt him!" I shout


"Good," Troy says scratching the back of his neck.


I roll my eyes at his stubbornness "Why?"


"He touched my girl." And with that, he pushes past me and enters his room closing the door in my face.


Who is his girl?


...


I wake up and I'm sharing a couch with Liv and Jack, I have Liv's feet in my face while I hug them and Jack has his one arm over me while I lie with my back to him. I glance at the clock above me and see that it is only 7:30. I shake Jack's shoulder to wake him up but he just kisses my hand and rolls over holding it, I shake him again and this time he mumbles something I don't quite catch and then rolls over to look at me.


"Morning gorgeous," Jack says in a throaty morning voice that makes my breath hitch.


"Hi, sleep well?" I say and he hums in response closing his eyes again.


I hear footsteps and see Amy walk into the lounge and come to a halt at the end of the couch. "You two look nice and cozy." I give a low chuckle and mouth the words 'help me'. She giggles but stays put.


"I really got to pee," I state with a desperate look on my face.


"Good luck with that, I'm going to make coffee." She says and heads back to the kitchen.


"Sounds great," Jack whispers as he opens one eye and smiles at me.


After my heavenly pee, I go into the kitchen to keep Amy company. "Hey Ames, Where did you wake up?'' I ask wiggling my eyebrows


"With my head on Chris' chest on the floor in the middle of the lounge with an extremely sore neck, head, and back." She deadpans as she turns around to meet my gaze.


"So you like this guy?" I say without breaking eye contact.


"Yeah I guess so, last night really showed it huh?" She pours the coffee
