Alexis Porter's POV

------

"What do you wanna watch?" I ask Zoe, Alfie, and Joe. Alfie showed up at my house around an hour ago, and its still nearly 9:30 so they decided to stay and watch a film.

They wanted to watch a horror film, of course. I try to be brave during horror films, but I usually fail miserably.

I find the familiar movie case that read, 'The Devil Inside'. I've never actually seen the whole thing considering I was crying like a little baby during most of it.

I put the disk into the DVD player, as the previews began playing. This gave us time to get comfortable and shit like that.

I grabbed the remote and sat on the floor beside sofa. The sofa was only big enough for two people, which me and Joe let Zalfie have because they probably wanted to cuddle or do something coupley.

I sat besides Joe, as he scrolled through his phone. He must really be obsessed with that thing.

Zoe and Alfie were lying down, Zoe lying her head on his chest as his arms were around her waist. They were literally the cutest couple. Like let's be real, you can't name one couple who are better for each other than Zalfie.

The previews passed a lot quicker than usually, as I pressed the start button nervously. Although I sat straight, looking as brave as ever. I really hope its not obvious that I'm dying inside.

I get comfortable, as my back is rested up against the couch and my legs were crossed. Joe and I shared a large comforter, as he was basically in the same position as me. But only one of his legs were crossed.

As the film began, I could already feel the creepy vibe. I'm pretty sure Zoe and Alfie were already asleep, but me and Joe were both just watching the film quite intently.

Later into the film, there were a few parts that made me jump. I don't think anyone has noticed yet, thank the lord. By now I know Zoe and Alfie were passed out, Joe was still really into the film though.

I've caught him jump at a few parts, and considering I jump at the slightest sound, he probably noticed.

I knew a pop up was going to happen any minute, as I closed one eye and scrunched my other one up so the screen wasn't very visible. As if on cue, something pops onto the screen.

I slightly jump/twitch, causing me to pull my legs up to my chest. "You scared?" Joe mumbles, his voice a bit deeper than usual. This caused me to jump once again. He chuckles at me.

I nodded sadly, while looking down.

I feel him scoot closer to me, as his arm finds its way around my shoulder. "It's not that scary, Ale-" he was cut off by a loud sound on the television, which caused me to jump.

This time, though, I burried my face into Joe's neck. He stayed completely still and tense for a moment, before hugging my shoulders a bit tighter. This caused me to be very thankful, because now I don't necessarily have to watch the film.

I looked up from Joe's neck, and began watching the film again. I don't care how awkward this is going to be in the morning or all night, I'm scared.

I was still cuddled up to Joe, while he had his arm around my shoulder. I feel like a couple in a theater, but we're not. He'll probably make fun of me in the morning. I mean, I'm just assuming they are gonna stay here overnight because Zalfie are fast asleep and its nearly 12:00 already.

There was once again another pop up, causing me to bury my face into his neck and grip tightly onto his dark grey t-shirt. "You don't seem like the type that would be scared of horror films." he says once I look back up.

"I'm a wimp. Just like almost any girl is. I'm not much different." I tell him, trying to distract myself from the film. "Actually, you're a lot different than other girls." he says. I look up at him. "Is that bad?" I question.

He shakes his head.

While I'm looking at him, I study all of his features. He had some ache, which most guys have, he had pretty blue eyes. And I actually really liked the style of his hair. It fit him quite well.

As I did so, he studied my features. It began to get slightly awkward, so I set my eyes back on the television screen. I'm assuming he did too, but I don't wanna check and make awkward eye contact.

I felt a scary part coming on, so I leaned on Joe. He pulled me closer, which I didn't even think was humanly possible because we were already fairly close.

A silent part on the film began, as I watched intently. I honestly thought it was almost over, and there wasn't going to be a pop up. "Boo!" Joe basically shouted in my ear, causing me to jump 5 feet in the air.

He starts laughing at my reaction as I slap his arm. "You dick!" I whisper shouted. I really didn't want to wake Zoe, Alfie, or Mason up, considering he got home from work when we were filming my video.

"You really are a wimp!" he laughs. I chuckle, embarrassed that I get scared over basically anything.

I leaned my head on Joe's shoulder, as I suddenly felt tired. I yawned, cuddling up to Joe more comfortably. He pulled his knees up to his chest as I cuddled against him.

He lowered his arm to where instead of being wrapped around my shoulders, it was wrapped around my waist. He was quite comfortable, I must admit it.

I felt my eyes droop, as I yawned once again. I soon fell asleep with my head rested on Joe's shoulder.

Hey everyone. So I actually really fangirled over this chapter. The FEELS! Anyways, sorry if you feel this is rushed, and how cliche it is. I just couldn't think of any other possible scenerio that could go down between the two of them.

But yeah, byeeeeee! ♡
