I woke up in a state of panic. My nightmare was terrible. 'I'm going to fucking kill you!' That's what stood out. If I went back to him, he definitely would. I take deep breaths making sure I calmed down before I sat up not wanting to pass out.

      After a few long sets of breaths, I sat up on a bed looking all around. The room is not something I don't recognize. As I take in my surroundings, I smell food. My stomach starts to grumble. I didn't eat anything other than the ice cream Awsten got for us. I sit up stretching, taking note on how sore my body is. 

      I push the blankets off and swing my legs to the side of the bed. Before I look to find the kitchen, I had to find the bathroom. The bathroom was thankfully across from the bedroom I was in.

      When I was finished, I walked through the hall trying to find the kitchen. I hear whistling to a song I didn't recognize. I follow the sound and recognized where I was at. I was almost to the living room. I stop in my tracks as I hear an unfamiliar voice speak.

      "Hey, Aws. When is breakfast going to be done?" the man said. The whistling stopped.

      "In about five minutes." Awsten said back. 

      I looked down the hall and see two doorways. I know one of them is to the living room, so I can only assume the other is to the kitchen. I start walking when I heard the same voice stop me.

      "Um, Hello?" He was staring straight at me. He looked me up and down taking in my whole appearance. 

      "Uh, Hi." I had no idea who this man was, but he looked familiar to the picture in the hallway.  

      Awsten heard us and walked out of the kitchen. He stated who I was and who the man was. I guess his name is Otto. I tuned their conversation out trying to take in everything. 'Maybe I should have listened to him when he was explaining living situations. Do they even like me? I bet Awsten hates me. But he barley knows you?' My brain was fighting itself so I try and go back to reality. When I did, the new boy spoke.

      "He will be here in about five minutes. He ran to the store to get orange juice."

      Awsten nodded his head and walked back to the kitchen. I followed him closely still pretty nervous of everything. 'Who was coming back with orange juice? I should have listened.' As I was stuck in my own head, Awsten cut me off.

      "So how did you sleep?" He asked trying to make conversation. He flipped the pancake, then put it onto a plate seeing as it was done. There was four plates there. I smile at the thought that he made breakfast for me too. My boyfriend would never make anything for me. Wait, is he my ex now? 

      "I slept fine thank you. Who's room did I steal?" I said trying to push back the thoughts not wanting to think about him right now.

      "Oh, you took mine. I just slept in Geoff's room. It's all good though." Just as I was about to thank him, I hear the front door close. A man I can only assume is Geoff states his arrival. The man walks into the kitchen, then stops. He looks me up and down confused.

      "Geoff, this is Morgan." Awsten thankfully saved an awkward moment. 

      Geoff shrugs, "Oh, hey." He sets the orange juice onto the counter and turns around. 

      "Is pancakes okay?"

      "Of course. Thank you so much. Here let me help you." I take two plates and walk off to the living room. Awsten is close behind me with the other two plates. I hand one plate to Otto and one plate to Geoff who thanked me. Otto and Geoff were sitting in the side chairs still watching T.V as they started in on their food. Awsten was sitting on the couch with a smile on his face. He gestured for me to sit next to him. I walked over and sat close, but not too close to the pink haired boy thanking him as he gave me a plate. The boys started a conversation, but I couldn't listen to them.
