You Again || lh (5SOS)

Chapter Eight

I groaned and rolled over.

Who the hell was banging at my door at 3am? I thought as I dragged myself to my door.

"You need to come now!" Dylan said breathlessly when I opened the door.

I rubbed my eyes and yawned. "Come where? Guys it's three in the morning; what are you even doing here?"

They had moved out like a month ago.

It had also been a month since Max first kissed me and he'd done it every other time he saw me.

I didn't know exactly we what were and I wasn't going to be the one to bring up the topic.

"We've got some great news!" Emma said jumping up and down.

"Couldn't this wait?" I groaned putting my head against the door frame.

"No it could not. Now put a coat or hoodie on let's go."

I looked down at my tank top and plaid pajamas shorts and frowned at her. She had to be crazy; I looked like a mess. My hair hadn't been straightened in days and it was full of knots and curls.

"Guys, I look like I walked out a horror movie and I was the monster."

Emma rolled her eyes and peeped in my apartment. She pulled a beanie off my hat stand and put it on my head.

"Grab a hoodie and put some sneakers on. Let's go!"

I followed her orders and quickly grabbed my keys and locked my apartment.

"Wait, the elevator is working?!" Dylan asked as the doors opened.

"Babe, it was working before we moved out."

"Then why the hell was I still taking the stairs?! And more importantly; why did you just let me run up five flights of stairs?"

"I thought you were trying to be healthy." She said taking his hand and lacing their fingers.

"Me? Healthy? Babe, we've been together long enough for you to know I don't do healthy."

"You look hot when you perspire though."

"I could perspire other ways." He said winking at her and bent down to kiss her.

"This is what I was dragged out of bed for? Single girl here." I said as we walked out the elevator.

"Where are we going?" I whined as I followed Emma and Dylan down the street.

We'd been walking for almost ten minutes and I was getting miserable.

"Are there places even open this late?" I whined causing Dylan to turn and grab my hand, dragging me behind them.

"Emma, I swear to God, if anyone sees me like this I'll kill Dylan."

"Anyone like Max? What's going on between you two exactly?" She asked as turned into a bar.

"I don't know." I shrugged sliding in an empty seat at the back.

"You guys make out and go on dates?" Dylan asked casually putting his hand around his girlfriend's shoulders.

I quickly glanced around the dark bar surprised that there were even this many people at this hour of the morning.

"I mean, we hang out and we kiss but we never really talked about what we were."

Dylan signalled to the counter and asked for some beers and tequila shots.

It's after three in the morning and we're going to get drunk. It was a good thing I didn't have to work today.

"You didn't DTR?" Emma asked loudly leaning forward.
