I rolled my way quietly to the room, making sure not to wake up any of the sleeping people in the rooms around me. I made in to my room and sighed, as soon as I turned I saw an impatient Florida and curious looking Simon sitting on my mattress waiting for me.

How long were they waiting there for me?

"So, how was your night." Florida asked, looking at me with her big brown eyes. She was trying to give me the responsible parent act. Considering a lot of dogs were bigger than her, it didn't really work out.

"Go to bed, why are you still up?" I asked, she raised her eyebrows at me while Simon just looked at me.

"Did you and Ty finally become, you know. A thing." Simon asked, I glared at him for a moment while Florida giggled. He put his hands up defensively. "What? We were all waiting, Florida had a betting pool."

"Yea, and I just won the pot."

"Your twelve, you shouldn't even be thinking about these things yet." She just shrugged and smirked at me. "You should be lucky, I enrolled you to elementary school."

"Wait what!" She squeaked, a look of excitement on her face. "You didn't, you did?" I patted her on the head and smirked.

"Get to bed, we will talk about this in the morning." She nodded and almost ran to her mattress. I looked over at Simon who sat on my bed patiently. "Can we talk?"

I rolled out to the hallway with him following me. We stopped outside and he looked at me smiling.

"So?"

"So, yea. Me and Ty are a thing now." The look on that kids face was almost like he won the lottery, even though, according to Florida he lost. "What did this bet entail?"

"She bet that it would happen tonight, I bet next week." He sat on the floor and looked up at me, his grey eyes gleaming. "That doesn't matter! Please, I want to hear all the details!"

So, I told him. Well, not everything. I didn't tell him about Ty breaking down, and the extremely intimate details. Those were for us, and only us to have and know about. But he understood and squealed when I blushed slightly.

Then he furrowed his eyebrows at me for a moment.

"What's wrong?" I asked. He got up and looked at my neck for a moment.

"Wait, show me your chest."

"Hey, I just told you about me and Ty. And I am not- "

"Trust me, I am pretty sure I am gay and married. Just, do it." I looked at him and unzipped the back of my dress, showing him my whole torso and my black bra. That's when I noticed what he was staring at. A large area from my neck and my shoulder was turning the same dark blue color as my hands.

"That is wrong." I told him. "It wasn't like this when I was out with Ty." He furrowed his brows at it and sighed.

"We should get a doctor." He stated, "Do you know anyone. Anyone that could help us?"

I sat there, for a moment almost lost. Until I thought of someone, someone who I should have called a long time ago anyways.

"Care for a road trip?" I asked.

"Like old times?" He asked, his excited puppy face came back on happily.

"Yea." I sighed, giving in to his contaminating happiness. "Kind of like old times. But Ty has to stay here, one of the three of us should stay and watch over things."

"Aw, you're probably sad that your boyfriend isn't coming then." He smirked, starting to walk to his own room.

"Wow, just get some sleep asshole." I hissed, "We can leave in the morning."

I rolled back into my room and couldn't help but smile at Florida, who was already passed out on her bed. I slid out of my chair myself and laid onto my own bed, peeling the rest of my dress off and hanging it on my chair to put it somewhere else later.

I remember not even needing my rope as I fell asleep, faint sensations of Ty's lips on my body.

I could still feel his warmth surrounding me as I drifted off into a peaceful and dreamless sleep.
