The next morning I wake up to a knock on the door. I look over and Bruno is still sleeping. Crap. Who could that be. I open the door. It's Eric and Phil. "Hey have you seen Bruno" Phil asks. I'm nervous because when I tell them he's sleeping in my bed they are going to think the worst of me and it's not even like that. "Uh... yeah.... he's sleeping. He fell asleep watching tv and I didn't want to wake him. Sorry." I say. "Oh thank God" Eric says. "We were worried he was missing." I smile. "Nope. He's here. Uh..... guys.... I don't want you to think anything happened because..." I'm cut off by Bruno' s voice. "Morning guys." He says I chuckle to myself. His hair is a mess. "Hey man we were worried about you." Says Phil. " I'm good guys." Bruno says. "Sorry I took over your bed" he hugs me. "No worries" I say. "We better go start getting ready for tonight." Eric says. Bruno and Phil turn to leave, Eric stays behind. "Hey, don't worry about it. I know nothing happened. I know you're not that girl."  He tells me. I hug him. "Thanks Eric, that means a lot." I say. And I was being honest. It really did. What a relief.
