I hit my head against the back of the bed while I change TV program trying to find one that I like. I throw the remote to the other side of the bed and sigh. When I woke up this morning, Miss Parker, after finding out what had happened, has advised me to stay in the bedroom today while my friends went climbing. It's late, so my friends are about to arrive to end my boredom.

"Giselle, we decided to make you a surprise since you've been here on your own all day apart from the visits of Miss Parker"  I look at her confused as she walks to the door. What kind of surprise could she have this late?

I hear footsteps approaching and suddenly the boys are standing before me, looking rather happy. Reece's hair was sticking up on one side and his pajama pants hung low on his hips, but he looks handsome anyways. I don't have too much time to think since Blake jumps on me to give me a hug.

"Are you okay? Don't worry us like that again." Blake demands as he crawls to the other bed since we decided to put together the beds the day we arrived. "I ask to be in the middle"

We talk together for a while. I hadn't talked to George until tonight and I'm glad he's here because he keeps telling stories which make me laugh and his voice calms me down in a certain way, but not as much as Reece's. In the end we organized ourselves in the following way: Reece, me and Hannah in one bed and Blake, George and Amy in the other.

"Blake, you've seen this movie, what- 5 times now?" George complains. After not reaching an agreement on which movie we could see, we have written the movie we wanted on a piece of paper and put them all in a jar. And by lottery, Blake's film has won. Forrest Gump.

The brunette turns to face George, "I can't help it, it gets better every time."

You roll your eyes and decide that watching Forrest Gump yet again isn't so bad. He proceeds to start the movie and I try to get a position as comfortable as I could without drawing attention but I miserably fail as always.

"Hey Giselle, you can lean on me if you want." Reece whispers and I thank him. A grin is forming in Hannah's face as Reece wraps his arm around me and pull me into his side.

 As the movie rolls on, one of his hands traces patterns  up and down your arm.

It is a little over half way through the movie, and because I'm a bit bored, I look a bit next to me and focus on Reece's face. It's funny how his eyebrows furrow slightly with concentration and the way his gross lips would curl into smiles. God, I want to kiss him so badly. He is too engrossed in the movie to notice, and I smile to myself. But when I least expected, he turns to face me. My eyes open wide because of the small distance between our faces.

"Is something wrong?" he asks me intensifying his grip on my waist, making my eyes go to his, and I wish I had not. His eyes stop at my lips for a moment but come back to me.

"Oh nothing, I'm just a bit bored" I whisper back and he pulls me closer to listen to me better.

"Oh, so you prefer to look at me, little stalker." Not expecting that and because of the nerves, I burst into laugher. My friends, who were talking about the movie, look at me confused. Suddenly, we hear knocks on the door and Hannah ask us to stay quiet. I cover my mouth but everytime I look at Reece, he makes funny faces and that doesn't help me at all. But it stops at the moment I hear who is at the door.

"What is that noise?" I fastly pull away from Reece and Amy and I look at each other alarmed. The boys are quiet and try to question who is, I don't know how but they understand what Amy is trying to say with her hands. I crawl to the end of the bed and get up, prepared to face Miss Parker. I walk slowly to the door and smiles a bit sleepy.

"Sorry for that noise, we were watching a comedy because the girls wanted to cheer me up. I'm sorry." I try to sound credible as I scratch my arm. Miss Parker look at us unsure but smiles after.

"Just try not to be noisy, okey? I'm in the room next door." Oh fuck.

"Yeah sorry again, Miss" I shut the door and breath deeply. She almost catch us. We return to the room and tell the bad news. "We need to have a plan."

"We can sleep here" Hannah shakes her head at Blake. "Okay, that's not an option. I get it"

"What about the boys staying here for a while and then, when the coast is clear, go to the room in silence?" Amy proposes and decide that this is the best idea. I return to my site again and we continue watching the movie. Since it has started to get cold in the room, I take a blanket that is big enough to fit all three. I lean on Reece's shoulder and we were almost at the end of the movie when I noticed his thumb caressing my hand under the sheets. I try to hide my smile when he intertwines his fingers with mine but it's almost an impossible mission. I look at him to find him smiling at me. I turn my face nervously and watch the end of the movie.

"That movie was so good!" Amy cries once the boys have left without problems.

"I have really enjoyed it." I respond, trying not to think about Reece. The two of us have spent most of the movie holding hands and whispering to each other, in our own little world, but I'm sure it was a good movie from what I have seen.

Hannah pretends to throw up in the nearest trash can. "Don't act like you weren't making out with Reece the whole time."

My jaw drops. "We were not making out!"

She rolls her eyes and turn off the lights. "Yeah, don't expect me to believe that shit. Goodnight, girls!"

I hide my face in the pillow knowing that my head will be repeating what has happened tonight again and again.
