We were all sitting on the new couch, Anthony and Caylus were in the kitchen with chef boy Adi. Supposedly they were cooking supper.... Grilled cheese!! What a wonderful supper (note there was sarcasm in there 😂)

Private conversation
10:30pm

At the same time all three of the boys came out of the kitchen with three to four plate of grilled cheese.
Adi: Theirs plenty where that came from.
Michael: Then keep em coming boy!
We all laughed before devouring everything. We then said good night before going to our rooms. I got into mine, took a shower and changed clothes.
Caylus: Hey.
I turned around so fast I banged my head on the wall.
Me: Ow!
Caylus: Oh sorry.
He said kissing my forehead. I waved at him in a sign that it was fine before sitting on my bed.
Me: Isn't ur room at the end of the house?
Caylus: Well.... Its in front if yours now.
Me: wdym?
Caylus: if I'd knew you were here I would've choose the room on the other side of yours.
He said pointing at Tals room. I gently laughed before saying:
Me: what are you doing here anyways?
Caylus: I wanted to see you.
Me: how sweet.
I said smiling, he came to sit next to me. He put his arm around my shoulders and I put my head on his chest.
Caylus: so you and Tal are official?
Me: yeah.....but I kinda wish we weren't.
Caylus: Why? I don't understand.
Me: It was super cool when I got to flirt with him or sneak out to see him. Now ik he's mine so there's like no danger of losing him.
Caylus: So you want the thrill, the adventure...
Me: the danger.
Caylus: you like bad boys don't you?
Me: should've seen my ex's.
Caylus: Tals not a bad boy, you know right?
Me: yeah ik....
He kissed my hair and said:
Caylus: what you gonna do?
Me: we'll see what god has reserved for us.
He smiled before getting up and leaving.
Caylus: sweet dreams pumpkin
And the door closed. I brought the coverts up and looked at the ceiling. So much has happened, and I'm no where near the finish line.

I woke up to the faint smell of burning. Quickly I got up and started walking downstairs, in the kitchen, I saw Nick, Mike, Caylus and some other dude burning stuff in the sink.
Me: what are you guys doing?!
Michael: Good morning sleepy bear.
Me: what time is it?
Nick: 1pm.
Me: oh god.
I said before looking for cereals. I heard the other dude whispering something in Nicks ear.
Nick: hey Z, want u to meet someone.
He said pushing the dude towards me.
??:Hi, I'm General...I mean Jason.
He said blushing.
Me: Hi Jason, I'm Zoe. Anthony's sister.
Jason: Anthony has a sister?
Caylus: ik man, she a hottie.
Me: ok cutie I think we got it.
I said before he kissed my forehead. Jason looked at me and said:
Jason: Nice meeting you, see you around.
I approved before he left for the pool. I quickly ate breakfast before going back into my room.
Tal: Can I talk to you?
He said coming out from the secret door.
Me: Um sure?
Tal: Did we do it too quickly?
Me: Did what?
Tal: Did we make it official too quickly?
Me: You want me to be honest?
Tal: That's what I'm asking you.
Me: Yes, yes. Why did you wanted us to be official?!
Tal: because I like you Zo. You've been the one since the beginning!
Me: Tal.....I-I-i dont know if making us official was the best idea. I've just started living again. I don't want to be tied up!
Tal: I'm not tying you up....
Me: I want to be able to flirt with you or even sneak behind my brothers back to see you! I don't want to know that you're mine. You know, Caylus actually...
Tal: Cay? My roommate Caylus?
Me: yeah, he made me realize that I want adventure, danger and the thrill.
Tal: Then I guess we aren't right for each other.
Me: No Tal....stop that's not what.....
Tal: NO! That's exactly what you meant!
He said walking away. I ran towards him and grabbed his hand. He quickly turned around hitting me in the process. I fell on the floor holding my lip.
Tal: omg Zo, I'm so sorry...
Me: leave.
Tal: Zoe...
Me: LEAVE!
He looked at me before leaving with his head down. I heard footsteps running up the stairs, I quickly closed the door and barricade myself in the bathroom. I sat on the floor, my back on the door and my head in my arms. Tears were falling down and I couldn't help but overthink.
Anthony: zo...ik you don't want to talk but as your big brother I'm here for you..I'll always be there for you....no matter what....
