Blake’s POV:

                                I did not know if I just saw a hint of jealousy when I introduced Steph to her but it sure made me smile. I drove us back to the penthouse and when we arrived, I gave the valet the car keys and took her hands. “What movie shall we watch?” I asked her while walking up to the elevator. “Hmm, Lemme see.” She said, pretending to think cutely while tapping her cheek. “Hangover!” she squealed and pulled me to the elevator.

                                I chuckled at her sudden outburst of hyperness. We reached the penthouse and she immediately ran to the DVD stash her family has beside the Flat screen. She puts Hangover in the DVD player and sat down on the couch. She looks at me, tipping her head to the side as if saying she’s confused. “Are you gonna watch the movie standing? I want my cuddle buddy now join me, you jerk.” She said patting the space beside her.

                                “I’m coming. Jeez, calm down WOMAN.” I chuckled and walked up to the couch. Before I could even sit down, she already got ahead of me and pulled me down beside her. I settled myself down at the couch and she cuddled up on me, putting her head on my chest. I slowly wrapped my arms around her waist.

                                I missed our weekly movie nights. It’s a good thing I got her back and I’m planning to let it stay that way.

                Annie’s POV:

                                Leaning on him like this made me feel safe and warm. Hangover has always been my favourite movie. Half of the movie has passed and I felt sleep over come me. My eyes slowly closed and that when darkness took me.

                Blake’s POV:

                                I felt her breathing even. She fell asleep! This girl must be so tired. I watched her angelic face while she slept peacefully. “I think I’m falling for you, Rose.” I whispered before I felt myself drown into deep sleep.

                Third Person:

                                The next day came and the first to wake up was Annie.

                Annie’s POV:

                                I was peacefully dreaming of Blake and I confessing our love to each other. The place looked so romantic in my dreams. But before we could get to the kissing, I jolted up awake. I felt someone’s arms around my waist holding me down tightly, but safe. I looked up to the sleeping Greek god. It felt right being in his arms, so warm and safe. Ann! You can’t think like this! He’s your best friend. My inner-self complained. But my heart and mind battled out, you love him. That idea lingered around her mind but was stopped due to the Greek god who is slightly waking up. “Blake, you better get up. I don’t want to be late for my photo shoot.” His reply was a groan. This made me feel a tiny bit irritated.

                                He was always hard to wake up during mornings. I should know, I’ve been coming up with ways to wake him up since we we’re in 1st grade. I slapped his chest hard and that did it! For heaven’s sake! He finally woke up. “Why’d you do that Rose?” he pouted his perfectly soft pink lips. “For your information Blakey, I’m gonna be late if you don’t get up right now. And you know I don’t do late.” I said.

                                “Alright then, why don’t you go and get ready while I make us some breakfast?” he offered. I beamed at him. “Chocolate chip waffles?” asking him of my favourite breakfast. He smiled at me and nodded.

                                I ran to my room and started to get ready. After about 30 minutes, I was up and ready.

Blake’s POV:

                                She walked up to the kitchen after 30 minutes and damn, did she look beautiful. She was sporting a purple tube top dress which reached just above her knees. Her heels were black and her purse was black with a bit of silver on them. “You look dashing my darling.” I said with my accent very well heard.  I watched her cheeks flush in a crimson colour. “Thank you.”

                                “Alright then, let’s eat so I could get ready and bring you to wherever you need to go.” I declared. We ate and after we did, she offered to wash the dishes and told me to get ready. So I obliged.

                                I walked out of the room she offered me to stay in and saw that she was by the sofa texting. I cleared my throat for her to look up.

                                “Blake….”
