The next day seemed to go by very slowly. I was busy working on modeling and editing so I didn't really have time to eat and it was starting to suck. The plus side is that I spent the day texting Colby and he said that he was going to bring me Chipotle. I haven't had Chipotle in a long time so I was excited. 

I decided that I should probably clean my apartment a little bit. My roommates were out doing their own thing and said that they wouldn't be back until early the next morning. They left at around 11 this morning and it was now 6 p.m. 

I had just finished cleaning the apartment when I heard a knock on the door. I looked to see who it was and noticed Colby was really close to the peephole. He looked like a shark and it made me laugh. I opened the door and gave him a hug before grabbing the food and bringing it into the kitchen.

"How was your day?" I smiled at his question.

"It was busy, how was yours?" 

"About the same, I edited a lot of stuff and hung out in my apartment all day." I laughed.

"Well at least you didn't have to model all day, I feel mentally drained." His eyes widened.

"Is modeling that bad? I thought it was fun?" I sighed.

"They just had me wearing things that I wasn't particularly comfortable in which is fine but sometimes it makes me tired." He nodded in understanding.

"Well how about you be the photographer and I be the model?" My eyebrows furrowed.

"What?"

He laughed, "After we eat we should take pictures. I will be your model and you should take pictures of me." I smiled.

"That sounds fun." 

As we ate, we continued to catch up and talk about things going on in our lives. I was really starting to like Colby and I knew that if I wasn't careful I would end up getting hurt. He was talking to me about his series on the Sam and Colby channel where they were in Witches Forest.

"Wait that actually happened?" He just told me that when we ran into each other he had ran off the path and lost his friends.

"Yeah, Sam said that he told me to wait but I didn't hear it and I just kept going." I made a noise and he looked at me.

"Sorry, no I get it. When I run it takes a lot for me to get out of that zone. But I love to run and I imagine that you don't." He shook his head.

We finished eating and grabbed my camera before heading outside to my car. I got in and drove us to this street nearby that seemed really sketchy but I knew that with the lighting and the background I could get some sick pictures.

I got out of the car and told Colby to stand on the road and pose for some pictures. He nodded and I told him to be himself before snapping whatever I could get while he was having fun. After I had gotten a few I made him stand in a different area before continuing my picture taking.

After a while it started to get dark so we headed back to my apartment to upload them to my computer to see how the pictures turned out. I unlocked my apartment door and opened it to see glass on the floor and to hear fighting. I sighed somethings wrong.

I told Colby to sit on the couch before walking to Lucas' room where him and Ashley were fighting. They were so focused on each other that they didn't hear me come in. I didn't have time to react as Ashley started flinging things everywhere. The bad thing about this though is that she flung a lamp at me.

The lamp hit me in the head and fell to the floor shattering. I could feel something wet on my face and touched it to see blood on my hand. I sighed before finally realizing that I needed to shout at them to get their attention. 

"SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!!" They stopped arguing and turned to look at me before frowning.

"What happened to your head." I looked at Ashley like she was insane and I could feel my eye twitch.

"YOU. You happened to my head. You threw a damn lamp at my head and you guys are fighting about the stupidest things that I have ever heard. SO, I am kicking you out until you guys are no longer mad at each other." I grabbed their hands and pulled them to the door.

After they were gone, I turned to look at Colby to see that he wasn't there. I sighed, he probably left because of how chaotic my life is. I was wrong though. I felt a hand on my shoulder and turned to see Colby holding a wet rag. I smiled and tried to grab the rag but he shook his head.

"No let me help." I nodded and he guided me to the bathroom to get my first aid kit. I sat on the sink so that he could see my head at a better level and let him help me. After he was done cleaning my cut, I grabbed a band-aid and put it on my head. 

"My management team is going to kill me if this cut isn't gone by next week." Colby frowned.

"Just tell them that it wasn't your fault because it wasn't." I nodded slightly.

I jumped down from the sink and grabbed his hand before leading him to my room to upload the photos onto my computer. He sat on my bed looking around my room while I finished uploading the photos. As they appeared on the screen, I pointed to Colby to grab the chair in the corner and sit by me.

"Damn these look good." I giggled.

"I like the ones with this lighting and background," I said pointing to a few pictures.

Colby nodded before asking me to send him some of the pictures. I smiled slightly, "Sure, do you want me to edit any of them?" 

"You don't have to if you don't want to." I shook my head.

"Its the least that I could do since you took me away from all of the chaos for a couple of hours." He grinned widely at me. 

"That'd be great Aid, thank you." I smiled and started to look at different pictures that I wanted to edit. These were going to be epic.

Colby and I talked about certain ways to edit the pictures and after a while we were done editing. I sent the photos to Colby and looked at the time. It was 2:50 a.m. It was almost devils hour. I smirked slightly. 

"Hey Colby...?" He turned to face me.

"What's up?" I grinned like the mad hatter.

"Do you wanna do something scary with me?" He smiled slightly.

"Depends on what it is or where we're going." I laughed.

"We're going to some places near here that I heard were haunted. We have to be careful though since its trespassing and we could go to jail." He nodded.

"Yeah I'm really not trying to go back to jail." I smiled.

"You won't, I promise."

And I kept my promise...
