I woke up at around 7 am, with 3 hours to spare before work, I decided that I should make breakfast, I am starving. I remembered that I haven't eaten anything decent since thursday. I tied my hair in a bun and changed into shorts and some tank top before I go outside finding 3 strangers sleeping in the living room. Vader following my lead, I rolled my eyes, this dog is useless, we'll be rob and might as well let this dog hand them our money. Vader went over to the strangers and stare at them, I did too. Two well-tanned ladies share the big couch, they were too small for it, their petite body comfortable in their position. One was blonde, her hair is short and I can't deny that she's pretty. The other girl has black hair, with brown and red shades highlights on her hair, her lips were full and her cheekbones are high, she is pretty. What are these pretty girls doing in my apartment? The other guy, who they were with was at the floor, I can see Vader scooting next to him. He has an arm tattoo, and his blonde hair matches the other girl's, I bet they're twins. I didn't see his face much, I went over to the kitchen to cook whatever I find. (Which is pancakes, bacons and egg)

"I have never smell something nice from this kitchen ever." Jared said, all smiles sitting at the table. I rolled my eyes as I finished up cooking and sit across him and gave him a nod, asking him to dig in.

"So...tell me, have you announce your undying love for Garrett?" He asked, stuffing his face with pancakes, I hit him with the magazine near us.

"What are you talking about?" I asked, trying to play dumb. I know exactly what he's talking about.

"You know...don't play dumb Nike, you kissed him in your dreams and cried when you realize it wasn't true, clearly, you've been dying for some action" he said wiggling his eyebrows, I hit him again, and he just gave me a smirk. I rolled my eyes as I dug into breakfast.

"Come on Nike, don't give me the silent treatment. This romantic relationship of yours with Garrett needs to go places" he said, now biting his bacons.

"First of all, my 'romantic' relationship with Gary is lacking- or should I say nonexistent. Second, when you say relationship, feelings should be mutual." I finished, looking at my food. Afraid to see Jared's expression.

"So you do like him?"

"What? I didn't say anyth-"

"'Feelings should be mutual' so does that mean you have feelings for him?" He asked, with a wide smirk on his face. I feel heat on my face as I grab the orange juice and drink like I've been deprive of water my entire existence.

"Who's the strangers outside?" I asked, changing the topic.

"Bret, Bree and Jaime" he said, not paying attention that I almost choked on my bacon.

"Jaime?" I asked again, aware that Jared's looking at me weird.

"Yeah, why? Is everything okay?" He asked, confuse.

"What are they doing here?" I asked, tone kind of harsh, I cringe myself.

"Well they're staying in Arizona for a week, and they don't like to get a hotel, so they figured to crash in friend's houses everynight." He explained, I raised an eyebrow, so that was why Garrett was here before I sleep? Because Jaime was here? I figured that she's the one with black hair since Bret and Bree sounds like a brother-sister name.

"What was John and Gary doing here last night?" I ask, careful to say John's name first to cancel the obvious fact that I just wanted to know why Garrett stopped by.

"They were planning this some kind of road trip, you know since they'll be here for a week, and figured something to do. I think we'll start to be on the road tomorrow, just the perfect excuse to cut church" he said smiling. We? He'll go to? And worst. Garrett will come? I felt the pang of jealousy hit me in the face, as I stand up and go for my bath.
