I decided it was time to go back home. I really missed the girls and my own bed. Don't get me wrong, I like sleeping with Colby.
I just miss my own bed. I was packing my stuff up, Colby helping. We did talk about the fans, mostly making jokes.
"You know, I got used to you in my bed." Colby pouted. "I think I did too." I pout along with him.
We were almost done with everything. I was in his sweatshirt and leggings. "How do you think Blair is gonna react?" Colby asked.
I haven't told any of the girls I'm coming back because I wanted to surprise them. "I honestly don't know." I shrug.
"You know what we should do?" Colby asked. I looked over at him to see him already looking at me. "What?" I nervously ask.
"We should get Blair to hang out with us this weekend. Then she'll like me." I look at him like he was crazy.
Colby and I had plans to go hang out at a trampoline park. "That involves sweating. You think she'll do it?" I ask, crossing my arms.
"Maybe if we invite everyone. Ivy, Casey, Kevin, Sam, and her. It'll be fun." I sigh.
I give in as he cheers. He does a little happy dance as I laugh at him.
"Why do you want her to like you so bad?" I ask curious. It didn't seem like a big deal to me.
"Because, if we're going to be friends, I wanna be friends with yours." That was sweet. I looked at him smiling.
We stared at each other for a good minute. But I broke it by looking back at my stuff. All of my stuff was packed.
I pouted as he did the same. "Here, I'll help you." He stood up and grabbed a couple of my bags. "No, Colby. I got it." I stop him.
He looked at me dead in my eyes. It was kinda imitating. "Eden, it's fine." He then walked out as I stood there.
Sam walked past, but walked back into the door frame. He had a confused look on his face. "Is that Colby's hoodie?" He asked.
I looked down at it and nodded my head. "Yeah, I was about to change." He looked at me up and down. It made me nervous.
"It suits you well." He walked away. I stood there dumbfounded. Colby came back, the bags gone from his arms.
"Here, you need this hoodie back." I tell him. I pick my shirt up from Colby's bed. He grabs my arm, turning me to him.
"You look good in it. I want you to keep it." I could he was serious. I didn't know what to say. I wrapped my arms around him.
It took him a second, but he wrapped his arms around me. He's seriously the best. He took me in when we barley knew each other.
I feel like it made us stronger. After around five minutes of embracing each other, I had to pull away.
"I'll walk you to your car." I walked out of his room, Colby following. I don't know why I feel sad.
We're gonna see each other again. Once to my car, I get in my drivers seat and roll my window down.
Colby bent down so he could see me better. "Drive safe. Text me when you get home." He smiled.
We shared our goodbyes as I pulled out of his driveway. I start to drive towards the condo.
I was nervous to see Blair, but I was happy to come back. It didn't take me long to drive home. I grabbed a bag and walked to the house.
Everyone was here. I walked inside and closed the door. I heard footsteps come from the kitchen.
It was Ivy getting snacks. I could see her smile a little. "Are you back?" She asked. I nodded my head yes as my face softened up.
"Guys! Eden's back!" Ivy yelled through out the condo. I heard footsteps on the steps. It was Casey.
She looked so happy. Blair followed shortly behind her. She looked different. Kinder. Maybe she did her makeup differently.
"Hey." She said in a softer tone. I smiled at her. "Hey, B." The next thing I knew, Casey tackled me with a hug.
"Come on, let's hang out until you have to work." She broke the hug as I looked at everyone. "Can I unpack my stuff?" She nodded her head.
I walk upstairs to my room. I sit my bag down and look at everything. "Can I talk to you?" I hear Blair ask.
I nodded as she closed my door. "Look, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have overreacted." She sat down on my bed.
"I didn't realize how much I missed up until after you left." She started to explain.
"What I'm trying to say is, I'm gonna work on not being controlling." I was kinda shocked. But I'm happy she's working on it.
"Casey told me about Kevin. I think they would be cute." I didn't know that. I was proud of her.
I guess right now would be a good time to speak up. "Colby did want me to ask if you would like to come with us to the trampoline park." I tell her.
I could see her face lighten up a little bit. "He said he could invite everyone and it could be a group hangout." She smiled, and I could tell it was real.
"You really like him, don't you?" She asked looking at me. "I mean, yeah. We're good friends." I shrug as she shakes her head.
My door opened revealing Casey's face. "Everything good in here?" Blair and I look at each other, and laugh a little.
"Yeah, everything's good." She told Casey. "Okay, whenever you're done we're all gonna watch a movie." Casey smiled, and then left.
Blair then stood up and left. I looked around my room. It had a bunch of my art work around it. I then got sad because it was quiet without Colby.
I spent the past couple days with him so not being around him is a weird feeling honestly.
But I'm happy to be back with my girls.
