Boy: oh my bad. I didn't know. I'm Blake by the way. He gave you a nice smile. Cora: okay well I'm going to get going but it was nice to meet you! You left the room. It surprised you that there was a new member of sway and you didn't even know about it. You went downstairs to the living room to find Anthony sitting on the couch. He didn't see you because he was not facing your direction. You ran up to him from behind and gave him a huge hug. He jumped a little and then turned his head to realize it was you. Anthony: Cora! What are you doing here!!? Cora: oh no reason! Just visiting You were obviously lying but you didn't know if you should tell him yet or not. You both talked for a little bit catching up on eachothers lives. Then Kio came into the room and you left Anthony to go speak to Kio. Kio: hey Cora. How you doing? Cora: pretty good! but I went up to my room and Blake was there? I didn't even know there was a new member. Kio: oh yeah sorry lol. I guess I forgot to tell you. Cora: um so where should I stay? Because I have no room. Cora: I mean like I can just sleep on the couch but I just need a room to put my luggage in. Kio: are you joking Cora: jeez. I mean I guess I can just leave my luggage out here! Kio: no no... I mean your obviously not sleeping on the couch! You have to sleep in a bed. Cora: Kio! There's no beds for me to sleep in... the couch is fine Then griffin started walking into the room. He started laughing. Griffin: you think you're sleeping on the couch! Omg your insane Cora: why are you laughing. It's not funny. There's no space for me here I'll just get a new apartment. Kio: you can just stay in my— He was cut off by griffin Griffin: stay in my room babe. I'll be there for you if you get nightmares. And we can do school together because I do it here everyday anyways!
You agreed to griffin but wondered what Kio was going to say before he was interrupted by griffin. Kio looked kind of defeated but you didn't really react. You followed griffin upstairs and to his room. His room was pretty big. There was a good sized bed in the middle of the room and a desk on the right wall. His room was connected to a bathroom and had a balcony over looking the pool. It was definitely nicer than your old room.
Griffin: okay so make yourself at home. Griffin: sorry my room is kind of a mess. You can put your luggage wherever. You nodded and lied down your suitcases. You decided to not unpack. The boys assumed you were staying there for a while but you weren't sure about that. Every time you're at sway you just get yourself into trouble. You'd rather stay away from drama and even though your college life away from the boys was boring you kind of enjoyed the simplicity of it. Don't get me wrong you definitely love the boys and their company.. but you can't seem to stay out of trouble when you're around them.
Griffin left the room and you jumped onto the bed. You were about to pull out your phone and scroll through tik tok but then you realized that the guy had destroyed your phone. You hopped out of bed and decided to get changed before you went downstairs.

You walked downstairs to the living room to see what was going on. Josh announced that the hype house had invited all of us to go on a road trip to the beach. The beach was about 14 hours away. He said that they are renting a huge house on the beach and a bus to drive to the beach. All the boys were so excited. You couldn't possibly go. You had school. Cora: have fun guys! that sounds great! Kio: what do you mean? Kio: you're coming right? Cora: no I don't think so you know with school and stuff I don't think I could do it. Blake: come on Cora it'll be fun ;) He winked and looked you up and down. You blushed because he was very good looking. You noticed Kio shift in his seat. Cora: I don't know. Griff: come on cora. I'm doing it too! Cora: whatever You gave in after the boys begged and everybody went to their rooms to start packing. Griffin came upstairs. Griffin: so you met Blake huh Cora: yeah he's cool Griffin: I'm really not trying to intrude on your personal life but just in case I wanted to warn you that he's a bit of a player. Cora: I'm sure he's fine but it doesn't matter because it's not like I'm into him or like he's ever be into me. Griffin gave you a "I don't know about that" type look and then started packing. You didn't need to pack because you never unpacked in the first place.
Griffin: hey the girls have been blowing up my phone because you haven't been responding to their texts. Cora: oh yeah... I need to get a new phone because the um... the Griffin: he ruined your phone Griffin finished the sentence for you because he knew it was a touchy subject Griffin: ok don't worry we'll just get a new one on the way to the beach.
When you both finished packing you brought your suitcases downstairs and the boys started loading them into the car. It was kind of weird because Quinton was there. He hadn't said a word to you the whole time you had been there even though you've walked by eachother multiple times.
You went into the kitchen and decided to eat a banana before you left to go meet up at the hype house. You heard footsteps coming towards you and you jumped. Lots of little things were scaring you because of what happens. You felt hands place around your waist. Kio: hey hey... it's okay it's just me! You sigh and turn around facing kio. His face turns red and he drops his hands off your body. Kio: hey so I was wondering if you wanted to maybe— Then Blake walked into the kitchen cutting Kio off. Blake: hey Cora... wanna sit next to me on the bus? Kio: actually I was just about to— Cora: sure! Kio sighed and walked away. You felt kind of bad that you blew off whatever he was saying but he could just tell you later.
Once the car was packed you and all the boys got into the car and started to drive to the hype house. You were seated in the passenger seat with griffin driving. Griffin put his hand on your thigh because he could hear you breathing heavily due to anxiety. Usually if a boy out his hand on your body you would be startled and uncomfortable but with griffin it was different. He made you feel protected and safe.
