Luke.

"It's just a needle, Alexis- you let me do them to you when you were in the hospital" Ashton tried to get her to give her the relaxer, but she didn't want it at all.

She was even hiding behind Calum to keep him away from her, which showed us all that she didn't want it, because Calum was her least favorite of all of us.

"Look, I'm about to get the same one." I told her, rolling my sleeve and nodding for Ashton to do it to me.

He wiped the skin slowly, quickly doing the shot and then nodding without any reaction from me.

"Come on, I won't do the shot right now, but come sit with me, let's talk about why you're freaking out," he spoke to her.

After about thirty minutes of back and forth conversation, she finally told us why she was scared

"The new girls that always came into hell house would come in drugged, I'm scared that maybe someone will take me-" "Alexis, we'd never do this to you to hurt you, this is strictly to help you sleep because you took such a long nap and you have a long day tomorrow." Ashton told her slowly as I fought my sleep, majorly regretting taking my shot already

"Promise no one will get me?" She spoke, and I made sure to take this one.

"All four of us promise that we will never let anyone ever touch a hair on your head in a harmful way."

She instantly gave him her arm, reaching her hand out to me, letting me hold it firmly.

I kissed her knuckles as he gave it to her, getting almost no reaction.

"All done, my love" Ashton spoke, kissing the spot where he put the bandaid.

"Now, go lay down with Luke- his eyes are bloodshot, he's tired."

Alexis.

I laid my head on Luke's chest, feeling his arm pull me a little closer, which I didn't mind.

After maybe three minutes of us both laying there, I suddenly felt his grip relax.

And then I heard the snoring

But I wasn't tired at all

So I went downstairs.

I saw Michael, Ashton and Calum playing video games together.

As I reached the bottom step, Ashton looked to me.

"You okay?" He asked me.

"Yeah, I'm just not tired yet and I didn't want to wake Luke-" "that's fine, you can sit with us until you get sleepy." He spoke.

So I joined them on the couch.

I watched them play the game together, asking questions when I got too confused.

Ashton.

"So Michael died?" She asked as Michael groaned loudly, throwing a cuss word into the air over the frustration of the game.

"Yes"  I laughed lightly to her.

Her and I talked back and forth about the game.

I went on a long story about how Michael and I entered a twenty four hour gaming competition and did absolutely horrible, and as I turned to her to get her reaction, I saw her knocked out cold, her head on the armrest of the couch.

"Someone's a good listener." Michael joked lightly as I smiled to her.

"Let's go to Luke's room, my love"
