-bella's pov-

"i'm home!" i yelled, closing the front door after me.

"hey!" "yo" "hey bella!" - they all greeted me, i smiled in response.

"hey bels, can we talk for a minute?" bryce asked, pulling me to the back yard.

"sure, what's up?" i asked in curiosity.

"so uh.. i saw you sneaking out with noah yesterday night" bryce looked down.

"don't be mad-" i started before he cut me off.

"i'm not. i did some thinking and decided that i shouldn't have been so overprotective over you. after all, you're 18 now, you have your own life. BUT, if any guy breaks your heart, i am gonna have to throw a punch" he explained.

"thanks bryce. means a lot" i embraced him in a hug.

after a bit more of talking, we went back inside.

"how about we do a movie marathon?" blake suggested.

"no scary movies, please!" i begged, not wanting to feel like i'm being haunted the following night.

"fine!" he groaned, turning on the first movie of star wars.

all of them sat down on the couches.

"i'll go make popcorn" i said, getting up from the couch and walking into the kitchen.

i grabbed three bags of popcorn and threw them in the microwave.
