The next morning, I turn on my side as sun shining at my eyes makes my eyes slightly open. The sun shine through the curtain. I sit up on my bed, yawn and stretch. I look at the time it is 11 o'clock in the morning. I look and I didn't see Tessa and Sara on the floor but I hear the shower in my bathroom is running. I think Tessa is in there. I thought.
I tie my hair in a ponytail and decide to find Sara at downstairs.
"Sara?" I call her, walking down the stairs as I saw Sara and Zed sleeping on the couch. Cuddle in each other's arms.
"These two." I smirk and went to the basement to find Hardin.
He is sleeping on the sofa bed peacefully beside Trevor. I walk towards him and snuck into his blanket and lay on his chest.
"Hardin wake up." I whisper as i kiss his face repeatedly.
"wait.. lemme sleep a bit more. Besides we dont even going anywhere today." He groaned.
He tightened the hug, dont wanna let me go. "stay here." I hummed and lay back on his chest.
without even realise, i fell asleep again in his embrace.
<-———————————->
"yo lovebirds, wake up. it's 2pm now, what time did you guys slept last night." Tessa shake my body as I open my eyes and sit down. "Breakfast is ready" she added and begin to walk upstairs.
I look beside me, Hardin and Trevor still in their deep sleep.
"Trevvy, wakie wakie rise and shine!" I get up and walk to Trevor's side as i hug him and snuggle in the crook of his neck.
"Trissy..don't" he groaned.
"Come one, wake up!" i slap his ass and run upstairs.
I went to the kitchen to drink and see Zed sitting on the stool at the kitchen island, having a glass of water in his hand.
"Hi Sara's boyfriend." I tease.
"Oh shut up!" He giggled as he put down the glass. "what? that's the fact." I sit on the stool facing him. Then Trevor walks in the room.
"Morning Trevor." Zed greeted Trevor that still not fully awake. His nose scrunch up and rubbing his tired eyes.
Trevor raised his eyebrows, greeting Zed back. He take two slices of pancake that is on the plate and put on his own plate. He take a seat beside Zed and start eating.
"I wanna go to the store and grab some snacks. Anyone wanna come?" Tessa said.
"Lemme go, i wanna buy something too." Trevor volunteer.
"I'll go with him." I said. Tessa shrug her shoulder, "Okay then. Then I'll let you both buy"
Me and Trevor has dressed up and Tessa told us the list of the snacks. When we arrived at the store, we both start grabbed some snacks from aisle to aisle.
"I almost forgot there will be an exam in few weeks" he tells me, while looking through a drink for him at the drinks-aisle.
I groan loudly, "You gotta be kidding!"
"Yup. We need to prepared ourselves"
"This is gonna be sucks. I will failed"
He bring his arms around my shoulder and give a soft rubbed. "Don't worry, Trisha. You will do your best." He's assuring me.
I give him a soft smile, "Thank you Trevvy."

After we grab all of the things we need, we pull to the Starbucks to buy some drinks.
"Hi welcome to Starbucks, May i help you miss?" said the boy with brown curled hair that had a name tag 'Brian' on his shirt.
"Um yes hi, can I get 2 Venti iced chai latte with vanilla sweet cream cold foam and chestnut praline syrup?" I replied.
"Yes sure. And your name is?" Brian asked me.
"One for Batrisha and one for Trevor." I smile to him and look at Trevor.
After a while, our drinks is done and my name has been called. I went to the counter and grab mine and Trevor.
"Here you go miss Batrisha and here's a note for you." He smiled at me.
Clearly I'm so dumbfounded by that but i just took it and left.
"Yo someone gave me a note along with the drinks." I said as i open the car door to get in.
"A note? what does it says." I shrugged my shoulders.
"I don't know, i haven't open it yet."
"Open it!" Trevor said.
I open the note as i sip my drink. The note has a phone number in it and say 'hit me up'.
"Is he serious?" Trevor looks so pissed off by it. "Ah never mind." I said and throw the paper out of the window.
We drove off and went straight home after that.
<———————————->
"What took you so long!" Sara asked from the living as we swing the door open.
"We went to the Starbucks and guess what happened?" Trevor look at me and the guys. We all went the living room and give them the snacks.
They all had questions in their head but before they could say anything, Trevor spill the tea.
"A guy trying to hit on Batrisha!" Trevor fake smile.
"A guy!? Trying to hit on her?" Hardin raise his voice out of nowhere. "Why don't you stop him?" He asked, sitting beside Zed who has his arms around Sara's shoulder on the couch.
We all shocked by his sudden action.
"Hardin, calm down. I didn't accept him. I threw away his number." I hold Hardin's hands .
He look at me with anger fill in his eyes.
"Nothing happened okay?" I cupped his cheeks. He didn't say anything, he stand up and left the room. I just stare at the spot that he just sit.
"What's up with Hardin?" Tessa asked as they all start eating the snacks. I shrugged.
"I need to go check on him." I stood up and went to find Hardin. When I go to the basement, I saw him lay on the sofa bed with his arms cover his eyes. I close the door behind me and locked it. I took a deep breath and walk towards him, sitting at the edge of the bed beside him.
"Don't start now." His voice is deep and low.
"I didn't say anything." I said to him.
We stay quiet for a moment when I decide to break the silence. I say, "Look, I throw away his note, Hardin. You don't have to be—" he interrupt, "Be what? An asshole?"
I rolled my eyes at him.
He turn on his side, his back face to me. I sighed, "You can't always be like this, Hardin."
"Like what?" He growled.
I sighed.
"Look, you can't always be jealous like this and you cant control me." I stood up from the bed.
"What do you expect me to do? Just stay calm after i heard that a guy trying to hit on my girlfriend?"
