So there was more to that night than I knew?
I tried my absolute hardest to recall the night while I stared blankly at Billies wall in front of me, Billie being asleep. But nothing was coming up.
Billie remembered the night, but he said we made up? But then he realised I didn't remember. So what did I do? Was it something bad? It must've been if he lied to me about it.
Still nothing was recalling. I was just going to have to wait until I had one big epiphany and it all comes flooding back, but for now. The night is a mystery and my heart is in pure panic of what the fuck I did.
I was still tired, greatly actually. I tried so hard to keep my eyes open while trying to give myself some hints of what could have occurred.
Eden's P.O.V
"She left me on the sofa!" I laughed slightly to Mike and Tre who found it hilarious that Blaze had ditched me in the living room.
"So where did she sleep?"
"I'm guessing she took my bed, she didn't even give me a quilt or a pillow or anything!"
"Oh poor you," Tre sympathetically teased pouting his bottom lip out.
"Did Billie get back okay last night?" Mike asked as I ignored Tre.
I tried recalling, pretty sure I must've fallen asleep before he came in? "I'm not sure, I must've been sleeping when he got back,"
But wait- didn't I lock the door?
Blaze must've been awake and unlocked it- or something. I know I definitely locked it.
"Well he was in a rush to get back,"
"Really?" I furrowed my eyebrows slightly confused. "Why's that?"
"He started acting weird after Mave approached him," Tre joined in.
"Mave?" I repeated. "That's the one he likes- right?"
Mike nodded in confirmation. "Uhuh, he's got a huge crush on her,"
"So why did he act weird?"
"She told him she liked him, that she didn't wanna ruin his relationship with Blaze thinking it's real. I thought he was gonna be over the moon- but he walked away and begged for me to drive us back," Tre explained briefly.
Mave- likes Billie back? Isn't that why my own best friend is in this situation? Doesn't that mean- it can end? All this weirdness can be over? Right?
I quickly pushed myself up off of the carpet as Mike and Tre questioned me, but I ignored them excitedly running up the stairs to tell Blaze the news that this can all be over.
I made it to my bedroom, the door and wasn't shut properly so I pushed it open. Only to see the bed was empty. No one was even in it.
Had she gone home last night? Was she really that bored? Or maybe Billie got back drunk and something happened, she might be at home. Or maybe Billie remembers.
I turned to Billies door opening it slowly. "Billie do you have any clue where-"
Found her.
I cut myself off, realising she was here. Just with Billie. In his bed. Asleep. They both were.
I would be the biggest liar if I was to say I wasn't angry. This was all suppose to be 'fake' but yet she was happily in his bed fast asleep.
It Wasn't that I thought something had happened. It was just the fact that she knows that's my brother- that's so... weird.
I took in a deep breath ready to- sort of shout to wake them up. Before I felt something flick on the back of my head.
Spinning around in Billies door way, Tre walked past on his way to the bathroom chuckling slightly before he entered the bathroom and closed the door.
I couldn't help but giggle slightly, before everything suddenly fell into place.
I was angry at Blaze. That was obvious. But what for?
Well because I'm scared she has a crush on my brother. I'm scared my best friend has a crush on my brother.
But I have a crush on my brothers best friend.
I was scared Billie might like her back. That he would like his sisters best friend. But repeating what I had just said- I liked my own brothers best friend.
Doesn't that make me a hypocrite?
Maybe a massive one.
I wanted to shout, even realising I was in the same situation I was still angry. But I knew I had no right, so as Tre left the bathroom I gave him a smile walking back down the stairs with him leaving the two of them in peace and not waking them up to a full blown lecture about how I'm angry.

Blazes P.O.V
I walked in to the room rubbing my eyes as Billie followed behind me groaning over his massive head ache.
"There he is, the man of the hour," Tre announced looking over at Billie.
Billie gave him a scowl before leaning over and hitting him on the head.
"Ow! Dude!"
"Blaze,"
I looked away from the two of them at Eden. "Yeah?"
"Can we talk?"
Looks like I'm going into the kitchen. "Sure yeah." I held my hand out and pulled her up off the floor before we left the three boys in the room, Mike and Tre winding Billie up, making our way into the meeting room. Also known as the kitchen I suppose.
I made my way to the sink, grabbing a glass and turning on the cold tap as Eden began to speak behind me.
"I was talking earlier on, with Tre and Mike," she began. I nodded watching the glass in my hand fill up before turning the tap off and spinning to face her while she continued. "And Tre mentioned that at the party they all were at. While they were doing something- I'm not sure what- Mave went over to Billie and spoke to him,"
"Really?" I asked, sort of surprised and sort of jealous. Although I knew that whatever was next in this story I wouldn't like it, I just had to know. Even if it made me feel worse. "What did she say?"
"She actually told him that- she said she- well- she- I think she- Tre said- well-"
"-Eden just-"
"-she said she likes him,"
I paused drinking my water, it would've been super classical to spit the water everywhere- but I didn't.
Eden slowly nodded knowing I was surprised.
I couldn't act annoyed, could I really?
"Oh." I finally said, turning around as I poured the rest of the water into the sink and left the glass, before facing Eden again. "Really?"
"She told him she likes him. She wanted to get it off her chest but she doesn't want to ruin the relationship he has with you,"
"So... does that mean me and Billie don't have to..."
"...fake a relationship? I would think so? I mean, he got what he wanted? Right?"
It was sort of sad to hear that. That all this would now be over. Why didn't Billie tell me?
I let out a deflated. "Oh," before the door opened as we saw Billie enter the room.
He paused and looked at us both confused. "Did I interrupt something?"
"A-"
"-no we just finished, it's okay," I quickly said cutting off Eden. She shrugged leaving me and Billie in the room as I looked at him while he made a drink.
I didn't want all this to be over. I could feel the jealousy burning through my chest in the most painfullest way, but I didn't have a right to feel like that.
"Billie?"
"Mhm?" He asked taking a sip of his drink.
"Can we go to one of your spots later?"
"Why?"
"Please? Just for something to do- please?"
"Erm... well- yeah, yeah sure if you wanna,"

We sat down on the peer beside the sea again, under the moon that was currently only half of its full self.
I think he could sense something was wrong. I hadn't been or felt myself since what Eden said. I just felt sort of angry and upset.
Everything in the beach was barely able to be seen, I could just see Billie beside me as he looked back over at me. We hadn't really spoke since we got out the car.
"How come you wanted me to take you here anyway?" He finally spoke up, as I looked back over at him.
"So... Mave?"
"What about her?"
"Erm... Tre and Mike told Eden that she- she erm- she- well she likes you. Eden told me, I just wanted to say. I'm happy for you Billie," I gave him a fake smile which was suppose to look sincere and not sarcastic, but he didn't really look happy about it himself.
"Oh... yeah,"
"But, I have a question,"
"Which is?"
"So... now Mave likes you back. What happens with us? Well- not necessarily us but the fake us. What happens to that? We both got what we wanted, I haven't spoke to Justin since he met you. No boys really try to flirt with me anymore- I mean, you intimidated them like you wanted. But what now?"
He looked away letting out a breath, the air was cold as you could see the fog exiting his lips. He looked over the water not answering my question, but I think he was trying to think himself.
"Well... I don't know- what does happen?" He then asked me, looking back over.
"Does it end?"
"Does it?"
"I don't know... are we suppose to end it here? Like- now?"
"But," he rolled his shoulders improving his posture as he slightly turned to face me, his legs still over the peer. "I don't really want this to end here... y'know?"
"You don't?"
"No... I guess not. I mean, it's been fun. I want this to carry on... maybe just for a little bit longer,"
"Really?" I asked surprised, slightly excitedly. "Why? You got what you wanted didn't you?"
"I don't know,"
"You don't? But I thought you wanted Mave to like you back? Didn't you?"
"Well... I've been thinking lately. This whole fake relationship between us?"
I nodded as he carried on.
"It just- it made me realise that, I don't think I want a girl like Mave. Don't get me wrong- she's awesome. Well- sweet. She's super sweet and she's nice and sweet and caring but- she's not for me- y'know? I don't think I'm the right for her and she's probably not the right for her. Things just wouldn't work out and I realised there's probably someone else who's more of a better fit of my personality then... then Mave,"
"Really? What- like who?"
"Who?"
"Yeah... what kind of girl do you want?"
Then he looked away again. I waited a few seconds thinking he was probably thinking, but he wasn't going to answer my question and I could tell he didn't plan on.
The look in his eyes was focused. There was someone, but he wouldn't let himself say it.
Not tonight anyway.
