*Listen to Sweater Weather By The Neighborhood for this chapter

I wake up groggily. My eyes flicker open  slowly and I look around at my surroundings. "Of course," I laugh quietly to myself "I'm in my bed." I begin to get up but I'm held back. My eyebrows furrow in confusion and I look down. I almost yelp out, so I throw my hand over my mouth. A mans arm—specifically Travis's—is wrapped tightly around my waist. My body is pressed up against his. I feel my cheeks heat up and I have no clue what I should do. Should I make him let go? No, I don't want to wake him. Wait it out? Irene no, I have to pee. As my thoughts flow through my head, I feel movement from behind me. I glance over my shoulder and see that sickening smirk across his face.

"YOU'RE AWAKE!?" I yell hitting his chest. His eyes open and a loud laugh escapes his mouth. "Dang it! I was trying to make this last!" He groans playfully. I give him I strong glare and rip myself from his grasp. He lets a groan out and lets his head fall against the pillow. I make my way down stairs.

The air downstairs is chilly. I run to our closest downstairs and grab some clothes. I rush into the bathroom. I throw a white Adidas sweatshirt on over my tank top and go out to the kitchen to make breakfast. Everyone was still sleeping, which wasn't surprising—it was only 7:40 in the morning. I was a earlier bird, despite what many people would think.

After about 20 minutes of hardcore cooking,—by that I mean spending at least half of that time jamming out to TØP with my wireless headphones—I finally finished making a fruit salad for everyone. As much as I loved the classic pancakes and bacon breakfast, I wasn't feeling it today. Plus this fruit salad looked bomb.

"Aw, you made me food?" Aphmau sighs happily. Her voice is raspy, understandably so, she just woke up. I smiled at her. "Yes I did. Fruit salad." Aphmau's eyes light up. "Yummy! You know that's one of my favorites!" She exclaims. I laugh and give her a bowl. "Dig in, Sweetheart." I chuckle as she loads fruit onto her bowl. The rest of our friends slowly start to wake up as the hear Aphmau's constant talking.

"It's soooo good Katelyn! How did you even make this so tasty?!" She mumbles through a full mouth. "Aph, babe, she bought the fruit and cut it up. It's not like she grew it." Aaron mumbles, hugging her from behind. Aphmau giggles. "Well duh, silly. I knew that. But—" "Stop asking questions and eat your food." Aaron shoves the spoon of fruit into her mouth. I laugh and Aphmau hits Aaron on the chest, her cheeks flushing.

I feel a pair of arms wrap around my waist. "Heyyyy Katelyn..." Travis mumbles into my ear. I smile and push him off. "I don't want to have to punch you so early in the morning, so take this grace period as your warning." I warn him. He shrugs and kisses my cheek. I turn and slug him hard in the face. He lets a small yelp out but covers it up its a cough quickly. "Psh...that was nothing..." He fakes a normal voice. I raise a eyebrow. "Oh really?" I hit him as hard as I possibly could in his upper torso. He cries out as he topples over, falling onto his butt.

"You should bite your tongue next time." I say smugly. He smirks as he gets up. "Message received." He laughs.

After breakfast everyone goes home—Kawaii-Chan goes to Dante's for a study date (if that's what you wanna call it *wink* *wink*), and Aphmau heads to Aaron's for a Disney movie marathon. But then, stupid Travis just has to stay home with me.

"Please, just go home..." "Sorry, no can do Cutie. I'm gonna have way to much fun being alone with you..." "Travis!" I yell at him. He laughs. "You're fun to mess with, Cutie." He smiles, stepping closer. My heart immediately starts beating faster. He takes another step, and then another. Then he's standing in front of me, his hands gripping both of my thighs. "W-what are you doing?" I ask shakily. He laughs slightly. "Jump up, Cutie." He whispers. Without hesitation, I do as he says. I wrap my legs around his torso.

He tried to kiss me instantly. I turned away, rejecting it. He sighed quietly. "Why won't you just love me already?" Travis whines, pressing is forehead against mine. His grip was tight on my waist and I could feel my legs shaking as they wrapped around his torso. "S-stop being such a flipping dork..." I mutter.

I grab his face and kiss him. He kissed me back, obviously. I curse myself internally for being such a sucker for this player act of his. But it was so hard not to resist it. He was being such a dork. And Irene only knows how much I love dorks.
