ELLY
   Jaden pulls away after only a few seconds, but I'm already breathing heavily. "Elly?" he asks quietly.
   "Yeah?"
   "How was that?" Jaden whispers before tucking some hair behind my ear. I look straight as his chest, avoiding his eyes.
"It-It was fine," I mumble, crossing my arms back over my chest.
"Only fine?" Jaden chuckles.
"It felt wrong," I admit, then shake my head. "I don't know."
"Elly, I promise, I wouldn't do anything wrong with you," Jaden whispers, holding my face with both hands and tilting it up to face him. "I really like you, Elly, and I want to kiss you again."
"Alright," I whisper, not sure what I'm even responding to. Jaden smiles and leans down, kissing me again. My thoughts blank, but I keep moving my lips against his.
After a few minutes, a knock comes at the door. We both pull away quickly, faces flushed. "Yeah?" Jaden calls out.
"We're starting a movie in 306!" the person calls back. "Five minutes!"
"Okay!" I shout back. I can hear the person walking away, and after the footsteps silence, Jaden pulls me back over and starts kissing me again. We kiss for a while until he pulls away to take a breath. "Jaden," I mumble. "We should probably get ready to go over."
"Yeah. Yeah." Jaden pulls back and starts nodding, then starts going through one of his bags. "Uhm, you can take the bathroom, and I'll change out here."
"Okay. Thanks." I grab my duffel and quickly head into the bathroom. I change into black leggings and an old t-shirt from a school club. I throw one of Griffin's hoodies that I stole on over it, then zip up my bag and head back out into the room. Jaden is zipping his bag back up when I enter.
"You look nice," he says with a smile, turning to face me.
"Uhm, thanks. Here." I hold his hoodie out to him. "Don't want anyone noticing anything."
I notice his face turning a little sad. "Yeah. Don't want anyone noticing anything."
I put my bag back on my bed and grab my phone and key card. "I guess we should go now."
"Yeah." He pulls the door open for me and we head out, going down the hall to room 306. I knock once we get there, and Noen swings the door open.
"Hey," he says to the both of us as we enter. I smile at him when I walk past, then go and sit down on the floor next to Chase.
"Hey, Elly." He tosses an arm across my shoulders. "How's your room been?"
"Good." I nod, looking back towards the TV where Griffin and Anthony are trying to decide on a movie. "So we haven't decided what we are watching yet?"
"Nope," Noen says as he sits down on the other side of me.
"So, how has your guys' room been?" I ask, looking between the two of them.
   "Pretty good. Who all did you get stuck with?" Noen asks, leaning his head against my shoulder.
   "Jaden," I tell them.
   "Just Jaden?" Chase whispers.
   "Well, tomorrow it'll be with Josh, too, but yeah." I shrug. "It's not that bad."
   "Let's hope he doesn't snore, then," Noen mumbles. Chase and I start to laugh.
   "Are you laughing at us?" Anthony asks, turning around from the TV.
   "No," Chase says.
   "But we might start if you guys can't figure out a movie to watch," I add. I see Chase smirking and Noen shaking his head.
   "That wasn't nice!" Anthony whines, then turns back to Griffin. "Fine, we can watch your movie. There! Problem solved."
   "Good." Griffin turns a movie on, then goes back to his spot on the other side of the room while Anthony gets up on one of the beds.
   "What is this?" Cash asks from the bed I'm leaning against.
   "The Outsiders!" Griffin says with a cheer in his voice. I start laughing.
   "You only like this movie because Patrick Swayze is in it!" I start laughing again along with Chase and Noen.
   "It's not like I turned Dirty Dancing on or something!" Griffin groans.
   "I never said I didn't like this movie," I reply.
   "Shh, I want to hear what they are saying!" Madison says. We all shut up then and start watching the movie in silence.
