     "I call top bunk." Marvin ran out of the room, probably to go get his stuff for movies and bunk bed night.

     "What's movies and bunk bed night?" Alex asked.

      "Who says you get to come?" Evan hissed back at him.

       "Guys just lay off each other, ok? It's ok Ev, since we are all going to be living together for a while now he deserves to know. After all I'm sure a lot off them will be called during this time." I said stepping between Evan and Alex. "Movies and bunk bed night, is when we all spend the night together in the funnest room in house. The room has bunk beds, and is filled with movies. We each get a chance to call a movies and bunk bed night every month, and every month you get to call it only once. We pretty much stay up watching movies and doing stupid stuff until we can't anymore, and then pass out on the bunk beds. I decided to call mine tonight since I've had a bad day, and there is no crap allowed on movie and bunk bed night." I explained looking at Alex.

     "So everyone has to be civil to each other." Connor adds looking between Alex and Evan.

"Fine." Evan says grudgingly and sticks out his hand. Alex and him shake before quickly letting go of each other.

"Ok, well I'm going to get my stuff and head over to the movies and bunk bed room. One of you guys show Alex and Ashley there ok." I walked off towards my room. Yes , I was letting Ashley and Alex come, but that didn't mean I forgave them, or that we were even friends. We would all be together for a while now, so I guessed that it was best if we could somewhat get along. I walked to my room and grabbed my favorite blanket that was soft and fluff, I also grabbed my bag of pranks and wrapped my blanket around it so that no one saw me carry it in. We always pulled pranks on each other but Marvin and I were the best and we either ganged up together against the rest, or we went against each other. Trust me when Marvin and I were against each other, something almost went wrong, one time we almost flooded the house by mistake, and another time we had to move out for a few weeks because our house was rodent and roach invested. Snapping out of my thoughts I tucked my pjs into the blanket, as well as my pillow which had both a tiny hand gun and knife, and took off for the movie and bunk bed room.

      I was not the first one to get there though, Connor was already looking through our movie selection and setting up his bunk. Since we had three bunk beds, which had two bunks each, there were three top bunks and three bottom ones. Connor and I always took a bottom bunk, and Ryan and Marvin being the children that they are alway fought over certain top bunks, and with Evan it was always a bunk near me. I heard the guys ask him the reason to that once, and he said that it just made him feel better knowing he was close enough to help me if I needed it. The first year that I was here went well until my first mission, and you could say I was never quite the same after.  At first I would get nightmare, and wake up screaming causing everyone to come running. However, after a while they stopped, with Evan help of course. Little did he know that him sleeping in the room next to me helped a lot.

      "Bree, are you ok?"

      "Huh?" I looked up startled, I had forgotten that Connor was here too.

      "You had that look you always get when you think of him" Connor said a little bit hesitant.

      I was surprised, normally I was very good at keeping what I felt away from everyone else. I had to learn that was an important thing the hard way, and that nobody was safe when people could read you like a book, "I don't know what your talking about." I said back not in the mood for this.

      "I know it's hard Bree, but you can talk about what happened. You don't have to hold it in. It might actually do you, and do everyone else some good if we talked about what happened. After all you weren't the only one he hurt." Once again Connor surprised me by adding the last part of his speech softly.

      "I know I wasn't the only one to get hurt, and we all have some sort of scar to prove it, but Connie I'm not ready to talk about it, especially not tonight." I said adding in my nickname for him to try and lighten things up.

      It looked like my plan worked because Connor cracked a small smile "How many times have I told you not to call me that?" I smiled back at him but he continued, "Bree just promise me that we can all talk about it together because it's killing me too. Sometime leaving the past in the past is not always the best."

      "I promise that as soon as I'm ready to talk you will be the first to know" I said trying to reassure him. Just as I finished speaking Marvin and Ryan came barging into the room, unaware of the serious talk that was just going on.

      "Dibs on that top bunk" Ryan said as he rushed over to the one above Connors bed.

      "Fine I didn't want that one anyway" Marvin said walking over to the other to the other top bunk, next to Ryan's, that currently had no one occupying it.

      Evan, Ashley, and Alex filled in seconds later, and Alex spoke up, "There are only six beds and seven of us, so who is going to share?" He shot a quick glance my way, but I ignored it. Like I said I wasn't forgiving them, but I was going to try and be civil.

      "Probably Ev and Bree. We just better not here and moaning and other shit coming from you two in the night, though." Ryan spoke up, and he was followed by Marvin making sex noises from his bunk.

      "Oh grow up you two." I said throwing an extra pillow at each of them.

      "Ya, the most we'll do is cuddle." Evan said wrapping is arm around my shoulder.

      "You wish." I scoffed, throwing Evans arm off me. I turned around and noticed that once again Alex was scowling at Evan, who scowled right back. "Now remember boys, you promised to play nice."

      "Ok, what should we do first?" Ryan said trying to get rid of the tension in the air.

      Just I was about to respond, Marvin cut in "How about we play some games?" Marvin was staring right at me, and I heard some of the guys groan.

      "What's wrong?" Alex asked

      "Whenever, Marvin and Bree here get into games, they practically fight to the death to win. It's sometimes scary or entertaining to watch." Connor was gesturing between us.

      "Sounds like fun, right? I say we play strip truth or dare" Marvin spoke and then stuck out his hand.

      "Game on." I stuck out my hand and we shook, earning a sigh from everyone except Alex and Ashley who had no idea what was coming their way.
