"Hey" I say standing in front of Jake's house
"Come in" he  says paving way for me to come in and we both go upstairs to his room and the house is quiet so I guess that he's home alone

"I don't think Damien's coming today. Not after what happened in school" Jake  says making conversation

"Me neither. Thank you, by the way"

"For what?" He asks smirking arrogantly
Idiot

"Ugh, for defending me from that crazy ass bitch called  Lana"

"Its nothing. Besides she deserved to be told the truth"

"Yeah"

And just then, we hear a knock on his door and we both go down to get it and are both shocked to see Damien at the door

"Damien?" I ask with a face of shock "I thought you wouldn't wanna come after what happened in school today"

"What happened in school?" He says smiling as he walks in and I just role my eyes

"What's up man" Jake says as he bro-shakes Damien

"So are we gonna study or not" Damien asks

"Actually, I was thinking we'd take the day off and watch a movie" Jake says walking over to his TV

"I could really use a break" I say behind him

"Fine" Damien says following behind us "but if it ain't horror I ain't watching"

"I can't watch a scary movie" I whine

"You have no other  choice" Jake shrugs

"Ughhh"

"Damien, do you mind setting up the movie while I go get us blankets?"

"No problemo"

Jake later comes down with the blankets and we sit on the floor with me in their middle. So that  in case I scream, they'll be able to hold me down. Scary movies are not my thing.

"OMG!!! He cut her head off!" I yell for the 100th time 40minutes into the movie. And they both role their eyes. They haven't been able to enjoy the movie because of my constant screaming and jumping. Jake even suggested tying me with a rope to keep me still and Damien was in support of the idea.

"Seriously Ariana. Haven't you watched any horror movie before?" Jake complained and I just gave him puppy dog eyes and he roled his eyes and turned his attention back to the movie.

JAKE'S POV
I notice that Ariana has stopped screaming and I turn to her only to find her leaning on Damien's chest. Seems like she's fallen asleep.
Why didn't she lean on me instead
I can't help but feel a little jealous

"How about we carry her upstairs" I say to Damien but he objects

"She seems comfortable here. Let's leave her to rest here"

"Ok. If you say so" I shrug turning back to my TV. The movie is gonna end soon anyways, and we'll have to wake her up.

ARIANA'S POV
I hear too voices talking in hushed tones and I open my eyes and find myself leaning on Damien's chest. Oh my God. I quickly get up and apologize.

"Uhmm. Damien, sorry" I smile weirdly

"Why are you apologizing"

"You know... Didn't mean to lean on you or inconvenience you in anyway"

"No need to apologize Ari. You weren't inconveniencing me in anyway"

Jake scuffs

"What" Damien asks, giving him a pointed look
