Ellie P.O.V.
I yawn and rub my eyes as I wake up and look around…
“Shit.” I whisper out loud.
This is not my room. First, the bed is like twice the size, Second, the walls are blue and black, Third, Tess is sleeping next to me, Fourth, the pillows are… wait
…
WHY IS TESS SLEEPING NEXT TO ME!?
In a matter of seconds I get my phone from the pocket of my pants “Why was I sleeping in my regular clothes?” I say under my breath confused before clicking on contacts…

While texting with Jake I hear a yawn and a faint “Good Morning.”
Shit she's awake
“Hiiii” I respond awkwardly
“Judging by your tone I'm guessing you don't remember last night?” She chuckled
“What? No, I remember everything perfectly!”
Tess raised her brow at me
“Okay, maybe I don't remember… anything. Why am I in your bed?” I asked scratching my head
Why am I with my crush in her bed and she seems completely okay with it, what the fuck happend last night
“So-” Tess sit down on the bed and started talking
Flaaashbaaaack
Tess P.O.V.
“I'm telling you Hunter I'm not the most fond of alcohol.” I said as Hunter offered me another beer
“Oh c'mon live a little.”
“No thanks. How are things with Ally by the way?”
“Very good actually! She recently hit 100-”
As Hunter was talking about Ally’s accomplishments I happened to look to the side noticing…
Ellie
“Hey, Hello, Teeeesssss.” I noticed Hunter waving his hand in front of my eyes
“Oh yeah, sorry, what is it?”
Hunter made a smug face and nudged my elbow “I saw you eyeing that girl. Whos that? Give me all the details.”
“Were just friends oka-” I try to explain as Ellie comes up to us and slams her fist on the table
“You. Tess. Tomorrow. Me. You. Cafe. Date?” She blubbered out stumbling
what “Uhhhh Sure.”
“YEESSS.” She yelled as she stumbled her way back to the counter
“Just friends huh?” Hunter teased as I was trying to process what just happened
End of Flaaashbaaaack
Ellie P.O.V.
“And at the end I tried to get you to your dorm but about three rooms in I realized you were just spewing random numbers so I let you sleep in mine. I'm honestly surprised you're not dying from a hangover right now.”
…
My mind was currently racing with A LOT of thoughts but the biggest one of them surely was ‘I JUST INVITED TESS ON A DATE’. WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO NOW
“So I was wondering if…” her voice got me out of my thoughts “You still want to go on that date?”
…
“Yeahsuretodayatthecafetwopmthanksbye” I blur out and as quickly as I do I ran the hell out of there
On the way to my own dorm room I open my phone to check Dms with Jake
Melons & Chill 6:10am
Melons & Chill: So you got drunk
Melons & Chill: That's not good I think
Melons & Chill 6:12am
Melons & Chill: Ellie?

Melons & Chill: I'm gonna assume Tess killed your ass
Gingerbread: JAKE YOU'RE NOT GONNA BELIEVE THIS
