I woke up the next morning, a green and blue checkered bedspread draped over me. I glanced around. There were cameras and a tripod next to a desk with a Mac in the room. I assumed it was Phil's room, it smelled like him. I got up and walked into the kitchen. I was still wearing jeans.

"Hey! Good morning!" Phil was making breakfast and I noticed a blanket and pillow stacked on the couch. "I could have slept on the couch." I comment.

"Don't worry about it." He smiled and hugged me. I noticed Dan in the living room too, already assuming the internet position. I said good morning.

"Good Morning. How'd you sleep?"

"Fine, thanks." I glanced at Phil. He was busy serving eggs onto three plates. Two of the plates had bacon and toast. The third only had toast.

"Breakfast is ready." He called. We all sat down to eat.

"So what happened? I returned to find you two asleep on the couch." Dan asked.

"We had a Buffy marathon and fell asleep." Phil commented. Dan glanced towards me knowing that more had happened but no one brought up what Phil and I talked about last night.

I returned to my flat and changed. My cat has been waiting for me. I fed him then went into my bedroom to retrieve my phone. I had 10 missed calls from my brother and 3 from my dad. I ignored them and brushed my hair before hearing the doorbell ring. It was Phil and PJ.

"Welcome to my home!" I announced opening the door. I had finally unpacked everything so the stacks of boxes were gone.

"I like it! Reflects on your personality nicely." Phil commented. PJ wandered around the living room, admiring the photographs I had.

"These are cool. Where did you find them?" PJ asked.

"I took them. Everything that is not a poster, I took." I had a few days to bring in my photos and get them enlarged when I was avoiding Phil and the others. PJ and Phil observed them in awe.

"This is my favorite in here." PJ said pointing to one of beach I took in California.

"I like this one." Phil was admiring one from Lake Tahoe. It was my friends snowboarding boot in binding with the surrounding mountains in the background.

"Thank you. You guys want to see the rest of the flat, since I sort of invaded Phil's already." They laughed and nodded. I led them from the living room into the kitchen and then to the first of two rooms. "This is my room." I opened the door and revealed my bedroom. The walls were covered in posters, vinyls, and photographs and I had a bookcase full of books and movies. I had my cameras sitting by my Mac on the desk.

"Check out these vinyls." PJ commented, admiring my walls. Phil was looking at my books and movies. "Your room is awesome." I laughed and we continued through the flat before leaving.

"Later you should come back here and have dinner. Dan, Chris, and Carrie can come too." I texted them letting them know, then Phil, PJ, and I headed off to the zoo.

Phil and I ended up losing Dan and PJ at the llama enclosure. Phil dragged me off to see the lions where we spent a lot of the day.

"I know it's a few months away but what are you doing over Christmas holiday?" Phil asked me.

"Not sure. Probably staying at my flat. Drinking eggnog and stroking my cat by a tree while watching movies. Why?"

"As fun as that sounds, would you like to come spend Christmas with me?"

"I'd love too!"

"My mom invited me and they said I could bring someone."

"Thank you."

I was having trouble decided what I wanted to do next and I had some written but I didn't want to post it until I was sure. I actually have the whole thing written but I will reread it like 20 times deciding if it's how I want the story to play out.
