I can't believe the is happening.
My day just went from terrible, to something that would only happen in a dream.
Basically I was struggling to get out of my uber with all of my heavy bags to find out I live right next to the band, why don't we.
....
I have no words.
I literally fell out of the car from being so surprised.
Anyway, I dragged all my bags to my new apartment, ready to start my new life.
I came to California hoping I could start a singing career, because that's what I've been wanting to do my whole life.

I was settling into my small house about to call the moving van when the doorbell rang. I had no clue who it would be seeing as I don't know anyone but I answered it anyway. As I opened the door, my jaw dropped. Standing in front of me were the five boys from why don't we!

"Hi um we saw that you moved in and we just wanted to come by and introduce ourselves?"
"Shut up Corbyn it's not a question"
"How about you shut up Jack. No one needs your opinion"
"Oh really?"
"Oh my god you two chill" Zach was the first to intervene.
"My name is Zach, the one with the George Washington hair is Jack, the one with the bleached hair is Corbyn , that tall dude right there is Jonah, and the one who can't stop smiling is Daniel"He said with a dazzling grin.
"Oh nice to meet you all I'm Caroline"
Jonah perked up at that name but that surprised look turned into a mournful one.
"Where are you from?"Daniel said with a tilt of his head.
"South Carolina"
" Ok well if you ever want to come over and just hangout feel welcome to. Oh if you're free now you could come over...?"
"Oh sure!"
Jack looked happy with the answer I gave him, but out of the Corner of my eye it looked like Zach was happier. Probably wasn't anything, but I blushed anyway. We walked the short distance to their house and when we got there, the view was amazing.
"So this is it," Corbyn said as he walked in the house "We can do whatever you want to do"
"I'm up to whatever you guys want" I squeaked.
What the fuck Caroline get yourself together. Don't sound so nervous.
"We should play truth or dare." Zach said with a dangerous smirk
The room erupted into a loud chorus of "yes" and we all say down on the different couches in the room. Corbyn started
"Caroline, Truth or dare?"
There was no way I was picking dare
"Truth"
"Hmmmm. If you had to kiss one of us who it would it be?"
Oh shit I did NOT want to admit this. I also didn't want to chicken out
"Um Zach...probably" I said looking down, but when I looked up four of the boys were snickering while Zach had the same smirk on his face from earlier
" Ok anyway Jack truth or dare?" I said, changing the topic.
The game went on, staying away from the topic of me and Zach even though that smirk never went away. Things were fine until it was his turn.
"Caroline, truth or dare"
Feeling as though nothing bad would happen I said dare.
Big mistake.
"Kiss me" he said
"Um what?"
"Kiss me," he said again " you said you would earlier"
"Oh um ok.."
I stood up and walked over to where he was. I shouldn't be this nervous it's just a peck. Right??
Wrong.
Right as I leaned down to where he was on the couch to give him a small peck, he pulled me on to his lap and started full on making out with me.
With other people in the room.
After what seemed like forever of making out he let me go, but whispered in my ear,
"Stay on my lap"
"Ok" I said quietly with a small shiver.
" All the boys were looking at me with the biggest grins on their faces, and Jack looked like he was about to cry from laughing so hard, but we continued the game.

Out of nowhere, the front door opened and a girl walked in.
"Zach, Baby your loving girlfriend is home!"
