It was roughly the middle of the night, and I haven't slept at all.
After everyone went to bed, I crept downstairs and just chilled in the living room.
I didn't grab food, I didn't turn the gigantic flat screen on, I just sat on the couch, staring out the window.
No one had even come downstairs within the hour or so that I've been down here, which kind of surprised me because with a house full of guys, I'd think they'd still be doing stuff at night.
Hunter, Dylan, Kyle and Noah's rooms are all upstairs, and Darren's is downstairs.
I'm not sure if his is the only one downstairs, but I know that his room is down there.
It's kind of sad though, you'd think that the leader would have the nicest, biggest and best room. But his is in the basement, so I don't know how nice it could possibly be.
No balcony, not much down there.
But for all I know, it could be the most beautiful room in Michigan.
I leaned back, looking out the window.
My phone went off, I was assuming that it was Lilli.
But when I flipped my phone over, it was Hunter?
What's he doing up?
I opened the message, and it read:
1:02am- When you wake up, text me back and meet me in the backyard. I want to talk to you about some things. Sleep well <3
I smiled, he is so much sweeter than I ever anticipated.
I texted back,
To Hunter:
1:04am- I'm awake, haven't slept all night
I assumed that he would be sleeping again, but almost immediately, he responded.
From Hunter:
1:05am- same, do you wanna head downstairs and talk?
1:05am- I'm already downstairs, I came down here around 12
1:06am- k I'll be down in a sec, then we can go outside?
1:06am-sure
After that, I put my phone back into the hoodie pocket. Hunters hoodie.
I was just wearing his hoodie and my blue booty shorts. That's what I sleep in.
A couple minutes had passed, then Hunter came down the stairs.
He was wearing sweatpants and no shirt, so I got a real good look at every muscle in his torso.
He stared at me in awe.
I frowned at him in confusion.
He walked over to me and hugged me from behind the couch.
"You look better in my hoodie than I do." He stated.
I smiled.
"I already knew that." I said.
He let out a breathy chuckle before taking hold of my hand and lead me off of the couch.
He walked us outside and over to the pool.
He sat on the edge, dipping his feet in.
I sat right beside him and did the same.
"So, what's kept you up all night?" I questioned, swishing my feet in the water.
"I don't really know, I've just been thinking over everything." He told me,
"What about you?"
"Pretty much the same as you." I said.
He shifted closer to me as we stared at the pool.
"Kay?" Hunter said.
"Yeah?" I answered.
"Could you do something for me?" He asked, wrapping his arm around my shoulders,
"Dance."
I turned my head in his direction.
"What?" I asked with a smile.
"Dance." He repeated.
I let out a breathy chuckle.
"Why?" I repeated.
Hunter smiled at me.
"Because it is the most beautiful thing that I have ever seen, you dancing." He told me.
I looked at him in awe.
I placed a quick kiss on his cheek before standing up and walking over to the beginning of the grassy area of the backyard.
"I don't have music." I told him.
He smiled and took his phone out of his pant pocket.
Then that reminded me that I should probably take mine out.
As I did, Hunter tapped a few times before setting his phone down on the ground.
Then the song "Changes by XXXTentacion" came on, and I am going to dance the one that I dreamt.
🎶 Mmm, baby, I don't understand this
You're changing, I can't stand it
My heart can't take this damage
And the way I feel, can't stand it
Mmm, baby, I don't understand this
You're changing, I can't stand it
My heart can't take this damage
And the way I feel, can't stand it
Mmm, baby, I don't understand it
Girl, you're making it hard for me
Girl, you're making it hard for me
Girl, you're making it hard for me, uh
Girl, you're making it hard for me
Girl, you're making it hard for me
Girl, you're making it hard for me
Mmm, baby, I don't understand this
You're changing, I can't stand it
My heart can't take this damage
And the way I feel, can't stand it
Mmm, baby, I don't understand this
You're changing, I can't stand it
My heart can't take this damage
And the way I feel, can't stand it
Mmm, baby, I don't understand this
You're changing, I can't stand it
My heart can't take this damage
And the way I feel, can't stand it
Mmm, baby, I don't understand it🎶
In the end, after my dance, after several flips, turns, jumps and cool moves, the song ended.
I stopped and Hunter was still watching, swishing his feet in the water.
"Beautiful." He said.
"How do you do those cool flips with your legs straight?" He asked.
I smiled.
He means aerials.
I simply did a front aerial, really stretching my legs so I could get the splits effect in the air.
"That?" I replied.
He nodded his head.
I chuckled before going back to where I was sitting before, beside Hunter.
"It's basically a front handspring, but with no hands." I told him.
He smiled before asking,
"What's a handspring?"
~~~
I woke up to the sound of very, very, faint voices.
I opened my eyes and I didn't see anyone, but I wasn't in my room.
I was in Hunters.
I remember one of the first times that I was here, I woke up his room.
It's a flash from the past.
I went to move, but there was an arm wrapped around my waist, so I immediately froze.
But by the muscles that I could feel against my body, it was Hunter.
I relaxed again, as Hunter began to stir slightly.
I was quite comfortable.
Last night when we were talking, we both lied down and looked at the stars.
I guess I fell asleep then. I don't remember anything other than that, and that means that Hunter carried me upstairs.
I smiled at the thought.
But then the warmth of Hunters body slowly and carefully moved away from mine.
"What are you guys doing?" He asked in an angry whisper.
I couldn't make out the answer that he received, but Hunter quietly groaned.
"Out." He said, then added,
"She is sleeping, and we are not on display for you guys to watch."
His bedroom door quietly shut and Hunters arm wrapped around my waist again.
He cuddled me before whispering,
"Sorry, the guys and Lilli were staring at us. But I hope that you slept through it."
I was laying on my right side, facing the window.
My head was on one of my arms and I had a warm blanket draped across my body.
"I was awake." I said quietly.
Hunter gives me a gentle squeeze.
"Sorry." He told me.
"Don't be." I said.
I turned my body towards him.
He was laying there with no shirt and still in his sweatpants from last night.
I looked at his brown eyes while he was looking at my blue ones.
He smiled.
"You fell asleep last night when we were looking at the stars, I brought you inside and up here, I didn't want to wake Lilli up. She seems like the type of person that would be pissed if she doesn't get enough sleep." Hunter told me.
I chuckled,
"Yeah, she is."
I rolled back over and hopped off of the bed, stretching.
"Jeez, do you always wake up with energy?" Hunter hoarsely asked.
"Yes, yes I do." I said, before adding,
"Okay put some clothes on, I wanna go on a Starbucks date."
Hunter smiled.
"So do I."
