Today is going to be a great day. At least, that is what I tell myself the next morning.

~~~

I wake up with Marcus's arms wrapped around my waist and his chest pressed against my back. He had slept over last night, along with Emily. I did not plan on it. Marcus was supposed to go home last night. I faintly remember Emily complaining, because Marcus wanted to stay over.

10 hours earlier

"No. Go home. This is a girls' night. You are not even supposed to be here." Emily is a little pissed off at the fact that Marcus is still there. I gave her a fair warning earlier; told her that Marcus was coming over. Yet, she is still upset.

Marcus just laughs. "Why can you not go home? I want to be with my girlfriend."

"And I want to be with my best friend. No, I need to be with my best friend." Emily glares at him, daring him to challenge her.

Marcus grabs my arm, pulling it to his chest. "I am staying, as long as Mia wants me to stay."

I yank my arm back, glaring at Marcus myself. "Do not get me in the middle of this. You guys figure this shit out yourselves." I excuse myself from the room, getting away from the both of them.

I set to work making myself another cup of hot chocolate, using the dark chocolate flavor. It is the only kind I ever have with me; I live for dark chocolate. I did not even let Emily eat milk chocolate when I lived with her.

Someone knocks. I yell, "I will get it." Marcus and Emily are still fighting, so they do not even notice. I am thankful for whoever is behind the door; they have saved me.

I open it to see Ryan. "Ryan," I breathe out.

He smiles. "Hey, Mia."

"WHO CARES IF YOU HAVE KNOWN HER LONGER? I AM THE MAN. I SHOULD HAVE RIGHTS."

Ryan peers around me, wondering where in the hell that came from. To be honest, I am wondering myself. I am not exactly listening to their argument, just getting a headache from it.

I roll my eyes and gesture for Ryan to step out the door. "We can talk out here."

I close the door behind me, shutting out all of the loud voices. "So, what is up?" Last time Ryan paid me a visit, we made out.

He just shrugs. "I just wanted to see if you were busy. I was heading to the movies and wondered if you wanted to come with." His cheeks tint pink, hinting there is more to this request than he is letting on. This is a date.

"Ryan..."

"Mia, I am not asking you to marry me. I am asking you to have some fun."

Well, when he puts it like that, I am convinced.

"Marcus is here."

He nods his head and looks down at his feet.

"And so is Emily. I cannot go out right now. I am sorry. Maybe another time." I open the door and step inside, expecting Ryan to leave.
