when I say that everyone wanted Simon and I to date, I meant everyone.

there wasn't a day that wen by where if we were hanging out together we got smirking faces looking in our direction, or the occasional ‘aw what a sweet couple’ from strangers.

today was just another one of those days. 

my baby (not really a baby) sister, luna, was staying at my apartment for the weekend. having to go back to school fairly soon, she wanted to spend some quality time with her old her sister before it was back to burying her nose in a book for 6 hours a day. desperate to meet the boys, especially Simon, I had arranged for us all to go grab some lunch and watch a movie at my apartment. 

currently sitting on the couch of my living room, majority of the group had already arrived. Chinese food laid out across the small coffee table I had, tobi, vikk, josh and Ethan crowded around the small table as they all picked out what they wanted.

I sat quietly on the couch, luna sitting to my right and Simon sitting close by on my left. my sister kept eyeing us, a smirk plastered across her face. I was not taking shit from a 12 year old, not today.

so I looked at her and just glared. she giggled, her eye dropping into a wink. where the fuck was this coming from. 

suddenly, I felt an around wrap around my shoulder and pull me closer into a body. I blushed, feeling flustered before peering up at Simon, a small smile tugging at my lips. I saw a smile play at Simons lips, but he didn't look at me.

“hey love birds, are you gonna eat or not?” luna asked. 

I hadn't realised that she had moved from beside me to grab her own lunch. I was too caught up in staring at Simon to even realise. 

so I awkwardly cleared my throat before pulling away from his embrace. I grab some rice and chicken before sitting back down beside Simon. he had decided to just share mine, so I had gotten enough for the two of use. 

Ethan snickered, looking at both Simon and myself before muttering something along the lines of ‘just fuck already’. I rolled my eyes before I started eating, having Simon pick at the food every now and again.

after finishing, we all decided to watch a movie. luna being the youngest, we settled on some Disney movie none of us has seen in forever.

just before sitting down, she leant over to me.
