(What… Lol. That’ll be hilarious.
Sounds good. Give me a moment.)

Sterling’s POV:

I walked into the apartment around quarter-after five, bags strung over his arms and a smile on his face. “Eden? Babe? I’m home!” I called, setting the bags down near the door.

Eden’s POV:

I’d finished getting dressed for the visit, and as always, I finished my look with one of Sterling’s jackets (Eden is such a thief xD).

“Welcome home,” I poked my head through the room, walking over to him. “Are you tired? Let me give you a massage for a while.”

Sterling’s POV:

I laughed and met her in the middle of the room, scooping her into my arms. A quick wink and a grin later, my lips were attached to hers once again.

“If you do that, we might be late,” I murmured against her.

Eden’s POV:

I laughed as he scooped me up into his arms, snuggling into his chest before he pressed our lips together.

“You’re right,” I murmured. “We’ll meet V and Gray over there.”

Sterling’s POV:

“Mmhm… Anyway, are you ready?” I asked, finally pulling away and glancing over her. A light laugh made its way past my lips as I noticed what she was wearing. “Is that my jacket?”

Eden’s POV:

I blushed a little, rubbing my cheek with my hand, the sleeve too long.

“Yes,” I answered bashfully. “I missed you. It smelled like you, and I like wearing your clothes.”

Sterling’s POV:

I smiled down at her softly and kissed her forehead. “Well, you look hot in it, so please do continue. You can wear my clothes anytime.”

Eden’s POV:

I closed my eyes, taking a deep breath before grinning up at him.

“I would have done so anyway,” I shrugged. “My outfit is never complete without anything of yours in it.”

His compliment caused me to blush heavily, though I didn’t let it affect me too much.

Walking or busing?)

(Do you want to skip to when they arrive?
Not it.)

(Do you want to skip to when they arrive?
Not it.)

(Fine. -.- I’ll do it in a few minutes, when I reach class.)

Eden’s POV:

We’d finally put everything in the back of Sterling’s car neatly. We were driving off to the orphanage ten minutes before six when we caught sight of Gray and Violeta walking, holding several bags of what I assumed was food.

“Maybe we should offer them a ride,” I chuckled, shaking my head.

Sterling’s POV:

I glanced over and chuckled. “Maybe, yeah. I’ll pull over if you want to get out and offer them a ride,” I said as we passed them, already pulling over.

Eden’s POV:

I nodded at him as he pulled over, getting out of the car to get their attention.

“V, Gray,” I called, gaining their attention. “Want a ride?”

I turned my head towards the sound of a familiar voice calling my name.

“Oh, hey Eden. Uhh, if that’s okay with you guys, that’d be helpful..”

Eden’s POV:

Gray nodded his head.

“These bags are heavy, so we’re glad you dropped by,” he said, smiling.

“You can put them in the back,” I said, already moving to open the trunk of the car.

I thanked Eden and moved around to the back of the car, opening the trunk after some minor difficulties.

"I think that's it," I said when we were done.

Eden's POV:

I nodded before walking over to the passenger side and taking a seat, pulling on my seatbelt as I waited for the couple to get inside.

"How much did everything cost?"

I climbed into the back seat, putting my seatbelt on before waving Eden's question away. "You don't have to pay for anything, it's fine."

Eden's POV:

I turned to look at her, eyebrows raised.

"I had those things ordered," I said slowly, in a voice stating that I wanted no arguments or opposing opinions. "So please, tell me how much money it was. Paying isn't an issue for me."

Seeing as she wasn't going to budge, I sighed.

"If you're sure… Gray? How much was it?"
