anthony's pov
i always wake up so early ugh. it's probably like 5 or 6 am. i try not to move too much so i don't wake up avani. i reach over to grab my phone to check the time. the brightness from my screen hurts my eyes at first. after my eyes adjust, i read the time. '6:07 am' ugh. not too early.
i feel avani's body begin to shuffle around as i am in my thoughts. she moves her body so her back to facing towards me. i spoon her, to keep her warm and to be close to her. she rolls over to be facing towards my chest. "i know your awake." i whisper to her. she giggles into my chest. "good morning princess." i kiss the top of her head. i rub my hands up and down her back.
"did i wake you?" she asks me concerned. "oh no, i always wake up super early." i reassure her. "did i wake you?" i flip the question back on her. "no i'm jet lagged." she says wiping her eyes.
"i think i'm going to shower." she says. "ok i may run out and get breakfast or i might make something. want anything?" she laughs at my comment. "can you cook?" she asks me laughing. "ya.. about the cooking part i was thinking like stick something into the toaster." we both chuckle. "i think i might just run to starbucks." i tell her. "if you wait like 15 minutes i'll come with you." she says while climbing out of my bed. "deal." i say.
avani walks into the bathroom. i sit up and go on my phone. i'm gonna run over to the bathroom in the hallway to wash my face. i don't want to interrupt avani's shower time. i hear her singing in the shower. i laugh then i walk out of my room to get myself ready. i grab clothes before i leave my room as well.
i put on black knee ripped jeans and a random grey graphic tee. i wash my face and i use one of the spare toothbrushes in the bathroom. i fix up my hair, put on deodorant and cologne. then i head back into my room to grab a pair of socks and choose my shoes.
i hear the shower is off. i still hear her singing to some song as i chose out my socks. i just chose basic black ones and a pair of white nikes. i sit on my bed and wait for avani.
after chilling for about 5 minutes avani walks out. she is wearing red leggings and a colorful stripped shirt with white socks. i stare at her from up to down. her curly wet hair and her glossy lips make me weak. "ready bebe?" she asks me. i am basically trying not to drool. "ready." i smirk at her. i grab my phone and my keys. then i drag avani out of my room. she smells like coconut and perfume.
i stop at josh's room to see if he wants anything. he is passed out in his room. i walk in there and shake him. "what?" he says as he wakes up. "wanna anything from starbucks?" i ask. he shakes his head no then falls back asleep. i shrug my shoulders and leave his room. "wanna ask the other boys?" avani asks me. "nah let's just go. no one is awake probably." i say as i walk out of the house. avani follows behind me. i run over to open her car door for her. "why thank you my love." she says in a british accent. i close the door after she is in it then i run back around to my side to start the car.
"let's go!" avani yells as i am pulling out of the driveway. she grabs the aux cord and starts playing some songs that we both jam out to casually.
as we are pulling into the driveway waiting in the long ass line. i decide to ask avani to the tiktok new year's eve party. "hey vani, do you maybe wanna go to the new year's eve party at the hype house together? like as a date?" i ask, i sound so nervous. "awww anthony, of course i would like to go with you!" she smiles and grabs my hand. we hold hands. i'm so excited now. new year's eve is tomorrow, dang 2019 went by fast.
we finally get up to the ordering window. avani orders then i order. she seems so excited, she's so cute. "ok that will be $7.56" says the woman in the women. i hand her my credit card really fast so avani couldn't get hers our fast enough. she looks up and saw that i already paid. "ant." she complains. "you my girl." i wink at her.
we get our drinks, then start to drive back to the house. "bebeeeeeee." avani holds out the e. "avaniiiiii." i hold out the i to mock her. "i'm tired and i just want cuddles." she says. "ok, when we get back to the house i'll cuddle with you. deal?" i glance at avani then back to the road. "deal!" she gets all excited.
*back at the house*
we walk in and josh is sitting in the living room with jaden. "what's up love birds!" josh yells at us. avani walks into the living room, i follow behind her. i see her hugging someone, it was mads. "oh hey mads. josh you third wheeling?" i jab at him as a joke. "suck it." he flips me off. "woah boys." avani walks into between josh and i. "we are heading upstairs, bye! it was nice to see you mads." avani pulls me out of the living room. "you made a deal." she says she we walk upstairs to my room.
she runs into my room and plops down on my bed. "so chuuuuuuu." i just want to hug her forever and never let go. i jump into my bed and land close to avani, thankfully not on her. avani and i both climb under my blanket. she cuddles her small body into mine. i trace small circles around the bottom of her back. i don't ever want to leave this moment.
