Rue's POV

I CANT BELIEVE I fucking did that. To be honest, I was planning on just teasing him. But the way I felt while I was- I don't know, I felt like I was in control. I had the power to do whatever I wanted.

And now, he has to make a pillow fort with me.

Beat that, bitch.

Nadine sits on my bed, the blanket covering his lower half, leaving his muscular chest revealed. I rummage through my drawers, looking for my jeans and sweater. I grab a black pair of tights and fresh pair of underwear. I grab a black Lacey bra, a black tank top, and finally, my oversized flannel, the color of blue, black, and white.

I turn my head to the side and get a glance of Nadine. He has one of my books that he got off my nightstand, and is reading it.

We stand men who actually have a brain.

While he's distracted, I slip my sports bra off, leaving me with only my bare chest. I grab my black bra, and clip it. I pull the straps up and then grab my black tank top. I untie the strings of my sweats, then kick them off my feet. I grab my tights and struggle a bit to get them pulled up. Now I get my ripped jeans, and slip those over my tights. I slip my tank top over my head, and tuck the bottoms into my jeans.

Before putting my flannel on, I turn around, only to see Nadine watching intently at me. Once he catches my stare, he smirks and then shrugs his shoulders. I grab the closest thing near me, and chuck it at him. He swiftly catches it, then brings it up so he can tell what it is.

It's my bra...

"Aw, you got me a present. How sweet of you, amore." He says, an obvious teasing voice laced in his words.

I roll my eyes and laugh. I grab my flannel and slip it on. "Come on, get dressed so we can go to the store!" I shout excitedly.

"I thought we were making a fort." He said in disbelief.

"We are, we have to go to the store to get some supplies."

He rolls his eyes and smiles. "Only for you, Tesoro." I feel my cheeks heat up. I turn away so he can't see.

-

I go downstairs and wait for Nadine to get dressed.

Kaylee and Alex sit in the couch, Kaylee's head resting in Alex's lap, while they watch a movie that's being played on the T.V.

From what I can tell, those two have gotten pretty close since we came here. Most definitely not judging though. Fuck- look where me and Nadine are right now.

Exactly.

Alex looks away from the T.V and catches my gaze. "Oh, hey Rue." Alex says as I walk deeper into the living room. Kaylee looks up at me and smiles. She sits up and slightly scoots away from Alex.

"Heyyyyy." Kylee gets up and wraps her arms around my neck, pulling me against her. "Soooooo, do you wanna help me with something?" Kaylee asks, barring her eyelashes and giving puppy dog eyes.

I roll my eyes and smile, "what do you need help with?" I ask. She gives a big smile and does a little jump.

"I was wondering if you wanted to help me plan something for Aniyah. You know, since she was our friend, and we don't have her body to bury- I just... I wanna do something for her."

"Of course." I say, Leaning in to give her another hug. I look around the room, suddenly feeling more empty. "Where's Diego?"

Kaylee goes quiet. Alex looks up and shakes his head, "He's still locked in his room. I don't think he's eaten anything. I mean- I tried to give him some stuff, but he wouldn't let me in." Alex scratches the back of his neck, a thing he would do when he's nervous or anxious.

"Oh." I shake off the bad feeling. "So when are we doing this?" I ask Kaylee.

"Tomorrow."

I nod my head. "Okay, I'm down."

"Great." She gives a quick smile before going back to the couch and taking a seat next to Alex. Alex smiles as Kaylee lays her head on his shoulder.

Alex looks up at me and gives me a scolding type of look.

I did nothing wrong.

I simply smile and throw my hands up, In return.

Nadine comes down a few minutes later. He has his black coat on, and my coat in his hand. He hands it to me when he gets down.

"Thank you." I say and grab my coat, slipping it on. I take the gloves I had kept in the pocket, and put those on as well.

"Where are y'all two going?" Alex says from the couch. He has a suspicious look on his face. He's eyeing the both of us as we just stand there.

"Oh- we uh- we're just running to the store." I answer.

"What are y'all getting from the store?"

"Stuff."

"What kind of stuff-"

"What the fuck do you want, Alex!" I slightly shout. He rolls his eyes and laughs.

"I'm just playin." He answers, still laughing. "But hey, keep it in your pants, young man!" Alex shouts, aiming his words at Nadine.

I turn to see Nadine slightly laughing. We walk to the door and prepare for the cold. "We'll see about that." He whispers in my ear.

-

We arrive at a store that is about fifteen minutes from the house. The name of the store is in Russian, so I obviously don't know what to call it.

Nadine gets out first. I open my door, but before I can even get my foot out, Nadine shuts the door. I look at him through the window confused. He waits a few seconds, and then he opens the door. A slick smile on his face. I laugh and roll my eyes.

"What a gentleman." I tease as I step out.

"Anything for you, Tesoro." He gives me a little smirk and starts walking towards the store. I catch up behind him.

The store is very different than the ones in America. It looks dull, but at the same time, has a nice vibe to it. There's Christmas lights hanging from the ceiling, even thought it's November. Well, I guess Christmas is sorta coming up.

"Since you've actually been to Russia, you mind leading me to the blanket isle?" I ask, looking up a Nadine. He looks down at me and nods.

The blanket idle is amazing here. Rows and rows of blankets, carpets, and fluffy pillows.

"How many do we need?" Nadine asks.

"Your rich, right?" I ask out if the blue.

"How else would we have gotten here." He laughs.
