I was sitting with Mark in the studio while we were waiting for Bethany and Sadie to show up.

"Mark, listen, the plan is your going to set up a romantic picnic for Witney. I will get Bethany to bring her there." I explain to him.

"Sounds good." He replies lost in his own thoughts.

"Hey guys!" I here a familiar voice say.

I turn around to see Beth walking into the studio.

"Hey babe!" I reply and give her a quick peck on the lips.

"Hey Mark, Sadie's waiting for you in your studio." She says.

"Oh, okay. See you guys later." He says still deep in thought.

"What's up with him?" Beth asks.

"Just a little, um, out of it today." I say.

"Okay..." She says giving me the- "tell me the truth" look.

"Let's just get to rehearsal." I say changing the subject. Right now it's week 7, Halloween week.

Beth sets her bags down and meets me in the middle of the floor. We start working and her energy seems low.

"Do you need some energy or something?" I ask getting frustrated.

"No, why?" She asks.

"You seem really low on energy today." I answer.

"Do I really?" She asks the camera crew. They nod their heads.

She gives me that confused look, indicating she didn't feel like she was low on energy.

After the camera crew leaves, I walk over to Beth. She looks a little down.

"Hey what's up?" I ask sitting down next to her.

"I just feel like I did terrible today." She says looking at her feet. I lift her chin up so she's looking at me.

"Babe, you were just low on energy. That's something that we can easily fix." I say looking into her eyes.

"I love you." She says.

"I love you, too." I say and give her a passionate kiss.

As we were kissing Mark walks in the room.

"Woah, sorry." He says about to walk out. I break the kiss.

"Mark, wait!" I say.

He comes back in the room.

"What were you gonna say?" I ask.

"I was gonna ask if you two lovebirds wanna come to the haunted house with me, Sadie, Janel, Val, Alfonso, and Witney?" He asks.

Beth blushes at the word lovebirds. I look at Beth and she nods her head.

"The lovebirds would love to." I say as I pull Beth closer to me and out my arm
around her.
