[MUSIC PLAYING]
That's so nice of you, Max, making Moriah's bed.
[LAUGHS] We don't have time for you to do your makeup
and make your own bed.
That's why she's got me here.
That's not why I have you here.
You're just my bros, so like, that's what we do.
You must be talking to Micah.
I am not your bro.
[LAUGHING]
That's better.
OK.
Max and I have been together for almost a year now,
and our relationship has grown so much.
I think this is supposed to go this way.
Dude, make up your mind!
Don't call me dude.
[LAUGHS]
Last year, Max walked into my life at the time
that I was going through the most changes.
I was, like--
I was really finding myself, but at the same time,
extremely lost, and that did put a lot of strain
on our relationship.
Whereas now, I'm just a tiny bit more stable,
but not a whole lot.
[LAUGHS] But I have been able to, like,
put more focus on our relationship and help him,
whereas he's not just pouring everything into me
and not getting anything back.
Thanks.
You're welcome, bro.
Oh, I've never kissed a bro before.
[LAUGHS]
Last year I had my first kiss, and--
and it hasn't stopped since.
The kissing number skyrocketed this past year.
[LAUGHS] [INAUDIBLE].
You better give me a hug.
I was raised around people where, you know,
the mindset was, like, very strict.
Like, no kissing till you get married, no--
I mean, not a whole lot of physical touch
at all, barely holding hands.
Stuff like that, like, that was what was
OK, that was what was right.
But still, that didn't really place any guilt on me
when I finally left it, because I knew all along,
like, this isn't what I want.
Your bed is taking after your style--
it's all black.
You know me well.
I try my best.
In the last year, I think that Moriah's got a lot more, like,
independent, and just a lot more focused
on, like, her path in life.
Put the pillowcases here.
[LAUGHING]
Pillow fight.
I can't believe we've gone this far with a pillow--
Micah!
What?
Get off [INAUDIBLE]
[LAUGHING]
Max comes over a lot now, which is really fun.
He's just a really cool dude.
OK.
Is that literally what you called me in here for?
- Yeah. - Max did.
[LAUGHING]
How was that?
I hate you.
Get out of here.
I mean, I would honestly say mine
and Max's relationship is kind of just like brothers,
kind of having fun.
Literally, I don't think we do anything else other
than just play around.
I'm done.
What's been up?
Not much.
I did not say that.
I did not say I win every competition--
Just most.
We do love to compete with each other
to, like, push the limit and see who can do more push ups,
who can do a backflip better.
Ahh!
Eat that, Max.
And if we're being honest, Micah wins most of them.
(WHISPERING) Thank you.
You're welcome.
You win some though, I'll give you that.
But I will say, I think that I don't try as hard though,
because I already have a girl, so I'm not,
like, trying to prove to show off any.
Oh, boy.
I think-- I think we just start trying in other things,
other than trying to be attractive.
Sweet things--
No, I'm kidding.
One big, happy family.
Come ruin your interview here.
[LAUGHING]
No, y'all make it fun.
OK.
Just playing Solitaire.
As far as dating goes, I am single right now
and I like that.
I'm just trying to keep relationships
casual in my life.
I'm really trying focus on my career, where I'm at right now,
and what I want to do.
Since last year, I signed with a large agency
and I've been to Miami and Atlanta several
times doing a little bit of modeling work.
I've done a teeth whitening campaign,
shooting for my portfolio and getting into acting.
But also maintaining my jobs and my life here at the same time.
So it's a good bit jumping between the two.
I love experiencing new things in big cities.
I've been told I can, like, transition from, like,
a country boy to a city boy pretty well.
Hurry up, Moriah, we're going to be late.
All right, because we don't have a world of time,
you can go hang out with Micah while I quick finish.
All right, bro.
[LAUGHS]
I'll go see Micah for a minute.
All right.
(WHISPERING) Hey, Moriah?
I love you.
(WHISPERING) I love you, too.
[LAUGHS]
Today, Micah, Max and I are going
over to my parents' to celebrate my dad's birthday.
My parents and I are at a much better place
than we were a year ago.
It's like I have boundaries, but I've also
come to the conclusion that they're my parents
and I can't do anything about that.
And I'm just, I guess, basically learning to love them
for who they are, because that's what I want them to do for me.
But also, since Ethan had that confrontation with my parents
in the driveway, watching him kind of cope the way he has
and hold grudges and kind of not just,
like, sort through it himself, that has been an example to me
in a way of, like, I don't really
want to carry all that around.
So I would prefer to just deal with it and move on.
[KNOCKING ON DOOR]
Hey, bro.
What's up, Max?
I need to tell you something--
OK.
--and (WHISPERING) Moriah can't hear about it.
Moriah and I are about to go on a year now of dating,
and I want to do something to show what she means to me.
