LITTLE THINGS

MYRA'S POV

After we reached the building we got off the car and went to his apartment. We arrange all the groceries in the refrigerator and I got really tired after my first day at work and then this shopping my feet were really killing me, I went to sit on the couch and started massaging my calf muscles. Xavier was still arranging some things in the kitchen. I remembered how he offered to make food for everyday he was really sweet for offering but I didn't want to let him do all the work for me when he is already doing so much so I tried refusing but he wouldn't let me so I told him that I would help him in making and wash all the dishes. A small smile made its way on my face as I remembered this and how he said that he liked the smell of my hair.

"What are you thinking sweetheart?" Xavier asked as he sat on the couch with me and handing me a glass of water. I didn't even see him coming I was really deep in thoughts. I thanked him and drank the water he got me and placed the glass on the table. "Now sweetheart will you tell me why you are blushing while thinking. What got you all flushed?" I don't know what should I tell him so I just lied "N-Nothing I am just really tired and I don't want to unpack my stuff but I have to." I whined.

He just chuckled at me "Don't worry sweetheart I will help you unpack." I am still not used to that nickname but I like it when he calls me that.

"You don't have to Xavier I will manage and you must be tired too." I said as I don't want to burden him so much.

"Sweetheart you are right I don't have to but I want to and I am not that much tired as I am used to working by now this much you are more tired because it was you first day. Don't worry about it ok? Now come I will help you?" he said as he hold my hand and take me next door. I unlocked my place and we got inside. I asked if Xavier could arrange the kitchen as if Xavier is not home I could something for myself. He agreed and I went to arrange the things we bought today first. After we were finished with that we arranged my clothes and other things. We were all finished by 10pm and were really tired. So Xavier suggested to order pizza.

We are now watching TV while waiting for the delivery on the couch. I was so tired I don't know when I fell asleep. But felt someone muffle me and then kissing my forehead. I don't know for how long I slept Xavier was lightly shaking my shoulder for me to wake up. "Sweetheart wake up the pizza is here. It will get cold so we should eat." He said.

I sat on the couch while rubbing my eyes and then when I opened my eyes a blanket was on top of me Xavier must have covered me I smiled a little at that. Xavier sat next to me and handed me the pizza box and we started eating. "For how long was i sleeping?" I asked Xavier. "Just half an hour." He smiled a little.

After eating Xavier went to his place to sleep and I went to bed after changing in my fluffy white top which reach up to my mid-thigh and shorts. I don't know why I was not able to fall asleep I just keep turning and tossing. And then I heard some sounds from the kitchen at first I just ignored it. But I heard something again my heart started ponding in my chest. I slowly got up from the bed and went to the kitchen to check but no one was there so I started heading to bed but heard something again now I was so scared I didn't know what to do so I just went to Xavier's place and knocked on his door he opened after sometime and when saw me his smile fell.

"Hey sweetheart what happened why are you crying?" he wiped my tears with his thumb I didn't notice I was crying until now.

"T-There is someone in the k-kitchen." I shuttered.

"Come with me we will go and check ok?" he asked while taking my hand in his and leading me back to my place. He checked everywhere but no one was there.

"Sweetheart no one is here. Maybe you just imagined it. Don't worry ok no one is here." He said softly to me. But I was still scared and didn't want to sleep here.

"Xavier if you don't mind can I sleep at your place. I was not able to sleep here alone anyways." I asked.

"Sure sweetheart you can come." He said smiling and going towards the door.

"Wait let me take my phone." I said heading towards my bedroom. "Yeah" I heard him saying.

After taking my phone and locking my place we head to Xavier's place. He closed door after me when we were inside.

"Do you need some water sweetheart?" Xavier asked. I just nodded and he went to the kitchen. He returned with a glass of water in one hand and then I noticed that Xavier has also changed and was now wearing a tight grey t shirt which fit his body perfectly and a black lower. He gave me the glass and I placed the glass on the table after drinking.

He looked really good in those.
