Daniel's pov

When I woke up in the morning, the first thing that came to my mind was that Jonah is here, sleeping in my living room. That thought put a big smile on my face. Who would've thought? It's crazy how we went from strangers to lovers, then from lovers to almost haters, then from haters back to lovers again. Okay, maybe haters is a strong word, but I don't know how to define that faze we were apart. He for sure did not hate me. I know that. And the thing is that I did not hate him either. I was just hurt and disappointed at first. Then I realized I'm not innocent in this whole situation that happened back then.

After this endless wave of basically useless thoughts, I just shook my head to clear my mind and decided to get up. I can't change the past and it's just waste of time thinking about what happened, what could've I done and stuff like that. So I'm not gonna spend more time thinking about it, if I just can spend that time with Jonah instead.

I got up and dressed up. Then I headed into the bathroom to freshen up. As I was getting ready, I was thinking about what I should make for breakfast for both of us. It must be something what he really likes, so I can show him that I care about him and truly mean what I said yesterday, but mostly that I forgive him.

I walked out of the bathroom, through the hallway, heading into the kitchen. I looked into the living room area and saw the empty couch. I walked into the room and I could see through the opened glass door he's sitting out on the balcony. I smiled and slowly started walk towards the door. When I reached it, I stopped within the door and looked down at him sitting in the chair, holding a cup of coffee in his hand. We both smiled from the view of one another.

"Good morning, Dani." he said smiling cutely.

"Good morning." I replied.

"I made you breakfast. It's in the fridge." he said and it honestly surprised me. He's so sweet tho.

"Really?" I asked just to make it sure he's not joking or something.

"Yeah, so enjoy your meal." he said and I was still very surprised so I just turned around and went to check out what he made for me.

I heard him coming after me. I did not wait just opened the fridge and immediately noticed my favourite food for breakfast in the world. I got actually so happy out of nowhere.

"Oh my god. Thank you so much. Seriously." I thanked him grabbing the plate and taking it out from the fridge. I put it on the kitchen island behind me and looked at Jonah smiling widely. "You haven't forgotten?" I asked him. It means a lot to me. Even if it's just a meal. It's not about what it is. It's about that he remembers it. Now I'm more than sure about that I made the right decision, when I forgave him, when I said I love him and that I allowed him to stay and everything. I just love this guy so fucking much.

He walked closer to me and stopped just a few inches away from me. Then he caressed my hair and it felt so good. It made me blush as well. I hope it wasn't that visible at least.

"How could I forget about my love's favourite breakfast?" he asked and I'm sure this time it was pretty visible that he made me blush. But oh my goodness. What he said was..wow..I couldn't help myself, but kiss him.

When we separated, we just hugged tightly in comfortable silence. As simple as it sounds like, it was so meaningful for me. I mean I truly felt from the way he was holding me that he loves me and that I'm his everything. That same kind of feeling when we kissed for the first time and he then hugged me, holding me like I was his everything. His afraid of losing me. Always was. He told me many times that he lost everyone else, but he has never been this scared of losing anyone else.

I have no idea how he felt when we broke up. Cause I felt like my heart got ripped out of my chest and shattered into million pieces. So I'm now the happiest that I got him back in my life. I never wanna go through something like that ever again.

~few hours later~

Me and Jonah had lunch together and decided to go out and have fun. Cause tomorrow I have to go back to work, so I wanna spend my free time slash day off with him.

I locked the entrance door on the apartment and we both headed down the hall to the elevator.

"Oh, we forgot to check the weather forecast." Jonah said as we were waiting for the elevator door to open.

"It's all sunny out there." I replied as the door went open and we stepped inside.

"Well, I just hope it's not gonna rain until we get back here." he said. I just smiled at him. "What? I have a feeling. You know I always used to tell you that my head feels weird so it's possibly gonna rain today. And I feel it right now."

"Then why would I need to check the weather forecast if I have you?" I asked and he smiled back at me.

"Aww." he put his arm around my neck and pulled me closer, placing a kiss on my forehead.

The elevator stopped and we walked out of it, leaving the apartment complex right away. As we started to walk down the street, Jonah reached out his hand to me and I took it, interlacing our fingers. It felt so nice to be able to hold hands with him like this for the first time in a while.

Wish I could tell my family that we're back together and how happy I am, but I can't. They have never known about him and probably never will even if he's my life. The only person I can imagine my future with. And I can't introduce him to my family, all because of my mom. Who knows what she has told everyone back home about me and Jonah or my sexual orientation or if she even mentioned something.
