I wake in the morning really late, but apparently, not later than Mateo, seeing him still asleep.

I walk closer to his bedroom and stare at him. His hair is messy, his face turned to a side, so I only see his profile, and his body under the blankets.

And finally he moves, and tosses a blanket off himself in sleep, while I smile looking at his barely seen abs.

But I don't dare to wake him up, instead, I go to kitchen and as quiet as I can I make coffee. I didn't know when he'll wake up, so I just kind of started drinking it, instead of giving him.

Then I stopped when it was a little more than half and sat on the counter, trying to think of something to do.

I heard footsteps, and soon sleepy Mateo walked in kitchen. He smelled my coffee and drank from it, while I just pouted.

But I didn't dare to say anything to him, since he needed his morning coffee.

He finally opened his eyes wide enough and looked at me.

-"Good morning. You drank my coffee, so you gotta make me one now." I crossed my arms, and almost started smile when I saw his half sleepy smile.

It was so cute, but I managed to mask my interest in him, or I hope so.

And even thought we knew each other only one week, I was stating to fall.

Head over heels, for him.

And I didn't know what to think about it.

-"You look like you still haven't slept." I said.

-"Should I be insulted by that?" He furrows his brows, and starts making two more coffee's.

-"Nope. Still pretty." He turned away from me, so I couldn't see his face, but I saw his cheeks reddening a little.

But I chose to ignore that, because it could be of anything. After all, it's really hot in here.

So, it's Saturday. What should we do?

I sigh when receive a call from Neil, and pick up my phone.

-"Where are you?" Neil asks.

Wait, doesn't he knows that I'm with-

Oh shit.

-"I'm with Mateo." I answer him, going to the living room.

-"Well, you need to come home." He says.

-"Why?" I ask back, really not wanting to go.

-"Because, i don't know, but you have to come home right now or my mom will get worried-"

-"Okay, okay. See ya later." I cut him off, sighing mentally. But on outside I make a smile and go to kitchen where Mateo stands.

-"Your coffee." Mate says and hands me one.

I smile, this time a real smile, and take it, immediately sipping from it.

And my phone beeps one more time with a message from Neil.

"Don't be too late."

I sighed and turned to Mateo.

-"Can you drive me to my house?" I ask.

-"Wow, this is the first time you willingly want to go away." He says and furrows his brows then smiles and nods.

-"So that's a yes?" I question him, with too hopeful voice.

-"Fine." He nods along his words and drinks his coffee, while I do the same.
