June

I was the first one awake, Vinnie was sound asleep beside me with his arms tightly wrapped around me like he was scared I would float away if he loosened up even a tad.

It was nice to wake up to that.

I got myself up out of his arms after struggling and realized that at some point he pulled me up to the head of the bed and tucked us under the covers after I fell asleep.

I need to shower.

I go straight into the shower, and after washing myself, I switch it over to the bath and sit down in the tub.

I watch the cars pass bellow and people walk up and down the streets, oblivious that I'm watching them from above.

Im stuck on deciding if last night wastage right decision or wasn't.

I had so much fun, and that was the best I've ever been with anyone but I don't want him to see me any differently.

I'm so tired of people seeing me as someone that I'm not.

I don't know, I just have this guilt.

The curtain pulls back and I jump, my head tilting up to look up at Vinnie whos looking in at me.

"Scared the shit out of me." He sighs and runs his hand through his hair stressfully. "I couldn't find you anywhere, I thought you left."

"I wouldn't have gone anywhere without telling you." I softly tell him and hold my hand up to him. "Wanna come in?"

Vinnie nods his head and tugs down his boxers. I scoot forward, and let him step into the tub behind me. Once he's seated with me between his legs, he pulls me back to lean against him.

I lay the back of my head on his shoulder and look out of the window, "It's busy today."

His fingers trace designs up my thigh, "What is?"

"Paris." I point out of the window, "It's because it's Saturday."

He takes my hand and holds it out to look at my nails, his chin digging into my shoulder, "Wanna go run around like idiots?"

I smile at his question, "I was planning on it."

He hums and runs the pad of bis thumb along my pinky nail, "Why orange?"

"What?" I turn my head, to see his face, "My nail?"

"Yea."

"Because that's your color."

"My color?" He raises his brows at me, a slight smile on his lips.

"Yea, everyone has a color." I look out of the window, "My mom is a dark purple, Sabrina is scarlet, Melanie is yellow, Lucky is a baby pink... and you're sunset orange."

He blows air through his nose, a soft chuckle coming from his chest, "You have such a funny way of looking at things.... What's your color Juni?"

I shrug my shoulders, "I like to think of myself as green... but I know I'm not."

Vinnie puts his lips to my cheek, "Then what color are you?"

"Probably grey or brown."

"That's the farthest thing from the truth."

I press my lips into a line, "I really don't think it is."

"Well you're wrong." He tightens his arms around me, "Youre not brown, or grey, or even just one color. You're all of them and probably more."

That's the coolest thing anyone's ever told me.

I close my eyes, and lean my head back, my neck craning. "What's up with the sappy shit?"

He shrugs lightly, bouncing my skull, "You make me want all that lovey dovey shit."

"Oh really? You weren't into it before?" I tease him with my eyes opening to look up at him.

Vinnie smiles at me, "The idea of it Yea, but I haven't tried for anything until I met you. I kind of just..." he scoffs at himself, "Slept around, because I get all the pussy I want."

I roll my eyes at him, "That's reassuring."

"Okay but like-" he sits up, pushing me up a tad, "I told you about the whole fantasizing about getting married thing... but I didn't actually see it until I met you. I feel like we could have a future together."

I've been feeling the same way.

I haven't thought much about that since it's so early in our relationship but... when I look at him, and he just stares at me like he fucking adores the ground I walk on...

I look away from him, processing what he's said and smile slightly, "Me too... I'm the happiest I've been in years."

"Same here."

I scoot off of him, and turn around to face him. I lift my hand to hold my pinky out to him with an adoring smile on my face, "Even if we aren't end game, promise me you'll never not be my friend."

Vinnies eyes lower to my pinky and the water splashes when he lifts his hand out of it to grab my pinky with his. "I promise, I'll stay."

We shake our hands between us, and he narrows his eyes at me.

"Was that a marvel reference?"

I lower my head with a laugh, nodding at his question so he grabs my arm and pulls me to him.

I wrap my arms around his neck, sitting almost on his lap with our faces inches apart. "I didn't know if you'd get it."

"Of course I got it, I've basically studied marvel just so I can understand half of the shit you talk about." He replies with a bit of sass.

I head bud him, our forehead touching while I laugh softly. "Youre amazing you know that?"

"I know, " He smiles fondly at me, "but really only when you're around."
