We must've both fallen asleep in the living room-
The TV was still on and the light has free access to blind me because the curtains aren't closed. It's pretty light outside even tho it's raining in storms.
The rain makes the whole apartment cold while the only warm thing is his strong chest against my back. He blows his warm breath in my neck with every breath he takes.
Keenan is a heavy sleeper. So I don't even have to try to get out of his grip while he's asleep. I wouldn't stand a chance. So I turn around while his arm is around my waist to face him.
His lips are slightly parted what makes them look even more plump and kissable. And not knowing what time it is because my phone is out of reach and his is turned off, I decide to sleep a little longer because I still feel pretty tired.

Once again waking up. But now by the feeling of him moving me on top of him. I slowly open my eyes and watch him laying on his back while pulling me on his stomach.
"Morning." He says while moving his head forward to kiss the tip of my nose. "Hi." His voice is still raspy from the sleep and even deeper than usually.
He wraps his arms even tighter around me than before and puts his chin on top of my head. "Slept well?" He asks quietly. I answer him with a nod of my head and cuddle myself into his warmth even more.
A feeling of safeness washes over me and I really try to avoid it or to push it away. I'm far from developing feelings for him. I don't think I ever will develop feelings for him.
Not just because of our circumstances of us being teacher and student. But because Keenan and I are just both really closed up persons. And I don't know if both of us would ever be fully able to let each other completely into one another's life.
We both seem pretty okay with our situation so why make it complicated with feelings?
"I think I'll head home soon." Keenan looks up to the window and stops there for a moment before he looks back at me. "No." He answers me. "What do you mean, no?"
"It's raining. I won't let you drive home." What? "Keenan, I know how to drive. I can dr-" he cuts me off by grabbing my face and making me look at him. "Please just wait until it stopped raining, bellissima."
It seems to really bug him that I want to drive while it rains. "Okay." I say. I'm not starting an argument with him about this. I have nothing to do anyway. So I waited. We waited.
The raining didn't stop until it was four in the afternoon. We used the time good I would say. Took a shower, watched TV. Slept. And that was pretty much it until I drove home.

I told Trevor that I would go on a date with him a few days ago. Today is Friday evening and he said he would pick me up in half an hour.
I'm not dressing up. Just some pair of mom jeans and a black cropped top to a leather jacket and some high heel boots. Nothing special.
Eliana 'helped' me by talking about her relationship between her and Oliver all the time and complaining that my bed is way more comfortable than hers.
Sitting in front of my big mirror, curling my hair I got a message.
Keenan: Did you already leave?
You: No. He said he would pick me up soon.
Keenan: Be careful, okay?
You: Will be :)
Eliana gives me a confused look because of the smile that isn't hidable on my face. "Who was that?" She asks. "Keenan." I say as she grabs my phone and reads the message.
"He treats you like a kid." She says. It seems like she doesn't like him without even knowing him. "Why? He cares about me. Just like you do."
Eliana doesn't answer me to what I have said. "Maybe I should meet him to have a better feeling about you guys." Seriously? "Why would you want to meet him? We're not even dating, El. We're just having fun."
"But he can still hurt you." Finishing up my hair before joining her in my bed, I grab her hand and look at her. "How would he hurt me?"
"I know you, Gigi. I'm just scared you're going to catch feelings for him and then get hurt because a relationship for you two just isn't possible." I understand her. If I catch feelings... I'm falling hard. And it wouldn't be easy to loose feelings if that's the case.
"I promise you I will not fall for him and If I do I will end this between us immediately. Now can we please stop talking about him?" My sister seems pretty pleased with my answer and waited with me until Trevor picked me up.

He took me to a park we always used to go to when we were kids. It's been nice. Very nice. I sometimes forget what a good friend Trevor is. And I even forgot that the main reason why I agreed to this date was to make someone jealous.
He didn't text me for the whole evening. It's already dark outside and Trevor and I are sitting on a bench while we have a view over the whole park.
"So... I really enjoy this evening, Gianna." Trevor still seems to be kind of nervous like he did for the whole evening. "I enjoyed it too, Trev. Thank you for this evening." I say.
He doesn't answer. He wiggles his leg a little before he grabs my face and kisses me.
