Matías POV

❀⊱┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄⊰❀

My eyes slowly fluttered open even though I was still extremely tired from the past week because I hadn't slept much. Last night I slept a little better though knowing she could finally sleep without having a nightmare, but waking up before her was my favorite part of our mornings. She always tried to sleep as far away from me as possible to give me room but in the middle of the night, she'd always scoot closer to me and wrap her legs and arms around me. I learned it was easier for me to just lay on my back because she'd keep doing it regardless of how I slept and that was the most comfortable way for me to lay.

I looked down at her and smiled to see she was peacefully sleeping with her hand and head rested on my chest as she always was. I took every chance I could to admire her while she was sleeping, she never liked me to stare at her for too long when she was awake because she felt like I was looking through her flaws, but little did she know she didn't have a single one. I thought everything about her was perfect, every feature, her smile, laugh and her eyes were my favorite thing about her. They truly indicated how unique and special she was in this world, she's like the world's rarest flower and I would do anything in the world to keep it safe. She began to stir which means she was waking up and just as I thought she woke up looking up at me smiling.

Whenever she looked at me it felt like my heart was going to burst out of my chest, "enredadera." I laughed and kissed the top of her head, "I am not, just admiring precioso arte." That made her blush so she put her head back down, I untangled our legs and pulled her further up slightly so we were at eye level. "Eres linda cuando te sonrojas," I said to her in a seductive tone on purpose, I leaned forward to kiss her and she leaned back. I looked up at her in confusion, she had a panicked expression on her face.

"I have morning breath," she began to try to get out of the bed but I pulled her back laying her on her back hovering over her, propping myself up with one hand by her head. "Mi amor, I don't care," she smiled and grabbed my chin pulling me down to her meeting her lips with mine. Every time I kissed her it was like the first time all over again, it was as if time stopped and I got weak in the knees good thing I was already on the bed otherwise I'd fall over. I could only focus on how soft her lips felt against my own, how addictively she invaded all my senses.

As soon as I went to move my other hand under her shirt the door burst open and I was mentally cursing myself because why don't we ever lock the fucking door, you'd think we would've learned our lesson by now. We broke apart and looked towards the door and saw Aurora, Mateo, Antonio, Sebastián, and Nicolás standing in our doorway and I felt Génesis tuck her face in my shoulder from embarrassment.

"Explain to me why you never fucking knock?!" I snapped at them this was the third time but it was partially our fault we never locked the door, but in our defense, we expect people to fucking knock. "Why don't you guys ever lock the door?!" Rora said back which I expected her to say, she was indeed the smartass of the group. "I think I'm going to be fucking sick," I heard Nic say from the back of the group. I rolled my eyes moving off of Génesis and sat back against the headboard and she leaned over to put her head on my lap to hide an obvious problem I was trying to ignore.

"What do you want?" She spoke up saying to the group. "Well, I need Mat we have a few things to finish before we leave for São Paulo," Mateo said and I knew what he was talking about we had some finalizations to go over with Mr. Reyes about our shipments, etc., with everything that had been going on it slipped my mind. "And we," Rora spoke up next motioning towards her and their brothers, "need conejita to go pick up Abuela so we can take her to the house its finally ready and the doctor said she can do in house recovery." She sat up some making sure to still cover me but my problem was gone now.
