Another hour passes and I was honestly so exhausted and about to pass out. I lay down next to him and we cuddle. He wraps his whole body around me and I fall asleep.
It's now the next day and I wake up to the bright light from Sebastian's window. I wake up to the beautiful sunrise. I look at him and he wakes up too. "The sunrise is always so beautiful." He says.
"Yes it is." I reply in a tired voice.
"But definitely not as beautiful as you."
I blush and he kisses me on the forehead. "I just wanna stay here with you forever." I say.
"Me too, Julie, me too."
We both smile and he hugs me even tighter. I decide to get up and go to the bathroom to get dressed and wash my face off. I check my phone and there's as couple missed calls and text messages from Matilda.
Matilda: Hey Juliet!
Matilda: So what have you and your man been doing?
Matilda: I hope you're having fun bestie
Matilda: Still down to go to the mall together today to pick out cute outfits for Florida?
Juliet: Hey, I am so sorry, I just saw this. But yes! Let's go to the mall later today!
Matilda: Good morning girl! It's okay, and yes! Let's go!
I put my phone down and continue to brush my teeth. I hear a knock at the door. "Hey beautiful, are you dressed and everything? Is it okay if I come in?"
"Yeah, I am. Yes you can!"
Sebastian walks in and I am still brushing my teeth. He gets his toothbrush and toothpaste and starts brushing his teeth right beside me. We both look at each other and start laughing. "So this is what it looks like to live with each other huh?" He asks.
"Yep. Seems like it," I smile.
We both finish brushing our teeth and go to the kitchen. Sebastian starts making me breakfast without even asking which is so sweet. He makes me eggs, sausage, hash browns, and a piece of toast with some milk. I finish eating and we both just sit next to each other cuddling on the couch and he turns on some music. I tell him that I am going to the mall today and Matilda is helping me pick out clothes for Florida. "Hey, is it okay if I leave in a couple hours to get ready with Matilda?"
"Yes, of course beautiful."
I lay down next to Sebastian and he just holds me. We decide to watch some more movies together for the next couple hours before I leave. Hours later, I decide to get up from the couch and I tell Sebastian that I am gonna leave now. "We should definitely do this again Sebastian, I love staying the night with you."
"Yes! Me too beautiful. We definitely will spend all the time together when we are in Florida."
"Yes we sure will," I agree.
I grab all my things and he walks me out the door. "I can take you home beautiful."
"Oh, are you sure? Matilda said she could probably pick me up. And she might want to meet you."
"Wait what? No! Please don't, I can take you home!"
"Uh... Sebastian, why are you yelling?"
"I am so sorry. I just get social anxiety sometimes and I want to take you home so she doesn't have to drive all the way here, you know?" He says frightened.
"Oh, okay... yeah sure."
"I am sorry Julie. I didn't mean to scare you or yell. It won't happen again."
I ignore what he says. He yelled at me again. What's his problem? And why does he act so suspicious? Especially when I bring up Matilda. We both get in the car and drive to my apartment in silence. I text Matilda telling her that I am on my way home now. We get to my apartment and once again, he parks all the way down. I still don't say anything... and to be honest, I regret not saying anything at all. "I hope you have a great rest of your day beautiful. I'm sorry again, really. I will text you okay? See you tomorrow."
"Thank you Sebastian. I'll see you, bye."
I get out of the car and he quickly gets out and gives me a hug goodbye. I walk up to my apartment and look to see if he has driven away yet. He hasn't, he makes sure I always walk in safely, which is what I like about him. He is very protective, but he also seems to have anger issues too. I get inside and he finally drives away. Matilda is already waiting for me on the couch. "Hey," I say to her.
"Oh my goodness. Hey bestie! How was your sleepover with your boyfriend?"
"It was really good actually, I had fun."
"That is great girl! I am so happy for you!"
"Thank you," I say trying to smile even though I kept thinking about the fact that Sebastian yelled at me again.
"So... did y'all make out or you know, do anything?" Matilda asks laughing.
"Uh... Yeah we made out and that was it. We talked a lot, looked at the stars, and he held me in his arms and stuff. It was actually pretty amazing and really romantic."
"Aw girl that is adorable. That sounds pretty amazing, lucky you. My boyfriend hasn't talked to me in a couple of days, I think it's because he is so busy with work and he said his grandpa died."
"Yeah. And oh my, I hope he talks to you soon. I'm sure he will."
