timothée left to stop by his apartment and change,  offering to get breakfast on the way back. he returned almost an hour later.  

"you remembered my coffee order?" maia sat across from him, examining her cup.

"we get the same thing." 

it was pure, for a second. his citrusy scent mixed with her floral scent, creating a comforting atmosphere between them. addictive almost.

the two exchanged a look, causing her heart to beat faster. desire filled her mind as she watched him. she broke eye contact and looked away anxiously, pushing her feelings aside. 

he studied her and noticed her expression change.

"what? why are you staring at me?" she laughed.

"i'm just looking at you." he argued, very obviously teasing, "what? i can't look at you?" 

her eyes rolled, but the blush on her cheeks spread as her smile grew. 

"i hate you." she chuckled as she looked up at him.

"no you don't."

which was true, she could never hate him. 

she hated that she was always nervous around him. it was obvious he wanted her as much as she wanted him right? she hoped she wasn't being unrealistic, but if they both yen for each other, what was stopping them?

the turning of the locks on her door caught their attention.

several seconds later, faye barged in. stopping in her tracks as she noticed timothée "maia-" timothée tilted his head and waved. " and timothée chalamet." faye stretched out her words as she read the room.

the smile was no longer hideable. "faye, i didn't know you were coming!" maia exclaimed, ignoring the confused look on her face.

timothée watched the back of maia's figure as she moved around nervously as if she had just been caught.

"sorry, i should have texted. i think i forgot a pair of heels here from a while ago." she tried to ignore the blatant tension in the room. maia nodded and faye took off into the bedroom. returning only a few moments later, "do you have an outfit planned yet?"

maia sighed, "i don't even know if i'm going." to this, faye through her arms down in an argument. "i went out yesterday! that was enough honestly." 

"okay, that was one time though! maia, pete davidson invited us. we can't say no"

timothée watched as the two girls went back and forth.

faye's eyebrows raised as an idea came to her, "bring timothée with you then."

maia spun around, "what?"

"timothée do you want to accompany maia tonight?"

his eyes turned to maia, with an embarrassed look on her face. "well if maia wants to go, i'll go with her." their eyes turned to maia awaiting an answer.

"fine." her expression changed as she watched them smile in victory.

faye walked towards the front door, "thank you."
