We're only human

Chapter three

I felt weak from his  gaze, his hands on my most insecure parts of my body, his slow, calm  breathing. The only thing I could think about was his lips. His lips on  mine. Slowly consuming me, sharing an intense desire for each other.

And then, he stepped back. Gave me a grin, brushed his hair back.

"What's wrong?" He started. "What were you thinking there?"

I stood silently.

"Did you think that I would do something?" He said sitting on the sofa.

"I did."

"Did you want me to do something?"

"No." I said angrily.

He chuckled.

"You are so cute."

I started to walk towards the bathroom. I felt embarrassed. The way I stood there, thinking he wanted me.

"Oh, sweetie, where are you going?"

"Don't call me that." I spit out.

Why  am I here? Why did he invite me here? Why did we drink? Is this a joke  to him? I just wanted to have a nice vacation, and he ruined it. How can  I look at him now.

Or  was he just being nice inviting me here? Maybe he didn't want me. Maybe  he wanted just to hang out. As friends. And I ruined it. Maybe he  stopped because he thought that I would, do it?

I started spiraling. I can't go out there. I feel stupid. Why did I do it?

"You okay in there?" He knocked on the doors.

I tried to breathe, calm down.

"Yes," I opened the door. "I think I'm going to bed."

"Listen, about before..."

"I don't want to talk about it." I interrupted. "I'm really tired, can I go to bed?"

He  nodded and showed me the spare room where I would sleep. He brought my  suitcase in, left me some towels and walked towards the doors.

"Sleep  as much as you want, I will go to the gym in the morning, so if I'm not  in, make yourself at home, eat whatever you want. Goodnight."

He left. I stood there alone, with my embarrassment. I felt sick.

I managed to get out of my clothes and get into bed.

*The next day. 7.40*

I heard him locking the doors. It was silent. He went to the gym.

I need to get up. Take a shower. Try to forget what happened yesterday. Maybe I'm just overthinking.

I sat up and saw something on the end table. It was a note from him.

"I'm at the gym. Will be back at 9."

Great,  some alone time to gather my thoughts. After the shower I felt better,  washed my hair, his shower gel smells nice. I looked into the mirror and  at the bottom corner saw a note.

"The toothbrush is for you."

I opened the mirror door, there was another note attached to the toothbrush.

"You said you forgot yours."

Cute.

After  getting ready, I finally walked to the kitchen. The morning sun made  the place look cozy, warm. On the kitchen island, there was another  note.

"Take these. From hangover."

I smiled. He is sweet, what can I say.

Poured  myself a cup of coffee, tastes good. Decided to snoop around in the  cupboards. Damn... there are so many different boxes of cereal. What a  maniac. I tried one. Not bad. Too much sugar though.
