It was a good day. I wasn't anxious at all, I had fun and I've seen the most beautiful places today. Plus, me and Nicola didn't fight at all. We just had a good time and honestly I felt bad that this day was over.

Walking down to my apartment building we were excitedly talking about the food. The pasta and the wine were amazing I gotta admit. I'm not big on alcohol, but I liked this wine so much. And it didn't get me drunk.

"The pasta was amazing", I repeated over and over again, "I don't think I had something this good in my life".

"I can make you a better one", he said proudly.

"Oh, really?", I smirked, "can I take you as my personal chef now?".

"Let's not do too much", he laughed.

"Oh, come on", I took his hand without even realising and I hold him closer, "I wanna try your cooking sometime".

Nicola's eyes move from my face down to his hand that I was still holding and he tightened the grip of his hand to hold me even closer. I look down and then realised what was going on. I took to the side trying to hide my rosy cheeks from him, but I never pull my hand.

Why am I letting him hold my hand? I thought to myself, why am I letting him to show me around and have fun with me? I look down and a small smile appeared on my face. And why am I actually feeling good around him?

We finally reached my building and I let go off his hand. I turn to face him and both our faces weren't really pleased with the separation. But it's way too early for us to do whatever. So, like it or not, we gotta stop here.

"I had a great time..surprisingly", I said and I see him smile from my comment, "I hope you'll keep your promise and not act like a jerk on Monday".

"I am a man of my word", he put his hand on his chest making me chuckle, "plus, now that I saw how cool you are..I don't think I can act like a jerk to you".

"Your strategy failed".

"Miserably", we both laughed after he said that and Nicola comes closer to me. He placed his hand on my cheek and we lock eyes.

It felt like the time stopped and it was just me and him. No one else, no one to look at us, no one to stop us. At that moment I wanted him to kiss me so bad, worse than the situation with Paulo, and I wanted the kiss to be passionate.

I wanted to share this moment with him. And by the look on his face..Nicola wanted it too. We are two people, who want the same thing, but we'll never admit it to the other. We both want to connect, but we are both holding back at some point.

"I'm..sorry", he pulls back, "I'll catch you up in Monday, okay?".

"Yeah...sure..", I cracked a small smile on my face, even tho I didn't felt like smiling at all.

Nicola waved at me before turning his back to walk away and I was left standing there looking at his back. Shit...why do I feel so..bad? I thought to myself and I let out a sigh. I turn towards my building to walk in, when I noticed some faces staring at me through the glass doors of my building.

I made a step back, then I move closer to see better who it was. The faces immediately turn the other way, when they noticed me looking at them. I immediately stormed into the building and I stand right in front of them. They were all wearing sunglasses like I won't recognise them with them.

"Why are y'all here?", I spoke to them.

And finally all my friends put down their glasses. Trent, Jude, Pedri, Pablo, Jamal and Richarlison look down with guilt written all over their faces. I was so mad at them to the point that I wanted to slap all of them.
