 Lucy's POV

After all he had already done for me I couldn't believe I had asked him more. I couldn't believe I asked him to stay and his response surprised me even more, "Of course". These words kept replaying over and over in my mind; I hadn't even noticed he was hugging me until I smelled his cologne on his shirt. I immediately hugged him back, burying my head in the crook of his neck, taking in more of his scent. He had done so much for me that I didn't want to ask him to stay and I didn't want to bother him with my issues, but I needed him, I was afraid to be anywhere without him. What if Adam decided to come back? What if he hurt me more than he already had? I still needed Ian by my side. A part of me knew that I'd probably need him by my side for the rest of my life so I knew I was protected from anyone and anything. That part I tried to ignore but every times I tried to reject those kinds of thoughts, they came back right away, haunting me harder. I didn't want to believe that I could possibly be in love with my cast mate, especially because it was Ian. I decided to bury those feelings deeper in my heart every time but they'd always surface again, forcing me to ignore and deny them even more each time, but I just couldn't forget them. I was fooling myself by telling myself that those feelings would disappear with time and that I'd find someone else who would make me feel that way about them and move on from Ian. No matter how hard I'd try though, they would always be there, telling my heart what to do even if my head was telling otherwise such as distancing myself from him. So far, my head always won but something was telling me that would change. I was pulled out of my messy thoughts when I heard a knock on my bedroom door. It was of course Ian. I offered him to stay in the guest room last night as I obviously wasn't going to invite him to sleep in my bed with me, not the first night anyway.

"Yeah?" I said, covering my body with my thin sheets as I saw the handle being turned slowly. I wasn't naked, but I was wearing a white top that was semi see-through. Ian entered in my room already dressed.

"Good morning Goose" he said happily.

"Good morning Shmian" I replied with the same tone. As he walked by, I noticed a growing boyish smile of his on his face. He sat down next to me on the edge of the bed.

"What?" I ask, trying to figure out what he was smiling at. Still looking at me, he opened his mouth to speak.

"Because I know you too well, I know that you can't live without your daily coffee dose, which you haven't had in three days. I'm actually surprised you haven't gone a little loopy. So, I figured that your favourite coffee from Starbucks would make you happy. Am I right?" he said calmly with a smirk on his face. A smile grew on my face as I imagined the taste of the coffee in my mouth, running down the back of my throat.

"Ian you don't have to do that, the closest Starbucks shop is at least at 15 minutes from here," I said. I didn't want to bother him with a long car ride only for a coffee, even if I needed it as much as I do right now, which he apparently noticed.

"What if I want to?" he told me. Seeing that I was still hesitant, he continued to talk "Luce I promise you, it doesn't bother me at all. It's no problem."
