Caroline's POV

He's going to be here soon and I
don't know what I should wear... Do I actually get dressed or do I say in my pajamas? I seriously don't feel like going back to my room and getting back into normal people clothes... I thoroughly enjoy my sweat pants and t-shirt! Guess i've made my choice...
-------

I got the movies out a few minutes after and then the door-bell rang. He's here... I don't even know him, is this the right choice?

I walk to the door of my apartment and there he is, smiling and holding out gummybears and popcorn.

" Gummy bears and popcorn as promised" He said slightly smiling, I went to the side to let him through the door.

" How did you get into my building? I have to go down and let you in" I said puzzled

"Oh yeah, the nice lady next door let me in when she came home" he said as he sat the junk food on the counter

I never realized how amazing he looked in real light, his jaw line is strong in this light, his eyes brighter then before, his smirk is better then before... I've NEVER met anyone like him before.
"Caroline?" He said trying to get me out of my daze, shįt did I seriously just dream right in front of him? Thank god I wasn't drooling!
"Oh yeah sorry, I totally blanked out" I said apologetically
"That's ok! Believe me I do it more then I should, ok so should we get this movie on the road? Are we sitting out here or?" He asked kindly, in no way pushy.
"Oh yeah we can, the couch is super comfy I never want to leave it" I said laughing slightly as I grab a knife to open the gummy bears and chuck the popcorn things into the microwave
"I can see that, now I brought all the appealing movies I could grab, I'm not sure if you will like them but I'm sure you have others" he said as he started to ramble on.
" Alright let's see what you got!" I said excitedly
"Ok first, breakfast club"
"Nah I never liked that one"
"Sex in the city?"
"Did you like that one? I hated it..." I said
" kind of, but my sister left this one at my place and thought its girly enough for you to like it" he said jokingly as I punched him in the arm lightly.
"Ok how about this old beauty! Friends with Benefits?"
"I love that movie to death" I said wide eyed almost jumping up and down, he chucked at my immaturity
"That's a winner" he said as he gave me the movie to put into my Apple TV
"So how old are you?" I asked politely
"24" he said smiling slightly "you?"
"I just turned 18" I said grabbing the popcorn out of the microwave and giving it to him
"When is your birthday?" He said curiously
"May, 16th, nothing special, yours?" I asked quietly
"June, 12th, I guess I'm somewhat of a summer baby" he said popping a piece of popcorn into his mouth.
"Well your lucky! I hate being a spring baby, it's still so cold, and I can never do anything in my birthday"
------
In the middle of the movie I started to fall asleep, trying not to of course but the night at work killed me, all of a sudden I was being picked up and the next thing I knew I was being tucked into my bed and I could hear the door almost completely close, he didn't have to bring me in here but it was kind!
I passed out...
-------
Next morning/after noon around 11:30 I woke up and walked out to the living room and found him sound asleep on the couch, he had no blanket on, just out of kindness I felt his arm and he was very cold, I forgot to tell him where the blankets were, I'm a idiot sometimes I swear...
I walked to the linnon closet and grabbed a wool blanket, walked back out to the living room and draped it over me, same as he had just a few hours before.
I went to the kitchen and started cutting up fruit for the smoothies I was making for breakfast, if he liked smoothies fine and if not there's a stocked fridge..
Closing the kitchen door to be sure I didn't wake sleeping Derek.
After I made our smoothies I sat his in the freezer, I took mine and went to my room and opened my laptop and I instantly opened my email, there was a email from my realtor.
Dear, Olivia.
We have received another offer on your home, it's a nice family who I'm sure would take great care of it...
They have almost met your asking price of 650,000$. They have offered 630,000$
Let me know if you would like to accept the offer!
Sincerely, Larry Beloid
I closed my laptop and went back out of my room. I can't believe I'm selling my family home... As much as I know it has to happen it still breaks my heart... I grew up in it, that house contains the most precious memories.
I swiftly walk out from my smaller bedroom to the open living/dining area.
"Good morning" said a half awake Derek sitting on the couch rubbing his bright coloured eyes and yawning.
  I smile kindly, "you know you could have just woke me up last night, I'm sure I nearly killed your back"
He chuckled half asleep, this voice still containing the evidence that he was sleep just a few minutes before.
"Nah you looked piece full, I didn't have the heart to wake you" he said as his low voice vibrated in his throat, I couldn't help but stare... He was shirtless after all.
I had to snap out of the trance I was in as he continued talking
"And you aren't heavy at all." He said as he sexily smiled at me
"Well I'm not sure I believe you... I made smoothies for fun" I said as I turn around to the clean counter and reached the smoothy I made for him. He laughs to himself quietly as he shakes his shakes his head slightly.
"You didn't have to make me one, you have outdone your self!"
As he took the glass in his hand and I took my straw out of my mouth I was kind of surprised
"You know, you aren't the trouble maker my co-worker made you out to be" I exclaimed as I put my smoothy glass on the counter and pushed my self up.
