Melody's POV

I tossed and turned in my sleep, I could feel myself sweating. My body jolted quickly as I had woken up. My eyes heavier than a bull. I sat up checking the time 4:55, I read on the small clock that sat next to a day old glass of water.

I swung my feet off my bed and onto the cold wooden floor. Making my way to the modern styled bathroom, Ugh. I feel sticky, I thought. I ran warm water into the white tub, before stepping in.

I sighed, my mind drifting into its own. I wonder how that boy's doing. I grabbed sented soap as I washed my soft skin.

After my warm bath, I grabbed my phone and the napkin that the boy handed me earlier. Dialing the numbers. What do I say? I questioned my self. I felt myself get nervous as I nibbled on my bottom lip.

'Hey, it's melody.' I texted, I started walking towards my room before I felt my phone vibrate. DING ! I looked down 'xxx-xxx-xxxx, messages' I read the messanger notification . 'Hey darling, why are you up so late?' That was a quick response. I clicked on it, my fingers scrambled across my screen. 'I couldn't go back to sleep, and I'm kinda hungry' I sent the message as I felt my stomach rumble.

'I could always come by and drop off something for you' I read the message as I felt my self cheese, looking at myself with a cheeky smile. 'I am a little hungry' I confessed. 'Okay princess, I'll be on my way soon, what do you have the taste for?' I thought for a second. 'Surprise me'  I felt my chest tense up and vibrate and as I giggled. 'Anything for you' he responded.

I sat on the couch reading 'Blood list' once again, before I heard a soft knock.
Hurrying on my feet I peeked through the small eye on the door. After confirming who it was, I opened the door to be greeted with the man from yesterday. 'Hello darling' he said as his pearly white teeth flashed at me.

"Hi" I said quietly, moving out the way to enter him into my apartment. As he moved past me he smelt AMAZING. "You smell so good" I complimented, looking up at him as he toward me.

"You look good." He replied. My face quickly turned a bright red as I stared at him in utter shock. "I apologize, I had no intentions of making you uncomfortable." He said in a low voice.

"No, no," I repeat. "Thank you, I really appreciate it" I cleared the misunderstanding. "Hey, what's your name?" I asked after noticing his name was never brought up. "Roman" he said, his eyes staring deep into mines.

Roman's POV.

About an hour and a half later, we were both on the couch, her head on my shoulder as we watched princess and the frog. "Princess?" I asked, looking down at her. I took a deep breath before slowly getting up. I carefully picked up melody bridal style , searching for her room. I assumed it was the one with the open door, and a soft aesthetic.

I sat her down softly and brought the covers over her shoulders. "Goodnight darling" I whispered before searching for a pen and paper.
I made sure my hand writing was neat before writing her a note.

Melodys POV.

It had been 10:22 in the morning, I looked around, I was lost as of why I was in my bed. I could've sworn I fell asleep on the couch. I told myself.

Standing up onto the cold tiles, I saw a note on my white door.

Sorry I didn't wake you up,
You seemed like you were sleeping pretty good.
I left you a surprise on your kitchen counter. Hope you like it, text me when you can.
- Roman

I raced to kitchen as I spotted a light pink paper bag. I walked up to it ,  curiosity getting the best of me. Opening it, I found a book. I looked at the cover ' sweetness ' .

I grabbed my phone out of my pockets, sending a him quick text. 'Thanks Roman ❤️'  he quickly responded with 'N0 problem' I walked out of the kitchen with the book in hand. I thought to myself , dose he ever sleep? He's always up. I chuckled at that thought.
