REAL LIFE

Nell was out with her friends, so I had the house to myself to the night. As much as I wanted to resist, I kept reading the comments about my surprise release. It wasn't as negative as I expected, but the hate comments were certainly there

Suddenly, I heard a knock on my door. I got up to answer it and saw Leo on the other side with a bag in his hands

"What are you going here?" I asked, letting him in "It's 1am."

"Well, you told me once that you get anxiety when you release a song and sometimes forget to take care of yourself, so I'm here to take care of you." Leo said

I went protect but he cut me off "When was the last time you ate an actual meal of substance?"

I blushed as he guided me to a stool on my kitchen island and began unloading his groceries "Fine." I fake groaned "I guess you're right. What's on the menu Chef Jones?"

"My speciality. Pasta with marinara sauce." He said in a horrible Italian accent and we both laughed

As we waited for the pasta to cook, we made small talk and listened to soft music in the background when I asked "What are we?"

"That's up to you, darling. You know I like you. I have since the moment we met, but I won't rush you into anything you're not ready for." Leo said

"I think... I'm ready for this." I said

"Yeah?"

"Yeah." I whispered as our lips met in a soft kiss. I had never been kissed with such love and passion in all of my relationships

Once we broke apart, I said "Leo."

"Gia?"

"I think your pasta is about to burn." I said

"Shit!" He exclaimed, quickly rushing away to pull the pot away from the heat as to not ruin our dinner
