The next morning I woke up with a blanket on the lower half of my body. Where was I? Oh yeah, my hotel room. I have to leave this Sunday, maybe I should start packing?

No, there's sounds around the corner. Was someone in my hotel room? How did I even get here? I don't remember feeding my cats last night..

Sitting up in my bed, I rubbed the sleep out of my eyes and noticed I was still in my dress. Oh yeah, the date.

When I stood from my bed and peaked around the corner, I saw Monty making coffee at the counter.

He looked up after hearing the bed creaking and smiled my way. "Morning, sleepy head. You fell asleep on the ride here and I was too tired to take myself back to my hotel. I hope you didn't mind that I stayed over?"

I blinked, opening my mouth and exercising my jaw before speaking. "No.. it's fine. Where are my cats?"

As if on command, Puma and Lion jumped from the window on the other side of my bed and mowed, walking over to rub their sides on my legs.

I smiled and bent down to pet them. I wouldn't be able to survive this world without looking forward to seeing my two companions at the end of the day.

I could tell they needed something more than attention, so I walked over to where I kept their food and water bowls.

I refilled their empty food bowl and emptied the water, filling it with fresh and cold tap water.

"Do you want me to order breakfast?" Monty asked, grabbing a plastic cup to fill with coffee.

I nodded. "There's a lobby downstairs that gives free breakfast. Can you grab a muffin for me?"

After putting his creamer in the cup, Monty hummed a reply and grabbed a key card. "I'll be back in a minute."

He closed the door behind him and I stood up, recentering myself.

Okay. Last night I won the Piston Cup series. I'm sure it's trending on social media but I'll watch that later. We went to Demeter's for dinner and I ate pasta. Then when he was taking me home, we..

I reached for my lips, feeling the soft cracks in the tender skin. God, I wanted to do it again. I wanted to feel him just a moment longer. But I couldn't, that was only our first date. There is so much I don't know about him yet-

For now, I would just treat this as a normal lazy day. I don't have anything planned but I probably should pack before tomorrow. I turned to my suitcase that held my 'home clothes' and grabbed shorts and a slightly oversized sweatshirt.

I went to the bathroom to change out of my dress. I was surprised it stayed in place while I slept. Brushing out my hair, I cleaned my face and put moisturizer on my skin. I sprayed some perfume on before leaving to scavenge for some long socks that I wasn't sure I brought from the last state I was at.

Thankfully I found them just as Monty walked in. They were cat-themed socks and went up to my calves.

"I didn't know what type of muffin you liked, so I grabbed the (your favorite berry) muffin. Is that fine?" He asked, holding a muffin and banana as he closed the door behind him.

I nodded, taking the muffin from him and opening the package around it.

Monty peeled the banana and ate it as one would do with food, and I ate my own breakfast.

I'm never a morning person, so it wasn't weird that I wasn't fully awake as I got ready for the day. But today, I felt a little more tired than I used to.

How long did we stay up last night? That didn't matter. It was almost noon already, so if anything, I got at least ten hours of sleep.

I sat on the foot of my bed, watching my two cats roll around in my blankets and bathe in the sunlight from the open window.
