(Diego's POV)

I kissed him. I kissed Mason. My lips touched his. He didn't pull away, he wasn't disgusted by me. I was on cloud nine, driving home. We even agreed to meet in the morning for us to pick up his car. Thankfully my dad didn't have work tomorrow so I'd be able to use his car.

The only bad part, really, was that he never confirmed that he likes me back. I really love Mason so I'm fully willing to wait for an answer. Maybe I could find a way to convince him that I'm trustworthy. Next week, Mason would have the rink on Tuesday and Thursday, I could probably watch him on those days.

Soon I got home and parked the car. I got out, went inside the house, and went upstairs towards my bedroom. Until I was stopped. “Diego! Mijo, what are you doing up this late?” Thank goodness, it was my mom. If it had been my dad, things would be way different. “Lo siento, mamá. I was just out with some friends.”

She nodded her head. “Okay. Now go to bed, Mijo. Buenas noches.” I nodded and left to go to my room. “Buenas noches, mamá.” I told her on the way. I got to my bedroom and got ready to go to sleep. Once I was ready, I slipped into bed and drifted off to sleep.

When I woke up in the morning, I texted Mason about getting his car and he responded quickly. We made a plan for me to pick him up in about thirty minutes and take him to his car. I'm so excited to see him again. I wonder if he even remembers last night though, he did seem pretty drunk.

I quickly got ready and was able to get going when it was time. I drove to his house and waited for him to come out. A few minutes later he came out to the car and got in. “Hey, Mason.” He huffed and didn't say anything back so I just began driving.

“Hey, uh…about last night-” “No, it's fine. I get it. I'll, uh, give you an answer when I'm ready.” He told me and I nodded. “I…I don't know how to convince you that I'm not like the other hockey players.” I admit to him and he laughs at me.

“You'll think of something, I'm sure.” He reassured me and it gave me an idea. “Oh, come see me at practice tomorrow.” “Mm, I'll think about it.” He told me and the conversation stopped there. We got to his car and he got out. “Bye, Diego. Thanks for the ride.” He smiled before leaving me.

I waited for him to get to his car before I set off and drove back home. The rest of the day went by fast, I really had nothing to do for the rest of the day. I just had to wait until tomorrow when I could finally see Mason once again.
