I wake up to Lorenzo's head in the crook of my neck. His arms are wrapped around me, I have no idea how I'm still comfortable like this. My right arm is draped around my stomach onto his side while my left hand is on the bed where his pillows are. My legs are spread and one of his legs is in between them.

I bring my hand up to scratch his head. Why? I don't even know but I like head scratches. Well I would like my head to be scratched from someone. "Lorenzo."

Nothing. So I try again, "Lorenzo, wake up." Scratching his hair softly he hums.

"Wake up, we have stuff to do." Lie. We have nothing to do today, I guess we could go explore or something.

"No." He mumbles then kisses my neck. Shit. His morning voice is so attractive. All he said was one word but,shit.

"Yes, what do you want to do today?" I ask.

"Mhm m mhm." He hums, I'm taking that as I don't know.

"Okay, well we could-" I cut myself of when he kisses my neck again. "Uh, we could go exploring or something." I suggest.

"Mhm, sounds good." He says, then moves his head so it's laying on my chest like last night. Then he kisses my chest. He was doing that a lot last night. I was trying not to pay attention to it because he just had a nightmare.

"When do you want to leave?" I question him while he's still littering that same spot on my chest with soft kisses.

"I don't care. What time is it?" I pick up one of our phones from the side table, I don't bother to check which one.

"Nine thirty." I reply.

"Mhm,okay." Then his phone starts ringing.

I pick up the phone and it's his mom. "It's your mom." After I say it's his mom he shoots up and I give the phone to him.

"Mamà, ¿Estás bien?"
(Mom, Are you okay?)

She says something which makes him lay back down onto my chest. Im guessing she said yes because he went from very tense to not tense at all in a matter of seconds.

He has the phone against one ear while the other one is laying against me. From time to time he gives me soft kisses on my chest.

"Mhm, I'll tell them." He says.

She responds with something, I can hear her talking since the phone is closer to me but I can't piece together what she's saying.

"Sí, mañana vuelvo a casa."
(Yes,I'm coming home tomorrow)

He pauses for a minute.

"te amo mamá."
(I love you mom)

She says something back then he responds.

"Está bien, me despido."
(Okay,I will bye.)

He hangs up the phone then says, " my mom says hi." That's nice.

"Tell her I said hi." I reply.

"Mhm." Another kiss. "You didn't ever talk with my mom did you?"
