It has been a couple of days since the incident at the coffee shop.
Yesterday Jason came over begging for my forgiveness because he realized that O'Shea was only a friend. I decided to forgive him. After that we both went to the cinemas to watch some random movie.
I couldn't concentrate on the movie; I had someone on my mind the whole time. Thinking what it would be like to have him here, I know I shouldn't be thinking that but it was so hard just trying to get him out of my mind. When I woke up this morning I still had his face in my mind.
The only way to distract myself from him was to eat, but there was nothing to eat. Well it's time to go get some food for the week.
I arrived at Walmart and grabbed a shopping cart. The first isle that I walked down was the heathy isle that had all the vegetables and fruits, after that isle I went to the frozen meals, then the junk food isle.
I looked down at my shopping cart satisfied; I just hope I have enough money to pay for all of this. I went to the checkout the line was short not much people were shopping today. it was my turn to get served so I put them up on the counter for the man to scan, the man didn't say anything to me which was rather rude.

"The total cost of the items come to $300." The man said.

"Shit, I don't have that much money." I thought to myself. I only have $200 of cash in my wallet, I have to put things back.

"Can I put some food back? I don't have that amount with me right now."
The man just nodded.
I was about to grab my food to put it back but someone handed the man the money.

"What the fuck" I thought.

I looked to see who paid and guess who it was? It was the man who I wanted to get out of my mind. The man at the counter quickly grabbed the money, and called for the next person.

"O'Shea thank you so much for that, but it will take me weeks to pay you back." I said.
"Don't worry about it." He said in a calm voice.

"I can't just let you pay for my food"

"You can, and you will" said O'Shea.
I didn't say anything back knowing I lost the little argument. I just can't believe he just payed $300 for my food. I quickly packed my food back Into the cart and walked out of Walmart.
"I really appreciate what you did, how can I repay you?" I said.

"Maybe we can chill sometime?" O'Shea said.

"Sure, would you like to come over mine and have some dinner? That's only if you're not busy, I.. totally unders-tand." the words rushed out of my mouth.
Why the hell was I acting this way for, he probably thinks I'm in love with him which might be a bit true but I don't want him knowing that.
"I would love that." He laughed. I gave him the details on when to come and I also gave him my phone number. Then we split ways.

---- Later that day. ----
The dinner was nearly cooked; I decided to cook chicken with vegetables.
O'Shea said he would be here around 7pm, right now it was 6:50pm. Good I still have 10 minutes. I decided to clean the house a bit to make it look more decent.
The doorbell rung.MY heart started racing.
"Rosie calm down." I said really quietly to myself.
I took slow steps to the door and I slowly opened the door to see O'Shea. He was still wearing the same things he was wearing earlier this afternoon.
"Hello Rosie, you looking stunning." He grinned.
I blushed at his comment.
"Thank you and you don't look so bad yourself" I said. I moved out of the way so he could come in.

He looked around the small house, taking in every detail. Once he was finished he walked into the dining room.
"Wow, your house is very... small"
"Yeah tell me about it, but it's all I can afford right now." I said.
The timer bell of the oven rung, meaning that dinner was ready. I walked into the kitchen and pulled the chicken out of the oven, and walked back into the dining room and placed it on the table.
"That looks so good, I'm fucking starving." He said.
After dinner we decided to watch a comedy movie, on my laptop since I don't have a TV.
Watching a movie on the laptop meant both of us being squashed up against each other on the couch. He sat down first and leaned back, he tapped a spot on the couch that was right next to him. I sat down but I sat up straight rather than relaxing into the couch.
I turned my laptop and picked 'The Zoolander'. We started watching, and I was very uncomfortable sitting the way I was, I think O'Shea realised that because he wrapped his arm around my waist and pulled me in to relax against his body.
I didn't watch the movie, I was trying to calm down the butterflies and my stomach and me resting on him didn't help it because all I could here was him breathing and his heart beat.
The movie finished and O'Shea looked very tired. I looked at the clock on my wall and realised that it was 1 AM in the morning. I couldn't just let him drive home now he looked too tired to even move.
"O'Shea? Uh would you like to stay the night?" I said
"Yeah, if it's not that much trouble." He said
"No problem at all, uh you can sleep in my bed upstairs and I'll sleep on the couch." I said.
"Alright" he said tiredly as he walked up stairs.
I followed him up stairs, and showed him my bedroom.
"Nice room." O'Shea said.
He laid down on the bed, and looked up onto the roof.
"Rosie don't sleep downstairs on the couch, sleep here with me." He mumbled tiredly.
"I can't, I have a boyfriend." I said.
"Who cares about that hoe, just come sleep here. I promise I won't do anything."
I sighed and climbed into bed next to him, he wrapped his arms around me and pulled me in next to him.
"O'Shea" I said in a warning voice.
He didn't say anything back because he was already asleep.
