The time flew by and the weekend went fast that I forgot to blink, Ethan and I went on a date Saturday evening. We just went to the cinema then we had dinner together at a lovely restaurant. Nothing worth mentioning really.

"I will kill you." I heard a threatening scary voice saying. I opened my eyes widely to see those familiar chocolate brown eyes facing me. I turned to my left side then to my right side then to my left side again that I ended up falling of my bed to the floor in panic.

Then I heard someone bursting in a familiar deep laughter, I held my head from the hit I just got then sat up and saw Jason laying back on my bed. He was laughing loudly.

"That's not how people say good morning." I snapped then stood up and collapsed back with my bed.

"Oh really ?" I heard him say then I felt a grip tightening around my waist and something strong pulling me up. I opened my eyes in realization. Jason held me on top of him then flipped me to the other side of the bed.

I swear to god that our lips brushed when he was flipping me to the other side of the bed.

I stared at Jason with wide eyes when he turned around on his side so he has now facing me, with a boyish grin on his face. "Is that how people say good morning then ?" He raised me an eyebrow, he was really enjoying this whole situation.

He studied my face then bit his bottom lip, god.

"I'm just going back to sleep," I said and covered my head with a pillow.

"Oh come on, I was willing to have breakfast outside." He said and shoved the pillow off my face.

"Go then," I muttered keeping my eyes shut.

"Should I say it ? You're coming with me Faye ! I'm not going to have breakfast alone." He duh-ed me.

I opened one eye and looked at him, "Really ?"

"Yeah !"

"What time is it ?" I asked him and sat up.

"It's 6:30."

"My classes begin at nine," I groaned.

"So do mine,"

"Wait you're going to uni today ?" I asked him.

He nodded.

"Your hair is growing," I pointed looking to his head that is now covered with some hair.

"Yup, that medicine you got me really works." He smiled.

"Okay, I'm going to get ready." I said and stepped out of bed. I was wearing my short pyjamas and a long sleeved shirt. I noticed Jason's gaze on me and he quickly turned his head when I turned around.

It was 8am when we were in front of a lovely cafeteria, we quickly walked in since the weather was cold. I had my dark blue leather jacket on and a matching scarf around my neck, and yet I felt cold.

The heater was on inside of the cafeteria so that made warm, "This place feels like home," I commented after Jason and I took a seat.

The cafeteria wasn't large and it wasn't modern either, it had brown chairs made of pallets and matching tables.
It was busy with silent customers that didn't make much noise, you wouldn't hear everyone's conversations while you're sitting.

The waitress, a mid aged lady approached us and asked us about about our order. I opened my mouth to speak but Jason shut me off by saying, "Two café latte, two chocolate cupcakes, two pancakes, one with strawberry syrup on top and the other one with chocolate." He ordered.
