Tristan POV
I am in love with her and I may be just talking crazy but I have the strongest feelings for her.

I can't explain it, she didn't run away when she met my father, didn't say I had to put I'm in a nursing home. Other girls have said he's too much and you shouldn't have to take care of him. But I want to, he's my dad. Although when I was younger he wasn't the greatest, his sickness has made it almost impossible for him to even remember my mother sometimes.

I miss my mom, when she was around, I felt the most at home. My father was abusive towards her and I, my younger brother hadn't been born just yet, but I don't think I'm ready to let Xander know that just yet. I don't want her to pity me, I just want to be normal.

"I'm not sure if she feels the same" he says out loud. I decide to call her.

"Hey my lady how are you?"

"I'm good babe how are you"

"I'd be better if you were here with me"

She laughs "I love to come over and cuddle. School has been, kinda rough for me."

I smile loving the sound of her voice "Don't play with me Xan, if you're coming over, come over now, like right now.''

''I don't think I like your tone mister. Don't make me have to punish you." We both laugh, '' Don't threaten me with a good time baby.'' I smile at my phone.

"I'll be over soon, okay?''

"I'll be patiently waiting.'' We say our goodbyes. I hope she doesn't think I'm moving too fast. These last few months have been challenging but I'm willing to take all of it as long as she's with me

Ding dong

"She's here!'' I rush downstairs to open the door. As soon as I open the door  I pull her into my arms. I love the way she feels. I don't care if I sound like a creep she's my women, I should be creepy when it comes to her.

"Someone missed me'' she says into my chest

"I sure did, I mean didn't you miss me? I don't understand how you couldn't, I mean look at me?'' I stand back and stare at her.

"You okay mister narcissist?''

''I'm better now that you're here love'' she blushes and puts her head down

''Don't hide that blush from me baby'' I lean in and kiss her lightly

"Let's watch some TV babe" I ѕυggeѕт walking into the living room
'' You know what? Let's go to my room and watch it, I want some alone time with you" I say in her ear.

She bites her lip and follows me upstairs.

We get to my room and she starts looking around, at the pictures on my wall.

"Who's she?'' she asks pointing at a picture of my mother "She's beautiful"

"That's my mother, she died when I was 12.''

"I am so sorry I shouldn't have asked..''

''Babe it's okay it was a while ago, I miss her everyday though''

''You have her eyes'' I look at her and smile

''She would have liked you, she was outgoing and sassy. You two would have gotten along well"

Xander turns to me and holds my hand, "I would have loved to meet her''

''How about that TV then huh?'' I didn't want to make it seem like I don't want to talk about my mom but I don't. It's still a touchy subject for me.

We lay in my bed watching "Bob's Burgers'' and I look down and Xan and she's sleep, I snuggle closer to her to make it comfortable.

I wasn't lying though my mom really would have loved her.

Later that night

Xander wakes up from her nap and yawns "Hey there sleeping beauty, how'd you sleep?''

She covers her mouth before speaking "Better than expected, you re quite comfortable Tristan" I laugh

''Why are you holding your hand up to your mouth?''

''My breathe probably smells like ass, I don't want you to be disgusted by it''

I take her hand away from her mouth and replace it with my lips. She deepens the kiss. I flip her over so that I'm on top of her

"Wait babe, oh wait we have to stop... before we go too far'' I pull myself away from her reluctantly and nod agreeing with her.

"I have to go it's so late, Sean's probably sent out a search party." He probably has knowing him

"No, don't leave me yet.'' she giggles oh I love that sound

"I have to baby, I have class tomorrow. But I'll see you later okay?'' she leans down to kiss me.

'' Okay, I'll walk you out''. We get the door and she pecks me one more time before leaving. I watch her get into her car and drive off.

I smile on my way back to my room.

Xander: I made it home, goodnight sexy :)

To Xander: Good night love.

The next Morning

I woke up early the next morning to get ready for work, I did my hygiene thing and walked into my fathers room to give him his medicine. Along with having dementia he had high blood pressure remembering to take his medication was the hardest part of the day for me. "Dad, wake up you have to take your med's before I leave for work." On usual days he would fight me trying to give him his medicine but not today. "Okay, I'll make your breakfast and then I'll be back for lunch." He nodded and laid back in bed.

My phone goes off, I look at the caller ID and see that it's Parker from my job "Hello?"

"Tristan aren't you supposed to me here by now?" I look at the clock and it read 8:30 am

"Sh*t! Look stall I have to make some food for my dad before i leave, if Kev asks where I am, tell him I'm in the bathroom taking a dump. He won't ask questions."
"Alright."

"Thanks man."

I rush to make my father's breakfast and walk out the door.  I work at a construction company where, I build and often demolish houses, buildings and sometimes bridges.

"Thank god, you're here. I don't think I could have held Kev off for much longer."

"Thanks man, I must have been a bit slow this morning, I don't know."

"Well, whatever it was as long as your here now, i don't mind."

The day for me went by quickly, all i could think about was Xander, she cared so much about how I felt last night. It had been  a long time since someone asked me about them, not even Emily asked me about them in the time we dated. It only made my love for her stronger and it scared me a little bit.
