Unexpected Visits

-Moe's POV-

Vanessa fell asleep on my shoulder, and I didn't know what to do. My heart started racing and I couldn't control it.
I turned the TV off, and carefully grabbed her.

Picking her up wasn't easy since I didn't want to wake her. I carried her to my bedroom and set her down cautiously underneath my covers.

-Vanessa's POV-

I awoke in a different place. I was no longer on Morgan's couch, I was in a bed. I felt her close beside me, breathing deeply.

She's asleep. Great.

I tried to take the covers off of me, but then an arm wrapped around my side. It was Morgan's. She pulled me closer to her, and I complied. I didn't want to wake her, and it was sort of cute. We stayed there for about 30 minutes, then she woke up.

"Good morning." I said. Moe jerked her hand away, and I laughed. I turned my position so I was facing her.

"Sorry, I swear I didn't mean to." she explained.

"It's okay, but I have to get back home and take a shower and stuff. Game day!" I screeched. Morgan laughed, and pulled the covers off of us.

I got up and walked out of the bedroom with her. I grabbed my bag and my car keys.

"How are you supposed to get there?" I asked her.

"I...don't know honestly." she said.

"Let me give you a ride!" I suggested.

"No really it's fi-" she started. I grabbed her hand to make her stop talking.

"It's the least I can do, thanks, for last night." I said.

"No problem." she replied. I held on to her hand and we walked to my car.

-Vanessa's POV-

I dropped Morgan off and told her thanks one last time before I headed to my apartment.

My phone started ringing and I pulled over to check who it was.

One Missed Call: Leo

What the fuck? Why would he call?

I shook my head and continued to drive. I finally arrived home, and took the elevator to floor 7. I opened the door and I was taken back.

Roses and candles covered my apartment. Standing in front of all of them was Leo. The candle light glistened off his light blue eyes. He smiled from ear to ear.

"Surprise!" he yelled. I ran to him and jumped into his arms. As I wrapped my legs around him he dug his head into my neck.

"I love you." he whispered.

"I...I love you too." I whispered back. For the first time since I've ever been with him, I wasn't so sure.

Before I was able to speak again, he lay his lips on mine. I kissed back. It became heated pretty fast, and we ended up making out on my bed somehow.

"I...have...to...get...ready." I said between kisses. He groaned and pulled away.

"Fine, but only because I want to see my girlfriend kick ass." he said, smirking at me. We both laughed.

I took a shower and changed into my Dash uniform and gear. Leo grabbed my cleats and untied them for me. I pecked him on the cheek before tying my shoes.

After I grabbed everything I needed we set off together to the center. I was still unsure why he was here or why he'd been ignoring me, but I was just glad to see him.
