I woke up early and felt arms wrapped around me. I opened my eyes and came face to face to a strong built chest. I gasped in surprise, i wasn't expecting to see that as soon as i opened my eyes. Antonio made some noises and tightened his grip around me and said "go back to seep"

I tried to wiggle out of his grip but he held on strong. I sighed "Antonio wake up"

I mumbled some but didn't wake up, i hit his chest and he didn't move, i kept hitting his chest until he flipped us over so he was laying on top of me,he grabbed my hands and pinned them above my head and said "i'm awake"

My breath hitched in my throat because of the position we were in, i closed my eyes and let out a breath. I opened my eyes and was met with his brown eyes burning into mine. I wiggled and he got the picture, he got off of me and whispered a sorry. I nodded "it's okay"

He grabbed his shirt and put it on "hungry?"

I shook my head but my stomach growled giving him the real answer. He smiled "i guess that's a yes"

He pulled me up off the bed and i stumbled into his chest a little, he put his hands on my waist to steady me. "You okay?"

I nodded and looked down "yeah" i whispered

He moved his hands off of my waist and grabbed my hand, pulled me downstairs and we both got into his car. I sat in my seat and looked out the window, i kept replaying the events that happened last night in my head.

"Where do you want to eat?"

I shrugged my shoulders " it doesn't matter" i kept looking out the window

He grabbed my hand squeezed it a little, i looked over at him. He was driving and looking out the window and driving while holding my hand. I looked out of mine and kept holding his hand. We pulled into the parking lot and hopped out. We walked into the building and the hostess took us to our seats. We sat down in the booth, started to look at the menus, we both picked out something and set our menus down waiting for the waitress to come and take out orders. I started playing with my hands because i was nervous. Yesterday there were a lot of emotional things said and a lot of crying and i was embarrassed at myself for acting out of character like that in front of a stranger, a completely HOT stranger that is only trying to help.It's hard to break old habits. I'm not use to people helping me and being nice to me for no reason..heck at all in fact. The waitress came and she looked at Antonio "what can i get for you sir?"

He looked at her " I'll take a coffee, black, a croissant, thank you"

She smiled at him and turned to walk away but Antonio stopped her "excuse me"

She turned back and smiled "yes sir?"

He looked at me "you forgot to take her order"

She looked at me with a shocked expression "umm i'm sorry, what would you like?"

I looked at her facial features "I'll take 2 scrambled eggs and toast please"

She nodded and walked away. My fingers once again had my attention focused on them. I could feel Antonio's gaze on me, i looked up not to be rude. We made eye contact, he looked deep in thought. I lifted my head up more to look at him better "what are you thinking about?"

He blinked and looked away from me "nothing just work"

I nodded "after this are we going back to your house?"

"You know..it's kind of your house also"

"I didn't buy it, i don't pay bills, i do nothing to help contribute, it's not my house..it's your house"
