Mine

Chapter Thirty Four

"Well good morning sleepy head." I peek open my eyes and see Terezi staring at me with a big smile.

"You know if I didn't have Strider reflexes I might have screamed or something."

"Well good thing you didn't. Now come on I got breakfast and I'm not waiting any longer."

"You got breakfast?" I sit up rubbing my eyes and Terezi is already heading back into the living room when my eyes finally feel clear.

"Of course I did. I'm your friend I'm not going to let you starve."

"Well thanks." I follow her into the living room and see she has ordered breakfast. She hands me a plate and I sit on the couch with her as she turns on the TV. She looks like she's changed, and her short dark hair has been tied in a bun on the top of her head. Her hair also looks wet. "Did you shower here?"

"Yup."

"What did you use?"

"You never used the hotel shampoo and wash, so I did. It's not my usual, but I think it's good enough."

"What time is it? How long have you been up?"

"Well it's eleven thirty something, which is the latest breakfast time I could order. And I've been up since nine thirty. Do you always sleep so late?"

"I could sleep for days actually."

"I bet." Terezi sets her finished plate down. For the next few minutes we're silent as I eat. I wonder what we're going to do today, or if she's going to leave soon. I hope she doesn't. I'll even leave the apartment and explore Hollywood if she wants as long as she stays with me. I feel so relaxed with her. I glance at her and find Terezi looking just as relaxed as me. Maybe we really could be a couple in the future. I finish my breakfast and set the empty plate down before standing up and stretching.

"I'm going to shower and brush my teeth, are you still going to be here when I'm done?"

"Sure, that is if you want to spend the day with me."

"I'd love to actually." Terezi smiles and goes back to watching TV while I head to the bathroom. I don't remember cleaning up the bathroom when I cleaned up the rest of the hotel room. I open the bathroom door and see that I didn't clean up the bathroom. I have a small pile of clothes in one corner and the sink is pretty messy. Great, I bet Terezi thinks I'm a slob now. I clean up the bathroom before showering and brushing my teeth. I spend an extra few minutes fixing my hair in front of the mirror. I didn't even comb my hair when she came over yesterday. I can't believe I let myself be such a mess in front of her, but she didn't seem to mind.

I leave the bathroom and put on the red tank top and white shorts I had picked the day before. Then I head back out to the living room. "Sorry the bathroom was a mess. I wasn't expecting you to stay the night."

"It's fine Dave. You should see my house. Compared to that your neat." I laugh with her and then sit on the couch next to her. I'm aware of her checking me out, and I'm kind of glad she is. I must have picked the right outfit.

"So, what are we going to do today."

"Well it's up to you. What ever you feel like doing." Terezi responds.

"I honestly don't care as long as you stick around." Terezi glances over at me and my cheeks heat up at my admission.

"That's cute."

"I'm just the cutest." Terezi giggles and reaches for the remote.

"You are, so let's go out and show you off." She clicks off the TV and stands up. "Wanna go to the beach?"
