Mario Selman...My "best friend"

Chapter 8; What happened? //Her p.o.v//

My eyes widened and I felt a presence near me. "Did you sleep well?", I heard a soothing voice whisper. I yawned and opened my eyes and whispered, "What happened? Why does my head hurt? Where am I?", I started questioning and sat up quickly. I stared at him and he was sitting in a chair next to me. I looked down and saw that our hands were interlocked. I felt my cheeks get warm and he then let go of my hand.
"Don't get any wrong ideas, you were half awake and reached out for my hand so I went along with it. Oh and one of my friends bumped into you and you fell face forward next to him. I brought you here to my house and let you rest on my bed", he gently spoke. "O-Oh...what about my mom?", I panicked and searched for my phone. "I told my mom to call her and she was okay with it", he smiled and removed the ice pack I didn't even realize was on my head. I slowly went back under the sheets that smelled just like his jacket. It comforted me and made me feel like I was back in NJ. "Uh, can you-". He got up and walked to the door before I tried finishing my sentence. "Rude", I hissed. He opened the door, looked back made a kissy face and walked away. He's such a tease.
After a few minutes my phone buzzed.
M: Mom     J: Julissa

M: Hey Hun! Come home soon we need to buy your school supplies.
J: On my way.
M: Alright see you later! xoxo ❤️

I walked down the stairs into the kitchen. I saw Mario hovering over the stove and I couldn't help but just stare at him. He turned around so I went up to him and muttered, "I have to go but thanks for everything". It seemed like he was hiding something. He stated, "No problem", and smiled. "Oh and can you drive me home? I don't know my way from here", I shyly spoke. "Yeah of course", He shut off the stove and grabbed his keys off the counter.
