"Hey." I greeted him with Ash's guitar in my arms, ready for my first lesson with Martin. I'm not going lie but I was shaking so bad and Ash had to literally stop me from hyperventilating. It definitely hasn't worn off yet, but it is better than before.

"Hey you." He greets me back with the award winning smile plastered on his face. "Ready to kick off our first guitar lesson?"

"Yep, got my guitar all ready." I pat Ash's guitar.

"Never thought I'd be giving someone guitar lessons." He jokes, still busying himself to clean up his area. "If you don't mind, I was thinking if we head off somewhere else instead?"

Now this is where I should start to freak out and think twice of my life decisions. I should really try to think things out and carefully pick out my answer to have me not end up following someone who could potentially turn out to be anything but a sane person home. However, somehow, my heart says the other.

"Oh no, not at all. Where do you suggest?"

Yeah, he's too precious for me to run away from. Besides, I was mentally jumping up and down. I actually wanted both of us to have a more private area.

I know, I'm the creepy one.

"Are you alright with my house? I kind of have two little monkeys to keep my eyes on while my dad's at work." He suggests, rubbing the nape of his neck as if he was embarrassed.

"I don't mind at all." I reassured him, giving him my not up to his gorgeous smile.

"Great. Here follow me. It's not very far from here, just about 10 minutes' walk." He says as he picks up his now packed items and starts walking.

I quietly follow him behind his tracks and instantly start to question my height and the length of my leg. I'm only 5'3 compared to his way much taller figure and here I am struggling to keep up with him. I have to make bigger strides or even sometimes jog up with him, which is then he realized the struggle I was going through and kindly slowed down his pace for me.

It wasn't long until we step into a town full of small houses and kids running around their front yard. I didn't question but instead continue to follow him quietly till he reaches the porch of his house.

Before unlocking the door with his keys that he's reached out from the back of his pockets, he turns to me.

"Sorry if this isn't what you're expecting, but do make yourself comfortable." He smiles shyly before turning back to unlock his door.

"Patricia! Arthur!" He calls out once he steps into the house with me strolling in right behind him.

Instantly, two little kids in their pyjamas came running down the stairs and into the open arms of their older brother.

"I hope you two have been behaving yourselves for the past 15 minutes." He says as he rubs his nose against both their noses, causing them to break into small cute giggles. Getting to see the sight of that warms my heart and instantly makes him 10 times more adorable.
