Daveed and I had enjoyed our night with dinner and more movies, but this time I choose them. Daveed also taught me in between the movies a few famous rap lines and how to rap with a beat. I couldn't help but gawk when he rapped, it was one thing when he rapped on stage but it was another when he rapped in person. There was no pressure from the lights or from the thousands of people awaiting his best. It was just me and I could see that he knew that too, he wasn't pressuring himself into it, but he still had passion for it. Even though it was his job and something he practically did everyday I couldn't help but feel flattered when he rapped for me and just for me.

At the end of the night we both went back our separated bedrooms. I wished him good night after I went out of the bathroom finding waiting for me. He smiled at me wishing me a good night as well before he stepped into the bathroom himself. I smiled to myself before entering my room. Entering the room I immediately crawled into the too comfortable bed and then nuzzled my face into the pillow. The comfort that this bed gave me made my mind sink into sleep mode that I forgot about the lights were still turned but before sleep took over me completely the lights were turned off.

  I got out of the bathroom while wrapping my hair in a high pony tail and then I fixed my freshly washed white blouse. Tiredly I yawned even though I had woken up hours ago, mornings weren't too kind to me on week days. Walking into the kitchen I grinned when I caught Daveed devour the crepes I made an hour ago.

"Glad you like it." I giggled, he was sitting on the chair with messy hair and still in his sleeping attire. I grabbed my half finished coffee that was now slightly colder and took a sip watching Daveed finish chewing what he had in his mouth.

"These are amazing." He then moaned out. "You and your food is going to make me gain weight." He then cut to take another bite from it. I leaned against the counter.

"Don't worry, I'm also very good with diet food, not like you will ever need it." I said finishing up my cup. Daveed continued eating till he finished his plate.

"Thank you for the food." Daveed said looking up with sheepish smile.

I chuckled. "I can always make you crepes if you want to." He let out a laugh then tilted his with a small pout on his lips.

"Promise?" I rolled my eyes knowing that he was mocking me but I played along.

"Promise." He then grinned at my response standing up putting his plate in the sink before held out his pinkie finger out for me. I smiled at this and locked my pinkie finger with his. He gave mine a good squeeze his sparkling eyes never leaving mine.

       "What the hell Stuart?" Felicia called out when I entered Oscorp making people turn to the receptionist and I making me frown and walk over to the raven haired woman behind the table.

"And good morning to you too." I said with a raised eyebrow taking out my ID to slide it in. Felicia had a wide smile on her lips then leaned closer putting her chin under her hand. "What is it?"

"Oh don't you play innocent with me." She dangled her pen in front of me. I stared dumbfounded at her. "I know all about you and Mr. Big-Name?"

What?

Did she mean Daveed?

I felt my cheeks go pink thinking about Daveed and a small smile crawled on my lips.

She let out a laugh.

"And you thought you could fool me with your love story about you having feelings for your friends boyfriend."

Wait....what?

My cheeks cooled down and I wasn't sure anymore what Felicia was trying to get on. "And the best part was making me think that he was gay." Then it hit me.
