The phone call that changed my life

First night

"Is it that the reason why you came here?"

"Well yeah. I couldn't handle it anymore. I was living with a girl I didn't love, in the band everyone was happy but me, the tour stressed me out so I literally freaked out. I went back home in England, I talked with management and I broke up officially with Perrie. I remember I asked myself why I didn't do it earlier. I bought a new house closed to the guys. I needed a break from everything so management decided to say I quit the band. It's not true though, I never did that. They just did it to help me but I still have to say I'm not in the band anymore"

"Why did they want to say something like that?" I asked confused.

"They thought that after the break up with Perrie it could be a good opportunity to give me some time off. You know, the guy with a broken heart"

"Right"

"So I decided to leave for a while, go on vacation. I chose a place where I knew not a lot of people were going to recognize me so I came here" he said looking at me.

"And then you came into my life, you were what I was waiting for" he added smiling then he kissed me softly.

"Why were you so rude the first day?"

"Rude?"

"Yeah, you were really rude"

"I behave like that since when I started to be famous. It's the only way to keep away everyone, to have my privacy"

I never thought about it. I can't even imagine his life.

"I thought it was nice being famous"

"It is actually but it's really hard"

"So you push everyone away"

"Yes, that behavior works every time. It keeps away false people, persons who want to hang out with me because of my fame or 'cause they think I'm going to pay for everyone"

"And why aren't you behaving like that with me anymore?"

"Because you have struck me down. I've never felt like this, I've never been in love"

"In...in love?" I asked him stuttering. Is he saying he's in love with me?

"Yes, I'm in love with you Marta. It's the very first time" I smiled at him and I kissed him.

We didn't want to pull away, we needed each other.

"Stay here tonight, please" he told me. I looked at him in a weird way, I didn't know if I was ready to...

"We're not going to do anything, I promise" he added and how could I have said no?

"Alright" I replied smiling. I looked at his watch, it was almost midnight. We talked for hours! So I stood up, I took his hand and I walked into the bedroom.

"Can I borrow a t-shirt please?" I asked him. I turned around to look at him and I blushed when he took off his shirt. Marta don't think about it. Think about something else: chocolate, mom, USA, Gucci, chair, music, scho...

"Are you ok?" he said worried.

"Ehm, yeah" I said clearing my voice.

"Why did you take off you t-shirt?" I added blushing.

"Because I sleep without one on" he said smiling.

"Ah" I told him trying to not jump on him.

"Here, you can use this one. It's going to be big though" he said giving me his t-shirt. I walked into the restroom and I quickly changed. Then I walked towards him on the bed, under the blanket. He was looking at his phone but when he saw me he put it away.
