True Love Comes From More Than Just The Heart [Vic Fuentes]

Diamonds And Why Men Buy Them

My phone ringed just when I woke up. I groaned and rolled to my side while Vic’s arm was still around me. I reached for my phone and picked it up without looking at it or even waking up properly.

“Hello?” I answered my phone and rubbed my eyes.

“Did I wake you up? Sorry….wait no I’m not” Cassie said on the other end. Isn’t my best friend nice?

“Cassie, what do you want? It’s fucking…10 in the morning” I mumbled and let myself fall back in the bed. Vic groaned beside me and cuddled himself more to me.

“I have to talk to you” she said and sounded more serious than ever before.

“Did something happen?” I asked and yawned. Vic had his head on my stomach and one arm around it. He was still sleeping really deep and didn’t seem to hear anything from the chatting with Cassie.

“Kinda” she now whispered.

“Is there a specific reason why you’re whispering?” I asked and started to twist Vic’s hair around my index finger.

“Yes” she only said.

“And?”

“What and?”

“What’s the reason why you’re whispering.”

“Oh. Uh. Well. I’m hiding in Tony’s bathroom.”

“Wait you’re still there? So that means…”

“No! No, I…we didn’t do it. We just cuddled practically the whole night.”

“Oh my God!” I shouted a bit too loud and looked at Vic for some seconds to see if I woke him up, but he didn’t move a bit.

“We like…fell asleep on the couch cuddling and I woke up some minutes ago and now I’m hiding in his bathroom to talk to you.”

“And what do you want me to do now?”

“Give me an advice! Like what am I supposed to do now?”

“Just go back and cuddle with him.”

“Are you serious right now?”

“It’s not daily that you can cuddle with Tony Perry, my friend.”

“Jody, be serious!”

“Sorry.”

“I can’t go back there.”

“Why? I mean it’s just cuddling.”

“Yeah but when he wakes up we probably have to talk and I don’t know what to say.”

“Just be yourself, Cassie. That’s the reason why he even asked you out. I mean, he’s really shy so he really had to pull himself together to ask you out and I don’t think that he’s doing that for every girl.” She didn’t answer for some seconds.

“Maybe you’re right. But I still don’t know what to talk about.”

“Like I said, he’s shy so if he wants to talk, he’s probably more nervous than you.”

“But-“

“No.”

“You don’t even know what I was gonna say!”

“I’d have been something like ‘but what if he’s gonna talk about it’ or ‘but what if he says that he likes me or even worse that he doesn’t like me and-‘”

“Okay okay, I got it.”

“Good, now leave that bathroom and go back cuddling with that really handsome and attractive man.” I felt how Vic started to stretch his body and heard him yawn. I wonder if he heard what I said about Tony.
