I never knew bliss could be so simple. I never knew that I could feel so happy, comfortable and warm by doing absolutely nothing. Sure, I'd always heard that the simplest things in life are the best were the best but I could never say that I believed it. Not until now that is. I looked up at Jayden who was lying beside me. His eyes were closed, his plush lips in a soft line, and his facial muscles relaxed. One of his hands was behind his head while the other was wrapped around me. I would have thought he was sleeping if I didn't see his eyes fluttering open the slightest bit to open before closing again. We were lying on my bed, listening to music. No one was home today so I was comfortable with having him here and snuggling close to him. Besides, then I could blast my country music as loud as I wanted.

"I like this song," Jayden mused as "Somebody's Heartbreak" by Hunter Hayes blasted from my speakers. The song's soft second verse was on now and I tried to restrain myself from humming along. "It reminds me of you," he said. I raised an eyebrow up at him. He opened one eye and looked down at me. His tiny smile arose on his lips. Before I could say anything, he leaned down to peck my lips. "Don't worry, it's a good thing," he whispered.

"Oh I wasn't worried," I teased with a cocky grin. "I'm just surprised you actually like a song after all that shit you talked about country music earlier." He rolled his eyes at me. When he first came over and heard my country music, he started making fun of it. He told me that Spanish artists were better as well as R&B. Then he told me that country music sucked and called me a cowboy. Although I knew he was somewhat teasing, I still pretended to get mad and chased him around my room. It was funny since he knew I couldn't beat him yet he was dodging me as if I could. I liked playing around with him though. It was fun – more fun than I expected.

"Oh it still sucks, trust me. I just like this song." I made air quotes with my fingers.

"Whatever you say." I slowly got up causing Jayden to open both of his eyes. His face started to fall as I left his embrace and got off the bed.

"Where are you going," he asked.

"Gonna get my iPod. I think I have some more songs that you might like," I said as I continued walking to my desk. I picked my iPod up carefully to make sure the cord connecting it to the speakers didn't come out and began to skim through my albums. I finally found Hunter Hayes' first album and flipped on "Cry With You". I turned towards Jayden as the song began to play. He was staring at me, his emerald eyes a bit curious. As he noticed the new song playing, I saw his eyes grow distant as he put his mind towards listening to the words. "This one makes me think of you," I told him, blushing a bit.

"I don't cry," Jayden said, smirking teasingly. "So, therefore this song is irrelevant to me."

"Shut up," I said although a smile had crept up my face. I turned back to the iPod to put "Wanted" on. I didn't turn towards Jayden this time to see his reaction. I really liked the song so I stood there for a moment, letting the sweet chords run through my ears. I noticed Jayden was a bit too quiet back there so I took a step to turn but I felt my body back into his. I blushed deeply as he wrapped his arms around my torso and pull me closer. Damn he was so warm... My hands moved to grab his, giving them a soft squeeze. Jayden chuckled softly before he turned me around so that we could be face-to-face. I looked up at his perfectly sculpted face to see his emerald eyes staring down at me. I will admit that I was still getting used to not having him glaring at me all the time or seeing his eyes so soft. Don't get me wrong, I liked seeing the softer, nicer side of him but I just wasn't quite used to it yet. We had only seriously gotten together the night before. I'm surprised that we're already acting as if we'd been together for a while. I had thought that Jayden was going to take things slow for me since I'd never exactly been in a relationship with a guy before. But then again, technically he was taking it slow. He didn't really seductively touch me or let our kisses get out of hand or any of that. Instead, he's just been holding me and giving me tender kisses and making me feel comfortable. I wish I could say that he was doing the same thing the night before but he wasn't. But, the night before was different. We were both fed up with our feelings in a way and we just let them out. We didn't have sex but a nice bit of our clothes did come off as did our hands roam freely. Jayden stopped it though. He told me that we didn't have to get serious so quickly. He promised that we could take things slow and figure out what we were going to do with whatever was going on between us.
