When we reached my apartment building's parking lot I turned to face Hayden staring at him adoringly, "Thanks for the ride and also for not kidnapping me prince charming" I giggled... Giggling? Prince Charming? Am I that tipsy?
Hayden chuckled and looked at me with amusement sparkling in his eyes, "Anything for my damsel in tipsy distress".
I took his hand in mine and he immediately glanced down at our now entwined hands with curiosity and amusement.
"Well since you asked ever so kindly milady" he said flashing me his swoon worthy smile.
I guided him to my apartment, our hands still entwined, and led him to my couch. He looked so big sitting in my small lounge, looking around and observing his surroundings, locking them into his memory.
I took out two Ben and Jerry's Mint Chocolate Cookie tubs leaving my cookie dough tub for tomorrow morning's hangover and the cake batter just because why not. (don't roll your eyes at me, i'm a proud Ben and Jerry's addict and I don't need help!)

I walked towards him holding the universe's gift to man. " i present to you, Your Royal Highness, the finest ice-cream in the land, which is my fridge, Ben and Jerry's Mint Chocolate Cookie served with toasted waffles!"
I proclaimed to the handsome boy as I curtsied in front of him while giving him his waffle cone filled with B and J's ice-cream. For the second time tonight he genuinely laughed and accepted the ice-cream, "Thank you Milady" he said then unexpectedly kissed my hand to which I smiled shyly probably resembling a cherry red tomato from how much i'm blushing. I sat next to him on the sofa crossed legged with my legs perched up on the sofa next to me. I decided to switch on the TV and ironically the Hangover was playing; we looked at each other and laughed. We continued watching the movie in silence eating our ice-cream and waffles, making comments here and there and laughing at the jokes. It was nice. Somewhere along the movie I rested my head on his chest and he put his left arm around my waist and boy did the man smell soooo gooood (#droolworthy!).
Once the end credits were rolling, I decided to ask him a question. "Hayden what's your story?"
Hayden looked down at me and stared intensely into my eyes as if deciding whether to tell me or not.
"Well, I'm 25 years old and an only child. You already know i'm single. I work for my mom. My dad... he uh... he left my mom when I was about 13 years old. He took everything, the house, the money; he left us with nothing..." My heart clenched as Hayden told me his story. His eyes were getting misty from all the memories that were flooding back into his mind. Turns out pretty boy and I had something in common... lack of good father figures.
"we ended up moving in with my mom's bestfriend, Aunt Catherine who later got married and had another daughter, Ella who is like the closest thing i have to a sister . Anyway my mom started her own business from scratch from her savings and my trust fund that I allowed her to use. She is one of the most strongest, generous, loving and hard working woman I know and I love her so much..." he chocked then cleared his throat and asked, "Uhm... what about you? You barely mentioned your dad..." he said curiousity playing in his eyes which was soon replaced with worry as he witnessed a tear fall down my cheek at the mention of that title that he does not deserve; not after... I quickly swiped away the tear and switched of the TV and contemplated whether I should tell him. I turned to face him , looking at him square in the eyes and said "He's dead."
