"Amelia" a soft voice was pulling me out of my slumber

"Mm" I turned around and tried to ignore it

"Amelia" I was a little more conscious but wanted to keep sleeping "Amelia" I started opening my eyes slowly without being able to make out my surroundings everything was too bright and I slowly traced my eyes over the whole room finally encountering the dark silhouette that called my name and everything came rushing back to my mind

"Harvey" I rubbed my eyes with my hands trying to recover my vision I sat up on the couch feeling the crinkling fabric of my dress against my skin "I fell asleep" I ran my hands through my hair

"Yeah" he was standing in front of me holding a cup of some sort of hot beverage "I felt bad waking you up"

"I'm sorry" I stood up "I must've been exhausted"

"Don't worry about it" he responded with a warm expression in his eyes

"What time is it?" I started looking for my bag around the living room

"6:30" he extended his arm and handed me my bag from the coffee table behind him

"Shit I'm going to be late for work" I frantically looked for my car keys, if I had to go home and get ready it would take me at least an hour which meant I would be at least 30 minutes late for work

"Don't worry about it" he said and I could barely hear him through my own thoughts and calculations on ways I could save time and not be late for work

"What do you mean?" I looked at him

"I checked with Jessica, she gave everyone the morning off since the party ended pretty late" I exhaled relieved "we just didn't receive the message since we left early so it was basically all your fault"

"Of course, next time I'm just going to leave you and have fun by myself"

"We both know that it is way better when I'm around" he took a sip of his cup and walked away from me

"Alright, this was fun" I put on my shoes "but I'm gonna go now" I walked behind him towards the door

"Won't you stay for breakfast?" he stood behind the kitchen island as he served up two plates with french toast "we have time" he tried to persuade me with a slight smile forming in his lips

"I can't say no to french toast" I left my coat and purse on the sofa and walked over to the kitchen

As the crispy yet soft bread melted inside my mouth I couldn't help but wonder if he did this for other people too. My gut told me he didn't but I still wondered and couldn't help but ask

"Is this what you do?" I stabbed a piece of the toast with my fork and placed it in my mouth

"What do you mean?" he looked at me with a puzzled expression

"Bring a girl home, she spends the night, although probably not like I did and then you cook her breakfast?" I took a sip of the orange juice in the glass in front of me

"First of all you have been here under those circumstances many times before if my memory serves me right so you already know the answer to your own question"

"Good point, in any case this was very nice of you" I said finishing up the last piece of buttery toast

"You're welcome" he was already done so he took my plate and put it in the dishwasher behind him

"I really have to go now" I broke the silence after a few moments and walked over to the front door  "I can't wait to take a shower" 

"You could use one" I shot him a deadly look "right here" he pointed towards the direction of his shower with a side smile slowly appearing as he ended the sentence
