It's been an unbearable days since i last kissed Shawn. We've been texting each other non stop ever since. I feel like a kid high on sugar every time he came across my mine, it's like beautiful butterflies flying around my stomach. I know that it is too soon to say it, but i really hope that there's a damn in his mind that he does too.

Today, he invited me to come to his place, to hang out with his roommates. He said that Camilla is going to cook us some traditional food she used to made in Cuba. Claiming that her food is the best, without a doubt i said yes to his offer. I've only been to his house once, when all the mess happened. Usually normal people wouldn't want to go to a place twice if they have a bad embarrassing memories there, but being the stupid woman i am, i am more than happy to come to his place.

By 5 o'clock in the evening, i'm already driving my car to his place. He insisted on picking me up, saying that he would like to meet me as soon as possible. His words were cheesy, but it was enough to make me giggling sillily. I refused it though and joke that it was because i wanted to torture him. I was just being understanding and polite, he doesn't need to come and pick me up when i am only going to his house.

I always like driving and being alone in the car. It's like i can have my alone time for a while. Listening to whatever music i like and singing to it without the fear of being judged. can you relate?

It's not long until i see the familiar street of his block. I park my red mini cooper three houses before his and unplug my phone from the aux cable. As i step outside from my car, i tuck a loose white cardigan over my short denim jumpsuit and walk to the house. I ring the doorbell when i reach the front door and i am immediately greeted by Charlie.

"Hey, come on in!" Charlie opens the door wider for me to enter. "Shawn and Cam is in the kitchen, you can help if you want" he says to me as he takes another sip of the soda he's holding. His figure does towered over my small body. His eyes looks tired but calm. I couldn't help myself but feels a bit intimidated by him.

I nod politely and take my slip ons off before placing it on the shoe rack. He leaves me and make his way back to the living room with a television that's already turned on. The house smells so good from all the cooking in the kitchen. I did have lunch after i finished my shift in Zara, but it was just a sandwich, so right now my tummy is more than prepared for another round of a meal.

I head to the kitchen and spot Shawn and Camila cooking there. Camila is stirring on a pan, while Shawn is chopping some vegetables in the kitchen counter. They do not seem to notice my presence as they are all too busy with what they're doing. I clear my throat intentionally to catch their attention and they both turn their face around to see me. Camila scampers straightaway to me making her red tent dress bounces a little and spread her hands widely for a hug.

"It feels good to have another woman in this house" she jokes as she wraps her hand around my body. She smells like cherry and peppermint, sweet as always. Shawn, following behind her, also leans in for a hug. He kisses me after i release the hug. I was caught off guard when he does that, but his lips brushing through mine softly is like a feeling that will always give me goosebumps.

"Hey, glad you can make it" He says it casually as if what he just did was normal. Being the shy girl that i am, i can only smile and redden my cheeks. I can never be that girl who always know what to say or what to do. When i'm around him i know that i'm excited but he makes my heart pounding so fast, it won't stop. What he's doing to me is out of my control.

"What can i help?" i say to them trying to ignore my feelings.

"well, you can prepare the table" Camila replies and walk back to the kitchen.

"yeah, sure" i nod my head and do as she said.

After an hour goes by, we are all doing our own task while talking and joking to each other. Later at that time, Charlie also joins in helping Camila to decorate the plating. Shawn wasn't joking when he said that Camila was a great cook, the foods really smell good, making every water in my mouth drooling and craving.
